*Song: Dress by Taylor Swift*

a/n: sorry guys this is later than expected. finals have started and its honestly kicking my ass. but once finals are over next wednesday i hope to get chapters out a lot faster. anyway thank you so much for supporting and i hope you really like this chapter. Its a bit longer than normal cause i wanted to make up for the delay~

The sun was peaking through the windows and it made your bedroom look like it was glowing. When you got up you began to stretch and make mental notes of everything you had to do for the day. Today was Sunday so that means you have to go to that stupid event up at Felix's house. Even just thinking of his name just gave you the creeps. That man was just so wrong and after everything Flip told you, you know that man is just unhinged.

And with that Flip and I had to be extremely cautious following the incident with Ron and Felix. Felix looked up Ron in the phone book and showed up at the house only to see the actual Ron Stallworth. Flip was able to convince them that his name is Ron and that it was just someone with the same name but Felix was of course still suspicious. If we went out I could only call him Ron just in case we run into them and Flip had to sleep at his place in case Felix decided to go to his place unannounced.

To say this was a stressful week for you is an understatement. The school was piling on course work and now you had an uncover job on top of your waitressing job. It was a lot but by you doing this you got a glimpse into Flip's work life and to keep an eye on his safety so it was worth it in the long run.

It was about 3 o'clock when Flip showed up at your apartment. We had to leave for Felix's house around 4:30 so you knew you should start getting ready. After showering you went into your room to try and figure out your outfit. You immediately went to just throw on jeans and a sweater but then realized you are about to walk into a house that is definitely still stuck in the 1950s so you knew you had to dress more 'feminine', whatever that means. You finally found a red floral wrap dress that hit your mid-calf but had a slit up to your thigh. You matched it with a jean jacket and some nude heels. You also decided on some natural makeup and just simple loose curls to pull the look together.

Finally after getting ready you headed to the kitchen to grab a snack, figured whatever they made was going to be bland. You pulled out a Cliff Bar and went to join Flip in the living room. When you walked in Flip's eyes immediately went to you. His eyes were dark as they took in your entire body from head to toe but you couldn't really cipher for what it meant. It looked like lust but you knew that probably wasn't it. Following the reaction you got from him during your training you decided not to say anything because you knew he saw your notice so you figured if it was something he would say something. He never did so you figured it was just some natural reaction and that it wasn't necessarily because it was you.

You cleared your throat to get his attention and it seemed to work. He stood upright way and said, "ah um yeah so you ready to head out"

"yeah let's go"

The ride to Felix's was extremely silent. Neither Flip nor you spoke a single word. It wasn't awkward or anything. You were just nervous about this entire situation and your brain running at a million miles per minute trying to come up with all the worst-case scenarios. It wasn't until Flip spoke that you remembered there was someone else in the car.
