"It's best if I keep my mouth shut" Nikki thought to herself as she really didn't want to jeopardize any chances with Christian yet but it was evident

that she liked him. Just before Christian could say something to Nikki, somebody came in, it was Kirsten. "What's up Kirsten?" asked Christian,

"AUGH! Kristen is being such a total b-i-t-c-h BITCH!" exclaimed Kirsten, Christian looked at his watch and it read 12:03pm "I got an idea, since its

lunchtime how's bout I treat you girls to some lunch" said Christian "That sounds cool, thanks" said Nikki, "You're such a sweetheart!" squealed

Kirsten, Christian and the girls were leaving the story when suddenly an obese lady stopped them; "Hold up, where do you think you're going?

Aren't you open?" scowled the lady, "I'm sorry miss but unlike your mouth we occasionally close" joked Christian, "I bought a pair of heels from

the Khaki Barn the other day and they broke and I want to know why!" exclaimed the lady as she handed the shoe to Kirsten. "Well, this is like a

pliant heel with a cork filling" said Kirsten, "Whereas you are a giant seal with a pork filling" joked Christian as Kirsten and Nikki began to giggle a

bit, "You haven't heard the last of me, what goes around comes around!" exclaimed the lady, "Well considering your orbit, I got about 10 more

years!" giggled Christian as the lady stormed out, "I swear, like you're such a badass!" giggled Kirsten as Nikki was still laughing and Christian

locked up the store.

[MEANWHILE ATHE THE FOODCOURT]

Jonsey sat down at a table, he had a look of failure on his face, "What's the matter bruh?" asked Jude, "I got fired" sighed Jonsey, "Harsh bruh"

replied Jude. Just then, Christian, Nikki and Kirsten came to the food court, "Uh Kirsten, don't mind me asking but why are you out of the Khaki

Barn?" asked Caitlin as she dusted off a couple of lemons as business was pretty slow, "Oh it's Kristen, she's such acting like a total bitch and I

think Chrissy's siding with her, like total gag-worthy right?" exclaimed Kirsten, "Uh yeah, totally" replied Jonsey, Wyatt approached the group;

"Hey guys" said Wyatt, "Hey Wyatt" said everyone. "Um, why is Kirsten not in the Khaki Barn?" asked Wyatt, "Kristen's being a bitch, as per like

usual" said Kirsten, "Ah understood" replied Wyatt. "Hey Jonsey, if you need a job, I'll give my cousin Mason a call, he works at a shipyard not that

far from here, he can hook you up, it pays good and…on occasions, let's just say shipments sometimes…disappear if you get my drift" said Christian

as he looked around just to see if anybody heard the "Disappeared" part but he was in the clear, he gave Jonsey his cousin's number; "If he picks

up, just say Christian sent me" said Christian as Jonsey began to dial.

[AFTER LUNCH]

Christian, Nikki and Kirsten returned to the shoe store, "Thanks for lunch Christian" said Kristen and her cell phone began to ring, it was a text

from Chrissy and it read;

"Get up here now, I want to talk with you"

"I got to go guys, thanks again for lunch Christian!" exclaimed Kirsten as she left the store and rushed upstairs. Christian sat at the cash register

bored out of his mind, he pulled out a drawing pad he kept under the counter that he had brought in on his first day of the job just to keep him

entertained, he pulled a mechanical pencil from his pocket and began to doodle, Nikki had noticed him drawing. "Hey what're you drawing?" asked

Nikki, "Ah nothing just doodling" replied Christian, "Let me see" said Nikki as she snatched it from him before he could even react, she flipped

through pages until she found something that made her eyes widen and her knees weak, it was a drawing of her, "You drew this?" asked Nikki,

Christian blushed and nodded "yes" Nikki fell in love with it, "It's amazing" said Nikki who was blushing a little, "Nobody's ever drawn a picture of

me before, would you be mad if I wanted to keep it?" asked Nikki shyly, "I want you to have it" replied Christian, "Oh you're so sweet!" said Nikki

as she gave Christian a kiss on the lips and then they both froze. "Did we just kiss?" asked Nikki, "Y-yeah, d-d-do you want to do it again?"

nervously asked Christian as Nikki smiled and nodded yes and her and Christian closed their eyes and puckered their lips and both shared a deep,

passionate kiss, meanwhile unbeknownst to them, Jonsey was watching, "Son of a bitch! You're going down Christian!" he exclaimed.

Well there went chapter 3, fat jokes and insults belong to Al Bundy, an inspiration to me (and the reason I made Christian a grumpy shoe salesman) Also I know I paired Nikki with an OC, all of you who object please don't spam the review board with insults directed at me about Nikki being with an OC please, I hate that and I've been down that road before. Thanks again, hope your R&R and well….have a nice day! (or night depending on your time zone!)
