Chapter 2
What's going on?
Chad made his way into the store in a pessimistic fog. He grabbed a cart and began his shopping. In the back of the store he found the dairy products he was looking for, along with a girl about his age, who stood about 5'3". She was beautiful, in a plain kind of way. He took in her long dark hair, and her mesmerizing brown eyes, her small petite body added to her beauty, he thought. He wanted so badly to ask a name, maybe ask her to dinner, but he found a supermarket pick up would come off as cheap.
"Excuse me, but do you know where I can find paper towels?" She asked him, twirling her hair in a flirty manor. He jumped out of his daze. Taking in her essence.
"Uh, yeah. I could show you if you like." He replied. She is beautiful, He thought. She accepted and followed him to the other end of the store, where she then found the paper towels of her choice, grabbing them and having the display fall to the floor. She chuckled
nervously.
"Oh my gosh!" She laughed nervously, "That never usually happens, only when I'm nervous I'm a total klutz, not that I'm nervous or anything" She tucked her hair behind her ear in a cute way, and Chad bent down to help her fix up the display.
"I thought it was cute." Chad smiled lightly, making eye contact with her. She looked back, and then she averted her eyes away in a nervous fashion.
"So can I ask your name?" Chad asked the girl, as they finished up the display.
"Um, my name is Sonny. And yours?" She asked sweetly.
"Hmm, Sonmy that name suits you ." He said reaching out his hand to help her stand up again. But, he didn't let go once she was standing, instead, he lifted her hand to his mouth, pressing his lips against it.
"Well, Sonny, It's been nice meeting you." He smirked, releasing her hand. Then turning to walk away.
"Wait." He heard her say, so he turned back. "I didn't get your name." She reminded him.
"Ah, how rude of me. I apologize. My name is Chad." Sonny was dazzled by the strange bluesheen in his eyes. She wanted so badly to touch him again.
"Well, Chad, thank you for showing me where the towel papers were." She smiled.
"No, trouble at all." Chad replied with a smile. Just then they both heard a loud sound come from the front of the store. Chad moved in front of Sonny, he recognized that sound. He heard it on news, but never in his life did he think he would hear it right before his eyes. Someone in here had a gun, and was definitely using it.
"What was that?" She whispered.
"A gunshot." Chad replied, he felt Sonny cringe behind him. They made their way down the aisle, and peered around the corner, to see that the one of the store clerks had been shot dead, the smell of blood now held presence in the store. The rest of the clerks were being tied together, and sat in chairs. Chad got a good look at the murderer, as did Sonny.
"We have to hide." Was all Chad could muster.
"Where?" Sonny asked, clinging to Chad for support as her head began to spin from the smell of blood.
"Let's try the back." Chad said, finding the swaying plastic door to the loading dock. They quietly made their way into the large concrete room, surrounded by bulk packages of groceries. Chad knew better than to be found by the robber. He would keep Sonny and himself safe as long as he possibly could.
Sonny sat against the wall, with her knees hugged to her chest. She was panicking like no other. She felt Chad sit beside her. Her tears were falling hard now, and Chad wiped them away.
"It's going to be okay, Sonny." He said, wrapping his arm around her
waist and slowly rocking her back and forth.
Sonny found his gestures soothing, and eventually she passed out. Chad stayed alert throughout the night, as Sonny slept. Her head rested on his shoulder, but he in no way minded. She was cute when she slept.
What are the odds? He thought to himself. In some weird way this had to be fate. Sonny woke up then, her eyes opening, and then realizing she was practically laying on Chads chest, she apologized. Then noticing that Chads coat was strewn across her. That simple gesture made her heart melt with kindness.
"Oh, I'm sorry." She said moving away.
"It's alright." Chad smiled. "You hungry?" He asked her.
"A little." She replied, remembering everything that had happened yesterday afternoon. She watched as Chad ripped into a bundle of toaster pastries, She smirked to herself.
"Strawberry or blueberry?" He asked opening a box.
"Surprise me." She laughed, standing up. Chad handed her a package of blueberry toaster pastries. She opened them and Chad pointed her in he direction of the break room.
Chad made his way towards the back of the dairy fridges; he slowly and quietly slid a gallon of milk out of the fridge. He brought it to the break room and poured each of them a glass.
"Thank you for breakfast." Sonny smiled, taking a sip of her milk.
"Thank you for keeping me company." He smiled back.
