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?”204Please respect copyright.PENANA85ta03ld11
204Please respect copyright.PENANAnFhy7WwKKL
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.”204Please respect copyright.PENANA4waxy1oZDR
204Please respect copyright.PENANA9rXiYq3wW8
“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.”
204Please respect copyright.PENANABr9cwzU3nG
“Why are you even doing all of this? We are not related at all.”204Please respect copyright.PENANALrtJ6wiJqQ
204Please respect copyright.PENANAnJ9tVPVOJK
“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.”204Please respect copyright.PENANAuZ2QjJ8UvQ
204Please respect copyright.PENANAjUijnSUzvR
“What does that mean? I’m my own person.”204Please respect copyright.PENANAS20NkCKLLs

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.”
204Please respect copyright.PENANAXP8Zhhk48K
“So your stalking?”204Please respect copyright.PENANAgwYyzRzCrI
204Please respect copyright.PENANAA9mheJ8Q8T
“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.”
204Please respect copyright.PENANAsVsO5ukwkN
“Yea yea I need a lecture right now. They don’t even notice it.”204Please respect copyright.PENANAs79l1AfNUx
204Please respect copyright.PENANApIawd1vGAX
“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?”204Please respect copyright.PENANA9WXRfDyVWO
204Please respect copyright.PENANADF2ub4QkS7
“Sure you can say that.”204Please respect copyright.PENANAMJmPz9irtX
204Please respect copyright.PENANAQAwshCkHag
“I’m glad doing this worked. I had another plan that wouldn’t lead to you being happy.”204Please respect copyright.PENANAEQRbBi1j4B
204Please respect copyright.PENANAk7rLtQvyf8
“Do I even want to know?”
204Please respect copyright.PENANAOcdGKOLMc7
“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.”204Please respect copyright.PENANAZKRdfKyDJq
204Please respect copyright.PENANAtFHZATle3p
I was walking off to the kitchen and stopped when I heard her say, “Are you gonna go dress shopping while your here too?”204Please respect copyright.PENANAAQPKNTpUUJ
204Please respect copyright.PENANA5QkkjgzBnH
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?”204Please respect copyright.PENANAPyknkOly3C
204Please respect copyright.PENANAoyOBE2jm51
“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.”204Please respect copyright.PENANAUvgB1zMWRn
204Please respect copyright.PENANAJNvD8EV22A
“Oh and just who is the naked woman going to be?”204Please respect copyright.PENANAfXN774MPRS
204Please respect copyright.PENANAR6G06TyeSx
“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.”204Please respect copyright.PENANALfZBCAeK5L
204Please respect copyright.PENANAZ6MSoA9RbH
“I have no idea what your talking about.”204Please respect copyright.PENANA3iYzpbgKA5
204Please respect copyright.PENANAguDElZOinp
“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.”204Please respect copyright.PENANA4dQPk3BgFU
204Please respect copyright.PENANARf0lHSbRHR
“Only because it's adorable.”204Please respect copyright.PENANA2yarkSeeJL
204Please respect copyright.PENANAaRvUjafSmx
“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.”204Please respect copyright.PENANAtDG48HyJgv
204Please respect copyright.PENANAwKIKr0To0V
“It’s very annoying to deal with.”204Please respect copyright.PENANAZT8KN4f73q
204Please respect copyright.PENANAjZN3FYZ63q
“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.”
204Please respect copyright.PENANA4YLhLKA83k
“Which is what I was trying to do earlier but someone just had too much energy to leave me be.”
204Please respect copyright.PENANAjOPesu7IhY
“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.”204Please respect copyright.PENANAHZZpEsu3PN
204Please respect copyright.PENANAFWEGR28JZs
“Oh? And what are they? I might’ve seen them before.”
204Please respect copyright.PENANAxd93B8tcBc
“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.”204Please respect copyright.PENANAc5Ad4siglM
204Please respect copyright.PENANAIEXRc3tXQp
“Ghost Orchids or any orchid maybe.”
204Please respect copyright.PENANAhGTJPmJ6Ki
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.”
204Please respect copyright.PENANAU1WOmpbC5y
“Only after you tell me who this woman is.”204Please respect copyright.PENANAIs1ekPbnQd
204Please respect copyright.PENANAmFAHLYD8zh
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.”
204Please respect copyright.PENANAaxxVgy75BT
“Just?”204Please respect copyright.PENANAjwoJu0pskM
204Please respect copyright.PENANAfROjLj2bEX
“Oh will you just please.”
204Please respect copyright.PENANArXAMOgnLOg
“Should I get up and curtsey?”204Please respect copyright.PENANAUWGpRPVMKu
204Please respect copyright.PENANAEYV0FUG3Q5
“Whatever helps you sleep better at night honey.”
204Please respect copyright.PENANA0h3m53JbSt
She snickered and pulled me in tighter, “I love you so much.”204Please respect copyright.PENANASXyd5r6GSW
204Please respect copyright.PENANAOYQoUC6i68
“I love you too.”204Please respect copyright.PENANAfBZPcnQFz5
204Please respect copyright.PENANAUtnWEFTxiJ
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?”204Please respect copyright.PENANANOfY0cL0dq
204Please respect copyright.PENANAQPOWPHpMjX
“Yes and it was absolutely hilarious.”
