The Sheriff's Daughter ; Sw

IV

We were standing in line, waiting to buy food as I seen Shawn walk in.

"Um, maybe you should go get the seats. I'll get the snacks" I smiled, she nodded and walked off.

I let out a shaky breath as Shawn looked down at his phone, dialing someone's number.

Please don't be Brandy's

"No....I-.....If you'd just listen.....fine....bye!" And the call was over as quick as it started.

I smirked to myself as he stormed out.

I bought popcorn and two sodas and some candy, for a ridiculous price.

I found Brandy at the top, kindly telling a couple that the seat was taken.

She waved me over and I smiled as I hurried up to her.

"I seen Shawn" I started, I needed to say something -- anything to keep him away from her.

"Ugh, yeah he said he had 'work' to do" she rolled her eyes,
emphasizing the word work.

"Yeah, I seen him with some girl. Said she was his sister"

I smirked to myself as I watched her head turn to the side from my peripheral vision.

"Was this sister, older?"

"Yeah, she looked about 18" I shrugged, my lies obviously getting to her.

"What did she look like?" I could tell it was hard for her to keep her voice calm and collected.

"Blonde, tall, freckles" I was good at lying when it came to what I wanted.

"Vanessa" she seethed, her mouth turning into a frown.

She looked almost as if she were gonna cry.

It almost made me want to admit I was lying to her.

Her beautiful facial features changed from happy, to sad in a matter of one minute.

"Are you okay?" Sam asked, wanting to do nothing but comfort her.

"I'm fine"

Now I feel bad, fuck.

"Do you think it's because I'm ugly?" Brandy asked, looking at me as previews started.

"No, not at all you're beautiful" I admitted, looking shamelessly at her beauty.

"This always happens, I swear" she laughed, her eyes glossy.

"Maybe I should just be a lesbian" she added.

"Its okay, Brandy. He's a dick for cheating, you're one of a kind" I gave her a small wink and she smiled.

"Thank you, Sam" she nuzzled into my side peering up at the movie.

One white lie wouldn't hurt anybody would it?

"Thank you for tonight Sam, I really enjoyed it" Brandy said as we sat inside my car in front of her house.

"Its no problem doll, you deserve it" I smiled

"Well, I better go, you know my dad. He might call out a whole fucking search party"

"I'll walk you"

"I hope to see you soon" I said without thinking.

Now she's gonna think I'm a weirdo.

"I'd like that" Brandy walked closer to me and left a swift smooth kiss on my cheek.

"Goodnight, officer wilk" she unlocked the door and walked in waving goodbye.

This girl is gonna get me in so much trouble
