Cloudy With The Chance Of Meatballs {Flint x OC}

Chapter 5

~TWILIGHT P.O.V

I was the next day, it was Saturday, the day of the reopening of Chew and Swallow, Sam and I were in the van, Sam was pulling her glasses on and off trying to figure out if she should wear them or not, I was just drawing the inside of the Jell-O castle.

I looked up at Sam as she sighed annoyed, "Keep 'em on, Sam. It makes you who you are," I told her with a smile, She smiled at me as she was still looking at the black of the window screen, she looked up for a second before her eyes widened.

I looked confused before she turned around in her chair and I followed her gaze, there was a Doppler Weather Radar 2000 Turbo and a lab coat sitting on the desk behind us, "Whoa," Sam muttered as she grabbed the radar and I grabbed the lab coat, there was a note attached to it.

Dear Twi.

I found this on the way back to my lab,

I remembered how much you wanted one, so I got it for you.

Hope you like it.

Love Your Friend,

Flint Lockwood.

I felt my eyes water as I smiled sweetly at the note, I put the lab coat on and put the note in a pocket, I heard beeping and saw Sam on the radar, "Uh..." Sam muttered, "What is it?" I asked her as I looked at the screen, our eyes then widened and we looked at each other in fear.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sam and I pushed our way through the crowd, trying to get to Flint who was on stage, waiting for his moment to get called on, "...And when the fun is done, gaze upon the sunset cresting over Mount Leftovers. From which we're protected by a presumably indestructible dam. We've got people here today from all around the world, from as far as China to West Virginia. Also, I think there's some Canadians here," The Mayor said as Sam and I got the stage, I also saw Flint peaking out of the curtain.

We got there and I saw Flint trying to pat down his hair, I liked it the way it was before but he still looked cute, "Flint," I said, trying to catch his attention as the two of us walked over to him, he gasped as he looked over at us.

He smiled with his cheeks going pink as he saw me in the lab coat he gave me, I mouthed, 'Thank you,' and he nodded, "You need to look at this," Sam said as she showed Flint the radar, "Why aren't you on TV? You're supposed to be broadcasting this?" Flint asked nervously as he walked over to us.

"There's a problem. I-" Sam started saying but I elbowed her, "We think the food's getting bigger-" Sam corrected opening the radar but Flint closed it with a smile, which confused me.

"I know, it's great. Bigger portion sizes. Everyone loves it," Flint said gesturing to the people in the nacho hot springs, "Flint. I'm not sure we're doing the right thing here," Sam started saying, opening the radar again but Flint closed it while saying, "Sam, Twi-"

I cut him off, grabbing his hand, "Flint. What if we've bitten off more than we can chew?" I questioned him with a worried voice, he pulled his hand away and groaned while rolling his eyes, I flinch back as Sam put a hand on my shoulder.

"For the first time in my life, everybody loves something that I've done. Why can't you just be happy for me and go say the weather or something? Jeez," he said while turning around, I gasped as a tear rolled down my as I covered my mouth, out of the corner of my eye, I saw Sam glare at Flint.

I thought I saw Flint flinch for a second before shaking it off, "And without further ado, our town's hero and my metaphorical son, Flint Lockwood!" The Mayor said and Flint jumped out from behind the curtain and out to the crowd, "Yeah, Flint," someone shouted.
