The Cuddle Pact with Eddie Munson

22

1 month later.

It was March, a few more days until spring break and it was the traditional trip to California to visit Luci and Dustin's Lita. Luci was actually dreading the days until the day of their trip. Dustin couldn't wait to go because he gets to see Jane and Will. He hasn't seen them since winter break. Also Nancy and Mike were also going to California to visit Jonathan and Jane. Luci was excited to California to visit her abuela but she visits every year. She kinda hoped not going this year. Luci puts her daydreams in the back burner and returns to the reality of work. She wipes down the bar table looking around aimlessly at the diner regulars. Lately,some nights at the Hideout the crowds were getting bigger and the band had to play in the parking lot. Sadly Luci wasn't there to see it but Eddie excitedly explained it.

Luci!!The crowd got so big we had to play in parking lot! Then even more people showed up! It was so cool. It actually felt like a concert! Nick said we might be growing out of  his place but we're always welcome to play there.

I'm so happy for you guys! It's everything you guys wanted. Playing for a big crowd. Going to the next level with your music careers You guys might be big as Bon Jovi!

I don't know about that but thanks Lu Lu.

I mean who knows Eds you could be their opening act on their next tour.

Just imagine that playing with actually Jon Bovi himself.

I can , I want tickets to see that.

Oh you definitely will Lu.

The dinner rush went quick for the time being, Luci saw Vikki and Robin come in. It's been a like week since she saw Robin which was okay since her and Vikki have been hanging out more recently. Luci couldn't be more happy for her.

"Hey strangers,"Luci said as she approached them.

"Hey Luci."

"What can I get for you both?"

"A strawberry milkshake."

"A Chocolate milkshake for me please."

"Extra cherries on top?" Luci asked Robin.

"Yes please."

"Coming up."

Luci comes back with their order and a plate fries for the shake.
"Aw you remembered!" Robin smiled.

When Luci and Robin hanged out for the first time, they both said in unison 'fries' to go with their milkshakes as the waitress asked if they wanted anything else.

"Of course I did."

"How was the concert by the way?"

"Oh my god! It was so good! Hearing them live is a whole different level."

"Yeah it was insanely cool! And thank you for letting me go, Luci," Vikki said fortunately.

"It was no problem I only know one song, I would've been bored anyways. I'm glad it went to good use."

"Enjoy let me know if you need anything else."

Luci couldn't help but glance at them so often, they looked so cute.
Robin left a note on the receipt saying, Call me after your shift. :)

Luci got home late-ish, she called Robin.

Hey Robin

Hi Luc how was your shift?

Terrible someone spilled their coffee on me. Seeing you guys was nice. How are things with you and Vikki?

I want to apologize.

What for?

Ditching you for Vikki.

Robs you don't have apologize for that. You're getting to know her more which involves you and her. Besides I've been hanging out with Steve on his lunch breaks.

I still feel bad.

You don't have to be Robs, we are good.

Yeah?

Of course Robs you can't get rid of me that easy.

Good. You've been hanging out with Steve?

Yeah, we hang out in the break room or sometimes at the counter.

You haven't hanged out with Eddie?

I mean I say Hi passing by and we talk but we hang out more when he comes back from practice. You haven't asked my question Robin.

Ugh I knew you gonna saw that.

I mean at the concert we held each others fingers.

This is huge! Anything happened after that?

No not really. I think we are better off friends.

I'm sorry Robs.

I'm okay with it.

I really thought.

I know you and Steve both.

If you still feel bad about it milkshakes on me.

Thanks Ana. Love you.

Love you too night Robs.
