Chapter 11 shopping with stolen money, and a familiar face
Skye waited as Claire took her shower getting ready to head to town.
I wonder what Claire looks like naked?…ahhh…NO! she's way to innocent to think about like that!…wait she's not innocent, remember that time we played truth or dare how she just got up and kissed me out of pure pride?…that was our first kiss…
"What do you plan on wearing?" He asked.
"My gray Gir T-shirt, jeans and my orange DCs." She replied from the bathroom walking out in nothing but a towel.
"AAH! What are you doing I'm right here,…not like you don't have a good body or anything, wait that didn't come out right…" He stuttered.
"Oh, shut-up you don't have to be so shy I mean we have been going out for like a month." She said walking into her bedroom to get dressed.
"And besides you probably saw more of me then now that day we got all drunk and had that killer hanger over and neither of us could remember what happened." She said from the bedroom, and a memory from last night popped into his head.
Oh hell, oh bloody hell I did, I saw it all and we- we- ohh….
He nearly collapsed but held his ground. Then Claire walked out ready as can be.
"Where's your purse?" He asked.
"I don't carry one having a purse makes you look week and defenseless, and I'd prefer to avoid killing anyone, I carry a wallet." She said pulling a orange brown striped wallet from her pocket.
Alright! That doesn't matter!…Huh? Normally girls like her wouldn't be my type, but yet she's the one I fell in love with?
He thought examining his beloved.
"Alright then we'll be headed to New York, the city I was raised in I go there every few years to se if my favorite café is still open." He smiled looking at his list of things to do.
"New York, so we'll hop on a boat right?" Claire asked kind of stupidly considering they obviously aren't going to walk there, or take a taxi.
Duh, no don't say that she'll get angry…
"Yes, shall we get going?" He asked and Claire nodded.
Once they arrived at the peer in Mineral Town, they hopped on the boat(not literally!) and headed for New York.
As they arrived in the busy city Skye thought he could almost detect a little fear in Claire usually beautiful, and stronger eyes.
She's not afraid is she no that'd be impossible,…not Claire the scariest person I've ever met…but she isn't used to places like this the biggest place she's ever been in is Waterson(a town I made up the one east of mineral town)She must be scared do something.
He pulled her in close to him and smiled.
"It's okay I'm here." as he spoke Claire looked like she wanted the ability to say I'm not scared, but did not and kissed him.
He smiled and the caught a taxi to the Happily le café, Skye's favorite café.
They left the taxi and Skye being the show off he was gave the taxi driver a 20 dollar tip of stolen cash.
"Boy did that taxi ride go better then others I've been through." Claire laughed gaining a bit of ease.
"What do you mean?" Skye asked.
"It's a long story you had to be there." Claire laughed.
As they walked the sidewalk people looked t them like they were an algebra problem trying to figure out the answer to how they ended up together.
Hey entered small little café the favorite of Skye's, inside it was you're basic coffee shop with an old fashioned twist.
They grabbed booth, and sat down looking at the menu.
Soon a waitress the very meaning of why this was Skye's favorite place, came to the table, she had long silver hair, pale skin, and sharp icy blue eyes, just like Skye, because she was one of the grim reapers phantoms the woman Skye new as Serenity.
"Skye, haven't seen you here in a long time, nether have I seen you with a woman before, may I ask who this may be?" She asked in a French accent.
"Oh yes, Serenity this is Claire, my girlfriend, and Claire this is my old friend Serenity." He introduced, both of them gave glares at each other.
"You know she could never love you the way I did, and still do, she doesn't have the same connection." Serenity whispered in his ear.
"That maybe but me and her have a stronger connection, besides she knows." He whispered back.
"Oh she knows, well Claire did you know if Skye told you anything like 'I've never had a relationship before' or anything, he's lying, he and me were-" Serenity started but was interrupted.
"We never had that you wanted it but I never gave it to you!" He said angrily.
"Wow, what great friends you are, now I' like to know what this it is." Claire asked.
"Love." Said Serenity.
"Really, then sorry but his love is mine but I bet that dirty hobo would love to give you some a his." Claire gritted her teeth lifting up her fist.
"Claire no we don't want to make a scene she's a phantom." Skye said, Claire looked surprised.
"Then lets go." Claire said getting up and walking out the door, Skye followed after.
Then after a hole night of shopping with stolen money, he and her realized it was late got hotel room, called Jack to do farm work, and slipped into bed.
"Hey Skye." Claire said.
"Yes?" He asked.
"Tell me more of your story." She asked.
"alright."
