Felix's P. O. V.
Later that day we left to meet some of Cry's friends in the park. We sat down on a bench to wait, and I grabbed Cry's hand, leaning against him and relaxing.
It wasn't long before a man wading gold clothes with a sword in his belt walked up with a girl with long black hair and blue eyes and a long scar running from an inch above her right eye down her face over her eye to an inch from the bottom of her face, a man in green clothes, and a man in pink came walking up and we stood to meet them.
"Hey, guys! This is Felix, my boyfriend." It sent shivers up my spine to hear him call me that. The one in gold smiled and held out his hand.
"Ellos, my name is Stephano." He had a deep voice and a French accent. I shook his hand and the girl smiled.
"My name is Sarah." I held out a hand and she shook it, smiling with a guarded look in her eyes, as though she was only trusting me with her name. I turned to look at the man in green. He had brown hair and green eyes behind thick glasses.
"My name is Mr. Chair, nice to meet you." I smiled and shook his outstretched hand. The man in pink smiled and was rather loud in his introduction.
"Hi, I'm Piggeh!" He flung his arms around me and hugged me, earning a gasp from me and a tight-lipped look from Cry. Piggeh finally pulled away, leaving me bewildered and dazed. The girl looked me up and down before turning to Cry.
"So you need help killing Jake, right?" He nodded and she smiled.
"So we finally get a chance for revenge. You needed me to track him, right?" He smiled, looking comfortable around these strange people.
"Yup. And I need your fighting skill. We need as many people as possible to take him down." They all spoke in unison.
"You came to the right people!" I could tell Sarah and Stephano were close, and my thoughts were confirmed when Stephano put his arm on her shoulders.
"If you need a tracker, you came to the right girl. No one can track like my best friend!" I heard the well-masked hurt in Sarah's reply.
"Yeah. I'm the best at it!" I smiled and Sarah smiled back at me. Cry organized a meeting at the house in the woods where he had been keeping Jake.
We all dispersed and Cry and I walked home. When we were out of earshot I turned to Cry with a question burning in my mind.
"Cry, did it sound like Sarah was sad when Stephano called her his best friend?" He stopped and nodded sadly.
"She has a crush on Stephano and Stephano has a crush on her. They don't know about the fact they both like each other. Everyone can hear the hurt in Sarah's voice, except for Stephano. Plus Sarah had some bad thing happen, so she helps us through life, like a mother would. She protects all of us. She actually set up Piggeh and Mr. Chair. They were just friends until she convinced them to go out. They fell in love and now they're happy as can be, but she's not happy, and all any of us want is for her to be as happy as she makes sure we all are..." I was shocked.
"Why don't you tell Stephano to ask her out? Or you could tell him about her crush and maybe he would ask her out on his own?" Cry shook his head.
"No one can. We told him, but he just tried to make her admit it. But she just wants him to be happy, so it never works." An idea popped into my head.
"Why don't we try something? I could tell her that you and I broke up and you tell Stephano to pretend to ask you out. You could pretend to say yes and hide Stephano near me while I ask her about her crush. Then he could hear for himself!" Cry looked at me and smiled.
"That could work. Let's do it." He pulled out his phone out of his pocket and texted Stephano the plan. He then texted Sarah to meet him at the park. We both smiled and walked home with happy thoughts running through our brains about the outcome of our little scheme...
