Me: I know, I know, I know. I should be updating A Mermaid Tale or even Every Rose Has Its Thorn. But I went on a music fest on YouTube and I remembered this awesome song and video so I just had to write a fic about it! I loved the music video and I just had to write about it! Sorry for starting a whole new fic on you guys…
May: I'm going to really like this story! Heh heh heh!
Me: ON WITH THE FIC!
May's POV:
I changed the gearshift to park and I turned to the mirror.
I checked over my make-up and made sure nothing was smudged or out of place…so far so good.
"May hurry up already! I'm dying to get in! We haven't done anything like this in a long while…" I heard from the backseat.
I laughed a little, she was right.
"I know Leaf, our stupid jobs and all that serious crap. I'm glad we're doing something like this instead of what we usually do…should turn out for an interesting night. Oh and your headband is sort of out of place." I told one of my best friends.
She immediately took out a compact mirror from her silver clutch and began to arrange her dark brown hair.
"How do I look?" she asked turning to her right at another one of our friends, Dawn Berlitz.
"You look fine!" she replied while grooming her own long navy blue hair.
"I swear the more time I spend with you guys the more I worry about my sanity." Misty replied from the passenger's seat. She was fixing her blue halter top that we managed to convince her to wear. It went really great with her bright orange hair and cerulean blue eyes.
"Keep saying that and you won't have a ride." I teased her. Being the only one with a driver's license since the others hadn't taken their driver's test yet has its perks.
"Two more months May! That's when that threat expires!" Misty grumbled back.
"Whatever, I still win!" I replied with a goofy grin.
"Can we just go already?" Dawn asked getting impatient with our banter.
"Sure, I'm not holding you back." I said, and then we all got out of my car.
We were in front of a deli, it was actually kind of funny if a stranger passed and saw us in front of it. We were all decked out with club outfits, all sparkly and pretty and we were in front of a plain old deli.
"Are you sure this is the place May?" Leaf asked me.
"I'm sure; these are the directions that they gave me." I replied.
"We'll never find out until we get inside." Misty said, and with that she entered. We all just followed suit.
When we got inside a small bell dinged from the door, the inside looked just like the outside. Plain and boring. I was starting to have my doubts.
"Welcome to the General's Deli, what can I get you?" a worker from the counter said. I turned to look at him.
What was surprising was that he wasn't some middle aged man in charge of the store, he was our age. So like twenty one.
He had messily styled green hair and mischievous green eyes to match. I think this is our guy.
I walked up to the counter and produced a giant amount of cash from my purse. I calmly slid it across the surface of the counter and told him our orders.
"We'll take four number sevens."
He grinned. "Excellent." He replied.
Instead of turning around to make sandwiches he reached under the counter and grabbed some butcher paper. He then started to wrap the money with it and then handed it to me.
"Anything else?" he asked with a wink.
"Yeah, a couple of those." I said pointing to the small refrigerator behind him. He reached inside and grabbed four red bulls, god knows this'll be a long night…
"That's it." I replied when he handed the energy drinks over.
"Last door on the right." He said while pointing at said door.
The girls followed me and one of the other workers opened the door for us and let us in, this worker had brownish auburn hair and a mischievous grin. As soon as he opened the door loud sound waves pumped out and cheers of people could be heard. Yup, this was going to be a long night.
Drew's POV:
"Hey Drew, are those the last ones we're letting in?" One of my best friends Gary asked while closing the door behind our latest customers.
"Yeah, I think so." I replied sounding a bit distracted. That brunette was still on my mind.
"Hello? Earth to Drew?" Another one of my best friends Ash asked while waving one of his hands in front of my face. Once I got my thoughts in order I waved his hand away.
"What's on your mind?" Paul asked while coming from the back room of the deli.
"Nothing. It's just that…didn't that group of girls seem different to you?" I asked my friends.
"Other than the fact that they're especially hot?" Gary asked with a grin.
"Not what I meant." I replied with a frown. "When people order a number seven they usually look behind their backs or act kind of nervous. This girl was confident, too confident." I continued.
"Maybe they do stuff like this often? I don't know. Let's just enjoy tonight." Gary said.
I nodded in agreement; the stress must've gotten to me. Let's just enjoy tonight.
We all walked to the door that the previous group went through earlier. The door revealed a long staircase with music pumping from the end, different colored lights were flashing and tons of people could be heard. I grinned, this was my element.
Along the walls of the staircase were hooks with different accessories, sunglasses, scarves and some jackets. My friends and I ripped off our white deli uniforms and started to put on our accessories, I grabbed a dark brown leather jacket and some sunglasses. Gary chose a plaid scarf and a beanie. Ash took a varsity jacket and Paul put on a loose tie and a fedora. We were ready to roll.
We walked downstairs and took in the scene, people were dancing on the dance floor, gambling on dice, playing pool, drinking at the bar, or hooking up with someone. Tonight was going to be a very profitable night.
My friends and I split into our stations, Gary headed to the dance floor, Paul manned the bar, Ash took over the pool tables and I went to the gambling area. Oh yeah tonight was going to be very profitable.
I looked around at the people who were at the gambling table, and that's when I spotted her. The brunette from earlier. This was going to be interesting…
"So is this your first time here?" I asked.
She looked at me with interest. "Yeah, it's my first time doing anything like this." She said while gesturing her hands at the table.
"Well then, it's lucky that you met me. Let me give you the grand tour." I said with a smirk. I extended my arm out to her and she looped her arm around it. We started heading to the dance floor.
"This is the dance floor, but you could've already guessed that. See that brownish auburn headed guy with the jade eyes dancing over there? That's my friend Gary; he's sort of the one in charge of the dance area." I announced.
The girl looked at Gary and his dance partner with interest. "That's my friend Leaf dancing with him, the one with the long dark brown hair and green eyes." She noted.
"That's weird, he usually dances alone. He must like her." I replied with an amused grin. "Want to go bother them?" I asked, ready to tease Gary without mercy.
"Nah, I'd rather finish our tour." She said while smiling at me. I couldn't help but smile back, her smile was contagious.
"Let's continue to the bar then." I said while leading her towards said location.
"Whoa, that is one fancy bar!" she exclaimed.
I chuckled, "Nothing but the best for our underground club." I said with pride. She looked kind of uncomfortable when I mentioned the underground club.
"Don't tell me you're a good girl? It wouldn't make sense if you're here then!" I teased.
She suddenly became a whole lot more confident and comfortable, "Please, this is just my first time going to someplace like this. I am not a good girl." She replied.
"Wanna prove it?" I dared.
"Bring it on!" she challenged.
I walked over to Paul, "Hey Paul! Give me a round of shots! For me and...what's your name? " I ordered/ asked.
"May Maple." She replied.
"Wow, I have a lot of friends with trees for last names… May Maple, Gary Oak, Brenden Birch. God…" I said. She giggled.
"Here are your shots Drew." Paul grunted while handing over a brown tray with ten shots. Suddenly a girl with long navy blue hair came up to May.
"May what are you thinking! You're the one that's driving us home! You can't drink!" the blue haired girl exclaimed.
"Sorry Drew, Dawn's right. I can't drink." May said looking disappointed.
"Seems like such a waste to not have competition…" My friend Ash said while putting an arm around my shoulders.
"I'll have a competition with you Ash." A new voice said while I was shoving Ash's arm off of me.
"You're on Misty!" Ash said while grabbing the tray full of shots. I seriously wanna see how this turns out.
We all went to an empty table by the bar and watched on as the battle begun.
Misty and Ash had a stare down before they brought to their lips the first shot.
"Ready, set, GO!" May yelled and both downed their drinks.
There wasn't any pause before both grabbed the next shot and drank it in one gulp, the same with the third and the fourth but both had a little trouble when trying to drink the last shot. Ash looked a little tipsy and Misty seemed a little out of it, but Misty sucked it up and downed the last shot.
May raised Misty's arm in the air and said, "Ding ding ding we have a winner!"
The rest of the night was a blur of playing pool, gambling, and dancing. I have never had a more fun night…So I was kind of upset when they had to leave.
"Aw come on May, do you really have to leave?" I pleaded/asked.
"I kind of do…I'll come tomorrow if you want me to…" She said with a smile. I really shouldn't be getting attached but…she was going to be the death of me…
"I'll be waiting!" I replied with a grin of my own. And with that she left with her friends…
May's POV:
"I think we got all the evidence we need." Leaf said as soon as we were out of the deli.
"Did anybody take pictures or take recordings?" I asked.
Everybody shook their heads.
"I guess we were having so much fun we forgot about our mission…" Dawn said.
"Well tomorrow we're coming, and we're collecting evidence." I said with a determined tone in my voice.
"You sure you're not going to be too busy with Drew?" Misty teased.
"Please, my 'infatuation' with Drew is strictly a cover. I'm only acting that way so we could more information!" I scoffed. I may have looked confident of my answer on the outside, but on the inside I wasn't so sure. Maybe I have fallen for him. That is not good! Strictly professional May, remember that! I am screwed…
To be continued…
Me: Crap! I just started a new fic! I'm the screwed one, how am I going to keep track of updating! I'll figure out some way… expect an update later today or tomorrow guys for my other stories…Bye!
