My Flower Boy (1x1)

[lassassin]

Elliot looked at Ava from the corner of his eye. He was about to comment about her purchase but his phone rang. He excused himself and turned to answer the phone. "Nico, what do you want?"


"Who is this? Why do you have Ell- your someone else right?"


"Yes, now what you want?"


"We ran out of milk and I want tea. Go get some."


Elliot sighed, "Fine, anything else?"


"Nope, thanks." Nico clicked off and left Elliot hearing the dial tone. Elliot turns to Ava and gives an apologetic smile.


"I uh have to go."

 

[iMeisaki]

"Um..me too..Have fun at work...I hope you win the building." Ava turned around and started walking towards the bus stop. She gave out a sigh and saw that the bus was about to leave. "Oh shoot! Wait!!" She ran towards the bus hoping she would make it in time.

 

[lassassin]

Elliot turns to the way they had walked but stopped walking when he heard Ava distress. 'What should I do? I'll stay a little longer or maybe I can just leave.'

 

[iMeisaki]

As the bus didn't stop she ran trying to stop it but accidentally tripped and landing on her knees almost falling on her face. "This just really isn't my day.." She said to herself. She stood up and noticed her knees were bleeding. She started walking towards the cross walk to go the store to get bandages. She was somewhat limping in one leg but she managed, she was tough.

 

[lassassin]

An group of elderly woman passed by, talking about "the poor girl having a bad day". Elliot thinks and comes up with what he thought a brilliant plan. He goes again to an alley way and shape shifts to himself and walks to the store. He goes to the refrigerated aisle to get milk then roams the aisles to find Ava. When he turns a corner he bumps into her.

 

[iMeisaki]

"Oh sorry! Didn't mean to run into you!" She smiled and walked the other direction to go the other isle. She went to the bandages and accidentally dropped one of her bags. "Shoot.." She sighed and tried to pick up the bags but first she needed to fix her knees.

 

[lassassin]

"Don't worry, I got it." Elliot smiles and picks it up, handing it to her. "That's a nasty scrape you got there." Points to your injured knee.

 

[iMeisaki]

"Yea.." She laughed. "Fell trying to catch a bus but I'll be okay once I get these wonderful things." She said pointing to the bandages. She grabbed the bandages and then took the bags from him. "Thanks." She smiled and walked toward the register.

 

[lassassin]

Elliot jogs to catch up. "Call this male heroism or male ego but let me help you. Oh uh my name is Elliot. What about yours?"

 

[iMeisaki]

"It's Ava and it's okay, I don't need help really. I'm tough, just kinda having a tough day. But anyway! I'll be okay but thank you Mr. Elliot but I will be going." She smiled after putting her bandages on.

 

[lassassin]

Elliot looks a bit dumbfounded than shakes his head. "You said earlier that your bus left you, I wouldn't mind driving you to your home." Looks at her with his I-won't-take-no-for-an-answer.

 

[iMeisaki]

"Hmm I don't know you, you could be an ax murderer! Or a kidnapper!" She glared at him and tried not to laugh. She looked down at her phone to see if she was getting a call from Amanda or Maya.

 

[lassassin]

"True, you don't know me but," lifts his arm that holds the milk jug. "How many you know that needs to buy milk?" He chuckles slightly but stops when she gives him the glare, Elliot coughs. "Sorry, I'll uh just be on my way but before I go," reaches into his pocket, pulls out a flyer for his dance studio. "Swing by for a free lesson." Elliot leaves to cashier register.

 

[iMeisaki]

She started to laugh to herself. 'I can't dance to save my life, plus I'm embarrassing to watch' She thought to herself while laughing. "Thanks Elliot!" She said while he was leaving. She looked at her phone and realized that Maya and her son was waiting for her at a park. "Come on.." She was frustrated and laughed. She quickly ran out of the store and started to head to the park.

 

[lassassin]

Elliot grabs his shopping bag and heads out, walking to his car. He sees Ava walk through the park. "Ava." 'Hope she doesn't hurt herself.' He laughs and opens the driver seat door. "Ava." Elliot says her name again. He liked the name.

 

[iMeisaki]

She finally got to the park and saw Maya and her son taking photos. "Ava!!!" Maya yelled. "You're finally he- what happened to you?!" She asked. "Kinda fell trying to get here but I'm okay!" Ava replied. "Alright...Anyway! Help me take some shots with my son, I gotta post these on my blog to help sell a product!" She told Ava. A half an hour passed by and Ava, Maya, and her son were going back to Maya's place to drop her son off. Then they went back to Ava's place to have drinks with Amanda.

 

[lassassin]

Elliot parks the car, adds money to the meter and climbs the step to the apartment. Knocks five times, waits then knocks one more time. The door rattles and swings open. Revealing an almost five foot red head guy with glasses. "What took you so long?" Snatches shopping bag and goes to the kitchen. Elliot sighs, entering the apartment. "Nice to see you too, Nico. I was with Ava." Nico pokes head out. "Ava?" "Yes, she is this girl who got dumped and I wanted to help her but she didn't seem to need my help." Elliot sits on the recliner. Nico comes out of the kitchen, stirring a cup of tea."Tsk, tsk. Elliot you need to stop being charitable." "Oh yeah? Well you need to stop being my mother. I'm going to the studio." Elliot gets up and grabs his gym bag, leaving Nico sipping his tea.

 

[iMeisaki]

Amanda came out of her room with the last box. Maya and Ava entered the house and sat at the table. Maya went in the fridge and took out a couple beers and gave them each to everyone.


Maya started talking "So Amanda...tonight is your last night. I'm glad you finally found the right guy, when are we going to meet him?" She asked.


Amanda looked away not knowing what to say. "You'll meet him very soon, don't worry" She replied. The two both nodded at Amanda.


"Ava, why do you look so down?" She asked. Ava was finishing her third beer.


"Today just hasn't been my day..First my furniture didn't sell again..Then Joseph said he wanted to break up with me and then he came running out saying that he didn't mean it. Then he started pulling me everywhere. He wasn't acting himself but he was just mean.." She finished the third bottle and opened the fourth.


Amanda looked away and got angry. "I gotta leave, my fiancee is waiting for me at the new place..." She said leaving in a hurry.


"She's acting weird for some reason..But anyway, I can't believe that Joseph. The next time I see him..I'm gonna give him a good old beating. And you Ava..give me the bottle!" She yelled.


"No!! You can't make me!! I'm sad!!" She yelled back.


A couple hours later, Ava was passed out on the sofa and Maya had left. Ava woke up to hearing her phone ring. It was Joseph..

 

[lassassin]

"Hey Ava-" Joseph is heard from Ava's phone. "I have something to tell you." He puts a hand over the receiver, you can hear that he is speaking to someone else.

 

[iMeisaki]

"Y-yes.. Joseph? What is it? It's late and I'm tired.." She said replying to him. She was still kinda drunk from all of the alcohol.

 

[lassassin]

"I... You... I never was with you. I hate to say this but... we don't work. I never... I'm" Joseph again puts his hand on the receiver. "Amanda, why can't you do this?"

 

[iMeisaki]

"What? What are you talking about Joseph..? Why are you acting weird again.." She looked at her phone.. 12 a.m. and then she put the phone back to her ear.

 

[lassassin]

Joseph sighs in frustrations. "I've been seeing Amanda!"

 

[iMeisaki]

Her eyes widened. "What..? But.. so your wedding is tomorrow..and you.." She dropped her phone after she hung up. She didn't know what to do. The morning came and Maya entered the house. It was trashed, it was like a thief came in and messed up the whole house. "Ava?! Where are you?!" She called out for Ava. Then she found her sleeping on the floor with a blanket over her.

 

[lassassin]

Joseph looks over at Amanda. "It's done..." He looks down.
