"Heavens no. He makes my skin crawl"Amelie said much calmer with me than she was yesterday
"Wait does step out mean"Claire asked knowing Amelie would give her the answer
"How can I put in terms of your generation, He wants to go out on a date with me"Amelie said giggling
"ew, are you going to" I asked
"No after what hes done for so many centuries I think not." Amelie said her face hardening
"But when claire described it, he seemed pretty sincere"Garth said as he was eating a apple
"Well I suposse- no I don't care about the old fool"Amelie said straigthening her jacket
"Amelie please do it"I begged even though I didn't like Oliver I didn't want him to get stood up
"okay but if this goes wrong-" Amelie didn't finsih she left the room
Garth started laughing again
"Is that all you do huh" I said furious he never took anything seriously
"no it's just you set Amelie and Oliver up on a date"Garth said choking on his apple
"so" I said rolling my eyes
"THAT. means that if this goes wrong you have both of them hating you" Garth said
"oh thats no good"Claire said slumping down into the big arm chair
"you think" he asked
With Amelie and oliver
Amelie (pov)
it was cold and for gods sake could Oliver be anymore slower. Although it may have been awhile since he's courted a woman. Properly
then this god awful limo comes up and then his old goofy face appears in the rolled down window
"you can't be serious" I said leaning down into the window all the fool did was smile
"a rose my love" Oliver said handing a rose to me
I Knew the night was a disater in the making
Claire walked into the crowded common grounds. She found herself going there alot ever since he and olivers little meeting. She saw ebony working the expresso in a hurry
"hey Claire "She said looking up fo only a second a splash of coffe and steam later she was done
"hey ebony" I said taking a seat
"Hey claire" Ebony said clanking all the way to the table. I know you guys are like why are they talking like the known each other since forever but I did say Iv'e been coming for awhile didnt I

"oh really Amelie wasn,t so happy" I said laughng
"yeah is she over you know who" ebony asked no one really said sams name anymore
"I don't know" I said and everything got quite between us. ebony started chewing her nails it was somehting she did when she was nervous
"Ohh we need nicknames"She said pratically bouncing up out her chair
"okay like what" Claire asked getting into the nickname thing
"oh I could call you Idianiana jones because your a girl" Ebony said and I knew i showed extreme distaste in the name "barbie!" she almost screamed
"yeah I can deal with that- ebbie" I said and we squealed together
"barbie and ebbie" ebony or should I say ebbie said clapping her hands
"such a good combo" I said giggleing
"did you get a good check in with crazy man" Ebony asked
"yes and his name is myrin" I scoled her
"okay, okay. I just -well, he is crazy. I mean ,he made you a, you know what" she said doing her best imatatioin of a vampire which made her sound and look like a cat
"well yes. enough about myrin how are you lately" I asked sighing getting tired of thinking about myrin it hurt to do so
"I got kicked out" Ebony said looking into her cup as if she would see somehting like in harry potter
"Of what" I asked like an idiot and she knew it too
"the chess club claire" She said annoyed
"wait, why would you get kicked out the chess club. you don-" I started to ramble
"Claire my house. I got kicked out my house"ebony threw her hands up and the shop was getting less and less crowed and it was soon closing time and time to get home but then
I Notice that ebbie didnt have a home to go to
"hey why don't you come home with me" I asked
"really I dont want to imposeshe said bashfully
"no what do you want to do crash with the local hobo timmy under his cardboard house" I asked sarcasticall
"I heard it's pretty stable. I guess, he made it out of that tough carboard. you know the kind that you-"Ebony ramble
I rolled my eyes and got us out of the shop not wihtout turning off the lights and locking the door
"what I was saying was I guess he made it out of that tough cardboard the kind you can't rip" She finsihed and this kept us laughing util we got to the glass house entrance
