“It’s not like you set it up. You don’t need to apologize.”
“Sorry.” It came out pretty arrogant even if that’s not what he wanted but he never had a problem with that. It is known he can just say something without thinking about how it would sound, his short temper did get him in a lot of trouble sometimes and what she said did tick him off a bit. He was just trying to be a decent person and that’s what he gets.
“Quit being all mopey you loser.” Cracking a smile, he shook his head forgetting about being angry in the first place. "What’s wrong with being mopey?
He is never really mopey and he never really shows what exactly he is feeling, especially when it comes to sadness and not so happy things. But that doesn’t mean he doesn’t feel anything or is always playing the victim, in fact, he owns up to things he’s done. Or maybe that’s just how he’s used to be, these days it’s hard to find things that could really make him happy. “But I’ll wait a few minutes until Preston’s gone.” Looking up at her he lightly nodded staying quiet with a soft smile on his lips but quickly and quietly added, “Ok.” Shifting his gaze to that spot he took a deep breath, straightening up as he rested his hands on his knees. “Just a few minutes.” He added with a genuine smile but the moment he looked back at her he somehow changed his mind. What am I doing? He could see she didn’t really want that, why would she? She has absolutely no reason to stay with him, to listen to his apologies. Fixing things doesn’t always work and she should know that. “No, it’s ok. I’m pretty sure he is gone so I’ll take you back and you can go on with your day.” He blurred out taking the oars as he avoided making eye contact. “I won’t bother you. I don’t even know why I suggested that, just forget about it.”
""
He apologized again despite her comments and she lifted a brow, wondering if he was just being snarky or actually genuine.
“What’s wrong with being mopey?”
Because a smile suited him better. She gave a small smile and shrugged. “I forgot you enjoy deep emotional thought sessions every once in a while.”
“Just a few minutes.”
Adeline furrowed her brows at his reaction but simply put an elbow on the edge of the boat and leaned against it. Something was defintely bothering him, and although she liked to imagine it was mounting guilt for their past relationship, she knew she didn’t have as much of an impact on him as he did to her. She was aware that something happened between him and his fiancee. In fact, most of Lime Grove was always aware of information like that. The fact that Leo had proposed and was willing to settle down in the first place meant it was serious.
“No, it’s ok. I’m pretty sure he is gone so I’ll take you back and you can go on with your day.”
Her eyes flicked over to him, lifting her head up from her hand as she watched him grab the oars. How was she supposed to respond to that?
“I won’t bother you. I don’t even know why I suggested that, just forget about it.”
She groaned underneath her breath. She was breaking every rule she’d written when it came to Leo.
She reached over, placing her hands over his to fight for the oars, yanking it the other way while giving him a challenging frown.
“I want to.”
Realizing how misleading that sounded, she quickly formed words to recover. “You obviously don’t know Pres like I do. He’s waiting. Just…help me lay low for a bit,” she stated, almost like an excuse. Her want to fix this was purely selfish. She just wanted to forget about it, and the way they left things kept eating at her. She didn’t know the answer to certain questions or why he did certain things. And certainly after this, she could move on and truly just forget about it all.

“Oh dear little Hestia. We both know if you truly thought I was a terrible nuisance, you would be hanging out with me at this moment right now.”
She raised an eyebrow at him, “I came for the food.” She replied nonchalantly flexing and un-flexing her hands before yawning slightly. Her rebuttal was weak, however, because he was completely and utterly correct. Despite all the sh-t she said about how annoying and as much of a nuisance he was she still cared about him too much for her own good and enjoyed his company. Hestia rolled her eyes slightly pushing him away, although the tips of her ears were as red as her hair. “That’s not how a court case works.” She replied, the only thing she could come up with

@jaytastic ~ sorry, lots of stuff going on…
After I had woken up from my slumber, I got dressed and ready for the day, popping a few Advil’s before I left. Though, the girl who I had drunkenly taken home decided she would rather make “small talk”, whatever that was. I didn’t even remember her name. After a few minutes of trying to dodge her talk about the weather or what the f*ck ever, I simply told her that I had work to do - and she believed me. So, we both finally went our own ways and I decided to grab something to eat. Preferably something that could make do with my horrid hangover.
“Hey Henry. Needed a bite to eat also?”
I turned from where I was standing and looked to the person who had spoken. “Em, yeah. My head is killing me. Orion, right?” I said, smiling very lightly.
@Littlefeets sorry for the late reply!!
“Watch me” He mouthed. I gasped and shook my head playfully. “Why you would have to get past my incredible karate moves before you attempt that.” I said, smiling cheekily as I sent him a wink.
“haven’t planned anything… up to you"
“Must I always come up with what we are doing?” I teased, then I grabbed a seat at his table as I thought for a moment. “Mm, the fair… Or that lake? Or maybe just a movie? I don’t know.” I said with a shrug. “Up to you…” I said with a taunting smile, copying his words from before.
Her own dog was really cute. I suppose I thought all dogs were cute though. My love for them really was a bit obsessive but who cares. “I was there, just more low key.” I said to her. I didn’t know if she was apart of whatever game was being played last night, though in all reality I didn’t care who was. Guess if they were having fun that’s all that matters. “I had a good time, just didn’t feel like doing anything I’d regret in the morning.” I said with a little laugh. That was something I did many times before leaving. I didn’t care as much about what people thought about me so I would just have a blast without considering feelings or consequences.
@CerealKiller
“Oh sh*t the Karate card” I sighed jokingly “I’m powerless against it” I joked and shook my head
Must I always come up with what we are doing?
“Absolutely, what’s the point in you otherwise?” I smirked
Mm, the fair… Or that lake? Or maybe just a movie? I don’t know. Up to you…
“Why not all of them?” I asked “why pick when you can choose them all” I smirked
@aesthetic
I had a good time, just didn’t feel like doing anything I’d regret in the morning
I frowned a little considering I had to kiss half the neighborhood
“Yeah I can get that, the game did get a bit extra at some point but I was already in it and I hate quiting in the middle” I shrugged and shook my head
“So what you up to?” I asked
@Madilfill
“Oh sh!t the Karate card… I’m powerless against it”
I nodded, taking a sip of my coffee. “Yes, the karate card. You should be worried.” I said, playfully pointing my finger at him as I attempted to hide my smile.
“Absolutely, what’s the point in you otherwise?”
I pouted in a goofy way, laughing lightly after. “Careful now. I might have to bring in those karate moves I was talking about.” I teased.
“Why not all of them? why pick when you can choose them all” I raised a brow but shrugged as I let out a laugh. “Sounds good to me… Buuuuutttt, you’re driving.” I said, blowing him a kiss.
Oh no. That just reminded me of last night… I forgot because of the alcohol, but I remember now. Suddenly, I felt a pink shade creep across my cheeks but I covered it by taking another sip of my drink. Oh save me now. How did that one little thing just make a simple move I always made so different? It wasn’t anything - don’t mention it and maybe he won’t either. No no no nope. Not interested. Ignore it, Ads.
“Pulling the Karate card is harsh” I shook my head
She pouted and I chuckled and hugged her ruffling her hair
Careful now. I might have to bring in those karate moves I was talking about
“Sorry can’t hang with you today gotta go learn karate” I said turning to the door “kidding”
Sounds good to me… Buuuuutttt, you’re driving
“You’re just trying to make me quit drinking are you?” I shook my head "okay I’m driving " I smiled lightly and grabbed my car keys from the counter
I noticed she turned pink, I wondered what’s on her mind. And than I thought of yesterday, was it stuck in her mind too or is it just me?
I bit my lip subtly, don’t think about it.
“Ready to go?” I asked changing the subject
@aesthetic 
“Pulling the Karate card is harsh”
I chuckled and gave him a shrug. “Sucks to suck…” I teased. “Sorry can’t hang with you today gotta go learn karate… kidding.” I gasped playfully and shook my head. “How dare you, french boy.”
“You’re just trying to make me quit drinking are you?” I chuckled and stood up, throwing my hoodie over my head. “Whatever makes you happy, doc.” I said, sending him a wink. “okay I’m driving” I smiled and grabbed my phone, along with my bag.
“Ready to go?” Oh thank goodness, he didn’t notice- or at least, he didn’t say anything. My body usually got the best of me… I could control my words and what not… Just not my body. Ironic, right? I mean, I was a dancer, you’d think I’d have more control… “Yeah, sure.” I said, heading towards the door, then exiting the house.
I opened my mouth with a hand on my chest acting offended “oh no you didn’t”
How dare you, french boy
"Violence AND racism " I tsk tsk and shake my head "shame on you Addison "
Whatever makes you happy, doc.
“Drinking is fun. I swear I’ll end up hiring a driver or some sh*t” I laughed
Yeah, sure
I nodded and grabbed my phone and wallet and shoved them in my pockets “let’s go than” I smiled and opened the door and we headed to the car
“To the batmobile!” I exclaimed
@aesthetic I can’t even 
Why am I laughing so hard
Tapping her chin as she thought, she responded with,” Well now you just have to save a cat from a tree.” She shrugged. He came close before asking a favor. She arched her eyebrow up. “And what is this so called favor that you like?” He did say, he didn’t want to sound like a douche so what does that mean it’ll be? Uh oh, that doesn’t sound like good news, but what could be so bad. She nodded jokingly. “You’ve got that right.” She laughed slightly. Then he said the word… a fiancée. He has a fiancée and slept with me. “Oh my…” She stood there with shock. She laughed a little. “I’m sorry. I have a really bad habit of laughing when I shouldn’t be.” She took a deep breath so she wouldn’t laugh anymore. She wasn’t surprised that someone would pick this guy up in no time. Good looks… somewhat good personality considering he cheated on his soon to be wife. “Well… I suppose that you don’t want anyone to know anything about this then?” She questioned and drank some of her coffee. She wasn’t too upset about this. He should’ve told her so she wasn’t in the wrong there. He should know to save it for his wife, but it’s confusing on how he brings her up which gives a sign of respect and at least likes her, hopefully loves. But he knew and still cheated. Now that’s many different signals there.
“You really haven’t heard of it? They said it was for political reasons.” I shrugged and sipped a bit of my coffee. I noticed how nervous and panicked he appeared. “Is everything alright?” I asked. “No one knows. It was announced yesterday. Just… take a deep breath. We’re going to be fine, nothing is going to happen. Just a small lockdown.” I said, resting my hand on his arm.
“Oh, really?” I said, expecting him to decline my offer. My mood brighten and I smiled. “Uh, great we can- we can walk.” I said tripping over my own words. My heart raced and my palms began to sweat. I rummaged through my purse and texted my bodyguard to take the rest of the day off- which I have never done before. I felt safe around Diego and very nervous.
We began our trek out of the garden.
“What’s your favorite thing about the amusement park?”
I smiled at her and began to walk. "Hmm, I’m not sure to be honest, I think everything looks really fun to try, " I said, looking at the amusement park that was inching closer as we continued walking. What if IIIIII grab her hand? No. Well? What do I do. Aaaa. I thought to myself. I moved my hand over by an inch all while walking, and accidentally touched her pinky finger. What are we going to do now?? Oh no. I hope she did not feel that. I rubbed my neck awkwardly. " Whats your favorite thing, if you have one? " I said looking at her then smiling.

Sarah wakes up to a notification on her phone. She didn’t get up because the sun was so bright. She shut her eyes closed, she realized she had to get ready for today even though there is not much due to the lockdown. She went to the shower and she later dressed up. She put on mascara and lip gloss. She doesn’t really wear makeup. She wore something comfortable today. She grabbed a green crop top and blue shorts. She tied her hair into a bun and she put on her slippers and went down to the kitchen. She made a fruit salad in a bowl and she finally checked her notification. It was about some exposing site. There was a smile of excitement in her face as she read the message. She sat down on her living room couch and put on the TV. She switched off the TV and went to do the dishes. She decided to hang out in the library. So she left the couch and after a while, she arrived at the library. She saw a girl staring at a book and reading the blurb “Hey, that one looks pretty good. You should read it” she said smiling in a friendly manner.
“Oh no you didn’t,” I laughed at him. “Oh yes I did.” I said. “Violence AND racism…shame on you Addison” I rolled my eyes at him and gave him a playful shove. “That’s not what I meantttt…” I said, pinching the bridge of my nose.
“Drinking is fun. I swear I’ll end up hiring a driver or some sh!t” I smiled and ran a hand through my hair as I threw my bag over my shoulder. “Says the doctor - You know, doctors are usually the ones telling people to stay away from alcohol.” I teased with a chuckle, smiling as I shrugged as we walked out of the house.
“To the batmobile!” I let out a giggle and felt my phone go off in my hand. Once we got into his car, I looked down at it, getting a notification for some site. “Miles… Are you getting this?” I asked, furrowing my brows. “It’s a site… and it’s for exposing Lime Grove.” I said, raising a brow as I looked back up to him.
“Maybe, but you said it” I smirked teasing her
Says the doctor - You know, doctors are usually the ones telling people to stay away from alcohol.
“If I listened to everything doctors usually say, my life would have been way more boring” I pointed
Miles… Are you getting this?
“Getting what?” I asked slightly confused
It’s a site… and it’s for exposing Lime Grove.
“What-” I mumbled “exposing what? Who? What.” I was confused.
I took out my phone, I also got the notification about that “who…” I mumbled
@aesthetic
I was paying deep attention to the book I was reading. “This sounds a little bit like a stephen King novel.” I thought. That’s when I heard a voice behind me. “Hey, that one looks pretty good. You should read it” I jumped up in surprise as I turned around. I realized that It was the same girl that I invited into my house. “Well, you must have a good taste in books.” I said while slightly bragging. I put down my book. “So, what’s been going on in Chaotic Lime Grove lately?” I asked, completely unaware of the notification everyone got.
