“Alright, I’ll definitely tell you. It does seem like a while doesn’t it? Is everything alright? With you, with the business? I don’t think we’ve truly talked in a while.”
“Things are wonderful darling. The club is doing fine and that auction raised far more money than I had anticipated. The new lighting system should be installed fairly soon. What about you? How have you been doing?”
“I’d be doing a little better if all these jerks stopped thinking that I’m just a play thing. How about yourself?”
“Dare to dream darling, dare to dream. But let me know if any of them get too handsy, I will have Henry kick them out. I’m wonderful now that you are here. It feels like forever since I last saw you.”
“Oh, it is. I just couldn’t stay away, I guess.”
“…or I forgot my paycheck.”
“That sounds more like you. Go ahead and grab it. It’s in the top drawer of my desk, I put it there when I found it on the bar this morning.”
“What is this?”
“A drink. Would you like one?”
“The same thing so many of us have done.” Lile sighed, rubbing his fingers over his tired brow with a grim expression. “Trusted the wrong secret to the wrong person.”
“That’s a shame. He’s such a good man and a loyal customer. Is there anything I could do to help him?”
“Really? How is their variety? I have over a dozen different arrangements to make.”
“It’s fantastic. They have every flower you could possibly imagine. They have flowers that I had never even heard of or seen before entering the store. They are so beautiful it’s almost like magic was used to make them.”
Lile shook his head, gesturing softly at a man sitting alone at the corner of the bar, sipping at a tumbler of whiskey.
“Nah, my dear. I’m watching my mark. Poor idiot’s clock has been ticking down since the first drop touched his lips. He just doesn’t know it yet.”
Faye glanced over to where the man pointed and sighed when she realized she knew the man, a regular at the club.
“I’m sorry to hear that. Can I ask what the man has done?”
“Do you know a good florist you could recommend for me? I hate all the ones I’ve seen.”
“The florist down the street from Fire and Ice is excellent. I use them whenever I need flowers.”
“Me? Outside in the storm?”
clyde-jenner:
“She used to send me outside all the time. She still thinks I’m not fit to be seen indoors.”
Clyde picked up a broom and dustpan and began sweeping away the broken glass.
“Are there other windows needing fixing or just the ones on this side?”
“That’s a strange thing to think. I understand spending time outdoors, it is a part of growing up after all. But why would she not want you indoors”
“There is also one upstairs in my apartment. But that one doesn’t need to be fixed right away. The club windows are my priority. I’ve taped some plastic up so the wind and rain aren’t too much of an issue for now.”
it’s only love || faye & rob flashback
10 years ago
Rob had been about to say perfect, in reply to her having forgotten lunch, because he could share his with her, but a voice in the back of his mind stopped him from sounding like an idiot. He had been fighting back the undoubtedly realization that he was probably in love with Faye. He had tried to rationalize things, of course he thought about her all day, it was only natural, they had been friends forever. He had had a harder time convincing himself that the sudden urge of kissing her was just a byproduct of spending so much time with her. When he had finally accepted those feelings he had been too scared to say something, he would rather be near her, as a friend, than risk not ever speaking to her again.
“Well we can share mine,” he said casually, “and hey! I’m not a little kid anymore, I’m past the fruits and sweets, I need real food” he said, “I’m kidding you know it’s the only way my mum will let me eat sweets” he wasn’t ashamed to say these things around Faye, she knew him better than anyone, he would never keep anything from her, not matter how embarrassing. “Mrs. Jones is a saint for everything she does,” he said knowing Faye will understand what he meant, “she’s very good at remembering details” he left out the part about him talking about Faye every chance he got. “Truth or dare? I- umm well I guess… yeah okay” what was the worst that could happen?
Faye smiled at Rob’s suggestion of sharing his lunch, it was so kind of him. He was always so kind to her, its part of the reason that she found herself falling in love with him more and more every day. “Well, aren’t you my knight in shining armor.” Faye said with a laugh, “Your mom has a point, you eat far too many sweets. She has a right to be worried. But we both know that Mrs. Jones probably sneaks them to you whenever your mother’s back is turned.” Mrs. Jones was by far one of the sweetest people that Faye had ever met, but sometimes she wasn’t sure if she liked her or not. Whenever she went over to Rob’s she felt like Mrs. Jones was silently judging her, like she knew something that Faye didn’t and it drove her crazy. Watching as Rob pulled out his lunch, that was clearly made with much love from Mrs. Jones, she smiled at him as he handed Faye half of his ham sandwich.
She grabbed it and took a bite, chewing slowly as she watched Rob pull a container of fresh fruits, peaches included, celery sticks, dumplings,a thermos filled with some sort of liquid and a brownie that was clearly intended to share based off of the size. Swallowing the bite she had taken, she looked at Rob with a mischievous grin. “Perfect. Alright Rob, you’ll go first. Truth or dare?”
Oh, that sounds simply wonderful. I do hope everything with the construction goes well. If you would like, I can ask around and see if I can get you some pretty new wallpaper or tables from some of the merchants. You can probably change things up a little or get some colorful items to put around the ceiling. Ooh, you could also get some cool chandeliers.
That sounds amazing! I would love to see some samples. Do you think your merchants could stop by? Or is there somewhere I can go and see their goods?
❝ It was my honor to be able to help you && your club, ma’am. I believe Mr. Finn Bradshaw did in the end, though I did notice a bidding war towards the middle for it. ❞
“Thank you darling, that means the world to me. Stop by the club sometime and come say hi. I’ll get you a drink, on the house. A bidding war? How exciting! I hope you and Mr. Bradshaw have a lovely evening.”
“Well a lot of people love you Faye. And they love the club. But I think it was a clever idea, the town needed a little fun, people just wanted something exciting, so they all came out to help…”
“I won one by the way… it turned out to be from your friend John.”
“I think they love my alcohol and dancers more than they love me but as long as they come out to support I really don’t mind. Thank you darling, I can’t take all the credit for it though, Tanya was a big help. It was mostly her idea.”
“Oh congratulations! I’m sure John has something quite exciting planned. Whatever it is I’m sure it will be memorable. Has he told you anything about it yet?”
“Well, let me know if you need help with anything, yeah?”
“Of course my love. So who ended up winning your basket?”
❝ Oh how wonderful! It’s truly amazing to see just how much everyone pooled together! ❞
“It really is. Especially considering how hard things have been for everyone recently. Thank you so much for donating a basket darling. Who ended up winning it?”
Ohh Faye I knew this was going to be a success! I’m so happy! So is it enough then?
“And then some darling. I can’t believe this many people came out to support us. It’s amazing.”
“Hey, maybe if there’s extra after replacing the lights, we can throw a party, or something.”
“I know there will be some extra, we raised far more than I anticipated. But I don;t know if a party is the best use for those funds. There are plenty of other things that could be upgraded, or we could save it for a rainy day when business isn’t as good. I don’t know. I’ll have to think about it.”
