Inez
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Every day since I left felt like hell for me. Sometimes it literally was with Deimos and Phobos little visits.

I eventually moved in with Cora as money for hotel was tight. I worked all day at the restaurant and went to the cafe these two months otherwise I never showed my face outside as I didn't want to run in to Ambrose.

I missed him so much my heart ached without his presence. We had only known each other for half a year but it was truly something real, with or without a soul-tie.

How would that even work? Us being soul tied but not endig up together? Surely it could happen but would we even be happy being apart?

All these questions and regret inside of me was bubbling up more and more for each day, And tomorrow is my birthday.

Cora decided that we should go out for a girls night to celebrate and I didn't fight it because I could certainly use it.

Today I just had to finish up my last hour at work. The day was rough but I managed through it. At the end of the shift Maria walked in to the kitchen as I was cleaning.

"Hey, Inez! Our last customers wants to compliment the chef!"

"Well I couldn't let them down at the end of the night" I smiled as I wiped my hands and made my way out to the tables. I looked around the restaurant to see all the empty tables except the back of a gentleman in the very corner of the restaurant.

"Hello-" I said walking up to the table but stopped a few feet away from them. From the table the two men looked over to me with a wicked smile.

"Hello, Flower" Deimos smiled at me.

"Flower? What a dumb nickname" Phobos laughed at his brother. I felt like backing into a corner and covering my eyes until they were gone. Instead I tucked my fist behind my back and took a deep breath.

"What are you doing here?" I asked trying to sound confident but it came out like a whisper.

"Well, we liked the food and wanted to compliment the chef" Deimos smirked.

"I thought we were here to scare her?" Phobos said.

"Shut up!" Deimos roared back. I felt goose bumps going up my spine as I put on a smile.

"Well. I'm glad you liked it. If you'll excuse me" I said and almost ran back to the changing rooms. I grabbed my purse and waived to Maria as I rushed out of the restaurant.

As I walked to the parking lot I watched over my back but didn't see them again. On the parking lot I watched the empty parking space I thought I left my car at. Scratching my head I looked around the parked cars but didn't find mine anywhere.

"Need a ride home flower?" Deimos voice shouted from the streets. The guys were leaning against their own car with a smirk.

I turned the other way and decided to walk home instead.
