He walked forward, wrapping her up into a hug.
He walked forward, wrapping her up into a hug.
She returned the hug happily, allowing her posture to slip.
Eli smiled to himself when he felt that. She's actually comfortable with me.
Manon didn't really want to let go, so she just stayed there as long as she could.
"Do you…have to go?" He asked.
She sighed, reluctantly pulling away. "Sadly."
He chewed on the inside of his lip and sighed, looking down at his bare feet.
She put her shoes on for the second time that day and was just about to walk past when she stopped. She bent down, pressing a kiss to his cheek, and then was waving as she walked out the door.
He blushed lightly, putting a hand on his cheek as she walked away.
Manon pulled out her keys, unlocking her truck and climbing in. She went to pull out her phone to text Renee and tell her she was on her way, only to spend five minutes checking her pockets and bag for it.
While she was in the truck, Lia had walked over to the home and knocked on the door. SHe once again stormed inside when it was open, this staring Eli in the face. "Well?"
"What?" He asked.
"What the hell happened? Why did she stay the night?"
"We fell asleep on the couch."
She rolled her eyes. "Yeah, sure, 'fell asleep.'"
"What are you trying to say?"
"Did you have sex or not?"
He dropped his jaw. "You're joking, right? You really think I'm going to have sex with a girl I had just met?"
"Well, you seemed pretty damn handsy to me."
He hesitated when he spoke, and Lia cut in with the sharpness of a knife. "Admit it. You're only with the whore for the money."
"She isn't a whore. And no."
"So all of last year was just some joke, huh?" She stepped forward aggressively, shoving him. "All the times I was over, all the laughs, all the games, nothing?"
"I-"
"Oh, shut up. You're so fucking dense. You have the mental level of a two year old."
((She's about to say some shit that'll make Manon want to fight her, guaranteed
Manon grumbled to herself and climbed back out of the car, making her way back up to the house. She frowned at the sound of yelling, and paused to listen, judging whether she should go back in or not.
"Listen, I'm trying my best. I was solely focused on getting Emma enrolled into school and keeping Jai-"
"Oh SHUT UP! Those girls are gonna grow up to be WHORES anyway! You're fucking up everything! You should've put them up for adoption, dickhead. At least they'd have someone there for them." She throw open the door…and walked right into Manon.
Manon raised an eyebrow, and her tone was cold as ice when she spoke. "I suggest you apologize, and head on your way."
She attempted to just push past her, which was in vain.
Manon didn't move except to, gently but firmly, push her back a bit. "I must admit, it was not much of a suggestion. Things like that are not to be said lightly, especially about a person's charges, who happen to be nothing but little girls."
Both of them stopped when they could hear light sobbing from inside the open door.
Her face hardened. "As I said. An apology is warranted. Now."
She sulked, moving back into the house.. But before she could take that first step inside, Eli shouted, "GET THE FUCK AWAY!" It was such a shock that Lia stumbled back like she was hit. His voice took on that raspyness that everyone's felt when they truly shouted at the top of their lungs, such a contrast from the silky, soft, and pleasant tenor that he was.
"Eli." Manon's voice was soft, her accent pleasant and soothing as she lost interest in making Lia apologize and stepped inside.
He had his back against the doorframe, his hands covering his face as he sobbed uncontrollably.
((He's so dramatic I love it
Manon turned an ice cold glare on Lia before crouching down in front of him, reaching out her hand to touch one of his. "Eli, she is wrong. You are doing absolutely wonderful with those girls."
He didn't respond.
She sighed and stood, focusing her attention back on Lia, towering over the woman menacingly. "In what universe is saying something like that okay? Vous êtes une personne horrible, vous rendez-vous compte?"
