Chap 4: Why Rock

I started walking to Rocks slowly. I didn't want to deal with rocks mother today she thought Rock and me were in love and even though I would tell her no she would say how cute it was that I deny it. On the way there a hippie looking guy started running I wasn't sure if he was running towards me so I just keep walking. An tell he started yelling.

"Wait!" the hippie yelled at me

I just looked at him a little odd who was this guy?

"Hi are you going to the inn (that's were rock lives)?"

"Ya why?" I asked looking at him weird.

"Ok there is this girl named Nami in their can I go In with you so I don't look desperate to see her man?"

"That's why? Sure!" At the time I was thinking if I ever needed something I would hope that someone would help me.

"So what's your name?" I asked trying to be nice

"Gustafa what's yours?"

"Naomi." I then wint inside and Gustafa started talking to the red head behind the counter I was guessing that was Nami. I wint into the kitchen were Ruby usually was.

"Hi Naomi sorry to wake you up I thought you usually get up early unlike rock who sleeps in tell 12 on a normal day!"

"My alarm didn't go off so its good Rock woke me up." I said trying not to look tired.

"Well then down to business I hear that you have bin trying to cook!" I was true I had bin trying to cook lately but I was horrid at it!

"Ya but I'm not very good!"

"I wanted to give you my old cook book and ask you a question." The question was going to be about rock as it always was.

"Its about rock and you…" I knew it! I said in my head.

"Do you like him because you may be his only chance at having someone put up with him like you do he seams to enjoy your company and I'm also very fond of you." What was I going to say to this! She had never bin so blunt before! She was pretty much saying marry rock!

"Me and rock are just friends Ruby!"

"Oh… ok I was just checking." She looked a little sad but didn't show it much.

"All right well happy cooking!" I then started out of Rocks and Gustafa was still their bugging Nami.

"How's work?"

"Fine"

"How's everything with your parent?"

"Fine."

"Are you ok?"

"Fine!"

"Are you working tomorrow?"

"Maybe."

"Do you have any plans when you're done working?"

"I don't know." Nami then saw me standing there and gave me a please-get-ride-of-him-look! I felt bad I'm the one that let him in! Gustafa saw me their and as he started to say something Rock came down the stairs.

"Hey Naomi what did my mom want?"

"She just had an old cook book she gave me no big deal." I kinda lied.

"Oh ok want to do something now?"

"I don't know if I can."

"Oh and Nami my mom said you can stop working now, she doesn't need you the rest of today or tomorrow." Gustafa gave him a happy look.

"Well then Nami you want to hang out today then?" Nami gave rock a glare and muttered something under her breath. (why does she hate Gustafa so much?)

"Fine but only if that girl and Rock come to." She didn't even know who I was and yet she was trying to drag me into this!

"Ok I guess I can take a couple hours off." I gave in and that seamed to make Rock very happy.

"Awesome!" We then headed to the bar I wasn't much of a drinker but Rock seamed to like it because he became just the age to drink last year. I didn't know about the other because I had never relay seen them before today. We got there and Muffy greeted us joyfully.

"Hey Naomi!" She then started talking to me giggling about her new boy friend.

"So anyway I meet this new guy in town today!"

"Another one?"

"Oh come on Naomi! He's not just another one this guy is really sweet!" just like the last one that dumped you I thought but didn't say.

"I'm sure he is Muffy and I hope this one works out."

"Anyway what can I get ya?" we all ordered and had a good time Nami looked bored out of her mind but she did smile once I think… but it soon became night time and I had to leave.

"Sorry guys but I have to get going!"

"Why Naomi we were having so much fun!" Rock said looking a little sad.

"Sorry but I have to get but early tomorrow."

"All right Ill walk you home." We then started walking towered the farm the sun was going down and the crisp fall air felt so good. Rock was smiling and to my astonishment reached for my hand.

"What are you doing?" I asked trying to be nice and shocked at the same time.

"Nothing never mind" Rock said trying to put on a fake smile I could tell. We got to the edge of the farm and he looked me strait in the eyes I was starting to get nervous.

"Well night Naomi." Rock the gave me a short kiss right on the lips and ran off. Rock I said to myself oh god Rock! This couldn't be happening and to top it all of I looked over and standing on the bridge was Marlin now walking away.

That the end of chap 4! By Monday September 25th or 26th I will have at least a few more chapters up! Maybe if the car ride up to my grandpas is so long and boring I will get more then just my planed 2 written on my lab top! Anyway I hope you are enjoying it so far!
