Chapter 28
Narrator's pov
-
Hate was a strong word but nothing else could compare to the way she felt about her friends right now, wanting to scrape her nails into their skin and peel it off inch by inch
Damn girl, that's some dark, freaky shit... Hmu tho.
"I swear to God" Kate groaned
"Relax mouse, we're just having fun" Ethan chuckled
"My pain isn't fun" Kate pouted
"Pain? Holdup, what do you mean?" He asked
"Do you want to kiss her or something?" Jamie asked
Kate's eyes widened at the two teenagers and her lips parted slowly
"What? No!" She yelled a bit too loudly
Jamie raised a brow at the girl before slowly glancing to Ethan who held the same facial expression, both thinking the exact same thing but not wanting to push it at the same time
"Uh huh. Sure" Jamie chuckled softly
"I'm serious!" Kate said
"Oh yeah, we know" Ethan snickered
"Goddammit, this soda is in places I don't even look" Jamie groaned as she unhooked her apron from around her back
"I'm sorry, but you guys wouldn't shut up" Kate pouted
"It's okay, I've bathed in piss already. A bit of soda is nothing" Ethan smiled
"Boy what-"
"I'm kidding, shhh" He chuckled
"Oh-"
"Or am I?"
"Ewww" Kate rolled her eyes as she adjusted her high pony
"So how's it been, you know.. Living away from us?" he asked
"Shit. Just plain shit. It's so quiet and cold and lonely. I can't fucking focus these days with all the silence" Kate groaned
"You.. You can't focus because it's quite?" Jamie chuckled
"yes. It's weird. I'm so accustomed to being around you two for so many years, the music the screams the cleaning. Everything was organized, we all had a job and we all helped each other. Now it's just... Me. In a big ass house and a roommate that uses all of the hot water" Kate groaned
"Awwww she misses us" Ethan pouted
"I do. I really do. Please come sleepover" Kate pouted
"Have a sleep over with a world famous actress? Fuck yeah" Jamie chuckled
"Bitch you're coming to keep my company" Kate glared
"Yeah yeah, that too" Jamie giggled
"If it helps, things feel weird without you too" Ethan said
"Yep, now I just want to kill him and you're not there to hold me back"
"And I don't have anyone to practice my bar tending skills on anymore" Ethan pouted
"I'm not getting drunk everynight just because you want to impress some bartender, just go and ask him out" Jamie said
"I don't even know if he's not straight" Ethan mumbled
"He rolls up his jeans and his t shirt, plus he wears a flannel and all of his clothes are tight. He's pretty not straight to me" Jamie said
"You should really try it Ethan, you never know what can happen" Kate smiled
"Maybe... I don't know.. Just, maybe" He said
The sound of a small bell going off by the door, alerted Kate that a new customer had arrived to the diner. The brunette glanced up to see a guy wearing a hoodie over his head but a black hat underneath, his hands were shoved into his pockets as he held his head down and walked over to an empty booth in front of the bar where the three teenagers were standing
"I swear if we get robbed right now" Jamie said
"I'll make and scene and y'all make a run for it. Someone has to be the sacrifice" Ethan snickered
"Oh hush, for all we know.. It's just another customer" Kate said
"Oh so you're brave brave. Well go ahead and serve your customer, KATE WILSON OF 168 MAHAICA AVENUE" Jamie yelled loudly, causing the man to glance in their direction
"OH MY FUCKING GOD, ARE YOU TRYING TO GET ME KILLED" Kate hissed at the girl
"Killed by who? A normal looking customer?" Jamie laughed
"Oh for heaven sakes" Kate rolled her eyes
"Psst" a sound echoed through the diner, Kate glanced in the direction to see the hoodie man trying to catch her attention
"I'll be right with you sir" Kate said before turning to her friends
"If I die, tell my story" Kate whispered as she grabbed her notepad
"Yeah. It'll be all over the news, Sex restricted teenager murdered by hoodie man before her month deal ended" Ethan smirked as he watched the brunette walk over to the table
Kate spun on her heels and gave the boy a glare before flicking him off. Ethan simply smiled and pretended to catch the middle finger then shoving it down his pants, earning a smack behind the head from Jamie and a gag from Kate
"Sorry sir, what will you be ordering today?" Kate smiled sweetly as she stood in front of the man
"How about you sit your pretty self in that chair over there so we can have a conversation" The person said in a deep voice, Kate furrowed her brows
"Excuse me, what?" Kate asked
"You heard me. Sit. Now" the man hissed, Kate could feel her heart starting to pound harder in her chest
"Sir-"
"Oh jeez girl, it's just me. Sit you stubborn ass" The person as they glanced up with those icy blue eyes
"What th- AUTUMN!?" Kate hissed
"In the flesh" The actress smirked as she motioned for Kate to sit in the chair across from her
The brunette furrowed her brows as she slowly walked over to the booth, sliding into the red soft seat
"You scared me" She said
"I'd like to do something else to you but apparently I'm not allowed" Autumn mumbled in a low voice
"Huh?" Kate asked
"Nothing, don't worry about it" the actress quickly covered up
"What are you doing here, and why are you dressed like someone who just murdered a waitress in the woods?" Kate asked
"That's... Oddly specific, is everything okay at home?" Autumn chuckled
"Well I live with an annoying ass roommate who refused to change the temperature and the fact that she hates me" Kate glared
"Hey. You know that's not true" Autumn pouted
"I change the temperature everytime I work out" she snickered
"Dumbass" Kate rolled her eyes
"Alright listen, I'm here because May is gonna take away my car unless we do this" She said
"Do what?"
"Our little agreement" Autumn mumbled
"Oh.. I-...im not kissing you Autumn" Kate whispered, the raven hair girl raised a brow
"Um I was talking about getting to know each other? But damn.. Is kissing me always on your mind?" Autumn smirked
"Wha- NO" Kate quickly covered, causing the raven hair girl to raise a brow
Autumn slowly leaned across the table, her blue icy eyes locking onto Kate's brown orbs while she run her tongue over her bottom lip, biting them softly as her eyes flickered from Kate's down to her lips then returning back to her eyes. Kate swallowed a lump in her throat
"Anyways. Let's start" Autumn smirked, leaning back in her seat and watching the brunette snap out of her gaze
"What?"
"We're learning about each other sweetheart, focus" Autumn chuckled
"Oh, yeah right. Sorry"
"Stop apologizing" Autumn said sternly
"Where do we start?" Kate asked
"What's your bra siz-"
"Excuse me?"
"You look like you wear neon underwea-"
"What the-"
"How often do you get your period-"
"I REALLY DON'T SEE HOW THIS IS RELEVANT" Kate hissed
"She said we have to know each other inside and out. Be comfortable with each other" Autumn shrugged
"That doesn't mean you need to find out what colour my period blood is" Kate hissed
"Dear God!" Jamie shouted from across the bar
"I don't do this 'people' thing. Help me?" Autumn mumbled, Kate couldn't help but raise a brow at the girl
"Alright. What's your name?" She asked
"Really?" Autumn glared
"IT'S A START"
"Fine. My name's Autumn Hester"
"Hi Autumn, I'm Kate Wilson"
"Sup bict-"
"Autumn!"
"What!"
"Oh for heaven sakes" Kate groaned and buried her face into her palm
Autumn sighed and glanced around the room, seeing everyone focused and busy. The chatters and sound of clinking glasses were too overpowering to even have a conversation
Her eyes then went to Kate once again, the brunette fidgeted with her fingers as she avoided Autumn's eyes. The raven hair girl titled her head to the side, her eyes trailing over Kate's face, that cute pointed nose looked rosy, her soft pink lips were caught between her teeth, her cheeks seemed pale
"My name is Autumn, I've been in movies since I could blink. My parents are a mess and so is my life. But there's this brunette I ran into that's been making my life a living hell, she's actually cute and I like the taste of her lips" Autumn whispered, her dark blue piercing into Kate's as she leaned across the table
The blood then ran to the brunette's cheeks, staining red from embarrassment. Not only her cheeks, but her whole face turned red. Though the ears had been hidden among the messy strands of her hair, it was obvious that they were as rosy as her face.
Autumn hadn't known she felt more than she expressed until then, when she saw Kate turn to hide in the most gentle way. Her arms burning with shyness, and her stomach becoming a dome because of the butterflies that swarmed
"Oh my God" Kate muttered under her breath
"What? Too much information?" Autumn chuckled
"No. Not at all" Kate giggled softly, her eyes finally raising to meet icy blue orbs that seemed to relax
"Listen, you're working and I just came in out of nowhere. How about we talk about this tonight, it'll be just us and no one throwing pancakes around the room" Autumn chuckled, Kate bit her lip gently as she nodded
"Will you give me a foot massage?" She teased, Autumn scrunched her face up in disgust
"Ew"
"Oh come on. We have to get cOmForTaBle with each other" The brunette giggled
"I take it back, fuck the contract. The movie is over, I'm gone" Autumn chuckled
"You'd really give up an entire movie just because you won't touch my feet" Kate laughed
"Daz nasty, just nasty" Autumn playfully glared
"You're ridiculous" Kate giggled
Autumn chuckled as she leaned closer over the table, her pink stained cheeks from smiling almost matched Kate's red face. It's been a while since the raven hair girl had a good laugh or held a smile for over five seconds.
With her eyes trailing over Kate's cheek, the brunette burned in her seat, her red face was way too heated and Autumn's stare wasn't making it easier
"Kate" Autumn mumbled
"Yes?" she asked
"I.. Um.. I'm sorr-"
"KATE WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING" A voice echoed through the diner
The brown hair girl snapped her neck around to see the owner of the diner standing at the bar with her arms crossed and a heated face
"Shit" Kate hissed as she stumbled to her feet, Autumn furrowed her brows at the girl that was quickly tying her apron behind her back
"I don't pay you to sit and talk with your friends. Get to work!" The manager yelled
The customers in the diner all seemed to turn their attention to the woman, their brows furrowed as they looked between Kate and the woman
"I'm so sorry" Kate mumbled
"I don't care. Keep your apologies to yourself. Jeez you teenagers are so reckless" the woman scoffed
The customers all gave confused glanced between each other, clearly disagreeing with the woman. Sure she had a point but that was out of pocket
"I'm.. I'm sorry" Kate mumbled again as she grabbed her notepad
"Dumbass" The woman muttered
"I'll see you at home" She whispered to the raven hair girl
But Autumn eyes weren't on the actress, instead they were piercing into the eyes of the manager who held a scowl on her face looking at Kate
"Don't talk to her like that" Autumn hissed
"Excuse me?" the woman scoffed
"I said don't talk to her like that, she said she's sorry. Besides, she was helping me with something. Is that how you talk to your employees in front of your customers?" Autumn asked
"How I talk to people is none of your business, she works for me" the woman glared
"It is my business because I know her and frankly I don't like your attitude" Autumn spat as she rose to her feet, walking towards the woman
Autumn stood just inches away from the shorter woman, towering over her like a skyscraper but the woman didn't seem to hesitate
"I get that she was sitting but as I said, she was helping me -a customer- with something. It was just for a minute, you don't need to call her reckless" Autumn said sternly
"Another teenager who thinks they're better than everyone. Great" The woman scoffed
"I may be younger but I have a brain" Autumn said in a calm voice, the woman stared at her in disgust
"Who the hell do you think you are" the woman spat
Autumn shrugged as she brought her hand up to her hoodie, sliding it behind and allowing her dark hair to fall over her shoulders. Gasps were heard throughout the entire diner
The woman's eyes went wide, some with fear and the rest with panic
"I- I uh.." the woman stuttered
Autumn rolled her eyes as she snapped her head around to see Kate, she gave the girl a small smile as she watched her face fall
"I'll see you at home" Autumn whispered before heading towards the front door, throwing her hoodie back over her head
The sound of deer stomping against the floor and crazy fans running after the girl echoed through the diner
"Holy" the woman said
"Shit" Ethan finished
"Man, now I want a famous girlfriend to come to my rescue" Jamie pouted
"Shut up"
