Me and Blake Weatherly

Chapter 57

I'm surprised that mostly everyone is for Elaine.

O:

That kind of shocks me. Hmmm but you know somehow it'll end up being what it's going to be.

Hint: The story's title.

"Uh...I'm not sure I want to do this." I told Elaine as he dragged me by the hands, towards a random black tint that was on the beach.

"Of course you do!" He exclaimed, turning to me with those nice bright eyes. "Caitlin told me this is a pretty awesome place. You don't want to know your future?"

"I'm scared to hear it." I told him truthfully, chewing on my lip.

Seeing a fortune teller predicting my future sounds pretty risky. What if she tells me the exact date I'm going to die? Or get married? Or have kids? And what if she tells me I'll be with someone other than Blake? That'd be devastating!

....I'd rather let it all surprise me.

Elaine's smiled disappeared slowly, "But...we can look at them together. If we both do it, you won't be so scared. Will you?"

I stared at him as he gave me a innocent boyish look. How can I say no?

I sighed out a tired breath, "Okay..."

He grinned and once we went inside, there was a short line. I saw the lady at the front, sitting at a weird looking round desk. Once she stood up to hug the customer, I was shocked. She was so...small. She had long silver hair and gems on her head. But she looked American. I stared at her with weird eyes, while Elaine was still holding my hand. I was too distracted by the lady that I didn't even realize that our hands were hugging each other, and I didn't notice it was even our turn after a while.

Once Elaine and I went up, we sat down in front of her and she smiled.

"I charge right after." She winked at me and said, "Who's first?"

"I'll go." Elaine volunteered, smiling at her.

"Ah, the handsome young fella. Are you two together? I can sense this strong familiarity and chemistry between the two of you." She commented while wagging her silver eyebrows.

I felt my face fluster.

"No." Elaine corrected her slowly, "Just...friends. She has a boyfriend."

"Oh, really?" The lady asked. She shook her head and sniffed the air, "Call me Isabel."

"Nice to meet you, Isabel." Elaine said with a nod.

I couldn't even greet her. Her comment on both and Elaine and I was already getting me nervous. This lady looks crazy, but at the same time very nice. How can this be? Does that even make sense? I stiffened in my seat while she took Elaine's hand and felt on them. She closed her eyes, as if she was getting all of the future sources she needed just from the touch of his skin. He glanced at me and smiled, while I just stared at him.

After a minute, she opened her eyes and smiled.

"Very bright future indeed. You will go far, Elaine." She suddenly said.

Elaine and I gasped, and we exchanged glances at each other.

"How did you know my name?" Elaine questioned, raising an eyebrow with a look of stunned on his face.

"Why do you think I have this job? I live off of shocking others with my knowledge. Enough with that, let's see..." She rubbed her fingers against his, and then her eyes altered to meet his again, "What do you want to know first?"
