Chapter 17:

(3rd Person's POV)

Cleo walked into the café and sat at a table, waiting for Cliff after getting a text from him. She had lost her drive and she wasn't even motivated enough to try and get back on top of things. She kept her eyes on her phone while wondering what was so important Cliff couldn't call or text her instead.

Cleo got up to order a latte and muffin at the front counter. Skylar and Violet weren't working today unfortunately.

After Cleo got her muffin and latte from the cute barista, she walked back to her table Cliff happened to be sitting at. She smiled, racing over to the table. She pecked his cheek and sat in front of him.

"What's up?" Cleo took a bite out her muffin.

Cliff giver her a small smile before sighing. "You have the prettiest smile. You know that?"

Cleo try to cover her blush. Cliff grabbed her wrists and removed her hand from covering her red face. "Don't hide yourself. I love making you blush."

"I'm sure you do." Cleo took a sip of her latte as Cliff chuckled.

"So...what I wanted to tell you...is that-"

"Cliff, my car isn't starting."

"Give me a sec Donna-"

"Go fix it."

Cliff gritted his teeth and looked at Donna. "After I talk to Cleo."

Donna yawned. "Now!" Cliff rolled his eyes.

"I'm so sorry Cleo. Let's...take a rain check?"

Cleo nodded disappointed but hid it with a fake bright smile. Cliff walked out of the café and Cleo sighed not realizing Donna was still there. Cleo met her eyes and Donna glared at her before walking away. Cleo raced over to her "Wait!" and grabbed her shoulder.

Donna arched her eyebrow while giving a "What the fuck?" face.

"Why the hell don't you like me?" Cleo sighed.
Honestly...and truthfully."

"Honestly and truthfully?" Donna mocked her in a high pitch voice. "You're a whore, slut, and you almost ran me over so...you're also a blind bitch."

Cleo searched her eyes for truth to her words. "That's what you honestly think of me?" Cleo's eyes met the floor.

"You're not gonna cry..."Donna chuckled. "are you?"

Cleo sniffled while shaking her head. Donna rolled her eyes and walked away from Cleo and towards the exit. She put her palm on the door handle and stopped there for a good 2 minutes before turning back around.

Cleo had tears streaming down her face. "You're so called boyfriend, my stupid little brother is the one who stole your test and used it as his."

"That's not true." Cleo shook in head in disbelief.

"Oh, it is."

"How do you know that?"

"After he came home, he was smiling widely and that's when I know he's using his idiot face. He told me he got an "A" on his Spanish test due to all the tutoring sessions you helped him with...which you guys had like what? 4 sessions? Yet, he never studied and tried to when you weren't there. So, how could've he gotten an "A"?" Donna yawned and rolled her eyes. "So, when he went to take a shower, I roamed through his bag...neatly so he wouldn't get the idea something's missing. I found the test and I knew it was far from his work. It wasn't even his handwriting."
