A Job Well Done by the Daughter of the Goddess of Love ( MilkLove Fanfic AU )

a job well done by the daughter of the goddess of love

Act I.

It was a calm yet beautiful sunset when the woman Milk loved for more than a decade held her hand, opened her palm and placed a ring, the same ring she once knelt with and offered to her

"I can't do this, I'm sorry...." she said and walked away

And on that day, with tears damping her cheeks, Milk swore she would never love another.

*****

Act II.

"Thank you for helping me last night. I guess I drank more than I should"

Milk handed a glass of water to the young woman sitting across her dining table, eating a simple lunch she cooked in her kitchen earlier.

"No problem, why were you alone in that bar anyway?"

"I wasn't alone when I went there but the friend I went with left with someone else" she explained

Milk studied the young woman as she ate. She looked fine, like she wasn't drunkenly walking around the streets last night, and she didn't look mad at being left alone either. In fact, she looked like she had the time of her life last night and just enjoying the morning after, like on a vacation to some unknown place.

"You've been gracious to me, letting me in your home and giving me food, yet I don't even know your name"

"Milk, my name's milk"

"Like the beverage? How cute"
She smiled brightly,

and Milk couldn't help but think that between the two of them, she's the cute one.

"And you? What's your name?"

"I'm Love"

Milk scoffed, "Seriously, your name's Love? What are you, the daughter of Aphrodite or something?"

And Love propped up in her seat, "I am! How did you know?!"

If she had a tail, it would be wagging excitedly right now.

Milk playfully rolled her eyes, this girl might be very cute but her sense of humor is definitely weird.

"Anyway Love, I have to leave for work soon, so..."

"Oh yes, of course! I'm off to see more of this city so I'll be leaving too" she said and stood up from her seat

Milk watched as Love went to her and was surprised that she took her hand in hers nonchalantly.

"Thank you again Milk! I'm new to this city so it was quite lucky of me to find a friend here so quickly" Love smiled sweetly

And Milk returned the smile, just not that wide, "A friend. Yeah, sure"

And on that day, Milk truly did find a friend in Love, a friend that would be so closely by her side through thick and thin, that she would considered to be special.

*****

Act III.

"I told you I didn’t want to go on that date"

Milk slumped on the couch while Love was busy getting cold drinks from the fridge for the two of them.

"It's that bad?" Love sat next to Milk on the couch and handed her a cold can of soda

"Love, he's the most arrogant little shit I've met in a while, so yeah it's that bad" Milk replied, "At least the first dude I went on a date with was tolerable in conversation. This one was so over the top arrogant with his story-telling, I almost saw my brain because of how far I was rolling my eyes"
