Chapter Twelve : The Nightlingriff

TAVERN BODGE LOCAL BAR AND LOUNGE CLUBHOUSE

The next day, Pedro and I slowly walks inside the dimmed lit main together. He and I looks at Ziandra, who looks at us from the U shaped sofa.


Ziandra gets up to her feet and puts her hand on her hip as she tries not to let the fact that Pedro and I hooked up together.

"Pedro? Angie S?" Ziandra said.

"Ziandra?" I said to her.

"Pedro? Where are you?" Ziandra asked her ex-boyfriend. "And by the way, it's a rhetorical question?"

Pedro smugly grins at her. "I had fun." Glancing at me and walks away.

Ziandra scoffs to herself and looks at me. I smugly grins at her and slowly walks away from her.

I sit down on the U shaped sofa beside Pedro. And I puts my feet on his lap. He puts his arm around my shoulder.

"Angie?" Aiden said.

I look up at Aiden. "Hey, Aiden."

Aiden looks at Pedro and Me, and realizes that we revenged hooked up with each other.

Aiden slowly walks over to the sofa and sits down across from Pedro and Me.

"If you think revenge hookup with my ex-boyfriend will hurt me, then, it doesn't, Angie S." Ziandra said to me.

"I mean, I did have the intention of hooking up with Pedro the first time, but I wasn't in a mood, and so, I kissed him." I said to her, nonchalantly.

"But Angie was in a mood last night when I came by her house. And gosh, did sparks fly in between us." Pedro said to Aiden, nonchalantly.

"Okay, I get it, you two hooked up with each other and now, you're both rubbing it in to spite Me and Ziandra because we hurt you." Aiden said to me.

"Doesn't feel good, doesn't it, Aiden?" I said to him.

My phone buzzes in my jeans pocket. I pulls out my phone and looks at it.

Jayce Griffin

I answer my phone. "Jayce?"

"Hi, Sweet Angie." Amy Tooney greeted on the phone.

"Amy?" I said, becoming worried. "Why do you have Jayce's phone?"

"I was visiting him and his younger twin sister, and their speakeasy nightclub is very well done." Amy Tooney said on the phone. "And if you don't want your best friends speakeasy nightclub to be ruined, I suggest you come to the Kiermont's Workshop." And hangs up her phone.

I gets up and walks away.

"Andy?" Sharron said.

"I'll be back." I said, proceeding to walks away.

*~*~*

KIERMONT'S WORKSHOP

I slowly walks up the stairs and into the second floor of the main room.

Amy Tooney is sitting behind her desk, sitting in her chair. "Hi, Angie."

"Molasses? Your making molasses? From scratch?" I asked her, folding my arms.

"It's good for a business." Amy Tooney said to me.

"Leave my best friends speakeasy nightclub alone." I told her.

"Angie?" Jed said.

I looks at Jed, bewilderedly. "Jed? What the hell are you doing here?"

"He works here." Quinton tells me.

I look at Jed, shocked. "Jed?"

"Mr. Jedidiah Cowen has been working here for a while now." Quinton said.

Jed and I exchange glumly looks at each other. And I walks away. And Jed walks after me.

"Angie?" Jed said, walking after me down the stairs and into the main room. And out of the workshop building. "Please, don't tell Robyn."

I turns around and looks at Jed. "I'm not gonna tell her, you are. Have you tried to quit?"

"It's temporary." Jed said to me.

"What are you gonna do?" I asked Jed, worriedly.

"I don't know, but I'll think of something." Jed said.

"How did you get involved with Kiermont's Workshop?" I asked him.

"Amy Tooney came to me and offered me a temporary job at the Kiermont's Workshop. She said she'll pay me $900 cash. And me, an idiot, I said " 'Yes' ". Jed said to me.

"Amy was manipulating you, Jed." I said to him.

"I know, but knowing me . . ." Jed trailed off.

"Yeah, I know you, Jed. And you and I have been known each other for a long while." I said. "Just be careful, okay?"

"Yeah." Jed said.

Jed and I fist bumps each other and I walks away from him.

THE NIGHTLINGRIFF SPEAKEASY NIGHTCLUB

That late afternoon, Me and the Saunders Gang, and our parents and other speakeasy nightclub-goers, are enjoying ourselves with music entertainment and our drinks.


Jayce and Joyce, and I are gently leaning backwards on the bar counter.

"Everyone's enjoying themselves. You guys actually did it." I said to The Griffin Twins.

"Yeah, we did, didn't we, Jayce?" Joyce said to her older twin brother.

"Yeah, we did." Jayce said.

Jayce and Joyce fist bumps each other, exchanging small smiles at each other.

Aiden and I exchange looks at each other from across the room. He tries to small smile at me. I nodded at him and looks away from him.

"I'll be right back." Joyce said, excusing herself.

Joyce Griffin walks up onto the stage and up to the microphone. "Hi, everyone. Are you enjoying yourselves?"

Everyone applauds, happily.

"Now, for a special Candy, ladies and gentlemen, younger and older, Miss. Robyn Stanton." Joyce said.

Everyone applauds. And Robyn walks up onto the stage, wearing a blue dress, and her cat ear headband.

🎵 Wake up to your dreams
And watch them come true
I'll make you whisper my name
And never leave the room
Night and day
I'll be your muse
No other girl can make you feel the way I do. 🎵 Robyn starts to sing.

🎵 I can make the stars dance
Light up the moon

If you want me to
The sky is everywhere
So meet me under there
I can make the stars dance
Dance, dance for you, you, you.🎵

🎵 Everything I touch, turns to love
Everything I do, will open up Heaven
Instead of us falling, we're flying in love
Nothing's forever, because we are just
Stardust 🎵

🎵 I can make the stars dance
Light up the moon
I can make the stars dance
If you want me to
The sky is everywhere
So meet me under there
I can make the stars dance
Dance, dance for you, you, you🎵

🎵 I can make the stars dance
I can make the stars
I can make
I can make

So meet me under there
I can make the stars dance
Dance, dance for you, you, you
Dance, dance, dance... 🎵 Robyn finished.

Everyone applauds. And Robyn small smiles to herself. She slowly walks down the stage and Jed walks up to her and kisses her. She kisses him back.

3RD POV

At the Stanton Home, Jed and Robyn are sitting on the three seat sofa, leaning backwards on the sofa, taking a few sips of their bottles of Ale.

"You did amazing at The Nightlingriff." Jed said to his girlfriend, Robyn.

"Thanks, Jed." Robyn said.

"Robyn? There's something I have to tell you." Jed said.

"Okay. What is it?" Robyn asked.

"I've been doing temporary work at the Kiermont Workshop." Jed tells her.

"You've been working at Quinton Kiermont's workshop. Why?" Robyn asked him.

"Well, because, I was bored at home, with nothing to do, and I encountered Amy and she offered me a job at the Kiermont Workshop." Jed said. "But maybe, I can spy within the Kiermont Workshop."

"Are you sure you wanna do that, Jed? You're gonna get trouble with Quinton and Amy." Robyn said.

"Playfully troublemaker is my middle name." Jed said with a playfully smile.

Robyn gives him a really look. And Jed plants a kiss on her cheek. Jed and Robyn exchange small smiles at each other.

JEN'S DINER

Later on that night, Jayce, Joyce and I are sitting in a booth table across from each other.

"The guys loved The Nightlingriff." I said to Jayce and Joyce.

"Yeah. It was successful." Jayce said and looks at Joyce and Me. "The three of us speakeasy nightclub partners."

Jayce, Joyce and I exchange small smiles at each other.

*~*~*

SAUNDERS HOME

That same night, I slowly walks inside and closes the door behind me. I slowly walks inside and sits down on the three seat sofa.

My phone buzzes in my dress pocket. I pulls out my phone and looks at it.

Aiden

I answer my phone. "Aiden?"

"Hey, Angie. I know why you hooked up with Pedro as revenge. And I know that I hurt you. But I forgive you. I just hope that you can forgive me. I'm really sorry." Aiden said to me on my phone. "I still love you, Angie Saunders. And I hope that you and I can get pass this."

"Me too, Aiden. Me too." I said, and hangs up my phone.

Angie (VO) Although, I'm still a little bit upset with Aiden. But I still love them though.
