What?! A new chapter so soon? Well don't get used to it! I'm mostly just trying to get my bearings in this story and I felt writing a new chapter would help me the most. So win win for all I would say. Also, yes I know that this way shorter than my normal chapters. Enjoy!


My morning was a boring blur of everyday activities. Brushing my teeth, brushing my hair, getting dressed, breakfast, and then topping it all off with just sitting in my room. All of that work just so I could lounge in my chair and stare at things. Those things normally involved my television but every now and then I would look out my window or pick up some random item on my desk or bed that would capture my interest for a minute before I put it down and went back to the television.

The television just wasn't doing it for me today though so I decided that maybe I should actually do something today for once. Although I doubted I could actually figure out something to do that had any significance. That little detail wasn't going to stop me though. Plus, no one was here to say anything to me.

My decision was made and I started grabbing the things I needed before I left. Keys to the car that really would have been handy last night, a small bag for things that wouldn't fit in the tiny pockets of these pants, and my wallet that would have to go into the bag. I checked the wallet first though, making sure everything was there. It had a small amount of cash and an "emergency" card for when something happens unexpectedly. Even with all the money we had, my dad would be a stickler for when someone made a big purchase that wasn't necessary.

The only thing missing was my I.D. which I may need at some point today. I looked over my desk and moved a random pile of papers and found it at the bottom. It wasn't just my I.D. but also my driver's license which would be pretty bad to forget. Not even Dad could protect me from a ticket, not that he would try. I never liked the picture on the card. I looked great in it but I wasn't smiling like I thought I was when they took it. I knew I tried to smile and I even felt the muscles move in my mouth but I guess it just didn't work. At least I looked good in it. The pendant I had on in it reminded me to put it on, so that's one thing I got out of it.

With all of the necessary items in place and ready to go, I walked out of my boring house and got in my black car. It was black only for the reason of contrasting with my white hair and mostly white wardrobe. Most people expect some stuck-up looking girl like me to driving a convertible or white "cute" car but I didn't see a reason for it. A lot of people would probably think I'm wasting the opportunities my life gives me but I didn't see a point in it. Some would ask why I bothered going to school up until last year and I would tell them that I didn't learn much sitting at home. But now I was thinking too much. I needed to start driving and just zone out for a bit and find something interesting to do. I pulled out the driveway and headed into town with not much else besides the radio to give me company.


This was a horrible idea. There was nothing in this town that interested me. Well, at least nothing was interesting just by myself. Being alone really made everything around me sound unfulfilling. Going to a restaurant was saddening when alone and a movie was no fun when you couldn't share the enthusiasm. It was just me rolling around the city, coming up with ideas, and then promptly shooting them down in my mind. All of this so far was just amounting up to a waste of gas. Maybe I should just head home and accept my defeat.

I was just about to do that but I saw a car turn onto the road behind me. I saw the lights before they went off but that little fact didn't help me at all. A siren sounded and I was nearly blinded by the red and blue lights reflecting into my eyes from the rear-view mirror. I had no idea what I could have possibly done to warrant a cop to pull me over but I couldn't argue much. So I slowed my car down and pulled over to the side the road and put it in park. There was no reason to cause a scene so I just waited to see what the officer had to say. My side mirror gave me a pretty good view of him. He looked young but he was a bit overweight. My guess was that he was taking advantage of the officer discounts at fast food places a bit too much.

He walked up to my window and I rolled it down. "What's the problem, sir?" I asked with my sweetest voice.
"You were going five over the speed limit for this street." He said.
I was confused. I always checked the signs and I was sure I wasn't going over the limit. "Are you sure officer? I usually always check the signs."
"Ma'm please don't argue with me. I need your license and registration." He seemed very uninterested, even if it was a traffic stop.
I sighed and dug through my bag and glove box to produce the needed items. "Here you go, officer."

He nodded at me with a weird smile and walked back to his car to do whatever a cop does in there when they pull someone over. I wanted to smack myself for somehow making such a stupid mistake. I was positive that I stayed below the speed limit! I had watched the speedometer and everything. I didn't get much more time to beat myself up though as the cop was coming back to the window.

He handed me my license and registration back. "Well everything cleared on my computer. So all you're getting today is a speeding ticket."
I felt my stomach drop. "Just great. First my day is boring, and now it's just ruined. My dad is not going to be happy with this."
The officer gave me a funny look. "Dad? It said on your license that you're eighteen."
I just nodded. "I graduated high school but I just haven't started university yet."
"I see." He visibly thought for a second and got a sly smile on his face. "Look, if you don't want 'daddy' to know you got a ticket, I'll just not give you one. But you have to do me a 'favor' first." He leaned into the window with a wink.
Oh, he is not serious is he? "Uh, what officer?"
"You know what, missie. You 'help' me out and I'll help you out." His smile was sickening.

So many thing were running through my head right now. Shock, disgust, embarrassment, but mostly hate for this man. I can't even get away from perverts when I'm alone in my own car. There was no way I was going to go that low, even to avoid disappointing my dad. He was just going to have to deal with the ticket because now I didn't care.

I looked the cop in the eyes and put on my most devious look. "Actually officer, you could do a 'favor' for me to."
He seemed happy that his plan appeared to be working. "Really now?"
I smiled slyly and leaned back a little, pushing my breasts slightly out. "Yea, all you need to do is.. just give me the ticket."
His smile fell. "What?"
My smile was gone now. "I'd rather die than sink that low. Just give me the ticket and I'll be on my way."

He stood back up angrily and wrote out the ticket. Obviously he wasn't happy at being turned down like that. I happily took the ticket and watched him get back in his car and drive off. For once I was glad about my small bust and simple t-shirt. No way was someone like him going to get a peek at me. I didn't plan on driving off just yet though. That cop was probably waiting right around the corner to try and trap me again. In fact, I still doubted that I was over the speed limit.

I gave the cop about five minutes to potentially leave and then I pulled away from the curb. My plan was to head home straight away since my day was a complete bust. No fun, wasted gas, and a ticket put me at my tipping point. I just wanted to speed up everything before something else happens. I didn't get my wish though.

As I pulled up to an intersection where the light was red for me, I noticed a familiar looking car. I know it was dark last night but I was pretty sure it was that girl's car, Blake I think, from last night. She was driving perpendicular to me, going down the road to my right. My curious mind got the better of me and I took advantage of the city's traffic laws to turn right down the same road she was going down. I followed her down multiple streets until we were in place that reminded me of where I was last night, but instead of closed stores and dark alleyways, it was a more friendly looking street with people going up and down the sidewalks and some small time restaurants lining the streets.

Blake pulled over in front of a more small and worn looking store with barely anybody going in or out of it. She got of the car with a book in her hand and went inside. And like the creeper I was being today, I parked right behind her car and looked inside the store from my car. She was sitting at a small table near the window reading whatever the book was. She had a small smile on her face as she read. She really did like reading it seemed and wasn't lying either. I'm guessing a lot of guys would find this cute to see, even with her modest black hoodie and jeans.

I was debating whether or not to go in the store and talk with her but I wasn't too keen on the idea. Something about just walking up and saying "Hi" felt weird to me. It normally wasn't my style to be so outgoing compared to other people. Plus, I had a habit of becoming easily agitated with others when uncomfortable or when people were just being complete dolts. Debating got me nowhere though and I was about to leave when Blake decided to look out the window and squinted her eyes in my direction. It seemed I was busted as she finally recognized me and threw me a smug smile. She twiddled her fingers at me and then waved for me to come in.

Embarrassed didn't even describe how I felt after being caught acting like a creeper. Unfortunately, it was too late to turn back for home. I turned off my car and got out, heading awkwardly to the door. I'm sure she was watching my every move up until that point enjoying my little scene. I pushed the door open and a bell rang out from above me. There was an old paper smell in the air and I quickly figured out why. I couldn't see it from my window but there was shelves of books at the back of the store.

I heard Blake call out to me. "I'm glad I can see you again, Weiss." Her leg lifted up and pulled a chair over to her already too small table. "Join me?"
Sunlight burned into my cheek through the window as I sat down at her table. "Umm, hi Blake.."
She laughed at my uncomfortable situation. "So, what brings you here?"


There, now there is a reason for the M rating for now. But like any of my regular readers know, I usually don't plan more than at most two chapters ahead so I still have to brainstorm a lot. Or I'll just write whatever shows up at the moment of writing like I usually do. As per my never changing policy, reviews are welcome. And remember, HAVE FUN!
