Blood Honey

.｡*ﾟ+.*.｡ Chapter 1 ﾟ+..｡*ﾟ+

.｡*ﾟ+.*.｡ My Blood?!ﾟ+..｡*ﾟ+

-Why did you pour YOUR blood?!- my mouth got dry when I heard Alice shout those words.

-What do you mean MY blood?!- I looked at her trying to understand what had her so agitated for.

Then I quickly noticed the light that started coming from under my feet.

-Oh fuck...-

✧･ﾟ:*✧･ﾟ:*A few hours before *:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧

-Yuriiii~the order for table 4 is ready.-

-Coming!- Finishing taking the new order, I put the small notebook on the apron's pocket as I walked over to the kitchen.

The sound of people talking and the smell of fresh cookies filled the small café. The warmth of the place was really appreciated as the days were growing colder and colder.

-Here you go.- I handed the new order to Alice and picked the sweets and drinks for table 4. -That's the last order for today. Once we're done cleaning up let's go drink at my house.-

Alice frowned and shook her head.

-I can't today. I have... something to do at home.- She smiled and let out a burst of nervous laughter.

-It's already the fourth time you said that this week. Don't you love me anymore?- I said, pouting and fake crying.

Alice had been my best friend since we meet each other when we were 14. Some people would think that we're girlfriends, but we're actually just really close.

 Lately she had been refusing to meet me outside work, without really explaining why, so it started to worry me a little bit.

She let out a little laugh and patted my head.

-Of course I do idiot. But now you have to bring those delicious slices of cake to those girls, we'll talk later.-

I sighed and grabbed the tray. She was really strong-headed when she wanted to, so I knew I would get any more info at the moment.

-Okaaay. But we'll talk later then. Don't forget.-

✧･ﾟ:*✧･ﾟ:*♥ *:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧

The day ended without any problem. As I turned the little sign to"closed" I rushed to the kitchen and crossed my arms.

-Okay, so what's going on?-

Alice turned her head to look at me.

-You really can't even wait till I finish with the dishes?- I shook my head firmly. -You know, I would finish faster if someone helped me...-

-Stop trying to dodge the answer. You've been really weird lately, you don't wanna spend time with me and never answer my calls... Oh... OH!! Could it be... ARE YOU SEEING SOMEONE?!

She almost broke the glass on her hands, wich had slipped at the mention of a lover

-N-No I'm not. I'm just a little bit tired lately and just wanna sleep when I get home.-

-Then you're really okay? No secret Romeo??-

-Yup! I promise, trust me. Now go home. I'll go as soon as I finish with this.- I sighed but grabbed my jacket reluctantly.

-Okaaay.Remember to call me or text me when you get home. And be careful.-

I took one last glance at her as I closed the door.
