Cookies & Cuffs

III| "His pregnant fiancé!"

Melody

I stare ahead at the man who was staring back at me, observing my every move, until he finally speaks, "so tell me the truth, who sent you here?"

I sigh, "for the last night no one sent me here expect for my dumb self. And, yes I willing brought myself here for very important reasons," I answer his unasked question because I could just see his confusion.

He raises a brow at me, as he narrates, "so let me get this straight, you willing signed yourself up for this, to meet dangerous criminals, so you could stalk James,"

I awkwardly shift and mutter under my breath, "Well when you put it like that..." but I quickly recover and sit up straight, "hey! I'm not judging you on your life choices so don't judge me,"

He shrugs, "oh I'm not judging you-" I give him a blank stare at raising my brow at him, he continues, "Okay I'm judging you, but I'm more confused,"

I shrug this time, while nonchalantly saying, "Honestly I don't understand why, I told you I'm a reckless human being who does things before properly thinking them through, which you can thank absent parental figures,"

He stares at me blankly, while slowly blinking before sighing, "geez," He mutter under his breath.

I quickly sit up straight, "Anyways, shush here comes the love of my life," I watch James as he walks through the room, that charming smile plastered on his face.

"By the way, can you stop visiting me," he says, turning my attention back to him I notice, his stare was demanding and pretty scare...

I pout and frown, ignoring his stare, "I thought we were friends,"

He rolls his eyes, "no,"

Giving my best puppy look I continue, "please, I even shared-"

He sighs, cutting me off, "shared your lame jokes, no thanks,"

I frown, "meany! So how's prison?" I never ask what he was in for, kinda terrified that it might be something really bad and could probably scare me away.

He stares at me blankly, causing me to fidget under his intense gaze, "so..."

"It's great," he responds blandly, leaning back in his seat and arms folded.

I stiffly nod, "erm that's good," suddenly remembering what I had brought, "Oh! I got you something,"

I quickly reach into my pocket, pulling out the paper I had brought, slowly unfolding it and laying it out on the table.

"is it my release papers?" He asks unbothered, not even glancing at the paper,

I roll my eyes at him, "no-"

He cuts me off, "then it's not important,"

I groan, " stop being a jerk and just look at my hard work,"

He glances down and pulls a confused face, "It's shit, what's that even supposed to be,"

I gasp, fully offended, "what! You dumb uneducated idiot, a spent my time and effort to make this," lies literally toke me 2 seconds, "it's a drawing of a cake, you know since I can't actually get you real food, I got you a drawing,"

He looked back up at me, his brow raised, "what do you expect me to do with it, you know since I can't eat it and I sure as hell ain't hanging it up,"

I narrow my eyes at him and pout, "why? Hang it up and it'll bring some life to your room,"

"No,"
