Sorry that I haven't updated in, well, forever. No computer really puts a damper on everything.
The night had finally come and the Smoothie Bar was finally opening. Inside four couples and Sky were sitting at a large table ready to order.
"What do you want?" Nabu asked Layla while she was reading the menu of drink options.
Layla put down the menu and stared at Nabu, "I will tell you when I am ready." She then put up her menu once again to read it. Nabu then turned away to talk to Sky.
"Are you ready to order?" Brandon asked Stella.
"I think I will have a Sunshine Surprise." Stella responded as she put down her menu.
"That sounds good, I think I will get the same thing. Riven, I am going to get the strawberry-mango smoothie." Musa said which earned her a nod from Riven and not much else at that. Musa sighed and put down her menu.
'Uh, Flora, what would you like?" Helia nervously asked Flora.
"Um, I think that I am going to get the Caribbean Crush smoothie." Flora timidly replied.
"I think that sounds like an excellent choice." Helia said.
"I wish somebody would say that my choice was excellent." Musa mumbled under her breath.
"Did you say something?" Riven asked Musa.
"Now you notice." Musa said getting up and heading to the restroom.
"What did I do?" Riven asked.
"Don't worry she will be back." Sky reassured him. "By the way, could you come by the station tomorrow for some follow up questions?"
"Um. sure but do you have to ask now?" Riven scoffed.
Soon a man in his young twenties came over to the table to take the orders. He was of medium build, around six feet, and had dark brown hair.
"Hi, my name is Michael and welcome to the Groovy Smoothie where our smoothie is always groovy. Sorry, the slogan needs work, it's a process. Anyways, what can I get you?" the group laughed with the exception of Riven and Musa who was coming to the table.
"Well, hello." Musa said as she took a look at Michael.
"Hello there, what can I get you to drink?" Michael asked Musa.
"I will have a Sunshine Surprise." Musa replied.
"Me too." Stella answered.
"I will have the Caribbean Crush." Flora said quietly.
"I'm sorry, i didn't hear that." Michael smiled politely.
"i said I will have the Caribbean Crush." Flora said loudly.
"Heard you that time." Michael laughed.
"I will have the Skinny Mini." Layla responded.
"With or without the green tea?"
"With, please."
"And for the guys?" Michael asked.
"I will have the Protein Pomegranate." Sky answered.
"Ragin' Raspberry." Brando replied.
"Fruit Fusion for me." Nabu answered.
"Berry Blast." Helia said.
"And for you?" Michael asked Riven.
"Nothing for me." Riven sneered at the young waiter.
"Um, okay. I will have those right out." Michael said as he placed his pen behind his ear and walked away from the table.
"You know I think that going here with you was a bad idea." Musa snapped at Riven.
"What?!" Riven was shocked at the statement.
"I barely know you and you are acting like a complete jerk. If this is the real you, I don't want anything to do with it." Musa exclaimed.
"Excuse me? I'm sorry that I don't find every little thing you say to be fascinating!" Riven replied.
"Hey who wants to dance?" Nabu asked through nervous laughter as he grabbed Layla's hand.
"I think I would like to." Helia answered.
"Me too." Flora said which cause Helia to blush a bit as Flora grabbed his had and squeezed it.
"Brandon, come dance with me." Stella demanded as she pulled Brandon up from his seat.
"Well, I guess I could go do something...not at this table." Sky said as he slowly got up and walked to a different part of the bar and sat next to a girl with firey red hair. Now all that was left at the table was Riven and Musa.
"Okay what is your deal? You invite me here and then I get ignored all night long! Your attitude is anything but cool and you are being a total jerk!" Musa yelled at Riven.
Riven turned to face Musa with his brow furrowed and a grimace on his face. "I am sorry that I am not everything that you thought that I would be. If I don't like something, I am going to let it be known."
"You are really something." Musa scoffed, took her jacket, and then walked out of the building. Riven sighed and burried his head into his arms that were folded on the table. Soon Sky walked over to Riven.
"What happened?" Sky asked.
"None of your business!" Riven snapped.
"Look, if you are going to be that way, then you don't deserve Musa. Why don't you just go home?" Sky stared down Riven and guestured towards the door. Riven shot up with his face only inches away from Sky's. Riven gritted his teeth and then noticed that all eyes were on Skye and him. Riven smirked, took his jacket and walked out of the same door Musa had walked out moments before.
"Are you okay?" Brandon asked walking up to Sky with Stella.
"Yeah, I'm fine. I'm a cop. I've seen scarier, I am just worried for Musa." Sky chuckled.
"Musa is a big girl. She can handle herself." Stella chimed in trying to reassure Sky.
"I really hope you are right." Sky said. He sat down as Brandon and the rest of the group tried to enjoy the rest of their night without remembering the incident with one of their friends and a man they had just met earlier that day.
