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?”99Please respect copyright.PENANAKN4urGtrhY
99Please respect copyright.PENANAIFC3j2rP2E
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.”99Please respect copyright.PENANAv5DftZhj7z
99Please respect copyright.PENANAeH99RqeXwn
“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.”
99Please respect copyright.PENANAo1zX3QIZG3
“Why are you even doing all of this? We are not related at all.”99Please respect copyright.PENANABVxMY2LFGo
99Please respect copyright.PENANAUwXCJxMixP
“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.”99Please respect copyright.PENANAOCnwDC8YUf
99Please respect copyright.PENANAYn1NJuoN3a
“What does that mean? I’m my own person.”99Please respect copyright.PENANA4UNpmt6nm3
99Please respect copyright.PENANAJ3s6BYEg1r
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.”
99Please respect copyright.PENANAnSuQscbWEZ
“So your stalking?”99Please respect copyright.PENANAiJTHhSJVMu
99Please respect copyright.PENANAjxZPTgsIfm
“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.”
99Please respect copyright.PENANAF2gHSOH6AT
“Yea yea I need a lecture right now. They don’t even notice it.”99Please respect copyright.PENANAJeoTbyOFud
99Please respect copyright.PENANAFtfUrmiS1W
“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?”99Please respect copyright.PENANAo180sPUKT2
99Please respect copyright.PENANAKeb2hOADWo
“Sure you can say that.”99Please respect copyright.PENANAUIp203CKjm
99Please respect copyright.PENANAzMFdODdOhH
“I’m glad doing this worked. I had another plan that wouldn’t lead to you being happy.”99Please respect copyright.PENANAdmuRq2yqJt
99Please respect copyright.PENANAo4AdWE3g8Z
“Do I even want to know?”
99Please respect copyright.PENANAUhdQ0gLlAt
“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.”99Please respect copyright.PENANAAOPBIBQnDh
99Please respect copyright.PENANAgKd2zM5IG7
I was walking off to the kitchen and stopped when I heard her say, “Are you gonna go dress shopping while your here too?”99Please respect copyright.PENANAkHnXPB9sAm
99Please respect copyright.PENANA2Jjl5Hvfrj
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?”99Please respect copyright.PENANAA7UYyMsEKy
99Please respect copyright.PENANAPw7F6G9fb0
“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.”99Please respect copyright.PENANA0Oxqu2XH2K
99Please respect copyright.PENANAUBpkziUYYw
“Oh and just who is the naked woman going to be?”99Please respect copyright.PENANAXE2ZnGFcNq
99Please respect copyright.PENANAkWf8OVNHQC
“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.”99Please respect copyright.PENANAYhqsglZigz
99Please respect copyright.PENANAMgvH4tAhqT
“I have no idea what your talking about.”99Please respect copyright.PENANApIefUF4RNp
99Please respect copyright.PENANAysvv1fKma7
“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.”99Please respect copyright.PENANA6yz7RRPFcY
99Please respect copyright.PENANAfdlxhIMzkw
“Only because it's adorable.”99Please respect copyright.PENANASkB6nv4rne
99Please respect copyright.PENANARX9ZbgqpDA
“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.”99Please respect copyright.PENANAIa3pr48IUG
99Please respect copyright.PENANAZn5unnfH5B
“It’s very annoying to deal with.”99Please respect copyright.PENANAO3Vdn6pj1l
99Please respect copyright.PENANAnFx2zkPw6B
“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.”
99Please respect copyright.PENANAe8kvzxZ6is
“Which is what I was trying to do earlier but someone just had too much energy to leave me be.”
99Please respect copyright.PENANAAl9P7YqP3h
“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.”99Please respect copyright.PENANAPCw4h605GJ
99Please respect copyright.PENANAqk8fJ31Nt1
“Oh? And what are they? I might’ve seen them before.”
99Please respect copyright.PENANApgWZGS0Jd3
“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.”99Please respect copyright.PENANAySc7VzudtJ
99Please respect copyright.PENANASFRBCww8jF
“Ghost Orchids or any orchid maybe.”
99Please respect copyright.PENANAnFCaYFncRy
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.”
99Please respect copyright.PENANAbPFXu0UZn8
“Only after you tell me who this woman is.”99Please respect copyright.PENANAM0mlXud1fO
99Please respect copyright.PENANALFIai4jQKn
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.”
99Please respect copyright.PENANAGkdVUsOy1h
“Just?”99Please respect copyright.PENANAwYc6Jpidxd
99Please respect copyright.PENANANkAIZ3089y
“Oh will you just please.”
99Please respect copyright.PENANAsCHjWe4qgz
“Should I get up and curtsey?”99Please respect copyright.PENANAhZsQwHyo1h
99Please respect copyright.PENANAqVVuQlnVwe
“Whatever helps you sleep better at night honey.”
99Please respect copyright.PENANATQGDMDIrDj
She snickered and pulled me in tighter, “I love you so much.”99Please respect copyright.PENANAq34wc2FdZ0
99Please respect copyright.PENANAUymiu751BE
“I love you too.”99Please respect copyright.PENANAACIvkRUFda
99Please respect copyright.PENANATOLGmzxqEd
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?”99Please respect copyright.PENANARwjQms4dYi
99Please respect copyright.PENANA0RMQmtzrgp
“Yes and it was absolutely hilarious.”
