I pulled the clothing out of the bag, ugh, red. I hated wearing red.
"if we're going to be staying here for free then the least we can do is help around."
i heard Freya whisper something to herself but just shrugged it off. i pulled up the rest of my stockings. I could already hear Kalista fawning over this outfit, she always did like me in red.
Snapping out of my thoughts, i turned to Freya.
"Princess, you ready?" I asked as I watched her ears perk up. She turned to face me and I headed down the stairs with her.
I watched Kalista walk over to us, we was holding a tray of empty drink glasses. God the men here can drink...
I watched Kalista eye us up and down "Ali my love you look wonderful!" She exclaimed with a bright smile.
"Kalista how many times do i have to tell you not to call me that...?" I sighed and picked up a tray, making my way past her to wait on some tables. I heard Kalista make another low comment but I didn't pay attention to it. Probably something about how I look.
I've waited tables before so it wasn't very hard for me to get into the swing of things. I brought some drinks, took drinks back, smacked a few men for trying to touch me. This reminds me of the shop... I should write to Benjamin..
I looked over to Freya and smiled a little, she seemed to be doing just fine. Her cute charm has captivated a lot of the men that she is waiting tables for. Good, maybe no one will touch her. I walked past Freya on my way back to the bar, stopping to ask her if she's getting the hang of waitressing. She nodded as she wiped down a table.
After the last customer had left for the night and we had cleaned everything, Kalista turned to us with another bright smile.
"Tomorrow is closing day! We should all go to the beach!" She exclaimed happily.
"Not a bad idea. What do you think, princess?" I asked, turning to her. It had been a while since I'd been to the beach.
Freya nodded with a smile as well "I like the idea~" she said happily.
"Alright we'll have a beach day tomorrow." I smiled patting her head gently.
Freya and I walked upstairs as Kalista locked up the shop, I was so ready to get out of this uniform. Skirts aren't my thing...
"Alright Aleah~ you can sleep with me tonight~" Kalista said leaning in her bedroom doorway. She was wearing a tank top and underwear. If we were still dark it probably would have made me blush. She has a nice body but I'm not here to rekindle an old love. I'm here to protect the princess. Suddenly I hear Freya pipe up from behind me.
"NO!!!"
My eyes widened as I turned around to look at her, I watched her cover her mouth. Her eyes were wide and they looked like they were about to tear up, she spoke once more.
"I-I didn't mean to say that out loud.... I-I'm deeply sorry..."
I watched as she shook a little, her ears flattening to her head. She looked.... scared? Embarrassed? I'm not sure... it's definitely not normal.
"Kalista I think I should sleep with Freya tonight, so I can keep an eye on her." I spoke up whilst walking over to stand next to Freya, I watched Her gaze shift to the ground as I guided her into the bedroom.
I got changed and walked over to the light switch.
"Go ahead and get into bed, Princess" She did so, not looking at me as I slid into bed next to her. I sighed a little as I looked at her. I could feel her trembling.
"Freya..." I started but trailed off as I watched her start to sniffle and shake a little more.
"I'm sorry...." she spoke shakily, trying not to cry.
My heart sank.
