Chapter 8: emergency!
Mira and Olive walk Side by Side, in silence.
Olive feels The Need to Break the silence; but She isn't sure what say...
And then a thought Pops in her Head, and before she thinks it over, she blurts it out. "Do you like music?" She mentally face palms, that's a dumb question, everyone likes music! Even witches- er- supernaturals!
Mira Looks puzzled. "What Kind of Music..?" She Mutters, glancing at Olive as they walk together in sync.
"Uhh..." Olive thinks for a second. "Do you like...P-Paramore?" Olive mumbles, stuttering her words, she chuckles nervously, her hands getting clammy.
"Para...more?.." Mira raises an eyebrow. "I've never heard of them..." Mira mumbles.
"You've never heard of Paramore?!- oh wait. Different dimensions...uh- a-anyways...you should listen to them! You uh- y-you Look Like you'd Listen to them...hehe..." Olive cringes, stammering out her words. God...that sounded so so soooo bad...it came out so wrong. Is it too late to change the subject. "Uhm- anyways-"
"Whats that supposed to mean?" Mira quirks an eyebrow, staring Olive in the eyes...too much eye contact...way too much eye contact...
"Y-you Uhm- you just Look Like you'd Listen to them? Like you Have Good Taste?..." She stumbles over her words.
"Oh." Mira has a neutral expression. "Well I've never listened to them..."
"I-I can show you if you want?" Olive asks, looking over at Mira for a split second, before looking down at the ground.
"Yeah...actually. I wanna hear what's so good about them..."
Olive nods and rummages through her bag, pulling out her phone and her Bluetooth earbuds, handing one to Mira. "I-it goes in your left ear..." Olive stutters anxiously.
Mira Grabs it, putting the earbud in, waiting for Olive.
Olive fidgets with her phone, before The Music starts playing, She flips through a few songs, before landing on 'emergency' by Paramore.
The pair Listen to the song for about a minute, Olive freezes, immediately turning to Mira, who was listening to the song.
Olive Grabs Mira And shakes her, her Touch slightly frantic.
Mira looks up. "What's wrong?"
Olive, at the exact same time as the song, says, "I think we have an emergency."
Mira giggles, "you Actually scared me stupid-" Olive interrupts her.
"No! Seriously!- look!-" Olive glances about 500 feet away...they're being chased. From the people at that tavern...
Mira's eyes widen, and she fumbles over her words, unable to speak. "I- what do we-" Mira is cutoff by Olive grabbing her hand and dragging her with her.
Mira glances down at their hands, then back at olive, then at the people chasing them...they're getting closer...
Olive runs through a forest, weaving through trees, finally dragging Mira And her in a bush, hiding from the crowd.
Olive breathes heavily, glancing back at the group of people previously chasing them, they seem to not know where the two went; so they continue to go forward.
Olive glances over at Mira. "I think we should stay here...they might come back." Olive wraps her arms around her knees, she picks at dirt on her boots.
Mira nods, looking at the dirt floor underneath the two of them, she fiddles with the earbud.
Olives watches her, smiling slightly. "Did you like the song?..." she asks, tilting her head slightly.
Mira nods, "I did...a lot" she rubs her neck slightly.
The two sit together, next to one another, chatting a bit, the sun begins to set...
Maybe tomorrow will be different.
