This Killjoy Has A Bulletproof Heart

Awkward...O_o

"Hey, Chasity. Wake up sweetie." I felt Frank's hot breath on my neck as he whispered in my ear. I rolled over and buried my face in his chest.

"Good morning..." I mumbled. My voice was muffled because I had my face in his chest.

He laughed. "Good morning." I looked up at him and smiled. It's been about a week since we saved Grace from Korse and Better Living Industries.

Frank got up of the bed and I followed. We were the last to wake up, so we went to the kitchen, where the rest of the crew was at. Well all except Mikey, Aileen, and Grace. They were probably getting breakfast. We sat in the booth and said our good mornings.

I looked at all of them. They started a conversation with constant laughs and smiles. I was fucking lucky to end up in this family.

I looked at Frank and his smile made my knees go weak. He was definitely one of the best things that had happened to me in my life.

I was scared though. He said he loved me and I know he meant it. I meant it also when I told him I loved him. I meant it with all my heart. But this was a dangerous life to live. And love just made it harder. I was scared of what would happen to us. I was scared of what would happen to Frank.

I broke from my daze to see everyone laughing at something that Frank had said. I looked over at Frank and smiled at him. He smiled back and held my hand.

Grace walked to the booth carrying the cans of refried beans. We all opened them as Mikey and Aileen joined us in the booth.

"Are you okay?" Frank whispered in my ear. I nodded and smile at him. He seemed to believe me.

"So...are you and Mikey together, Aileen?" Grace questioned.

I looked up at Aileen and Mikey. They had shock written all over their faces. I looked at Frank and grinned at him jokingly. He knew what I was thinking. They did seem a little comfortable around each other lately.

"Wh-what?" Aileen asked. Her voice was full of shock too.

"Are you and Kobra together? As in a couple?" Grace asked.

Aileen looked at Mikey and he looked back at her.

"Uhm no Grace we aren't together. We're just," she paused, "we're very good friends."

Grace smiled and nodded. "Okay it's just that you seemed a little close in the kitchen." she said, emphasizing the word "close".

"Haha," she laughed a little nervously. "Well we aren't together so..." she left the sentence hanging awkwardly and it stayed like that until Evelyn spoke up.

"So, uhm since we're on the topic," Evelyn said, clearing her throat. "Ray and I have something to tell you."

"Yea." Ray said. "Uhm how do I put this? Uhm me and Evelyn, are uhm, we're officially together. As in a couple."

Woah...did he just say what I think he said?

"Congrats you guys!" Grace said, breaking the silence caused by the news.

"Yea, congrats guys!" I said. The rest congratulated them.

"Does anyone else have something to say while we're on the subject?" Grace asked.

Gerard and Mayra looked at each other. Mikey and Aileen looked at each other. I turned to look at Frank and he turned and looked at me. We all shook our heads.

"Okay...so what do you guys want to do?"

"Let's race again!" Evelyn exclaimed. We all looked at one another. "C'mon on it'll be fun!"
