11 Lake

"Thanks for the soup." Megan said from the dining table.

Hellion looked at Suga in the kitchen and then gazed at Megan.

Suga said "I'm glad you like it."

Hellion didn't say anything but kind of wanted to laugh at how akward things were.

Megan asked Hellion "So, are you feeling better? Juan, misses you alot at the job."

Hellion nodded her head "Yeah, I'll be back working by tomorrow."

Suga said "You still look kind of down. Maybe, we'll stay in another day."

Megan questioned him "We?"

He nodded "Yeah, I want to take the day off. I haven't had time off in a long time. It's good to relax the body time to time."

Hellion said "Well, I'll leave you here and I'll go to work."

Suga was surprised at her workaholic words.

Megan noticed and said "Don't take to much time off. I'm sure the employees will miss you like crazy."

Hellion smiled and Suga said "I'll be monitoring Hellion until she feels better."

Megan just looked at Suga and Hellion back and forth. She kind of had a feeling something was different in their vibes and she didn't like it.

"Let's watch a movie!" She shouted to get them to stop staring at eachother like if they were in love.

Suga said "Actually, I'm taking Hellion to go see her parents-"

Hellion cut him off by suggesting "You can drop me off and you can come back."

Megan said with a big smile "Yeah, that's a great idea."

Suga sarcastically smiled and said "Yeah, great idea Hellion."

She wanted to laugh but she held it in. Hellion went up to change and left them alone.

"It's not far." Suga said. "I'll come back really fast."

Megan said "I'll stay and look for a movie."

He nodded and Hellion came downstairs.

"Ready?" He asked.

She nodded and they left together.

"Why did you suggest this to her?" Suga asked.

"Whattttt?" Hellion teased.

Suga said "How would you like it if I set you up on a date with Juan?"

Hellion nodded her head slowly. "I think I would like it."

He looked really offended and didn't say anything afterwards. She liked to tease him and did it well.

"Don't act like you don't like to hang out with her." Hellion said.

"I do like her. She's one of those girls that aren't boring like some. However, I don't want her thinking she's got a chance." He said.

Hellion didn't know how to take in his words.

"I'll pick you up later or you can call me." He informed.

She softly nodded and left.

"How's Mr. Min been treating you?" Mother asked.

"He's been pretty nice and kind." Hellion answered with a soft nod.

"You look kind of ill. Is everything alright?" Her father asked.

Mother then panicked and said "I told you it was a bad idea to stay with him!"

"I'm fine, mom and dad!" Hellion shouted with a calm smile.

Her mother sighed and said "I still worry about you, remember that the doctor said you were still recovering."

Hellion said "There's nothing to recall. If I don't remember things then that means it wasn't important."

They stayed silent.

"Or is there something you guys are hiding?" She asked kind of mad.

"We can't pressure you." Her father answered.

She squinted her eyes and said "Honestly, I'm fine and I would like to spend my day the same way. If you guys don't mind."

Her mother said "Of course. Let's go out to the lake."

It was already late and Suga was impatient at the door.

"What happened? I kept calling you." He asked as Hellion came out of the house.

"Mr. Min we were out in the lake! Please, excuse her." Her father said.

Hellion said "We lost track of time. I thought you would come later. Where's Megan?"

"Megan?" Her mother questioned.

Suga said "She left awhile ago."

Hellion said "I had fun today. Thanks for taking it easy on me."

They said their goodbyes and departed from her parents house.

"Is everything alright?" He asked.

"Yeah, I'm just remembering today. It was pretty calm and nice." She said softly.

"You look like your glowing." He said making her blush.

"I feel really different and I don't know why." She said with a shy smile.

He glanced over at her smile and he seemed very happy that she was feeling different in a good way.

It was pretty quiet in her room that she sat up in her bed and looked around. Everything, was in the same spot as she left her things but she wondered about what happened in between Suga and Megan. Hellion played with her hair as she remembered his smile from the car scene from earlier.

She whispered "I feel like I have experienced this before. What if I-"

Suga knocked on the door and then opened it.

"I got you some tea. I wanted to wait after you shower that way you wouldn't feel to sick." He said.

Hellion smiled and said "Thanks, I was out all day with my parents. I'm feeling good, though."

She received it anyways and sipped a little before talking again.

"We'll go to work tomorrow, right?" She asked with a soft smile.

He nodded and then asked "You're ok with that right?"

"Yeah, I'm feeling much better."

"Ok! Just making sure. I'll leave you then." He left her room.

Hellion got up early before Suga and made cereal.

"Hey, good morning!" She said as she saw him in the kitchen half asleep.

He turned to look at her shocked. "Why are you up to early? Is everything ok?" He asked shocked and very confused.

"I think it's this medicine that I'm drinking. I feel so much energy within me." She smiled at him as she finished her cereal.

"You're done?"

"Yeah!" She went upstairs to change. He looked at his watch and saw they had plenty of time left. Suga rubbed his eyes and stared at his plate.

"What just happened?" He thought.

When they left and headed to the job the atmosphere just felt so much different. Hellion seemed very excited that they were going to work and Suga was happy to see her like that. Maybe Hellion just really needed time off. So, much had happened to her.

"Hellion! Wow, you look so happy today." Juan said.

"I am!" She said.

"Why? What happened? You got a boyfriend?" He asked.

She scrunched her forhead "What?! No."

Juan laughed and said "I was just kidding. Anyways, I'm glad your ok."

Around, midday she was taking a break and sitting on the ground. She turned to look at the box full of grapes and got lost in them. A headache made her come back to reality and she stood up slowly. Hellion blinked her eyes a couple of times before looking around. She saw Suga talking to some of the workers and had his back towards her. Hellion went inside and walked past Suga's office. She went to the restroom and splashed her face with cold water.

"My head is spinning like crazy." Hellion said to herself. "What is wrong with me?"

She closed her eyes and waited for awhile before drying her face. Hellion held her head and took deep breaths.

"I'm fine." She repeatedly told herself.

Around, 20 minutes passed when she got out of the restroom to get some water like if nothing happened. Hellion walked outside and headed back to her spot.

"How could I have forgotten and been so stupid?" She said with a smile plastered across her face.
