Leaving the kitchen and into the living room I pushed Mia’s feet off the couch to sit next to her. The baffled look she gave me almost made me burst out laughing but I held it in, “Want some?”258Please respect copyright.PENANAOze8kbkwYm
258Please respect copyright.PENANAwdqqqVfbDj
She groaned and crossed her arms, obviously annoyed with me, “Why can’t you just leave me alone. I got the stupid measurements for the stupid dress. I was even cordial whenever you talked to me.”258Please respect copyright.PENANASzFyItgYzq
258Please respect copyright.PENANAopMlUcvhfw
“Saying only yes or no isn’t being cordial. I don’t want you to be a robot but you shouldn’t be a little asshole either.”
258Please respect copyright.PENANAo9f5qTxvIx
“Why are you even doing all of this? We are not related at all.”258Please respect copyright.PENANAYrcfybuf2E
258Please respect copyright.PENANAuxYMlCRkdK
“Doesn’t mean we can’t get along. Plus I know this is all a facade. You genuinely are nice and especially because of your dad.”258Please respect copyright.PENANAiPkVYJzcLB
258Please respect copyright.PENANAYLjUKehMa6
“What does that mean? I’m my own person.”258Please respect copyright.PENANAUXUzDdjS9c
258Please respect copyright.PENANAiAUgmjoM9H
I sighed and put down my plate, sad that I didn't make more. I mean who doesn’t like midday waffles, “Yes but we get most of our traits from our parents whether we like it or not. You are kind. Even though you don’t want my mom to see and act like a little shit to me, I notice the nice little gestures you do after only being here for a day.”
258Please respect copyright.PENANA1DBO4tJnK9
“So your stalking?”258Please respect copyright.PENANAxnviPResNV
258Please respect copyright.PENANA27XXpAPmub
“No, just observant. People who are hiding something from a certain someone only look out for them and not the other people who may see what they're doing.”
258Please respect copyright.PENANAH673EwxFs2
“Yea yea I need a lecture right now. They don’t even notice it.”258Please respect copyright.PENANAWUH9PQVvnG
258Please respect copyright.PENANACVyZyLY3y5
“Because you don’t want them to. I grew up without my parents. Even though I was fine it was tough. Don’t push them away just because Mia,” She pushed herself further into the couch and quietly pondered to herself. I wasn’t sure how long she’d continue keeping to herself, “So are we on equal playing fields now?”258Please respect copyright.PENANAdwd1eYt8Yy
258Please respect copyright.PENANAmka19wRNyk
“Sure you can say that.”258Please respect copyright.PENANAW4R8iCZ7pk
258Please respect copyright.PENANACyPozENrG9
“I’m glad doing this worked. I had another plan that wouldn’t lead to you being happy.”258Please respect copyright.PENANAwZTSe5EimA
258Please respect copyright.PENANA5ugKMn1EHZ
“Do I even want to know?”
258Please respect copyright.PENANAqYaRnsSOMt
“Nope but it had a lot more lectures involved,” I got up and stretched then bent over to pick my plate up, “I’m gonna go find Faye and see what she’s been up to.”258Please respect copyright.PENANAExrGdIwr5h
258Please respect copyright.PENANAN3HIozuoJa
I was walking off to the kitchen and stopped when I heard her say, “Are you gonna go dress shopping while your here too?”258Please respect copyright.PENANAH35a4WA1jR
258Please respect copyright.PENANAvej7R79UAp
A smile formed on my lips, not one that was smug or anything, “I don’t see why not. You wanna come with me and mom?”258Please respect copyright.PENANA09IKetITnX
258Please respect copyright.PENANAacf5l6DEMP
“Yea,” And that right there is progress.

I huddled closer to Faye feeling wind tickle up under the length of my dress. She placed an arm around me as we both looked into the distance. We sat in comfortable silence only watching the sunset after having walked to and around the park, “The view is so nice. Wouldn’t mind waking up to this and a naked woman beside me.”258Please respect copyright.PENANA2gOTVVc7iy
258Please respect copyright.PENANAOE7srt4LgB
“Oh and just who is the naked woman going to be?”258Please respect copyright.PENANABK7i0LO64Y
258Please respect copyright.PENANA7vZdQEaY0O
“Hmmm well she’s a bit stern but nice when your on her good side. She’s the same height as me but wears heels so often that she sees herself as the tallest one.”258Please respect copyright.PENANAJly5KFJwsB
258Please respect copyright.PENANAl4r4TeGGCN
“I have no idea what your talking about.”258Please respect copyright.PENANAHo6dsajwmx
258Please respect copyright.PENANAnVnks2MqSj
“Yes right she also won’t admit to things even when most of the time I'm right. She likes gardening and forcing me to bring all the plants back out when winter ends and when it begins. She likes to continuously watch me struggle at yoga.”258Please respect copyright.PENANAdYYKUFejOU
258Please respect copyright.PENANAnpJLmZCwhD
“Only because it's adorable.”258Please respect copyright.PENANAl27OtRmtup
258Please respect copyright.PENANATYVl69h2vB
“Mhm. Her hair gets really curly when it’s wet so she gets mad whenever i throw her into the pool or after i seduced her into shower sex.”258Please respect copyright.PENANA1Lt8SpG2ul
258Please respect copyright.PENANA5pMVvQ0dDa
“It’s very annoying to deal with.”258Please respect copyright.PENANAirIMgHHkBW
258Please respect copyright.PENANApoEFkPmPPH
“But like you said, it's ‘adorable’. She likes reading in the little spare time I give her and endlessly talking about the philosophy she studies just for fun.”
258Please respect copyright.PENANAgo07brdOzW
“Which is what I was trying to do earlier but someone just had too much energy to leave me be.”
258Please respect copyright.PENANANefYHx4xNX
“It’s your fault for looking like you wanted to be bothered. And anyway, under the naked eye my woman has two tattoos. They’re fun things to trace after a night of fun activities.”258Please respect copyright.PENANAEZYPYncQfo
258Please respect copyright.PENANArsCY7CgJvN
“Oh? And what are they? I might’ve seen them before.”
258Please respect copyright.PENANA8FE8M2RSfa
“One is a sword with roses surrounding it on the side of her stomach. And the others are just thorns on the side of the upper right thigh. What are your favorite flowers in case I need to lighten up your day.”258Please respect copyright.PENANAsbE2vUyTJ0
258Please respect copyright.PENANAf9UtrwVx0y
“Ghost Orchids or any orchid maybe.”
258Please respect copyright.PENANAtgxlDwnoz2
I looked down at my phone, noting it to be almost nine. And with the sunset ending soon we’d be submerged in darkness since the park somehow doesn’t have lamps or anything, “Should we make our way back? I don’t want us to be here when it's dark out.”
258Please respect copyright.PENANAXCgmoijs1s
“Only after you tell me who this woman is.”258Please respect copyright.PENANAdPS0o8VIRX
258Please respect copyright.PENANAYphfg72uzg
I tried getting up but she pulled me back down and I was surprised she did so so easily. I scoffed and just laughed it off knowing the little things like this is why I love to bother her so much, “It’s just the amazing and intelligent Faye Candice Hart.”
258Please respect copyright.PENANAfag2d2S7w0
“Just?”258Please respect copyright.PENANAPUFTnbpaDf
258Please respect copyright.PENANAORF2aDBZS7
“Oh will you just please.”
258Please respect copyright.PENANAhr5nuzwZVN
“Should I get up and curtsey?”258Please respect copyright.PENANAVaDblz66r0
258Please respect copyright.PENANAVD5lK3HZ6o
“Whatever helps you sleep better at night honey.”
258Please respect copyright.PENANAXEooLXFKNx
She snickered and pulled me in tighter, “I love you so much.”258Please respect copyright.PENANAm1rZ1kOE0y
258Please respect copyright.PENANAvPUIXQcoA7
“I love you too.”258Please respect copyright.PENANApXkWFgTYNG
258Please respect copyright.PENANAOa4vS7NbZz
We both whipped our heads around to a sound far off in the distance and we took that as our cue to leave, “Lets go before your new friend sends out a search party for you. You do know she questioned me like I was under investigation before we left, right?”258Please respect copyright.PENANAwjhs3Qjg7C
258Please respect copyright.PENANAlc7wwv6XQj
“Yes and it was absolutely hilarious.”
