Sadie POV

___________

        After about only thirty minutes of working, no one else came in and it was just Steven, plus my excitement took over me. So I wrote a note, saying that I closed early for 'personal reasons' and left it on the counter.

        "Come on Steven. I'm closing up early." I lead Steven outside as I turn off the lights and take out the keys.

        "But why are you closing early!?" Steven whines as I lock up the Big Donut, trying not to smile.

        "Cause, relationship reasons." Steven starts to grin,

        "Larsaide reasons?" I hide my blush,

        "Maybe." He starts to laugh, and I smile. Steven smiles and hugs his big pink Lion that waited outside for him. As I look up at the gentle beast, I could have sworn, I saw it smile. Blinking in surprise, Steven climbs up on him,

        "You need a ride." I think for a bit, as I check the time, and it's almost four o'clock.

        "Why not." Steven smiles and I slowly place my hand on Lion and he doesn't move. When I get up on him, he's oddly soft and comfortable.

        "Where too Sadie?" As I move a strand of my hair behind my ear, I say,

        "To my house." And Steven playfully says to Lion,

        "Away!" And Lion takes off, and he runs with great speed, faster then when I'm on Lars back. As we both laugh in happiness, Lion suddenly stops, and I realize, we're at my house. I get off and pet Lions head, and he quietly roars.

        "See ya Sadie!" Steven says and I wave goodbye. They both take off as I hop over the three steps and open the door.

        "Hi honey!" Yells my mom from the living room as she rests.

        "Hi mom, I'll be out for a bit, OK?" All I get back is a snore. Ever since; what happened to my dad, she's been working more, and isn't home as much. Skipping a step as I go upstairs, I go to my room and close the door, I start to change. Picking out a light red short sleeved shirt and another pair of jeans, I look outside, and it's almost sun set. I go to my mirror, and look at my face.

        Maybe I should put some makeup on.

        Then I'm remember I'm hanging with Lars.

        No, I'm good.

        Opening the door, I go to the bathroom, and slip off the gauze, and see my hand is a bit worse.

        Dang it.

        I make a sling with some gauze, not wanting to miss spending time with Lars.

        I got to get going.

        Quickly, I open the door and I run down the stairs, and softly close the door as I step outside, not wanting to wake up my mom. Luckily, it's not cold anymore, so I don't let the feeling of still missing my coat bug me. Making sure my arm is comfortable, I adjust it in the sling a bit, and wince softly,

        I must have hit Jenny harder than I thought

        As I keep walking to the docks, I couldn't help but think about Lars.

        He might want to tell me all about Jenny

        If he's going out with her
