Slice of Heaven

December 12, 2010

12:35 p.m.

Oh my god, there going in for it again. Eyes wide, I watched as the couple a table over started to make out again. That must be the fourth time since I've been here.

The male finally pulled away, but kept his lips on her forehead. I looked around a few times, thinking the whole thing might be on one of those shows. Remembering a Saturday Night Live sketch so much like this, I looked over at the couple again.

"I can get Despicable Me trailers on this phone." The male boasted and I made a face. Impressive?

"I love that movie!" She squealed in delight. It took me all of a minute to decide she was a complete air head. "It's so fluffy! I just want to kill it!"

Oh my god, that's not even the words. Glaring down my menu, I wondered for the tenth time where Griffin and Olivia were.

"I think we'll be together for awhile." I licked my lips with a slight confused look on my face. Wow, lets see how far that goes for you pal.

"Hey." Olivia greeted sliding into the booth. At my look, she put her guard up. "What's with the face."

"I don't know. How bout you ask my only source for company for the past twenty minutes over there." I pointed my thumb at the couple, who were still marveling at the guy's phone.

"What are they doing?"

"The guys phone can show Despicable Me trailers! Isn't that great? I wish I had a phone like that!" I massaged my temples, trying to relieve the descending headache.

"You do have a phone like that." Olivia pointed out, a slight smile on her face.

Griffin took that moment to stroll in and I glared at his form. His step faltered at either seeing me or Olivia, possibly us both, I didn't know. He sat awkwardly down next to Olivia. "Hey."

"Hello." I answered him. Olivia sat silently next to him like a looming presence.

"Not that I'm not enjoying all of this," I drawled. "but what's going on between you two?"

Griffin looked towards the couple - still marveling over the phone - so Olivia answered the question. "I do believe that that does not concern you Massie. Nothing has happened between Mr. Hastings and I, we are just not as close permitted as we used to be."

That increased my headache, so I just dropped it for now. "Yeah okay."

"Why did you want us all to meet at Slice of Heaven?" Griffin questioned, finally meeting my eyes.

"Because," I began a huge smile spreading across my face. "today marks the day we all started becoming friends! I won't say the day we met, because we all were aware of each other before that."

Olivia's eyes brightened in surprise and then dimmed slightly in guilt. "It completely slipped my mind."

"I knew it was sometime in December, I didn't think it was here yet. Actually, I thought it was the seventeenth." Griffin looked down at the menu, even though he already knew what he was going to get.

I gave a small embarrassed smile. "Well...I kind of...fehmmm hmmm."

Griffin had smug glint in his eyes. "What was that Massie? Didn't catch the last part."

"Fehmhm dehmmhmm." I mumbled out looking out the window. We hadn't seen any snow yet and it was starting to get annoying.

"Hmm? Speak up." Griffin was enjoying this.

My eyes narrowed at him and I stared him straight in the eyes. "I forgot the actual date, so I just decided to celebrate today."

"Wow Massie." Griffin made an exaggerated display of looking shocked. "I don't know if I can really depend on you anymore. How long were you going to lead us on?"

"Oh my god, shut up Mr. Hastings. It'll make us all feel better." Griffin grabbed his heart, looking wounded. "How about we go see a movie? Because I'm really wanting to see Yogi Bear!"

"Yes!" Olivia squealed, attracting the attention of the coupled adoring the phone. They shot her annoyed looks, as if not looking at the phone for a second would cause them agony.

Olivia, Griffin, and I stood up walking to the exit. Right as we're at the door, I look behind us, and connect eyes with the couple. "That phone is two years old! Nobody wants dinosaurs anymore, might want to invest in a new phone buddy."

-O-

"Okay so we could see Yogi Bear..." Griffin paused try to make what he was about to say more dramatic. I rolled my eyes at this guy. "Harry Potter!"

I let out a surprised laugh and Olivia even cracked a smile. The fact that he'd said it in a mock British accent, made it all the more hilarious.

"Wait, how did he get that lightening bolt thing again?" Griffin asked retreiving our tickets for Yogi Bear.

"I don't know. I lost that information ten movies ago." Shaking my head, I snatched my ticket from Griffin's hand, and gave it to the worker. He nodded me forwards and I bolted for the concession stand.

Popcorn. Yum.

I licked my lips upon receiving the large popcorn bucket that I had been eying. A content sigh left my lips, this was good. This was very good.

Wait. I froze and frantically looked around the entrance of the theater. Okay, he's not here. Derrick has this frightening habit of just showing up.

"What are you doing?"

I screamed in surprise, but stopped when I saw the look on Griffin's face. "Wow, who pissed in your popcorn?"

"Ha. Ha." Griffin spoke dryly and didn't look the least bit amused. Hmm...This has Olivia written all over it.

"You know what. I'll sit in front of you guys, so you can put the moves on her." I told him a bossy tone in my voice, leaving no room for argument.

Griffin sputtered. "What the hell are you talking about?"

"You know us girls Griffin. We love incessant blathering." I gave him a sugary sweet smile before turning back towards the theater two with a smirk.

Making sure to sit a few rows in front of Olivia and Griffin, my smirk grew exponentially at how awkward they seemed alone. I looked towards the entrance of the theater and frowned when the doors closed. Derrick had just become an expected presence I suppose and I couldn't help the flash of disappointment that flooded over me when he didn't appear.

-O-

That was so adorable! I squealed, standing up I stretched and popped my back. People were crowding the rows, so I sat back down

A smirk overcame my lips and I glanced back at Olivia and Griffin. My eyes widened and I literally fell out of my seat. Ohmigod. I hope Olivia doesn't get lost or sucked into Griffin's stomach.

A weirded out look crossed my face as I watched them, making sure my eyes didn't deceive me. I turned around quickly because it was just weird watching them sucking face. I guess they got their issues figured out.

I dashed out of the theater the first chance I got, because I was just plain uncomfortable. Walking towards the arcade, I decided to wait until they passed by before meeting up with them.

The sounds of various cursing of the games and shouts of encouragement for those passing high scores filled the air. I smiled, closing my eyes and just enjoying the atmosphere around me.

Quickly, I was sucked into the magnetic force of an old Pac-Man game. Nothing like the classics.

"Massie." Griffin's voice called out, I ignored him as I dodged the pink and red blobs. He walked up and placed a hand on my shoulder, I shook it off focusing entirely on the game.

Biting on my tongue lightly, my brow had a light sweat to it due to my concentration. A brief look of distaste crossed my face. This is sad if video games tire me out this easily.

After two more levels I was defeated and I felt the effects of failure fill me. They were quickly erased when I saw the amount of tickets that had accumulated during the course of my game. Yes.

Upon turning around I was greeted with more face vacuuming. "Guys not that this isn't the time of my life, but get a room or a bathroom stall or something."

Olivia broke apart with a squeak and Griffin gave me a smirk. "Jealous Ms. Block that you didn't capture my affections first."

I gave him a look as Olivia blushed red brightly. "Yea Mr. Hastings. I'm surprised you could sense my feelings through all that horniness. Get your hormones in check man."

Olivia almost fell over and Griffin started to pink on the surface, my job was done. With a smirk on my face, I walked passed them towards the entrance. "You are hilarious Massie truly."

"You know, they say talking to yourself is the first sign of insanity." A voice came from behind me.

Turning around, my lips twisted slightly. "Really Fisher, might want to tell me the second so I can keep my eyes open."

"Well that smile on your face is mental looking enough to convince me." Cam quipped.

"Ha. Ha." I laughed dryly. "You really are a comedian Fisher."

He shrugged exaggeratedly modest. "I try, I try. I'm glad my efforts aren't in vain Block."

"Yeah." I drawled looking towards a waiting Griffin and Olivia. "I've got to skedaddle."

As an afterthought I called out to him again, and waited until he turned around to ask. "Where's Derrick tonight?"

A wide, smug, smirk overcame Cam's face. I winced slightly, waiting for his answer. "Some Father and Son activity ball with his dad."

I nodded, satisfied with the answer and walked back towards Griffin and Olivia.

"What did Cam want?" Olivia asked innocently while we walked out into the cold December air and, ah, it was raining.

"To waste some of my brain cells." I picked off a piece of non-existent lint from my shoulder. Throwing my arms around the two, I smiled. "Happy - lets call it anniversary kay? Happy Anniversary."

"Happy Anniversary!" We chorused shouting to the rainy sky.

-O-

My cellphone buzzed to life, signalling a new text message. I stood up and grabbed it from desk, reading the text.

Unknown Sender: Good Evening.

Massie: Hi? And you are...?

Unknown Sender: Block, it's Derrick.

Massie: And how did you get my number?

Unknown Sender: I never reveal my sources.

Massie: Ah, like a true stalker.

Unknown Sender: ...I hardly find that amusing

Massie: Was there something you wanted?

Unknown Sender: Just wanted to tell you Good Night

Massie: Okay...

Unknown Sender: Good Night

Massie: Your a goof

Unknown Sender: Is that an insult?

Massie: Yes :) Good Night.

I bit my lip, trying to contain my smile. A content and happy sigh escaped my lips. For a second I felt like a swooning school girl, but I shook that thought off.

Derrick Harrington sure was something.


Yes he is. Plain and simple. Any mistakes? Please tell me so I can correct them ASAP. I hope you guys enjoyed the...What would you call it Grilivia? Oliffin? Well the GriffinxOlivia in this chapter. Short as it was, there will be more to come because I just adore them ;)
