Let's Fake It Moonshine - Ace Merrill

No feelings?

"So how about it then?" Theodore asked as he gently led Luna up to her front door.

She shrugged slightly as she let her arms away by her side.

"Can I think about it and let you know?"

Theodore laughed to himself. "What's there to think about? We clearly belong back together."

Yet before she could respond a car pulled up behind them as they both turned and saw Lexi and Jayme both stared at her from the car, Tommy in the front seat.

"Girls night out, get in Luna." Jayme ordered at her.

"So why is Tommy there?" Theodore asked confused.

"I'm dropping them off." He snapped back.

Lexi quickly got out the car and came over to her best friend, taking her hand she pouted up at Theodore.

"Sorry boy." She mumbled as she went to drag Luna away.

Theodore quickly reached out and took her wrist, holding her back.

"Guys." Luna grumbled, feeling herself being pulled apart.

They both stared at her expectantly as she looked up at Theodore.

"Let me think about it." She begged.

"Is there really that much to think about?" Theodore asked her blankly.

Luna nodded as he released his grip and Lexi tugged her closer almost instantly.

"Think about what?" She asked.

"Nothing that concerns you." Theodore replied sarcastically as he looked back at Luna.

"How about you let her think about how much of a jackass you are." Lexi grumbled as she looked away.

"Lex." Luna snapped at her before looking back at Theodore.

"Give me tonight to think about it. No discussion." She mumbled as she gave in and let Lexi pull her away quickly to the car.

The moment they were both in the car and the door was shut, Tommy instantly sped off, not wanting to be near Theodore anymore.

"Please tell me you are not getting back together with that arsehole?" Jayme asked as she turned from her spot in the front to look at Luna.

Lina sighed and shrugged. "He seems to have changed, we actually had a really good day."

Both the girls scoffed as they looked away.

"I'm serious, we had a really nice day, it was kinda perfect." Luna tried to explain.

"So why did you say you'd think about it?" Lexi asked her.

Luna was about to attempt to answer but Lexi continued.

"Why did you let me take you into this car and come out with us? You never used to come out so willingly when you were with him before?"

Jayme nodded in agreement as she continued to watch her.

"I got an idea for her answer." Jayme replied with a smile as both Lexi and Luna stared at her blankly.

"It's almost as if she has feelings for another guy and is struggling to move past them." Jayme smirked at Luna.

Luna scoffed and shook her head. "I have no feelings towards Ace."

"She didn't say a name Luna?" Lexi asked with a smile.

Luna could feel her body temperature rise and her cheeks darken as Jayme turned to Tommy.

"Hey baby, seeing as Luna doesn't have any feelings for Ace, she wouldn't have a problem drinking at Irbys where he currently is right?"

Tommy laughed and nodded as he went straight for the bar.

"Yeah no that's a bad idea." Luna tried to say.

"Why? You don't have feelings for him remember?" Lexi laughed.

Jayme nodded as she saw they were quickly approaching the bar. "It's just a few harmless drinks."

"Just a few harmless drinks." Lexi repeated as she reached out and took Luna's hand, giving it a small squeeze.

Tommy got out first, having parked up. He opened both doors for the girls to climb out as Luna stared up at the bar.

"Still not got feelings for him?" Lexi asked as she stood by her side.

"No." Luna snapped.

"Oh great." Jayme said happily, "so you'll have no problem going in first." She spoke as both girls shoved her forward and into the bar, closely following her.

Naturally all heads turned to the girls as they entered, except Luna's head remained looking down. She didn't want to risk looking up and seeing him.

"Damn he looks good tonight." Lexi whispered in Luna's ear as both her and Jayme laughed and pushed her along to a table.

"I hate you both so much you know." Luna grumbled as she sat down and physically fought against her body to not look over to where she could tell he was.

"I thought you didn't have any feelings?" Jayme asked sweetly as she looked over at her.

Lexi nodded as she leant across the table. "It was all fake right?" She asked with the same tone as Luna looked up between them both.

"I'm gonna get a drink." She snapped as she stood up and quickly walked over to the bar.

Both girls instantly started laughing.

"No feelings? What a load of bullshit." Jayme laughed out.

"Oh please, she ain't the only one with feelings." Lexi laughed out as she nudged Jayme.

Nodding her head forward, Jayme saw Ace standing with the others in his group as his eyes were glued to Luna's every move.

"What are we gonna do about her then?" Jayme grumbled as she nodded towards Betsy, who was also stood by Ace's side, glaring at Luna.

"Simple." Lexi answered as she noticed the way the other cobras seemed to ignore her, even the girl by one of them gave Betsy a grimace. "We get a little backup."

Jayme watched as Lexi stood up and walked over to the group. Everyone's attention but Ace's turned to her as she walked over to the girl.

"Hey I'm Lexi, we're friends with Luna." She spoke sweetly as she offered out a hand.

"Connie." Her reply came as she reached out and shook her hand.

"It's a pleasure to meet you Connie." Lexi replied as her eyes fell on Betsy. "We were just having a bit of a girls night and Luna wanted you join us?"

Connie instantly nodded as she turned to Billy. "You're okay?"

Billy nodded and grumbled. "Least you can get away from her."

Lexi gave him a confused look. "Get away from who exactly?"

Billy didn't answer but Lexi saw his eyes quickly glance over to Betsy.

"Well I'm sure our girls night can become a mixed night." She smirked as she leant closer. "Any of you that don't like the girl can come drink with us."

Billy's head snapped to her immediately. "You know Ace would kill us right?" He scoffed out.

Lexi shook her head as she looked over at Luna, who had sat back down with Jayme and was watching her curiously.

"He wouldn't want to hurt the girl that has feelings for him in return." Lexi smiled as she looked back at Connie.

"Drink?"

"Love to." Connie replied as she let Lexi drag her away to the table.
