Soda Pop Outsiders Novels & Stories

If they already saw me as an outsider, why was I still trying so hard to belong? I scoffed, "I don't want anything. I wish you and your family a lifetime of happiness." With that, I turned and went to the bedroom to pack my things. Sophie followed me into the room and slapped me across the face. "It's New Year's! What kind of attitude is that? It's just an apple. Do you have to turn the whole house upside down over something so small? Julius already feels awkward in this family. After your little scene, just how embarrassed do you think he is?

Paula Deandro: The daughter of a notorious mafia boss, seductive, privileged, and untouchable. Silas Creek: A brooding, poor young man whose father owes a life-altering debt to the Deandro family. . . . The first time Paula saw Silas Creek, he was shirtless under the golden heat, swinging an axe at firewood behind the Deandro estate. Muscles strained. Sweat glistened. His jaw was hard, eyes harder.

she chirped, “I’m Maddie, I’ll be your waitress tonight. Can I get you fine folks something to drink?” “We’re not sure what is available, Maddie,” Lucian said gravely. “Oh! Well, we have soda, tea, water, and beers.” “Tea,” I said, seeing some confusion on both twins’ faces. We had tea and alcohol, but soda didn’t get brought through the barrier often.

‘Because there’s an outsider inside their city. ***

“The Betty’s come by Touchdown Tavern all the time. They have become like family. And tonight, away from prying eyes and sloppy drunks, we have the place to ourselves, courtesy of them.” Ophelia opens her arms wide to the small space, but unlike Camila’s date at Big Steaks, this feels so much nicer and more intimate. We sit down, and as I open my menu, I can’t help but glance up at Ophelia. “You know, for being the ‘enemy,’ you’re pretty spectacular.” She grins. “Oh? Is that so?” “Yeah, but I’m pretty sure you’re just secretly an Ozark fan in hiding. You can’t be against the best team in the AFA!”

" Lukas could empathize with Robin. They continued to chat on their way to the cinema. Lukas ended up buying soda and popcorn for Robin. Robin couldn't help but find the soda and popcorn strange. She hadn't eaten junk food like that in such a long time, after all. In fact, she hadn't been to the cinema for ages. Robin pursed her lips and took the popcorn from Lukas. "Thank you. I feel a lot like a young lady after seeing these," she said with a smile. Lukas chuckled upon hearing that and said, "You're still a young lady in my eyes."

I say without a flinch. She was dumbfounded and unable to speak. We just simply stared at each other while a complete silence took over the entire place until we heard the crunching sound of someone munching over some sort of chips. We both turn around in Fugly's direction. "Don't mind me, just continue what you're doing," he said while eating popcorn and drinking a soda. Demons don’t eat but for the sake of making fun of us, he is doing an excellent job. The sound of the soda being intentionally sipped soundly with a straw is very annoying.

I get us some refreshments and sit opposite her, she looks at all the different types of soda. “Take whatever you like Lizzy” I say as I sit, she looks at the collection of soda’s and snacks. She points to the can of pepsi max, I smile at her “Of course, you can have them all if you like” She just smiles, then surprises us all. “Thank you” Lizzy says just above a whisper, it's our turn to go wide eyed.

She sipped on her cocktail and continued with her explanation. "That said, we have millionaires and billionaires as clients here Lorraine. That's why we keep it close. There are no sluts, whores, nor strippers in our list of sugar babies, almost all of them are socialites just like yourself. Most will want to have sex with you. While the older daddies, usually just want the companion of a beautiful young woman by their side. Just because they can. As for boundaries of sex, that's for you and your sugar daddy to talk about, and will remain private amongst you both." My turn on sipping my cheap soda. But she quickly ordered my favorite vodka cherry. "It's on me, just because you took your time

"What do you have in mind?" "A couple of friends in the backyard with music and drinks. Just something chill." Mia looked at me. "Are you game?" Every part of me screamed no. But I didn’t want to be the killjoy. "Fine," I said. "But we’re driving ourselves." The house wasn’t far, just a few blocks off the main road but the moment we stepped inside, I knew this wasn’t “chill.” There were already at least twenty people in the backyard.
