So.. I once again lost my muse for My Momma said... Oh well. So here's another story! Hopefully, this one is good lol. Enjoy! - JasZ
Christopher Halliwell stares at his long time friend, Isadora Campos, who is seated across from him. It's been a long while since he's seen her. Yet it seems as time hasn't taken a toll on the young woman. She still looks the same as if time never passed. Long raven locks that reflects the sunlight; hazel eyes that will lure just about anyone. Full lips: that always houses a smile with the company of dimples at the end. A small nose: that crinkles when she teases him about his cologne. His best friend over fourteen years unfortunately she drifted to being a mere friend.
Sure it's his fault for pushing her away after hooking up with Bianca. She did try to catch up with him, and he always declined her offers. Now four years after his break with Bianca he's trying to reconnect with someone important in his life. She impacted it as much as his family impacted the supernatural world.
"So out of curiosity… Why now out of four years of no contact?" Her accented voice questions as she toys with her straw.
"I'm sorry about that, Dora. I know I've been a bad friend…" He whispers knowing the look of disapprove on her face. "I just got caught up with all the-" He couldn't bring himself to finish the sentence.
"Hm..." She hums while taking a sip of her lemon ice tea. "Don't get me wrong, Chris. It's great to be seated across from you after a long break. But I'm a little hesitant about you coming back."
"Understandable." He mumbles, eyeing her as she brushes a stray lock, her fingernails painted the color of sea green. The color complements tan her complexion.
There's a long pregnant pause that settles awkwardly at their table. Isadora toys with the straw once again. Her mind drifting to the last time they spoke. It wasn't the best way to part ways but it was the last straw for her. Always being pushed away when she's been there for most of his life and for a girl that: might or might not have stayed in his life long enough. The argument was bad and boundaries where overstepped. It ended with Isadora punching him and storming out. Wyatt of course attempted to calm her down. But the blond couldn't do much with the woman. Junior also lured her out of her little rut but it ended with them getting drunk.
"Are you going to Junior's later?" Isadora idly asks, hazel eyes meet green ones.
"Might as well. Haven't been to a gathering in a long time; should be a great excuse to go out. Are they still any fun?" He replies eyeing the look she has on her face.
"Juny knows how to get down. I just wish he wasn't so vocal about his advancement with Nora."
"Nora?" Chris mumbles not knowing who the woman is.
"Nora, as in Leonora, my sister." Isadora rolls her eyes at the man. "I know your getting old but dang, Chris. This takes the cake."
"I'm a few years older then you, Dora."
"Exactly, moron." She offers him a teasing smile. A smile he now realizes that he missed.
"So did you ever get into that program you wanted?" Chris changes the subject.
"Which program would that be?" Their waiter finally arrives with their meals. Both thank the young man, who seems to be smitten with Isadora.
"Wasn't it teaching?" This earns him a snort. "That isn't very lady like, Dora."
"I can be what I want whenever I want." She sasses back.
"How long are you in town for?" He chants as he cuts his steak.
"Kicking me out already? Shame on you." Isadora waggles her finger at. "In all seriousness a while; Papa asked me to transfer here. Stating that Mama wasn't improving." She releases a sigh, while putting her fork and knife down.
"I'm sorry to hear that. I know our parents have been friends for a long time."
Isadora was about to retort something when a phone chimes. Pulling her purse from her side; she quickly pulls it out and checks who is calling. A smile, that only shined for him is plastered on her face, excusing herself she answers the phone.
"Hello stranger," She greets the person on the other line.
Let me know what you guys think! And who is on the other line with Isadora? I wonder who started the fight! - JasZ
