Run

Chapter 8

Sailor watched as Tommy put the last box down into the living room.

"Okay, I think that's everything." Tommy said as he swiped the hair out of his eyes.

The couple finally moved into their house, and Cindy, Ziggy, Joan, and Gary were helping.

"I can't believe you two are actually getting married." Gary said as he looked between the couple.

"I think it's super groovy." Joan said as she wrapped her arm around Sailors shoulder, causing the girl to laugh.

"Well, what can I say? He just can't get enough of me." Salior teased as she smiled over at Tommy.

"Oh yeah?" Tommy asked, making his way over to her, but she backed away from him.

"Tommy no. No, Tommy." She squealed as he threw her over his shoulder and spun around as he tickled her side. She laughed once he put her down and pulled her close to him. "You're so mean." She teased as she poked his chest.

"You love me anyway." He said, smiling down at her.

"Yeah, I guess I do." She said and went to kiss him but stopped once she saw a flash of red hair storm pass them. She looked over to see Ziggy marching out of the house.

Sailor pulled away from Tommy and followed after Ziggy. All day, Ziggy had been giving her the cold shoulder, and she didn't understand why.

"What just happened?" Gary asked as he watched the two girls walk out, and Tommy just shrugged and grabbed one of his boxes and went to his room.

"Zig." Salior called for her, but the girl didn't stop walking. "Ziggy." Salior grabbed her wrist, causing the redhead to turn around.

"What!" Ziggy snapped, causing Salior to be taken back, not expecting her to snap.

"What is your problem today? What's going on?" Salior asked, but Ziggy just shook her head.

"Nothing, how about you just go back to your perfect house with your perfect fiance." Ziggy said, rolling her eyes. Sailor stood there shocked, not knowing where this outburst was coming from.

"Sit down, and let's talk." Salior tried to say, but Ziggy shook her head.

"No, out of here. Have a nice life." Ziggy said, going to turn around, but Salior stopped her.

"Is that what this is about? Me moving on with my life?" Salior genuinely asked. Ziggy didn't say anything for a minute and just looked down at the ground. "Look Zig, just because I'm getting married and I moved to a different house, doesn't mean I'm going to forget about you, I'm still going to be the same Salior you know and love." She said, and Ziggy looked at her.

"Well, sorry that it feels like it." Ziggy said with an attitude.

"I could never forget you, Zig. Just know that my door is still always open for you at any time. Doesn't matter if it's in the middle of the night. You're always welcome over. Come here." She pulled the gir into a hug, and Ziggy groaned, hating to be hugged, but Salior just laughed, knowing that she hated them.

"Gross, you know I hate hugs." Ziggy said as she pushed her away.

"Hey, one day you might just miss my hugs." Salior said, causing the redhead to roll her eyes.

"Yeah, right." Ziggy scoffed, not believing she would.

"Come on, the pizza should be here soon." She said as she grabbed her hand and pulled her back to the house.

When they walked through the front door, Salior saw that Cindy and Gary were helping unpack and that Joan was about to light up a joint, so she walked over to her and snatched it out of her hand.
