Forgive me, these aren’t the best, it’s been a while since I’ve written any type of story so I’m a bit out of practice. Keep in mind I’m also not finished school yet so my spelling and grammar may not be perfect, I’m trying my best though and I hope you enjoy reading them. :3

Roughly 3 months had passed since Mitzi had moved into the small town of Sunset Valley. In that short time she has proven herself an amazing helper at the police station, so helpful they gave her an official job, even if it isn’t much different from the stuff she was already doing the steady paycheck is helping her settle in well.

Mitzi also met a wide array of interesting new people, and even made a few new friends. August was definitely a favorite. After getting to know him over lemonade one day after work, Mitzi couldn’t help but feel fond of the shy blonde. It took some time to get him to open up with her more but she was sure it was worth it in the end, making new friends is always a great thing, but being friends with your crush is a huge bonus.

August wasn’t the only close friend Mitzi had so far, there was also Blair. Mitzi first met Blair the third week of work, after returning from a particularly complicated order for a coffee run to Simbucks Mitzi tripped over wet floor sign and would have spilled all the coffee had Blair not caught her before she fell. Since then Blair was always the first person in the station she would go to when she needed help with any of her various errands, gradually the pair started doing things outside of work. Never before has Mitzi met anyone that was as smart as her that she could idiot things with.

On weekends Mitzi was most likely to be found at the Ice Lounge with either August or Blair, this weekend was no exception. An intense drinking game evolved into a dance competition between Mitzi and August, nothing that out of the ordinary. The only real difference was the drinking, be it juice or nectar even if she only had a small amount Mitzi always ended up a giggling, stumbling mess. Sputtering nonsense until she fell asleep. August knew of this and always kept a close eye on her when she drank to make sure she didn’t get hurt.

Her eyes met his while he watched her closely as she danced, the wicked grin forming on her face let him know she was plotting.

“Aaaaugust.” She slurred out. “I have an idea.” Her grin widened. August felt his chest tighten, the last time she had an idea in this state he had spent nearly an hour and a half trying to get her unstuck from a dumpster.

“Is it as bad as las-.”

He was cut off when Mitzi pulled him forward into a clumsy kiss, she pulled away soon after giggling like a maniac. He blushed furiously and looked down at the floor. “Time.” He mumbled the end of his sentence lamely, only encouraging Mitzi to laugh harder and fall over. “Lets get you home before you get hurt. Come on, get up.”

Walking through the cool summer night with Mitzi on his back seeing as how she refused to walk on her own, August let his mind wander to that nights events. He knew of his own feeling for the girl on his back, how many nights had he spent writing songs about her, or wondered if she was alright living all alone. Had it just been meaningful to her, or just a joke to get a reaction from him?

“August.” A sleepy voice spoke from on his back.

“Hmm?” He hummed.

“I love you.”

He nearly dropped her on the sidewalk.
