Farm girl and Shy nerd (Misty x Marlton)

Chapter 5: Growing Closer

               Three days have past since the night Marlton and Misty ate together in the body shop, we continue with misty waking up, she had spent the night on the roof with a sleeping bag. "(Yawn) Oh My..." Misty said as she got up came down from the roof and put her cap on. She brushed and picked her teeth in a mirror they found on the supply run. "Guess we'll see what he's up to." Misty said looking out the window of the diner at the bodyshop. "Hehe I think I'm starting to like this guy." Misty said snickering. Misty over the past few days had grown attracted to Marlton, she liked his intelligence, shyness, and kindness. She also really liked getting lost in his eyes. "Maybe I could loosen up a little." she said laughing while unbuttoning a button on her shirt revealing more cleavage. Misty pulled her bra down a little closer to her nipples and giggled. "Let's see if he notices anything." Misty said walking out the diner and towards the body shop. Marlton was working on another contraption from items he scavenged from the supply run. He was trying to keep occupied so he could help them both survive the best he could. "Ugh I'm tired of working on this I need ten minutes to myself to regain thoughts." Marlton said in his head. (Knock) misty was at marltons door. "I'm coming, hold on Misty." Marlton said getting up off the floor where he was working. Marlton opens the door and says "Cmon in misty, you hungry?" "Umm I'm okay for now Marley" Misty said. "Well I'm working on a contraption right now but I'm thinking of taking a break soon." he said sitting back down. "Oh.. One of your little doohickeys" misty said. "It's not a doohickey as you claim it to be, it's a electrical powered device that can incinerate the zombies flesh and hopefully...." Marlton said turning around to see misty was rubbing his shoulder. "What.... why... What are you doing?" Marlton asked. "What?? Damn calm down Marley, I was just being friendly" Misty said. "NO NO NO NO NOO NO NOO ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!" Marlton said shaking his head left to right standing up and waving his hands left to right across each other. "What?!" Misty asked with an angered face. "MARLTON JOHNSON DOES NOT WANT ANY TOUCHING INTERACTION WITH ANOTHER PERSON!" Marlton says stressing out. "Oh for fucks sake Marlton!!" Misty says upset. "There are germs, there are diseases." Marlton said. "EXCUSE ME?! You're saying I've got germs and fucked shit?" Misty asks. "Everyone does!" Marlton said. "I thought I was your friend." Misty says turning the other way with her arms crossed. "You are but Marlton Johnson does not do skin to skin interaction with others" Marlton says. "Well fuck me, God damn I'm sorry for fucking with your bullshit nerd code" misty says rolling her eyes. Marlton then sighs in pain and realizes he upsets misty. "Hey uh look I ..... I just...... Never really....... Have...... Been interacted with that way" Marlton says walking up behind misty. Misty then uncrossed her arms turned around and says "Look whatever ok, you think I'm just some thug trailer trash bitch like all the other people I've known" misty said yelling at Marlton. "No! Misty please I... I uh..." Marlton said while noticing Misty was revealing more cleavage as usual. "Um" Marlton says stumbling. "YOU WHAT?!?" Misty said. Marlton then looks back up at misty and freezes. "ARE YOU LOOKING AT MY TITS!??!?" Misty screamed. Marltons eyes widen, "WHAT?! NO .......... I WASN'T" Marlton said nervously. Misty then punches Marlton right in the face knocking his glasses off and bringing him to the ground. "YOU BASTARD!!" Misty said as she slammed the door on the way out of the body shop. "Ahh.... Oh Merciful lord... That hurt" Marlton said grabbing his lower jaw. "Guess I should leave her alone for a while" Marlton said to himself. "Can't believe I let some smart ass trick me into thinking he liked me." Misty said as she sat down on the steps leading to the side of the diner. She fixes her bra and buttons her shirt back up. She pulls a cigarette and lighter out of her jeans and starts to smoke. "Fuck!" she says in frustration while taking a puff of her cigarette.

              Two hours pass and Marlton decides to find misty and apologize. "God I hope she doesn't hit me again." he says to himself while walking out the body shop. Marlton then notices misty sitting on the steps in the same place smoking. Marlton walks toward misty looks down at her boots and sees at least eight cigarette buds on the steps below her. "Misty" Marlton asks. Misty stares into her lap ignoring Marlton. Marlton tries to look at her but he eyes were hidden by her cap. "You can ignore me if you want but I have to say...... Sorry... Look I'm sorry I was being an ignorant ass and it was the way I was as a kid, the way I grew up, I was ........ AM.... a nerd and this is why I was picked on in school. Will you please forgive me?" Marlton says. Misty raises her head up a little and flicks her cigarette away. "It's my fault Marley." Misty said sighing. "What?" Marlton asks. Marlton then sits next to her on the steps. "How is it your fault?" He asks kindly. "It's me.... I'm just some aggressive bitch... Trailer trash thug.... you heard what I said!" Misty says with a depressed tone in her voice. "No Misty don't you see where both humans, we both have rough pasts, it's not your fault you grew up the way you did, I wouldn't want you in the predicament you were in growing up" Marlton said. " I shouldn't of hit you, roughneck bitch I tell you...." Misty said. "Misty.... How about we both promise to be better people, instead of you being a so called rough neck bitch and me being an ignorant ass we be something better" Marlton said trying to comfort misty. "I can't do it" Misty said. "Well that's why we need to stay friends, to help each other accomplish that." Marlton said smiling. Misty then looked all the way up and stared at Marlton, she was even more attracted to him now than ever before she felt that this was the person she never had and needed in her life. "You are a true friend." Misty said in a sweet low voice with her eyes glued on Marlton. Marlton had an idea that she was attracted to him and was very nervous about what she would do on the step, he then quickly got up from the steps and walked down. Misty was locked onto his eyes and was bewildered when he got up so quickly. "Thanks Marley." Misty said. Marlton turned around lowered his glasses raised an eyebrow and said "We're a team." then walked back to the body shop. Misty heart was fluttering realizing that he mirrored what she said just three days before. As nervous as Marlton was he felt something he never felt around anybody else around misty. "I think she liked me." Marlton said to himself. "But .... I think I may like her to." Marlton said while shivering. "I promised I could change for her, but I don't think I can." he said biting his nails and walking through the front of the body shop. Misty had felt like a new woman like someone really cared about her. "Mm Marley" she said while giggling than getting up to see what he was up to. Marlton immediately went back to work figuring out how to make his contraption work. Misty came through the front door, "Hey uhh Marley" misty asked behind him twirling her ponytail with her finger. "Yes misty" Marlton asked nervously not breaking eye contact with his work. "The farm I grew up on isn't actually very far away, I was staying there before I met up with you, I was wondering if we could maybe stay a night there and I could show you around." Misty said. Marlton was very nervous that this was a way of her trying to get closer to a sexual relationship with him. "Uhhh actually you could go visit, it's probably best if I stay here and work on my contraptions and such..... hahaha" Marlton said nervously. Misty then knew that he was nervous that they they would grow closer, which is exactly what she wanted. "Cmon Marley it's just one night, you just promised to be a better friend and so did I." Misty said sadly. "Uhhh maybe another time." Marlton said quickly. Misty was beginning to get frustrated and thought of a devious plan to make him tag along with her. Misty then turned around and began to sob in her hands. Marlton then quickly turned around and noticed she was "crying" he then got up. "NO NO NO NO Misty don't cry cmon!" Marlton said coming up behind Misty. "Get away!! You fucking lied to me!" Misty said sobbing. Marlton felt very bad that he had made her cry and was accused for lying. Misty then "cried" for another fifteen seconds before Marlton said. "I'll go." Misty then quickly turned around and hugged Marlton. "AHH!" Marlton yelped. "Oh thank you Marlton I knew you wouldn't let me down!" Misty said squeezing him very tight and smiling deviously from her plan working. Marlton was stiff as a board in the hands of Misty, his hands were clenched and far away from misty's body. Misty was enjoying the hug until Marlton yelled out "ok ok STOP PLEASE, TAKE THE TOUCHING INTERACTION SLOW"  Misty then let Marlton go and skipped happily towards the door. "Sorry Marley, will leave first thing tomorrow morning." Misty said happily. "That was way outta line woman!" Marlton said with a high pitched voice and his hand on his chest. "What ya gonna do you know I can kick your ass hehe." Misty said. "Wait what?!" Marlton asked frightened. "Bye Marley" Misty said as she walked out the side door of the body shop. Marlton was extremely nervous on how misty would act tomorrow during the trip to her farm. On the other hand misty was ready to break Marlton out of his shell, which is what she planned to do on the trip.
