You were gonna head out to the <span class="mu-s">ORANGE CLIFFS PIER</span>, you reply, earning a flinch from both Jake and Dawn!
“That sounds…” Jake begins cautiously, “<span class="mu-i">fun?</span>”
“Take it easy, you two,” Pepper replies in a placating tone as she leans against you and nuzzles your shoulder, “We don’t plan on <span class="mu-i">swimming</span>... and I’ve got my bodyguard on hand just in case!”
“Just… don’t overdo it, okay, sweetheart?” Asks Dawn with lingering trepidation in her voice. “There’s plenty of other places you can visi-”
“Mom, it’s <span class="mu-i">fine</span>!” Groans Pepper as she subtly nudges you towards the door! “It was my idea, so… so no problem! We’ll probably just get cotton candy and play <span class="mu-i">Mini Golf</span> or something…”
“Alright, alright, I’m backing off…” Dawn sighs with a placating gesture! “Don’t get into <span class="mu-i">too</span> much trouble out there, okay?”
Abandoning your side to give her mom and Jake a quick hug, Pepper smiles at her family members before practically kicking down the front door!
“ALRIGHT LET’S GO ALREADY C’MON!”
Leaving with a polite ‘<span class="mu-i">Have a good one</span>’, you scamper after your runaway date and catch her over by the stairwell like an escaped pomeranian!
“UuUUugh, sorry about that, sandcrab…” Groans Pepper as she leads the way down the stairs, “Nothing more <span class="mu-i">spicy</span> than meeting family, right?”
You respond with a good-natured shrug. Her mom seemed nice… and Jake didn’t threaten any bodily harm or anything, so…
“He better not have!” Snarls the redhead as she jabs an invisible opponent a few times! “I told him if he even <span class="mu-i">tried</span> to ruin anything tonight I’d gnaw on those <span class="mu-s">ANIME GIRL FIGURES</span> he has next to his computer! That got him to behave!”
Take it easy, partner, you reply as you gently place a hand on her denim-covered shoulder, she’s gonna need some of that energy for tonight!
“I <span class="mu-i">know…</span>” The redhead croons as you make your way across the courtyard, “I’ve been… is it bad that I’ve been <span class="mu-i">really</span> looking forward to this?”
Yea, you snort, it’s <span class="mu-i">weird</span>. <span class="mu-i">She’s</span> weird!
