Mason:People made use of words for situations they did not fully understand and I could not be any more pissed.For instance, the word stalking.Just because I sent a man to follow her everywhere she went today does not mean I was stalking her.I was just simply looking out for her in my own unique way." She got a job? That was quick" I muttered into the phone, dropping the files I was dealing with for my father to sit up straight." Yes. I can see her working the coffee machine so it's clear she has been given the job. I can help you threaten the owner to drop her if you would like" he said to me.I shrugged." No, I will do that myself..call me when she leaves and I will come speak to him" I dropped the call, wanting to go back to the files now but I couldn't concentrate.Why did she always had to find a way to make me out as the bad person when everything I was doing was making sure she would be safe.Jobs were not safe..I could not see her every time, I could not protect her...
Lily:Every human has that point in their life. That point that the embarrassment would be enough for them to wish for the ground to open and swallow them whole.It was unfair that I have had like three of these experiences in my life time, but nothing compared to this moment, as I stood in the coffee shop, my pink underwear in full display and my feet rooted to the ground in shock.They acted quicker than I did, turning away quickly in shy embarrassment for my sake, the books and coffee now long forgotten.I felt the tears sting the corner of my eyes and I blinked quickly to keep them at bay.I had to cover up.Strong hands wrapped around my waist, the apron covering my lower body before I could think of what to do, hands leading me quickly towards the back of the shop.My eyes were open but I was not seeing, not registering who this saviour of mine was." Hey...I will get you a pair of pants trousers from the girls locker room. Stay here okay?" His coaxing sweet voice asked.I want
Lily:When I had said I wanted to go job hunting, it was more like a declaration to me, breaking the bounds and leaving him in awe.For the first few seconds he stared at me, shock permeating his features before he finally cleared his throat. " You came here to enjoy a stress free holiday Lily ...maybe that is not a good idea" I turned back to look at him, the shoes I was about to put on stopping midway in the air as I glared at him." You don't have the right to dictate what I can or can not do" I said simply.I could not see his face because I was crouched over now, but I could hear the desperation in his voice." Yes I can. I am supposed to look out for you remember? And I know you wouldn't understand but working in these parts is not ideal. So many men just lingering around and..."" What if I am starting work because I need a man? Or what? You can get a girlfriend to fuck but I'm not allowed to?" He had gotten up from the chair by now, bus steps not subsiding as he walked over
Mason:Shit. Shit.Her expression was unreadable now. Maybe it was shock or maybe rage, or maybe a mixture of the two.But whatever it was, I did not like it." Oh oops! Thank fully you are a lady, I though no one was home. Silly may bear did not mention you were still here" Lyra said as she scrambled to cover her body.Shit." May bear?" Lily asked, her voice spiced with the kind of disgust I never knew she could have." Lyra go inside. And get dressed..you are leaving now" I said to her, my voice in a small whisper, just enough for her alone to hear but somehow, Lily still heard it." Oh no dont bother chasing your girlfriend out brother....I will just go up in my room and give you both some privacy because it's obvious that you need it" I hated how her voice sounded. So cold, unyielding." Lyra go up!" Lyra jumped, again, understanding that I meant business as she turned around, slamming the door shut in my face.I could see Lily let out the breath she was holding before she trie
Lily:" And the both of you did not think it would be nice to stop?" When Taylor got like this, it was hard to reason with her, it seemed as though yesterday had made her meaner, more determined to tell us how wrong this was.She had woken us both earlier this morning and made us sit at the table, her eyes darting from each of our faces." We have...we are trying to" I paused, that excuse was not good enough, and her eyes told me so.For a moment, she still held that stern expression until finally, her look softened.Then she turned to face mason aggressively." You know I don't even blame my best friend! It's not her fault that you came into her life to seduce her..you are supposed to be the more mature one. Does this sound right to you? I can't even get that crazy image out of my head." Her voice has gone up a notch and now, she was beginning to amuse even Mason. I saw his lips curve into a small smile and I was not close enough to warn him that smiling when Taylor was in lecture
Lily:The smell of the alcohol now felt more pungent as I rushed through the crowd, trying to find her dyed pink hair. Maybe it was the neon lights, or just the sheer fear that had engulfed me, but I could not find it anywhere in the crowd.Shit. That should be near impossible." Well well well" a hand grasped me from the noise into a secluded room.I could still hear the booming of the music, but this time, it seemed to be muffled down, the face of Sam staring at me.I resisted the urge to roll my eyes and tried to turn away but she stopped me, eyes glinting." And where do you think you are going? Oh, you think joining my uncle's family would mean you and I will turn buddies or what? You are very mistaken dear girl" " I don't need you and I to be friends. If you will excuse me, I need to go!" I was trying not to raise my voice, I could not afford to lose control and spend more time with her than I intended to do." Don't talk to me like that..I did a small background check on you.
