《Cookies & Cuffs》II| "My gay best friend!"
Advertisement
"So..." I stretched, my hands together staring at the man in front of me, "how's prison?"
The man blinked at me, his face blank of any emotions, "kid, what are you doing here? Are you even old enough to be visiting?"
I gasp, offended, "excuse me, I am not a kid and yes for your information I am old enough to be visiting,"
He raises his uneven brow at me, "Right. Why don't you run back to the playground, maybe even get ice cream on the way,"
I don't respond and just stare at him, he sighs, "listen kid, this isn't a place for pretty girls like you-"
I cringe and pray, "don't be creepy please,"
He rolls his eyes, "if you don't want that, you came to the wrong place, you're lucky you got me and not some idiot like Callum,"
I perked up, "oh who's Callum?" I ask, my attention turned towards the door that James just walked out of, he was saying something to someone to another office.
Oh my god! Why is he so damn good looking!
"You listening?" Romeo snapped his fingers in front of my face, staring at me with annoyance, I turn my attention back to him, "Sorry what were you saying, oh yeah Callum who?"
He groans, "his someone you don't want to know, times up, don't come here again," he warns, getting up from his seat while signalling one of the officers to take him.
"Erm bye, I guess," I say after him, only to earn a glare in response. Well, this was nice...
"Hey kitten, finish your visit?" I hear James ask, I snap my head upwards to notice him smiling down at me,
Getting up from my seat, I nod, "yep finished,"
He smiles, "Well I'm about to go on my break, walk you out?" Why does he keep smiling, I think I'm gonna have a heart attack.

I nod, "sure,"
"So, Romero?" He asks, raising a brow at me, he puts his hand into his pocket pulling out an orange, holding it out to me first, I quickly shake my head, "you sure?"
I nod, "yeah, allergies,"
He looks surprised as he puts the orange away, causing me to smile and comment, "you know you can have the orange, I'm not gonna get a reaction from smelling it,"
He shrugs, "I don't wanna put you off, anyways back to the original question, Romero?"
Damn it, I hoped he'd forget,
I shrug, "he's a distance uncle,"
He pulls a confused face, "from your dad's side?"
I quickly shake my head, "no my mums, we discovered recently and since I don't really know anyone from my mum's side, I thought It'd be nice to see who he was," I wasn't exactly lying.
He gives me a sad smile, "And? Are you happy with the result?"
I shrug, "I'm surprised, but at the end of the day he is family," god, I'm crazy!
His lips perk to the side a little as he stares at me, "You're a good person melody," he comments, causing me to blush and look away.
I'm really not
.
.
"Why?!" I ask into the phone, almost yelling
"Sorry ma'am but he left a special message that he refuses to see you anymore," the women kindly says,
I met Romeo twice after that, both times I got to walk out with James, usually making conversation as he walked me out, once I even joined him on his break and we shared a Kit Kat. Love.
But I'm confused about how could Romeo not like me, I even shared my lame jokes with him to lighten the mood.
"What did one lawyer say to the other lawyer?" I asked, hoping he'd take a guess, instead he just stares at me blankly and shrugs, "we are both lawyers," I say while laughing. God, I'm so funny!

You know the best part of that was, James was standing near me, and when I was laughing I also heard another laugh, so I thought I finally cracked Romeo but instead, I had to turn around to find that James had also heard the joke...I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing, we'll see.
I sigh, "Can I book an appointment with someone else?" I question, praying this time I actually get a good person...Remembering again that they're in prison for a reason.
"Erm, sure ma'am you can, I'll just need the detail of the person," I hear the sound of the keyboard typing in the background.
This time I use the same ID number only changing the last few numbers, the women types and speaks again, "Cayden Royce?"
Uhhhh
"Yes that's correct," I nod, I mean the name sounds delicious..."I'd like an appointment for tomorrow?"
We go through the same procedure again, and after a while I finally cut the phone and continue with my day, excited for tomorrow, while also telling myself what a dumb cookie I am.
. . .
I sat down on a corner seat, waiting for this so-called Cayden Royce, then I notice James watching me his face forms a frown and he starts walking towards me,
He stops in front of me and smiles, "Oh hey kitten, you're back, here to see your uncle again?"
Now that I think about it, this might have been a bad idea, what if he thinks I come from a very messed up family. My dads in the army but my uncles in prison for god knows what.
Wow...
"No actually this time-"
My attention gets directed towards the man approaching us while giving me a questionable look. He didn't look that bad, who am I kidding he looked good as cake, and cake was amazing. But sadly I had my eyes on someone else, maybe I can glance at him-no!
"Are you my visitor?" he asks raising one of his Perfect brows, okay his voice is heaven.
"Hello," the guy waves his hand in front of me, his hands-
"Cayden?" James looks at between Cayden and I, raising his brows in question, "you guys know each other?"
"O-oh yeah I am the visitor and yeah his-his my gay best friend!" I randomly blurt, Sorry Cayden! But I also don't want James to think I have someone else.
Cayden looks at me in shock, his gorgeous green eyes, looking a little murderous, but before he could open his mouth, I speak up, "Cayden, please do sit down I have so much to tell,"
James takes this as a hint to leave, "alright, I'll let you guys continue," after smiling at both of us, he walks away.
"Who the fvck are you?" Cayden asks, taking a seat in front of me,
"I am your father," I deepen my voice and answer, I think his literally shooting lasers at me, "Sorry, I'm Melody, you gotta help a girl out and be my wingman, the one before you did a shit job,"
He narrows his eyes and asks, "Romeo?" when I nod my head a ghostly smile appears on his face but before I could make anything of it, it's long gone, "you know most people go to clubs or social gathering to find a date, not a fucking prison,"
I huff, "Well I'm not like most people," my eyes looking around to spot James.
"Yeah, I can tell," I hear the guy mutter.
