Sorry for the shortish chapter... Thanks for all the favs and follows, you guys made my day. :)
You guys are all wonderful.
CHAPTER 2:
Sabrina POV
I can't believe that Puck was actually going to help me. It was literally unbelievable. He really has grown up.
After Granny and the others had left, I began rummaging through the shelves, looking for a cookbook.
"What are you doing, Grimm?" Puck asked, coming behind me. Our closeness secretly both alarmed and thrilled me but I pretended that it meant nothing to me.
"Looking for a cookbook." I say shortly.
"Um… Alright…" He said, slightly surprised by my tone, and I immediately felt bad.
"Sorry Puck, but it's just that with my friends back and all I'd rather not be making dinner." I say, pulling out a cookbook entitled Cooking Made Easy.
He smiles slightly. "It's fine. But maybe we can actually have fun doing this?" He suggests shyly.
"I'd love that." I tell him, smiling.
I'm genuinely surprised when the two of us begin cooking. We cook, talk and continue our playful banter. But it feels relaxed, easy.
It shocks me when the stove dings and the macaroni and cheese is finished, and by the look on Puck's face, he was surprised as well.
"You know, Grimm. This was actually really fun. Maybe we can make dinner again tomorrow?" He suggests, not quite looking at me.
Was this sort of him asking me out? I don't know, but I'll take my chances.
"That'd be great. Plus, then we won't have to suffer through Granny's multicolored foods." I say, grinning and Puck smiles back, looking genuinely delighted by the idea of us cooking together again.
We bring out the mac and cheese and a few bowls as well. Everyone is already seated at the table, and when Granny sees us she beams.
"You didn't burn down the house, libelings. Thank you very much." She said, and Puck looked offended.
"Come on Old Lady, you know that I wouldn't burn down this house-it has all of my prank supplies in it!" He says, and I can't help but laugh.
"You know Puck… Maybe it wouldn't be so bad if the house burned down in that case…" I tease, and he mock glares at me.
"STOP FLIRTING, I'M HUNGRY!" Daphne shouts, and I feel my face heat up.
"Shut up Daph." I mutter, passing her a bowl of mac and cheese.
When Granny gets her bowl she gasps. "Oh libelings! You forgot to use the purple cheese!" She says, sounding completely horrified.
Sarah looks a little disgusted. "Um… Purple cheese?" I ignore her.
"Granny, Puck and I found real cheese-you know… Yellow and tastes normal…" I say, and she looks sad.
"Alright, but I can guarantee it won't taste as good as the purple cheese does." I nod, pretending to agree with her.
Puck and I sit down in the only empty seats- two right next to each other.
Mom looks at the two of us. "Something's changed with you two…" Her voice trails off.
Dad immediately looks up. "Nothing changed, right?" He implores me.
I laugh. "Puck and I… I think we've come to a truce mostly. No real fighting so far, and we managed to have fun while being forced to make a meal together-real improvement, huh?"
"Is that it, 'Brina?" Uncle Jake asks in a teasing voice. I blush furiously and nod.
I see Randy looking at us suspiciously, and internally roll my eyes-Puck and I were just acting friendly, you guys… No need to freak out.
Then I rethink that statement and realize that it is something that is worthy of freaking out for. Puck and I had never really gotten along in a friendly manner. As enemies, yes. Allies, yes. Fighters, yes. Just about anything BUT friends we've been. This is something new.
Oh well. I really hope that it stays this way. And maybe eventually we could maybe become something more than that…?
I can hope, right?
Puck POV
She agreed to make dinner again tomorrow.
That was all that was running through my head.
There were no words to describe how happy I am.
I was really hoping that this… Whatever it was right now… was going to continue and that I might eventually get the courage to ask her out… Maybe.
Possibly.
We'll see.
After eating dinner, I begin walking to my room. I see all the humans… what are their names? Sarah, Jessica maybe, Matthew possibly, Kevin I think and Randy. Right? Maybe not. Yeah, them walking to their rooms.
I really hope that they don't find out about magic and Everafters, because that would be a disaster.
I'm about to enter my room, more like lair actually, when Sab-GRIMM walks up to me.
"I'm actually really excited to make dinner tomorrow. This was fun." She said, blushing slightly.
"It was pretty fun. I'm looking forward to it too Grimm." I say.
She smiles shyly at me. "Goodnight Grimm." I tell her.
"Goodnight Puck." She says. She hesitates and then steps closer to me.
My breath catches. What is she doing?
She leans towards me and kisses my cheek gently.
"Bye Puck." She said softly before escaping to her room.
What just happened? I wonder, absentmindedly touching the spot that she had kissed me.
I had no idea that someone else had seen…
Randy POV
I have to make Sabrina like me again-ever since I had first met her I had liked her. She was pretty, funny, strong, smart and so much more. You really can't blame me.
But that other kid… Puck I think, liked her too. And I think that she liked him also.
After all, she had just kissed his cheek-which means that she was hoping for him to realize that she liked him.
But I'm going to try and get her to be mine before he gets the chance to.
