Long Lost Gem

Chapter 3 pt. 1

Hanging with the cool kids

Your pov

It was about 6 am. I looked around to see everyone still asleep. I got dressed into a (F/c) flannel and jeans. I curled the ends of my hair and put some in a loose pony tail and left my bangs untouched. I walked out into the cool air, a smile painted on my face. I walked to the pier and saw the lights of the pizza place on. I looked inside to see Kiki, I smiled and knocked on the door. She opened it with a confused look "(Y/n)? Girl what are you doing up so early?" She asked. "I could ask you the same question." I said with a toothy grin. "Well I'm setting everything up for another long and boring day of work." Kiki sighed "And I just wake up early." I shrugged. She chuckled and shook her head "Yeah ok." I giggled "Do you need any help? Or could I at lest come in?" I asked rubbing my arm. "Oh sure." She let me in and I looked around "If you could put the chairs down that would be great." Kiki smiled. "Yeah ok. And where are you off to then?" I asked placing my hands on my hips. "To count money and wash the dishes again." She yawned "Alright, but I get to turn the sign to open!" I smiled excitedly. "Deal." Kiki laughed and went behind the counter. I put all the chairs down in record time, mostly because there wasn't many. "Done Kiki," I said "Great. Thank you." She smiled "Can I turn the sign now?" I asked "Yeah. No one will come in for food in a few hours anyway." I fist bumped the air and rushed to the door. "Open!" I cheered turning the sign. Kiki laughed "You remind me so much of Steven." She said "Who's that?" I asked "Oh. A kid about your age, he has the brightest personality and view of everything." Kiki explained "I'm surprised you haven't met them yet." I smiled "Well now I'm excited to meet him." A girl walked in yawning "Ugh. Dad can be so annoying" she sighed, she looked at me and you could tell she was related to Kiki. "Oh. Who are you?" She asked,"This is (Y/n) Jen. (Y/n) this is my sister I told you about yesterday." Kiki introduced "Oh, the one that hangs out with Sour Cream." I smiled. "You know Sour Cream?" She asked with a smirk "Yeah he's my cousin! I haven't seen him in a while, actually I just came here yesterday." I said "This place is really cool. Better than where I come from anyway." I beamed "She reminds you of Steven doesn't she?" Kiki whispered to her sister while I went to the door and watched the sun rise. "Yeah. She looks like him too." Her sister nodded, "Hey (Y/n)? Why don't you hang out with me and my friends?" Jennie asked "Really? Uhm. But what about Kiki?" I asked "I stay busy handling the shop, I'm ok really, you need to see this place" Kiki reassured "Thanks Kiki!" I smiled. "Alright! Let me just go get ready" Jennie stretched and walked back to her room. "I should go get Soury then!" I said "Soury?" Kiki asked. "When I was little I had trouble pronouncing his name, its how all people get nicknames don't they?" I giggled "HMM.. yeah true." Kiki laughed ''See you later Kiki," I waved and jogged out of the pizza shop then jogging back to Aunt V's place.

3rd pov

(Y/n) quietly rushed up to her cousin, Sour Creams room and jumped on him. The teen groaned and pulled the covers above his head "Onion go away." he hissed "Come on Soury! it's about 7:30" (Y/n) laughed at his laziness. "Exactly the reason why I was still asleep!" he whined "Come on, get up! I met your friend Jennie today, she asked if I wanted to hang out with you guys today," she exclaimed, her eyes shinning with excitement. "Ugh, she takes about an hour to get ready why bother." by that (Y/n) got annoyed. She got up and threw the blankets off of Sour Cream and his pillow. "(Y/n)-" she smacked his head with a pillow and continued to until he finally got up. "Ok ok you win!" he grumbled ruffling his messy bed hair. "As I always do" She smiled "You have ten minutes before I come back in and teach you another lesson." she said and walked out. A small smile formed on Sour Creams lips, he never truly knew how much he missed his little cousin until now. "You have eight left!" (Y/n) called knocking on his door causing the young man to rush around his room in search of clean clothes.
