“What the fuck?!” She laughed loudly as she leaned herself and phone screen into the general space bubble of the person next to her at the bar. Normally, she keeps to herself, but after a drink or two she honestly doesn’t give a fuck. Like, we’re talking negative fucks to give today. She’d been watching Vines for the past half hour on her trip through the city, and there’s something about watching a guy balance a static ball thing on top of his head just as casually as a hat makes a person giggle at least a bit, especially when you have a shitty sense of humor. 

“Look at that!”

Today, as per any regular week day, Vogal started her day with a run through Central Park. She enjoyed seeing the sights where dozens of movies had been shot depicting heroics, love stories, and tragedies. To think that someone who changed the face of the world could have stood in the same place she was running across filled her with some kind of hope, pushing her to make every step stronger than the last. 

Normally, she was somewhat alone on her morning runs, not counting the elderly yoga classes next to nearly every bench. The others were occupied with the homeless and what she assumes are runaways. 

This morning however, she had someone challenging her path through the sidewalks. There’s nothing better than some nice, friendly competition in the morning, right? Thinking this, she made sure to pace the other for a few steps, then shoot past her and send a wink back over her shoulder. Perhaps the other runner would return the gesture, but who knew?

Chiara was stressed. She made this blatantly clear; a tremble traveled through her fingers to the papers she held, her mouth contorted every time she bit her cheek and more annoyingly, she was tongue-twisted. Fuck. My. Life. Christ, how easy would it be if that was the only line she had? Instead, she hadn’t only 30 lines but 30 pages. “Fuck me up the asshole tenderly.” was what she thought she had whispered. The person next to her, certainly begged to differ.

Tonight was the night she planned to finally quit her job. This time, she chose to take the bus, considering her car was an absolute mess without air conditioning, a bad transmission, and an old spark plug causing some rust in the underbelly. Of course, that didn’t matter anymore. Soon she would pursue a brand new career where she could hopefully get a whole new car altogether.

But even being wrapped up in thought, she couldn’t help but hear the person sitting next to her shuffling through papers and coming up with rather colorful imagery under her breath. She squinted over at the other, she remarked, rather beautiful girl and chuckled. 

“What the fuck?” She said, laughing a little.

“OH MY SHIT AUNT SUSAN WHAT THE-”

She nearly jumped out of her skin in surprise of her new friend intruding on her half-decent shower. Seeing Sakura, she relaxed and lowered her fists.

“God, you could have knocked if you wanted in so badly. Did you need something?”

[gamingfishoutofwater-deactivate]

Sakura blushed and shook her head, “I was going to ask where your remote was for the tv and I guess I got too excited and forgot to knock…” She turned away from the other, shielding her eyes. 

It was the day she was hanging out with the woman at her place and Sakura was too excited to be hanging out with a new friend. So excited that she forgot her manners a bit and thus ending up in this predicament. 

“I will just wait for you in your living room…um have a nice shower.” She turned and walked out of the bathroom, leaving the other alone again. 

[nxveralone-blog]

Vogal huffed as the door shut. She then rinsed out her hair and shut off the water. She had been looking forward to having someone over who wasn’t either falling over drunk or as lost as Christopher Columbus in 1492. 

In a wrapped towel, she popped her head out the door and pointed towards the top of the TV.

“The remote is on top of there. Also, could you hand me the clothes on my bed? They’re right by the bottom or whatever it’s called.”

“Excuse me?!”

Lien quickly pulled the shower curtain back over to cover most of her body- with only her head peeking through. I mean yeah she was using the shower at the gym, but surely that didn’t mean people could just pop in whenever they wanted. Perhaps it was… an American cultural difference. Yeah that had to be it.She did her best to put on a polite smile– “Is there something I may help you with?”

[ambitiousbotanist-blog]

“Oh no! It’s not that at all- I was just surprised…”

“Yeah, lemme grab them for you.”

Lien turned around, letting go of the curtain to look for the bathroom supplies the other girl had asked for. She grabbed the bunch and stuck the soaps and rag out from behind the curtain, still trying to at least hide most of her body. Mmmm the cultural differences would take a lot more getting used to than she’d thought. Everyday there was a new surprise for her.

[nxveralone-blog]

“Oh,” She paused, somewhat wishing she hadn’t said that much before. “Thanks.”

She hoped she could break up the awkward tension filling the room like a gas pouring out of every wall. Normally she would just walk away, but what’s the fun in that?

“Hey, uh... What’s your name? If it’s not weird or anything, I mean. I’m just curious I guess.”

“Uh, just here for my shampoo and stuff, sorry. Are you alright? Ugh, it’s not the scar right? Don’t get freaked dude. It’s just my face.”

If she could, she would keel over and morph into some kind of bird every time someone hid their faces or covered their kid’s eyes when they saw that scar. It wasn’t even that bad really, just an unlucky fight with the corner of a bedpost during basic training. At least it wasn’t something stupid, like falling on the ground as a kid, even though that’s pretty much what happened.

At any rate, she stepped back and held up her hands.

“My bad, I’ll wait. Or, if you could pass the those three green bottles and the blue-ish rag, that would be great.”

5. “Are you trying to seduce me?”

[gamingfishoutofwater-deactivate]

Sakura shook her head no, she had not the slightest idea of what she was talking about. “I will just take your word for it since I really have no idea.” She really wasn’t trying to be rude, she was just still confused. “I’m sorry if I sound rude to you….I’m just a bit confused. But I guess if you were trying to seduce me…I wouldn’t mind.” She blushed a bit and looked away from the other. 

[nxveralone-blog]

Vogal’s lips curled into a cocky grin. Mission accomplished. Begin phase two.

“So you say you wouldn’t mind if I were tryin’? Well, would you say the same thing at my place around eight? Or would you rather get dinner first?”

5. “Are you trying to seduce me?”

[gamingfishoutofwater-deactivate]

“….what?” Sakura was genuinely confused by this person. What did any of that mean? She had no idea. “So you aren’t?” She just wanted to clarify for her own peace of mind.

[nxveralone-blog]

Mentally, all she wanted to say was that Sakura was cute and just wanted to try and flirt. This however, will most likely not come to light due to her inability to be totally straightforward. 

“It’s like, I might be, but I also might not be. Y’know?”

“I might be, I might not be. Who knows? I really don’t.”

“Just fucking do it. Weed is awesome.”

[nxveralone-blog]

“Sure, that’s great and all, but have you considered the fact that I don’t have time or money for that shit? I’m living off ramen for god’s sake.”
