The clanks of forks and small chatter filled the little room. Busy with their platter, the pair of girls hardly spoke a word.

In time, the first to speak would be the beauty in blue.

"It's been a while, hasn't it?" asked Blue.

The blonde looked at her questioningly.

"The two of us, eating together without anyone else tagging along."

She smiled sweetly toward her younger sibling. "I missed it."

The blonde nodded and swallowed a glass of water.

"Yeah, we've been busy with the wedding and all. It's getting really close, huh?"

"Mhm."

"How have you been, Blue?" asked the younger girl.

"Stressed. I keep thinking I'll run out of time."

"Oh," mouthed Yellow, "anything else? You only have a month left until...you know."

The brunette chuckled.

"Actually no, I can't wait. I'm so excited that I can't sleep sometimes and next thing you know it's a new day, another day closer and I'll finally be married!"

Yellow smiled at her sister happily, but inwardly she felt a little hurt.

"What about you? I haven't spoken to you in a while? How are you holding up with the new clients and jobs?"

"Stressful. I keep thinking I'll run out of time," responded Yellow.

They both laugh lightly at each other.

"We're so alike."

"We're sisters."

And they laughed again.

After a few more topics, both girls finished their plates. Taking up the bill, Blue treated Yellow for the meal in apology for not keeping in touch.

As they make their way out, they decide to window shop for the next couple blocks down for things that could be used for the wedding.

Inwardly, Yellow couldn't be any happier spending her time with her beloved sister, but a part of her still felt miserable and sick of her own jealousy.

They saw many cute items that could be used for counterpieces. She wanted them for her own wedding, she wanted to be the one buying them, she wanted to be the bride.

But she could never let that show, ever, not if it meant hurting Blue.

So she let herself bleed inwardly as she clawed at her heart to sustain her jealousy.

"Yellow?"

"Hm?" she perked her head up at the sound of Blue's voice.

"Are you okay?"

"Yeah, why wouldn't I be?" she automatically replied.

Blue frowned.

"You don't look very good, not since this morning. Is it about Green?"

Yellow suddenly remembered her other problem now that Blue mentioned him.

"..." nothing was said as Yellow could not lie anymore to her.

"I'm sorry, I should have told you way beforehand, but it was unexpected when he actually showed up. We invited him a while back and he said he'd come and initially planned to stay with Red. The plan fell through with him coming late and oddly earlier than expected. Since I moved in with Red, he was searching for another place to stay so I offered my old room. I'm sorry for the surprise, the guy moves at his own pace."

Yellow shook her head.

"It's fine as long as he helps out with rent."

"Then we need not worry, the guy is loaded."

On second thought, Yellow frowned.

"Hey...is he always that...comfortable?"

Yellow didn't know what to say, she couldn't really find a word to describe him.

"Oh...sort of. He's a big flirt and always jokes, but he's not the type to go after uninterested women. He's not that bad once you get passed the playboy side."

Yellow nodded only to have Blue sigh.

"What's wrong?" Yellow asked.

"Tell me honestly...how'd you meet and what happened so that you guys ended up like that this morning?"

Finally, Yellow knew this moment would come but she hardly had anything prepared.

"I went out last night by myself and bumped into some dangerous guys. He came and saved me at the last minute. My shirt has been ripped since and I passed out from the shock. He helped me get home and took care of me after that." Yellow turned away not wanting to look Blue in the eye because of her shame. She didn't want her sister to know what really happened and it was making her uneasy just to give her a straight answer.

Blue had an expression that said she had many things she wanted to ask, so many that nothing came out right. She skimmed the younger girl for unusual behavior and found plenty.

Something else had happened and Yellow was hiding it from her.

It hurt, but Green was right. Yellow and her had drifted apart. They use to tell each other everything, never missing a single detail, but something about her words sounded hallow and whipped with secrets.

How long had it been since then?

The questions she wanted to voice never make it out. She swallowed them back, realizing that she too had been keeping quiet about many things, never being completely honest to her kin.

"Are you okay?" Blue finally decided to ask genuine concern present in her voice.

"Mhm. I was a bit panicked when I woke up, I'm sorry for calling you like that."

"As long as you're okay..."

"...Is something else the matter, Blue?" It was Yellows turn to show her concern.

Blue shook her head. For now, she needed an excuse, something to get away from the secrets and their current topic.

"No...I'm just...a bit worried? I shouldn't be, forget it."

"Okay, spill it. You can't just say that and take it back. What's up?"

After a short pause, Blue finally replied.

"Well, he's a good friend, really. He's actually pretty reliable..."

Yellow nodded. Blue always voiced her thoughts and Yellow always heeded her warning because Blue always had reason behind her words.

"...and the problem is?"

"I just can't stomach him being close to you. He can be touchy at times and the thoughts just drive me crazy! When I think of him trying something I want to rip him to shreds!"

Yellows eyes widened.

"I thought you said he's a good, reliable guy."

"Well, sure, but he's still a pervert!"

"I'm not sure what to think anymore..." said Yellow.

"No, forget it. He'll be fine...you'll be fine..."

Yellow looked at her sister questioningly for her odd behavior.

"There's something you aren't telling."

Blue let out another exasperated sigh.

"I just want to be the one closest to you. I hate that someone gets to be close to you and even see you everyday."

"Jealous much?" Yellow chuckled.

"Yes, very." Blue groaned. "Promise me you'll love me the most!"

Yellow smiled, pushing her sadness at an unrequited love away.

"Promise."

The older girl glomped the small blonde.

"I love you the most, Blue."

It was true and it made her feel like an idiot.

Blue was the most important person in her life.

It was long since decided that she'd give up on that onesided love for the love that she would never lose even thought that was the biggest thing that hurt her.

A few hours later, Yellow returned to her apartment. She expected Green to be sitting in the living

room watching a few sports channels or the news.

When she walked into the apartment, she found him asleep on the couch with a book laying on his chest and glasses set on the table side. He seemed to have made himself quite comfortable in a matter of hours while she was gone.

She sneaked a few steps in and removed her shoes, not wanting to disturb his slumber.

After changing in her room, she went back down to find him missing from the couch.

The sound of the sink running alerted her that he was in the kitchen.

To be honest, the girl wasn't quite ready to deal with him just yet.

The conversation with her sister made her slightly cautious, keeping up her previous guard she had shown before.

When she finally strode into the living room she couldn't even look at him. Her arms and legs were stiff, each step mechanical and heavy.

She heard him laugh from the corner of the room.

"You don't have to be so cautious, I won't do anything."

Yellow finally turned to him, catching his gaze.

Beautiful, the man was truly gorgeous and his smile was dazzling.

She blushed at her own thoughts.

"How about coming with me for dinner?"

She gasped.

"Thanks, but no thanks. I've got some things to do so if you'll excuse me."

Yellow turned away and tried to find something to use as an excuse.

Green saw her panic and smirked inwardly knowing she was lying.

He always knew when a girl was lying or hiding something and he was tempted to find out no matter what. He slowly approached her and put his hand gently on her shoulder, giving her a start.

"Don't worry about anything and just have fun tonight. I know that last night can be pretty traumatizing, but I won't let anything happen to you."

Yellow didn't say a word. She went out fine this afternoon because it was bright and she was with Blue, someone she knew and trusted. This man was someone she hadn't even known for a day yet and already asked her out to dinner.

"It's been a while since I've been here so I don't really know my way around. If you could accompany me, we could call it even."

She looked up at him curiously and quirked a brow.

"Lastnight i had a hard time convincing the cab driver that I didn't have any ill intentions with you just in your underwear and my jacket."

Yellow paled and her mouth fell agape. For the short time she thought he was a decent, caring gentleman, she instantly shredded that image and replaced it with a conniving green eyed monster.

"So...dinner?"

She pulled herself away and ran off to her room leaving Green without a reply.

He stood still for the next five minutes contemplating his next move when suddenly Yellow emerged wearing a loose sweater, jeans and sneakers. Her hair was pulled into a messy ponytail and her face held no signs interest. She looked like a teenage social outcast that never left her bedroom once.

"Where do you want to go?" She finally asked. Greens eyes widened momentarily as he scanned her overall. He couldn't believe that she wanted to go out in that attire.

A few seconds later he doubled over and just laughed. Yellow blushed in embarassment and sent him a glare. She wore them because she didn't want to deal with any men tonight including Green. It was her way of saying she wasn't interested in getting 'close' to anyone tonight.

"You're so- ahaha...so...wow!"

It wasn't a compliment, or at least she thought it wasn't.

After stifling his laughter, Green smiled and reached for the door.

"After you, miss Yellow." He grinned at her as she let out a small 'thank you'.

As they made their way out, Green let out another weird comment.

"We should do this every night."

She looked at him annoyed at his teasing, but found that his words were quite genuine. He smiled at her pleasantly and it almost made her do the same, but she turned away before he could see.

Yellow thought him to be odd.

The night had barely begun and already he was having a blast. Didn't he find it embarrassing to be seen with her?

"Aren't you embarrassed?" she asked.

"Nope." From the sound of his voice, she knew he wasn't lying.

Oddly, it made her happy, but when she thought it over, she frowned.

Not only would she be living with him, she'd be accompanying him outdoors as well.

Basically, it meant she'd be with him almost every waking...and sleeping moment.
