Quick Note:
I Didn't post the proper first half of this chapter, so I'm sorry about that guys, that's why I Removed the First Update to Replace it with this one. Hope you enjoy!
Again...heh.
Amy's POV
"Princess I don't like where this is going" my dad sighed on the other side of the screen.
I exhaled, bringing my laptop closer so that I could see him properly. It was nightfall at his site, and most of the men had been asleep. I was so relived when the video call had popped up on my screen. We hadn't talked face to face like this in a while, and it made me miss him even more.
"Neither do I " I admitted. "I don't know what happened, I just- kinda, freaked out. Sonic... he just, stood there." I groaned in frustration. "I'm a terrible person" i muffled into my pillow.
"You're many things Princess; a terrible person is not one of them. You two should really talk things out, from the way I see it" he sighed, rubbing his temples.
"You okay?" I asked a bit worried.
Whenever my dad was away and he hadn't been feeling well, my worries would only increase in comparison to if he was home; after all, he had two people to take care of him here.
"Just a headache coming on" he dismissed, freezing for a few seconds.
"The connection blows" I chuckled, propping the laptop back on my pillow as I lay on my stomach.
"But it's working." he assured. "How is the ex-boyfriend dilemma?" he whispered.
"Super." I deadpanned, hanging off the bed upside down. "It's like he never existed daddy; like we never existed." I sighed
"Isn't that a good thing?" he askd in confusion. "Because earlier you said-"
"I know what I said." I groaned. "I'm so messed up right now, I don't know what's up from down"
"If you keep hanging off the bed like that, that feeling might become permanet" I heard mom scold as she entered my room. "Amelia, you're going to get dizzy if you keep hanging off the bed like that. all that blood rushing to your head isn't good fror you."
"Is that my sweet angel?" my dad flirted.
I saw a blush dust my mom's muzzle as she hurried over to join me on my bed. She was drastically fixing her messy hair and smiling at my dad like a teenager.
Relationship Goals,Level:My Parents.
"Hello dear" she smiled, placing a hand over her heart.
"Angel.." he sighed, seeming to relax visibly at the sound of her voice.
He glanced between the two of us and grinned like a teenage boy. "How'd I get so damn lucky?"
"Language" my mother scolded him, a playful pout on her lips.
"Why, Mrs. Rose" he teased, raisin a brow at her a smirk on his lips. "You've had very foul language yourself on the Eve of my departure-"
"Okay! Scarred for life, take him and geeeeeettttt out" I whined, shoving the laptop at my mother.
She blushed furiously, before standing to her feet, muttering a goodnight to me before heading for my door; my dad laughing hysterically on the other side of the screen.
"How do you think you came into existence young lady?"mom added in.
"Mommmmuhhhh!" I groaned, covering my face with a pillow.
He laughed once more before calling on me again. I peeked form the covers and blushed as he held up his hand to form the sign 'i love you'. I signed back and he smiled warmly.
"I'll see you soon Princess; you've got this okay? One Step at a time" he instructed.
"G'nite Daddy."
"Good Night sweetheart. Now, Mrs Rose about our discussion-"
"OUT!" I laughed, throwing a pillow after my mom so she could scurry out of the room, closing my door behind her.
I stretched my limbs and swung my feet over my bed, making my way to my untidy desk. I turned on the desk lamp i had on the table, and went through some of the swatches that Clover had brought over yesterday, after she dropped me off.
We hadn't gotten the chance to properly talk about it either. Other than my dad, no one knows what happened between Sonic and I yesterday. At first, I thought it had been the right thing to do...to hurt him; it would make it easier for him to grow to drift from me, so he could focus on more important things.
Important things? Like Sally? an inner thought scoffed in disgust.
"She's his fiancee" I reminded myself. "You're not supposed to be anywhere near that"
My Ipod buzzed, signaling I had gotten a message. I picked it up effortlssly, and clicked the message; thanks to my busted phone I had to settle for my iPod until I got enough cash for a new one. After typing my pin on the screen, so that it unlocked my eyes skimmed over the notification.
"Speak of the Devil" I mumbled.
Shade:
(( Grams is ok😌))
"Well that's a relief" I smiled, typing it at the same time. I put the ipod down, not expecting it to buzz again. I glanced at the screen caustiously, reading out his second text aloud
Shade:
(( What are u up to?👀))
"Planning for the Fall Formal" I mumbled, typing it on the screen
Shade:
(( I 4got all about that😅))
"I figured." I shrugged.
Shade:
((I need to talk to u...😪))
"I thought that's what we were doing already" I mumbled, propping both of my feet on the seat on the chair with me.
Shade:
(( No, I want 2 see u, ftf 💯))
"I don't think I'm comfortable with that" I hummed against my bare knee.
Shade:
(( 's important Pinkie😔))
Looking at my old nickname, I sighed. What did he have to tell me that was so important? He obviously hadn't thought it was important to tell me where he was, what he was doing, was he still in school...
"I guess I have some stuff to ask him too...When would we meet?" I typed my last words to him.
If he wants to meet up face to face, wouldn't that mean he's back in town...?
Shade:
((Shade is typing...))
I held the phone to my face, tapping my foot on the edge of the seat as I waited for him to reply.
"Amy sweetie!" Mom called from downstairs.
I averted my eyes from the screen towards my slightly agape bedroom door. "Yes mom?!" I called.
"Could you come here for a second?" She hollered back.
I discarded my iPod on my desk and stood from the rolling chair. I opened my door and trudged downstairs, pulling on my shorts so that they weren't riding my butt.
I passed the living room and stepped into the hallway, mom standing in front the door.
"Mom what are you doing? It's freezing outside-"
"You have a visitor it seems..." she said, her lips in a thin line as she moved out of the way; revealing a bundled up silver wolf in the doorway.
"Hey Pinkie..."
"Shade?" I breathed out, clutching my side ponytail at the sight of him. "W-What are you doing here?"
"I wanted to talk, remember?" he asked, giving me his sheepish smile. "You think we could, go outside? Grab some coffee-"
"Though that sounds lovely" mom interjected, my heart beat quickened at the sound of her voice; I had forgotten she was there.
"Amy don't you have a shift today?" She asked turning to me.
I blinked for a few seconds before her words completely registered in my head. I whipped my head around to look at the wall clock and cursed under my breath.
"I have work" I explained to him.
"Work?" He asked confused.
"Work." I confirmed. "Do...do you want to come in?" I more asked.m my mother than I did him.
She nodded curtly and let him inside, her eyes trained on my shorts.
"I suggest that you go and change young lady" she hinted.
My muzzle grew warm and I nodded, dashing up the stairs hurriedly, tearing apart my closet for the cheesy uniform. I slipped into the comfy black collared dress, , fixing it s that it stayed right above my knees, the fitting dress hugging my curves comfortably. I hiked my hair up into a messy bun, tying a red bandanna on my head.I coated y lips with my favorite cherry tinted lip closs and slipped into my white converse with a red pinstripe along them. I picked up my iPod and my ear buds, and trudged downstairs.
"Ready" i exhaled. Shade took a glance at me, and his cheeks flushed slightly.
"Diner girl huh?" he asked, a smile tugging at his lips.
"Call me cliché" I shrugged.
"I already asked your mom if it was okay to drive you" he said getting up from his position on the couch.
He had worn a heavy chocolate brown coat, a green scarf with black slacks and shoes.
"What did she say?" I asked cautiously.
"I told him if you were comfortable with it; it was fine with me." Mom spoke up, emerging from the hallway.
"I'm okay mom" I assured her.
She released a sigh and walked up towards me with my red coat, draping it over my shoulders.
"Be careful" she told the both of us before walking us out onto the porch.
Gentlemanly as usual, Shaw opened the door for me and waited until I was comfortable inside his car before closing the door, joining me moments after.
The drive was silent, uncomfortably silent. He offered to turn the stereo on but I declined.
"Where have you been?" I asked quietly.
He released a shakey breath before answering. " Everywhere"
"What does that mean?"
"I've never been in one place for too long. " he tried, his face wrinkling to find the right words.
"Gram was getting worse, I couldn't find a decent job to pay for all the moving she had to do..." he winced.
"I was lost." He finished with an exhale, sinking into the seat as he slowed at a stoplight.
I nodded. Encouraging him to go on.
"I missed you..." he confessed. "I'm sorry for being so distant ever since that day..."
"Apology accepted." I said sincerely.
I felt his gaze on me and I turned to meet his amber colored eyes, making my breath hitch.
"I'm serious" I swallowed, turning my head as a soft green light shone on it. "The Light's green" I muttered.
He made the car move again and turned in the direction of my job at Wacky Waffles 't let the name fool you, its not a breakfast hut or anything, the owner of the place is none other than Waffles the Walrus Jr.
Who names a their kid "Waffles" anyway?
I've been working there part time , mostly during my breaks off from school or if their too understaffed and need an extra hand. In this case, i was running low on cash and needed to fill my piggy bank again.
The large Diner came into view, and Shade slowed the car down until he turned into the employee parking spaced, turning the car off. We at in silence for a while and my eyes were on everything but him.
This is way too awkward, it feels like I'm suffocating in here...
"So, thanks for the ride" I said quickly, my hand on the door handle.
"Wait." he said quickly, reaching over to close the door again.
I blushed at how close he had gotten, hie eyes full of lust as he stared at me. He released his grip on my hand, cupping my face in them.
"Listen..." he whispered.
"Listening.." I whispered back.
"About me dissapearing ; I just came back to tell you to stay away from me"
What. The Fluck?
"Stay away from you?" I asked raising my voice, all embarrassment washed from my face. "What the heck Shade?!" I barked. "Do you have any idea what I've been going through this past month?! My feelings are all over the place and then you decide to just walk in, drive me to work and then your telling me to stay away from you?!"
"I know how it sounds Pinkie-"
"Don't, call me that" I hissed.
I ignored the wash of hurt that covered his features, his brow furrowed, his mouth sagged into a deep frown.
He released a sigh and sat back in his seat. "I deserve that. But listen, take a look at this when you get the chance for me?" he asked handing me a small black jump drive.
I stared at the small contraption, before hesitantly taking it, pocketing it in my coat. "What's on it?" I asked warily.
"Answers." he said simply, shrugging his shoulders. He passed a hand through his quills, and it had seemed he'd been doing it a lot before picking me up.
A full minute of silence passed before he glanced in my direction; his amber colored eyes boring into my soul. I barely knew him now, and that very thought scared the crap out of me.
However, despite all of that; I knew I could trust him in a ...weird way.
"Thanks again" I finally said, feeling my muzzle warm, I opened the door again, but this time he didn't stop me.
"No problem...Amy." he smiled sadly.
I ignored the pang in my chest before I nodded once, slipping out of the vehicle. I straightened myself before grabbing the door, gripping it tightly before bending my body to take another look at him.
"I..." I took another breath before looking at him again, his face etched in complete confusion.
" I love you Shade" I whispered truthfully. His eyes widened at my confession and I saw him shift in his seat.
It was true.
I still loved him, and as soon as I realized it, I felt better...; so, maybe he deceived me, maybe he vanished, but he was still someone I fell hopelessly in love with. Someone who had taken my damaged heart, and fixed it with his own two hands...and now, he was leaving me...maybe even for good this time.
"J-Just, promise me you'll stay safe-" I stated, before his hands brought me back down into the car.
Before I could think, His warm lips met mine, his kiss soft, yet demanding.
There was a way he kissed that always made my heart warm, the comfort and familiarity of the taste of his mouth engulfed me all at once.
He dragged me back inside the car; he had made his way over to the passenger seat, easily positioning me on his lap. His body was faced outward, the door completely wide open; but I didn't care.
Not now.
I wrapped my arms around his neck, tugging on him so that we were closer.
His arms were like an iron grip on my waist, our moans twisted together in the harmony we had created over our time spent together. I remembered when he first kissed me; he was so careful, so loving...but right now, he was taking; drinking as much of me as he possibly can.
His lips devoured mine, yet still moved at a tempo I could keep up with. I tugged eagerly at his quills the moment he bit my lower lip, dragging it out before sucking on it tenderly.
"Shade..." I breathed.
"God your beautiful..." he said in a strained tone before returning to my quivering lips for more.
His tongue explored my mouth expertly, before clashing into battle with mine.
In that moment, I had forgotten about the picture, forgotten his lies, forgotten his disappearance; because I knew, this was the last time I would see him...touch him...kiss him...like this...
I could feel the hot tears running down my face, and my sob finally broke out. His arms reached for my back; comforting me, rubbing my back sweetly as we parted, our breath uneven. I lifted my gaze to his and was surprised to see a streak of tears running down his face. His amber colored eyes reflected the warm colors of autumn, reminding m that he was always this way; warm.
From his laughter to his personality, Shade had always been 's so beautiful it hurts...
"I Love You too..." he breathed.
As I stepped through the double steel doors, my heart was racing like crazy. A sudden clang made me jump, squealing as if I'd seen a ghost.
An orange cat stepped into veiw and she giggled, shaking her head so that her twintails in her hair shook with her. She wore the same black dress I did, and she dawned a red, diner girl apron around her waist, a notepad peeking out of the pocket.
"You're so jumpy" she smiled, picking up the tray that had fallen.
"You scared the life out of me Cammie" I panted, holding onto my chest, a smile plastered on my face.
"Sorry Amy, " she laughed again, showing off her sharp canines. "Pete was neglecting work again so I threw this at him to get him on his feet." she said waving her steel tray before me.
My sweat dropped but I understood. "Is-Is he okay?" I asked with a laugh.
"Well he hasn't sued me yet, so I guess so" she shrugged, a faint tint of blush brushing her cheeks. I gave her a knowing look, and she cleared her throat, glancing down at her golden wristwatch.
"You're a bit lat there, that's not like you" she coughed, changing the subject. She handed me a matching red apron to hers, tucking her tray under her arm.
I took it from her and blushed furiously. "Won't happen again, I was just-Shade was- he dropped me to work" I whispered.
Cassie stared at me for a few seconds before she registered what I'd said, before her eyes stretched into saucers, her mouth forming the perfect shape of an 'O'.
"Whoa, are-is it okay? I mean, you guys- you guys are okay right? I don't have to throw this at anyone else ?" she asked pulling her tray from under her arm slowly, gauging my expression.
"No! I mean- I'm fine , totally fine but not really?" I sighed,rubbing my hands down my face. "Can I talk about this later?"
"Hmm..." she purred, tapping her nails on the tray in hand. "Fine, but i better be able to hit something at the end of it all." she smirked.
I smiled sheepishly, nodding at my manager and friend and made my way towards the employee lockers that had taken up an entire wall space. They were all ceiling to floor high, making it talll enough to store at least seven outfits at a time in here. A small pocket on the door held my house keys and other small items. A peice of paper fell from the locker and I bent town to pick it up whilst Cassie continued ranting about Pete and his new girlfriend.
"Who wears a tank top in the fall anyway?" she hissed, tapping her fingernails angrily. "I know I'm not the most mature girl out there, but at least I'm fun!"
I glanced at her as she said those words, and I couldn't help but think about Sonic.
"So, do you think you'd ever...I dunno, tell him?" I asked carefuly.
She exhaled, hugging the tray close and leaning onto the wall of lockers. "I want to." she whispered. "But i just think he sees me as some adult who hasn't outgrown her diapers"
I know what you mean...
"And this girl, this one in particular...she's just so, so...perfect." she groaned.
"Pretty?" I asked, stripping out of my jacket.
"Beautiful! She's a Science Major at their University, while I still can't wrap my head around Calculus! She's always so neat and put together and I'm so afraid to stand next to her because-"
"You'd feel like a joke" I sighed, wrapping the apron around my waist.
"Like he's just paying attention to you because he feels sorry for you-like you're just his...little sister-o-or something" I stuttered, feeling completely embarrassed that I turned her own story into my own.
"Me-ouch" she mewed.
"Don't" I laughed awkwardly at her cat pun. "Blaze would have attacked you right then" I snickered, closing my locker door shut.
"Oh come on, you know that was a good one-"
"I demand to see the manager this instant!" an angry voice from the front demanded.
"Maybe if I ignore it, they'd all just go away-"
"Cam!" a warm, yet firm voice called out.
Cammie stood straight all of a sudden when a cute, but rugged looking red fox poked his head into the female locker room, his baby blue eyes focusing on Cammie.
"There you are" he smiled in relief. "Andrew spilled water on some guy"
"Is his ex still bringing his dates here?" I asked in shock.
His baby blue orbs glanced my way, in shock as if noticing me for the first time. "Amy, hey!" he grinned boyishly. "Yeah, it's a douche move if you ask me, but I can't calm the fucker down" he groaned, rolling his eyes. "I need my right hand gal to help me out" he said turning his attention back to Cammie, he shot me a wink as a goodbye and pulled his head back out of the locker room.
I nudged Cammie with my elbow and she coughed, straightening herself quickly.
"Mrrreowwww" I purred at her teasingly.
Cammie groaned and glanced at me, " I'll deal with you later" she hissed playfuly, narowing her eyes at me
"Cam!" Pete called after her again.
"Duty calls." she mumbled, flicking me in the shoulder before her blush spread into an award winning smile. She dashed out into the front and I giggled.
"Poor thing."
After clasping the lock on my locker and straitening my name-tag on the heart of my dress, absently putting the piece of paper in my apron's pocket.I waved to the kitchen staff on my way out, and grabbed one of the many trays on the employee table and pocketed a fresh notepad and pen.
I stared at the half-empty restaurant and took a deep breath, I plastered a fake smile across my face, and skipped to the opening door and greeted new customers. The warmth of the place was inviting; since November was close-by, the heating system went up just enough too keep you cool, yet warm, but never to keep you hot and uncomfortable.
I greeted another party of people and I took them to an empty booth. I tucked my tray under my arm, fishing my notepad out; ready to take their orders.
"Welcome to Wacky Waffles Diner everyone, My name's Amy" I paused to jab my thumb at my name tag before speaking up again. " And I'll be your waitress this evening. Today's specials are the Chocolate Fudge Cake and the Wacky Fall Dish." I said handing out menus at the same time.
The group reflected my smile and murmured among themselves.
"Can you give us a minute?"a blue bird said, he had silver eyes and was wearing a black hoodie with green shorts.
"Of course. I'll check on you guys in a few minutes" I nodded, taking my leave to pick up an order I had put in a while ago. After serving the previous booth, I returned to the table and smiled at them. "About ready?" I asked lightly, taking out my notepad again.
They all nodded and glanced at the silver-eyes blue bird expectantly.
"Uh, get us three triple cheese bacon burgers"
"Would you like the combo?" I asked tilting my head to the side a bit.
He blushed.
"Uh, yea what is included in it?" he asked looking at the table
"The burger itself, a side of fries and a jumbo drink of your choice" I said looking at the other members of the table.
They all seemed to like what I said.
"Yeah get the combo Jay" another bird said. This one was black with a red stripe across his chest. He wore an army themed , green, Camouflage T-shirt, with dark jeans.
I wrote it down. "Any desert?" I asked them
"Chocolate cake for me" the light blue bird next to the black one said.
I wrote that down.
"Uhm, what would u recommend?" Jay asked me, glancing upwards to stare at me directly.
"Well" I began, pressing my pencil to my cheek in thought " I'm in love with the strawberry cheesecake" I said truthfully.
"O-Oh? Ok, then I guess I'll have that" he said playing with a salt shaker.
"Kay!" I said with a smile and left to place their order.
"Well looks like your spirit is back up and running" Cassie said smiling at me as she walked by expertly with four dished in hand.
"Yeah, I guess you're right."I grinned.
It was hard not to smile every time I came to work, the staff and customers here just make me happy; there's a warm aura about the place that keeps you on your toes.
I glanced at Pete, who was serving a complimentary helping of water, his eyes glued to the bouncy Cammie. The woman he was serving sputtered at him to stop making a mess and he apologized frantically, promising to get her table cleaned up.
"Cute" I giggled.
After I served my table, I continued to serve others and my smile came back almost immediately. The staff and customers here are the best. There were an equal balance of guys ad girls here from my school who worked here as well as most of the customers were from school. It was like a relaxing hangout or everyone; well except after 7, that's when the bar is opened.
I was wiping down a deserted table when i felt a warm, sloppy kiss on my cheek. I turned around abruptly and groaned loudly at the sight of the culprit.
"Hey babe" he grinned
"That was completely, and utterly disgusting Scourge" I said wiping my face with my hand.
"Don't fight the love baby" he winked and made his way towards the bar the moment I did. He positioned himself on a bar stool, his eyes on me as I maneuvered my way around the bar.
After a few minutes of his mindless staring, I groaned "Whadaya want?" I asked cocking an eyebrow, finally meeting his royal blue eyes.
"Amy's Delight" he joked, flashing me a sinister smile.
"Urggg" I said throwing my arms in the air in surrender. "Seriously though, I haven't seen you around here in a while" I said fixing him his usual drink.
The playful glint in his eyes vanished and he exhaled, taking his shades off, before putting them on the counter. " Trying to clean my act up" he said seriously.
"Everything? Or did something happen?" I asked, putting the glass on the counter before him.
"Baby steps" he smiled sadly. "If I can show Fiona how much I've changed, maybe sh'ed try to do the same" he sighed, throwing back his shot.
"You're still trying to get her back?" i whispered in surprise.
"Get her back? I'll have luck if she even looks at me for five seconds." he coughed out. "Another one" he demanded, pushing his empty glass towards me.
"No. You came in here just now talking about wanting to clean up your act. It starts with your drinking habit Scourge" I said sternly.
"Yes, mother" he teased, rolling his eyes at me. "Do you think that a reason? Me drinking so much?"
"I don't know" I answered honestly. "It helps if you try and talk to her"
"Talk?" he asked in confusion.
"Your communication skills need work" I smiled.
"Talking requires effort, I can only do that after a few drinks"
"But, here you are talking to me in full blown sentences" I teased, fixing him something light.
"You're easy to talk to" he said with a shrug.
I blushed at his compliment and slipped him his drink in a average sized glass this time. He watched the contents and arched his brow at me "It's pink"
"Like me. Didn't you order an Amy's Delight?" I winked.
"you're the best" he chuckled, taking a star and sipping on it. "It's good" he smiled.
"Reach out to her" I smiled warmly.
He nodded, a fresh pool of tears threatening to fall. "Yeah, and hey, I'm sorry about what happened between us.."
"Hey, don't sweat it. Here, you should come to the School Dance this weekend." I offered, handing him a flyer from my pocket. " She'll definitely be there. Ah,my shift's over right now, so I'll see you around okay?"
"Take care of yourself" he saluted with two fingers.
"Cassie can u hold this round? I'm about to clock out of here." I asked the orange cat.
She giggled " As always. " she smiled.
I gave her a broad gin and thanked her. As I made my way towards the double doors that led to the back of the Diner,my boss made an appearance, his pale grey form almost smacking into me. When he laid his large eyes on me, his rough mustache spread across his face as he smiled.
"Amy!" Waffles yelled, in his goofy voice. It was a mixture of a five year old and some cartoon character I saw on TV once.
"Yes sir?" I asked posting myself directly in front of him. He crossed his arms on his stomach and nodded at my greeting.
"Your leaving now aren't you?" he asked, making his way towards the bar, leaning against the counter.
"Yes sir, eight o'clock on the dot" I said looking at the clock.
"Alright, I would like to see you at work again during the remainder of the week, and please take this" he said pushing an envelope towards me.
I took it in my hands and gazed at it for a while before it registered as to what it actually was.
"You're sponsorship?" I asked delightfully
"Don't I give it to you lovely girls every year?" he winked. "Take these flyers with you to hand to the guests." he said giving me a small box. I held it with both hands because of it's wight and nodded at him "Will do." I promised.
"Will I be seeing you there?" I asked
"Well, I didn't have the privilege of attending last year, so I will see to it that I make it this time around" he nodded.
"Count me in too!" Cammie spoke up. "I'm gonna ask P this time."
"P?" Waffles asked, scratching his bald head in confusion. "Is there an new boyfriend I don't know about?"
"There are a lot of things you don't know Boss" Cammie snickered.
"Like what?" he asked intrigued.
"Like the fact you don't know your shirt is on backwards" she snickered.
Waffles glanced down and his rubbery skin turned bright pink as he cleared his throat in a gurgling way and muttered an apology as he excused himself to the bathroom.
"He's such a clutz" Cammie hollered.
'He's the most adorable Boss I've ever had" I snickered. "I'm off okay?"
"Text me!" she called after me.
I dropped the box of flyers on the bench inside the locker room and picked up the corded phone on the wall and punched in Clovers cell.
"WHOEVER THIS IS, THIS BETTER BE IMPORTANT OR ILL HAVE YOU DECAPITATED FOR-"
"Clo...c-chill out" I laughed awkwardly with my sweat dropped.
"Mimi! Hi, what's up?" she asked in a completely different tone.
I shook my head at her and smiled. "I just got Waffles' sponsorship along with a couple flyers for advertising."
I pulled the phone along with me as I made my way towards the locker to hang up my apron
"Awesome, not the flyers, I'll make sure to fold them really small in the party bags. Do you need a ride, I can send Andrew for you."
"Really? I'm starting to think there's a connection between the two of you. Lately he's been doing overtime at your place."
"What? Are you for real? Drew is just my favorite butler. Besides, you don't know if he's saving up fr college or something.."
"Is that Melia?" the familiar accent murmured on the other end.
I heard Clover shushing him and saying that it was me.
"What's he doing in your bedroom?' asked in a teasing tone.
"H-he's helping out!" she stuttered.
"Clover his shift ends at five" I pointed out.
"Do you want the ride or not?!" se whined.
"I'll be waiting " I giggled before hanging up the phone.
I threw my work apron back over the regular hook in my locker that had my name on it and I changed into a pair of jeans and a red shirt and released my quills from the bit to tie them into a regular pony-tail. I locked my locker after grabbing my jacket and bent over to pick up the box with a grunt.
I pushed open the doors leading to the dinner and I waved to Cassie, and rolled my eyes when Scourge sent me a kiss.
I opened the back door, turning around to stop completely dead in my tracks at the sight of him, leaning sheepishly against his black car.
His amber eyes glanced up, his cheeks dusted with a faint blush. I felt the familiar warmth creep up my cheeks and arched a. Row at him.
"I figured I should take you home since I dropped you here..." he smiled boyishly.
"You're something else " I breathed out.
"Here, let me get that." He whispered as he made his way to me, momentarily brushing his warm hands along mine before taking the box from my trembling hands.
"Don't just stand there Pinkie, get in." He grinned, opening the door for me.
Done!
