Scarlet:Black hair,green eyes,33
Scarlet:I heard what happened with Lilith,is she ok?
Cole:Don't know,I've been avoiding her since she got out of the hospital
Scarlet:Why?
Cole:I'm afraid of what she'll say,I know she hates me but I'm too much of a coward to hear her say it
Scarlet:You don't know that,you had the feeling you were in danger and you defended yourself
Cole:I didn't defend myself because she didn't have a weapon and I didn't know for sure if she was someone dangerous
Scarlet:Then think of it this way,let's say she was an intruder who planned on murdering you and Alice,would you still have pulled the trigger?
Cole:Of course but she wasn't an intruder she was a friend who came to take back things that were rightfully hers
Scarlet:What about Alice? You talk to her?
Cole:I texted her last night,she said Lilith was fine and asked when I was gonna talk to her,but I didn't text back
Scarlet:Listen Cole I know your scared t9 face Lilith but you don't have a choice,you have to face your fears,it's hard to avoid someone that's on your hockey team and we have a big game coming up,if you worry too much about avoiding
Lilith your head won't be in the game and you could either get a puck to the face or ran over
Cole:Or we could lose,not that I'm saying I'm the only reason we win the games cause I'm really not,Hell I'm not any of the reasons we win the games
Scarlet:Yes you are,your just as important as the rest of us,you try your best and if we lose we lose
Scarlet sips her coffee
Scarlet:So you meet anyone yet?
Cole:Actually Yeah,he's a nurse
Scarlet:He? You find yourself a man?
Cole:Kinda
Scarlet:What's that mean?
Cole:Well it's a woman but she identifies as a man
Scarlet:Oh ok,gotcha,so what's he like?
Cole:He's sweet,kinda,caring
Scarlet:Is he rich?
Cole:He's got a lot of money
Scarlet:How much? Enough to be a sugar daddy?
Cole:About 5 million
Scarlet spits out her coffee
Scarlet:5 million!? And he's a nurse!? No way in hell!
Cole:He didn't get the money from being a nurse
Scarlet:Then where did he get the money from?
I motion Scarlet to come closer and she leans 9ver the table
I whisper
Cole:He's a mafia boss
Scarlet's eyes go wide
Scarlet:Mafia boss?
I nod
I see Miles through the diner window
Cole:He's here
Scarlet sits back
Miles walks in and looks around
I put my hand up and she looks over at us
She smiles and I slide over so she can sit down
Cole:Scarlet this is my boyfriend Miles,Miles this is my friend Scarlet
