CREDAM
"Speaking of the devil", Sam remarked coolly the next day. Most girls got nervous and insecure around someone as good looking as Griffin, except her.
"You always know how to flatter me", he joked back.
"Griffin", Sam smiled shaking her head. "I knew I sensed some type of evil lurking", she joked wiping the counter and shaking her head. She couldn't help but notice he was still deathly gorgeous.
"Aw", he joked running his hand through his thick waves of hair. "I'm not so bad".
"Yeah", Sam rolled her eyes. "And I'm Mary Sunshine".
Griffin plopped his elbows on the counter and sighed. " I think you are, Blondie".
Sam shook her head with a loud sigh. "You got me mixed up with Carly".Carly, Griffin thought had been acting pretty weird lately. It was like, she didn't want to want him or something anymore.
"Where is my love?" he asked sarcastically.
Sam pushed up the sleeves of her shirt and sighed bitter this time. "Probably with her boyfriend".
"Oh well, I didn't come to see her anyway", Griffin simply remarked his brown eyes staring Sam down boldly.
Sam stopped wiping the counter curiously and squinted her blue eyes with sass. "Then who are you looking for?" "
"You".
"Me?" she asked alarmed and felt her heart beat race, was he nuts? She thought in disbelief.
"I feel like going out, when are you off?"
Sam turned with an arched brow and smirked, every since they'd met they played shameless sarcastic games to tease each other.
"Yeah, so we can fly off into NASA? Sure", she laughed.
Griffin smirked scratching his chin. "No, seriously".
"Really?"
"I get off in 20", Sam nodded and shrugged. " I got nothing better to do".
"So", Sam asked while preparing a smoothie. "How was college?"
"Very pretentious rich kids".
"You are a very pretentious rich kid', she said with a wink.
"Why thank you, Puckett", he joked back.
Sam handed the waiting customer their smoothie and hopped across the counter to sit next to Griffin and stretched her arms out.
"I'm lonely", she admitted.
"Join the club", Griffin stated and patted his shoulder and finally pulled out a joint.
"Party favors".
"Jeez", Sam exclaimed wide eyed. " Chill out bad boy this is my work place".
"Don't act all Carly on me, you don't smoke anymore?"
"No, I quit but I don't see a reason not to", she tilted her head toward the employee bathroom. It was no secret that she had a troubled past but it was only with petty crimes here and there, nothing major as her mother would put it.
They stumbled into the bathroom and began to smoke, giggling and laughing falling all over each other. "You're bad, Griffin", Sam giggled drowsily.
"You're bad too", Griffin joked blowing smoke out his nostrils and shook his hair out.
"You're really good looking too man, I mean really good looking dude", Sam squinted her eyes and shrugged her shoulders before following Griffin back outside. She didn't have any feelings for him whatsoever, it was just nice having a familiar face to look at.
Sam sighed shaking her head and stumbled toward the front of the groovy smoothie with Griffin following behind casually. He'd wrapped his arms around her waist to keep her from rolling on the floor laughing.
"Sam?" a familiar deep voice asked.
She turned slightly sobering up and squinted her eyes at him. " Fred ward?" Sam joked and laughed louder than she meant.
"Are you oka-
"Griffin", Freddie remarked seeing the guy next to Sam, looking smug and arrogant as usual.
"I see you've grown up", he remarked eyeing Freddie. The last time he saw Freddie, he was short and geeky. A lot had changed, he noticed.
"I see you haven't", Freddie remarked and refocused on Sam. He always knew Griffin was bad news, and even more so he didn't like how close he was holding Sam.
"Are you okay?" he asked concernedly and pulled her to his side to get a better view.
"Don't be such a prude she's fine".
"Yeah", Sam responded clearly. "I'm fine". In fact she hadn't even smoked, it was simply inhaling, she reasoned with herself.
"Hey, shut up", Freddie barked pointing his finger at Griff.
"Are you going to make me?" Griffin asked unfazed.
Freddie ignored Griffin and attempted to guide Sam out the door by the small of her back without making a scene. " I'll take you to Carly's".
"Yeah, how is our girl doing? Sexy of course", Freddie narrowed his eyes and was about to charge toward Griffin but Sam stood in between the two.
"Its not worth it", she reasoned. Freddie agreed and tilted his head for them to just leave but Sam shook her head.
"Maybe she doesn't want to leave with you", Griffin reasoned easily.
"C'mon Sam", Freddie stated grabbing her hand to hurry her along but she stood frozen. Freddie turned surprised to face her.
"No", she said clearly. " I'm leaving with Griffin", Sam remarked following Griffin outside her blond hair blowing behind her. Freddie stood stunned, he didn't know what was going on but he didn't like it.
