Outcasts Within Our Being (A Mianite Fanfic)

Chapter 3 - Do I Know You?

???'s POV

I grabbed some of deez nuts. I got em from the grocery bags on the countertop. (I don't know XD I just wanted to) I turn on the television and immediately changed to the news channel. There had to be some sort of update on those mysterious looking citizens.

Carter took a seat, handing a cup of coffee to me. I thanked him and began to listen. Just as I expected, there was breaking news at the police station.

"There has been a mistake. We have not captured the Risen Assassins. The true Risen Assassins are out there somewhere; please do beware." The woman explained. "But please be cautious and keep an eye on these people. Please call us immediately if there is some strange activity."

I slammed my hands onto the coffee table as Carter spat out his coffee. We met eye contact and frowned. Great. I knew the facade wouldn't last long. I sighed and slumped in my chair. That's when I realized; I know what to do. I smirk and gesture Carter to follow me.

"I know how to brighten the mood."

3rd Person's POV

The crew was released from the police office not too long ago. They had decided to check out some more shops and find some restaurants. One shop caught all of their attention; a  bakery/restaurant.

Many walking citizens had told them about the delicious wonders of Foodie Touches, so they decided to check it out. Sonja huffed as she walked inside the shop, making the bell above the door jingle.

"Copiers..." Sonja murmured, arms crossed. "Mine was better anyways..."

The boys followed along, curiously checking out the place. There were many tables and chairs with people scattered around. There was two young women behind the counter, joined by three men creating pastries. As the group began to walk to the counter, each began to pick something they would like.

"One la cocoa cheesecake, please." Sonja requested, looking at all the pastries encased inside the stand. (I don't remember the name .-.) "Oh, and do you have any Arizona?" The lady shook her head. Sonja frowned and stepped aside so the others could order.

"Gimme some of your best desserts. Surprise me." Tom demanded before leaving to pick out a table. "Oh yeah, and Wag, your paying!" Wag gave him an angry glare and sighed.

"But I don't have any-" Wag groaned and face-palmed. "Do you have any free samples..?" He muttered. Tucker decided to get a strawberry lemonade just because it was cheap.

As for Jordan, he seemed to mesmerized by the woman who was stepping out of the counter. She took off her apron and sat in a table in the corner of the room. Something about her was so familiar, but he couldn't figure out what.

He walked up to her and smiled. The lady realized his presence and glared at him. Her eyes were so beautiful. They weren't exactly blue or green, but they weren't hazel either. There wasn't really a name you could give her eyes.

"I don't know if you can't tell, but I'm on break." She stated. Jordan suddenly got out of his trance and flushed.

"Oh I- uh..." He began to say. The girl frowned and sighed. She looked at him once again in confusion. She was waiting for Jordan to leave, but he just stood in place, looking at her deeply.

"What?" She questioned, obviously annoyed. For a split second, her fierce features softened, thinking she knew him. No, it might just be a coincidence. He left after... She furrowed her eyebrows and threw away the thought.

Her indescribable eyes met his once again, Jordan blushing in embarrassment. "S-sorry. You just look familiar... M-my name is-"

"This is Sparkly Dick!" Tom exclaimed, his arm around Jordan's shoulder. The lady was the one to flush this time, trying to hold in her laughter. "I think my bud over here got a crush!" Tom winked at Jordan.

Jordan pushed away. "N-no! I just met her! She just looks-"

"Hot?" Tom finished off his sentence and smirked. The girl sighed and rolled her eyes at Tom. She face-palmed and groaned. She was obviously mad. Really mad.

"Are you guys hitting on me?" She asked, arms crossed.

"N-no, ma'am!!" Jordan responded instantly. "It was just a mistake, Tom is just-" Jordan sighed. He was at a loss of words. He couldn't get away with this one.

"Anyways, Sparkly Dick and Tom, you just took up my whole break. Thanks a lot." The girl sighed before standing up.

"S-sorry..." Jordan murmured.

She cleaned up the table, grabbed her drink, and headed back to the counter. Jordan gave Tom an annoyed glare. Tom smirked and patted Jordan's shoulder. "Smooth one." He said, before walking to the table where the others sat.

Jordan followed, sitting next to Tucker. The whole group looked at Jordan, as if he did something. Jordan frowned. "What?" He asked.

"We all saw what happened over there." Tucker stated. "Who is she?"

Jordan looked at him and sighed. "I... I really don't know... But I have this big feeling in my chest... That... I met her somewhere." He muttered. Tom snickered while stuffing food in his mouth.

"He sure got that lady." Tom teased. "To run away, at least."

An employee walked to their table and glared at them. He placed a piece of paper on the table. All of them looked up at the guy. "Are you gonna pay or not?" He demanded. All eyes went to Wag.

"Why do you expect me to have money?!"

Tom chuckled and patted the guy's back. "H-heyyyy bro! How 'bout ya give us a discount? Or maybe you can give us a chance, put it on the house..?"

The man gave him a threatening glare. "Either you guys pay for your order, or get arrested."

That's when a bright idea came across Sonja's mind. "We'll work here!" She exclaimed. All heads turned to her. She did want to work in Foodie Touches again. It may not be exactly the way she remembered it, but it would be a fun experience.

"It's settled. We'll work here! Then we can earn the so called money to buy anything we please!" Sonja explained.
