❤️Sodapop's love story ❤️

Oneshot #8

" Ms. Jones, your super-annoying-yet-somehow-good-looking boyfriend is here to see you" the secretary of my law firm teased through the dispatch. That's the good part of befriending most of your colleagues, you get a few laughs throughout the work day. There was a knock at my office door and I called for whomever it was to come in. My boyfriend, Sodapop, opened the door and the room practically lit up with his movie star grin.
" Hey, baby!" He smiled
" Hi darling, how are you?" I asked sweetly
"I'm good, angel, would you like to come over to my place after work?"
"I'd love to Soda but I have some errands to run today straight after work; I'm not quite sure how long they'll take. Oh the joys of being an adult."
" I could go with you if you want, My shift finished early today and the thing I love most is to spend time with you; I don't care what we do"
" I love you, Romeo"
" I love you too, Juliete"
He leaned on my desk and smiled at me, I couldn't help but smile back; he carried one of the two chairs on the other side of the desk, right next to mine as we brainstormed evidence to prove my newest client innocent for the last 30 minutes of my shift.

Once I had clocked out, We got into my car (He had walked to my lawfirm as it is near the DX) and drove to our local supermarket. I parked in the farthest spot we could find as per my boyfriend's request, his reasoning was that the farther we park, the more we get to walk, the more time we spend together. God, he's such a flirt, but I love him just how he is. We did just as we planned. Soda being Soda began to goof off as we shopped, " Sara, you're my one in a melon" Soda said holding up a bag of frozen watermelon chunks " You're berry cute, Sodapop" I replied grabbing some frozen strawberries and tossing them in the cart. An elderly couple glanced our way and smiled at us, Soda kissed my temple lovingly as it has become our thing to plant small kisses on each other for no apparent reason. We continued our shopping and took way longer than we should have because of our joking around but when you are in a relationship with Sodapop Curtis you deal with his juvenile nature and even join in on his childish antics.

We walked hand in hand to the checkout and a blonde, blue eyed employee rang us up. I came to the realization that I had forgotten the milk, I turned to Soda and explained my mistake and asked if he could help take the groceries to the cart in the meantime as I would be extremely quick. He agreed and pecked my lips before I dashed to the dairy aisle.

Sodapop's POV

Sara ran in the direction of the dairy aisle and I helped load the groceries into the cart as she asked of me. As I was doing so, however, the cashier started to lean forward.
" So who told you it was legal to look that good, hot stuff?" She flirted
Was she serious?!?
Her audacity was unbelievable, she was trying to persistently get with me even though she just saw me kiss my loving girlfriend!
" I'm sorry, But I have a girlfriend"
" So what? She isn't even that pretty. Why stick with her when you could get with someone like me?"
" I love my girlfriend more than anything, she is the most beautiful woman I have ever laid my eyes on"
" Just one little kiss won't hurt" she leaned over and grabbed my shoulders, pulling me close to her as I pushed her away. Her grip was freakishly strong but I kept denying her.

" LET HIM GO!" I heard that beautiful, badass, oh so familiar voice command with a growl from behind me.
" Don't you ever attempt to kiss my boyfriend ever again" she snarled as she snatched me back
" Well, he's clearly not happy in the relationship if he's gonna go and flirt with other women" the cashier snapped
" You damn liar, you were hitting on me!" I rightfully accused, Sara squeezed my hand in a " I know she did, don't worry; you're not at fault".
" I don't know what idiot you take me for but I clearly saw your attempt to kiss my boyfriend, you're disgusting" Sara denounced

Our yelling and accusations got the owner's attention. He came over and asked what was going on, we explained our situation and then the cashier made " her side" up completely, not spilling a gram of truth. He was in a tough position as he was exposed to two incredibly different stories, one was a lie but which one was it? Luckily for us, one of the other cashiers involved herself and explained the situation truthfully and all of the customers and cashiers backed us up. That no-good lying broad had her back against the wall and was caught in her lie. Needless to say, she was fired and the owner apologized profusely and gave Sara her groceries for free regardless of her protests that there was no need.

We walked out of the store and Sara and I got the groceries in her car and got in, instead of driving off right away though, we sat and talked for a bit.
" God, I love you Sara" I breathed
" I love you too, Sodapop; so so much" she replied
" Belive me, I will never ever cheat on you, nor flirt with another woman, much less kiss her, okay? You are too important to me" I assured taking her hands in mine
" I know Soda, and believe me I would never cheat on you, nor flirt with another man, much less kiss him either; Cuz we'll be together forever..."
" and always" I finished, 'forever and always' was another one of our things ( yeah, we have a lot; but when two people are as much in love as us, that just comes naturally). I leaned in and so did she as our lips connected a sweet kiss before we headed to her place where we cuddled and I stayed the night with her in my arms. God, please let me marry this girl someday.
