"We need more clients." I said, playing with my yo-yo.
I was in the office with Phoenix, sitting around while he frantically looked for a way to pay this months rent.
"We need more cases. I need more pay. Maybe I should be a prosecutor. I mean, if I was, I'd have a mansion like Miles!" He said.
"The rent would be higher."
"Damn. You're right."
"Maybe I should kill someone so you get more pay." I shrugged.
"I just got in, but I'll get out." Maya said, but she stayed. She walked to Phoenixs side.
"Oh hey, uhm..Aya?" Maya asked.
"Hm?" I turned to her.
"You and uhm...Edgeworth..you guys fell asleep on the couch last night...together.."
Damn! I thought he was gonna move!
"Oh." I gulped.
"Bonjour, copains."
Oh, speak of the devil.
"Wright, I saw Larry exit his car hes probably gonna come in an--"
Miles let out a grunt as he got brutally shoved by who I believe to be Larry.
I helped him regain balance as Larry complained to Phoenix.
"Hmph. He's got some nerve." Miles grumbled.
I chuckled and kissed his cheek when no one was looking.
He smiled and kissed my head.
"Wanna stay for dinner today?" He held my hands.
I smiled and nodded. "Wouldn't hurt to try."
"Try what?" He asked.
"Try getting along with the Karma's."
He nodded.
"I knew it!" Maya suddenly bursted, pointing at me and Miles.
"U-uh..u-uhm...k-knew what?" I scratched my neck nervously.
"You two are together! Its the cutest thing ever!" Maya jumped up and down.
Phoenix's pupils immediatley got small.
Larry peeked an eye at us with his head pointing at us. "Eh?"
"U-uh...w-whered you get that f-from? U-uh! If you dont have evidence, you dont have anything!" I crossed my arms.
"Edgeworth was holding your hands!" Maya said. "Dont deny it!"
Larry got excited. "Edgey finally has a girlfriend!"
"Quit it with the suppositions. She wanted me to check her hands because she had a cut." Miles crossed his arms and turned his head to the side.
"Awwww...I thought I got you two there." Maya frowned.
Larry frowned as well. "Dang, Edgey."
Phoenix sighed of relief.
I did as well.
Good save, Miles.
💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫
His movement was swift and beautiful.
The way he held my hands as he glided against the floor was magnificent.
The way his body moved along to the music was dashing.
"Which one is this?" I asked, looking up at him.
"Suite en La: Les Trois Mains." He said. "My personal favorite."
I chuckled. "You sure do know your classical music."
He nodded.
"Pleck!" A female voice scoffed. "You're not playing the Paquita soundtrack? What a disgrace, Harper."
Miles sighed. "Ignore her."
"Here, this is better." She said, changing the music to a quite obvious tune. The Nutcracker March.
Miles grumbled. "I can never get alone time, can I?"
The Von Karma smirked and did a little curtsey.
"Father wants you in the dining room. He says it's urgent. And don't fret, I'll take care of your pretty pink princess." The Von Karma caressed my chin.
Miles grumbled again and slowly let go of my hands, exiting to the dining room.
Now, I was alone with an absolute bitch.
"What's your name, darling?" She asked, changing the song to Sugarplum Fairy.
"A-Aya...Aya Fey." I stuttered.
"Aha. A daughter of Ms. Misty Fey? What would I have guessed!" She started dancing in a ballet form.
"Y-yeah.." I gulped, sitting on the couch.
I heard yelling again.
"Ugh. I apologize for that. I wish Miles would stop terrorizing my father." She sighed.
Terrorizing?
"Don't you agree? Doesn't he yell at you?" She spun.
"N-not once, ma'am.."
"Call me Franziska. A darling name, yes?"
I nodded fearfully.
Rumors spread she carries a whip. Note to self; do NOT get on her bad side..
"Are you a prosecutor as well, Franziska?" I asked.
"It runs in the family. I dare say, Daddy's the best prosecutor of them all." She smiled.
Miles came back with a sigh and sat next to me.
"Glad to see you in one piece." He joked.
Yeah. I'm glad too.
I smiled and kissed his cheek.
Miles stood up and changed the music. "I apologize, Franziska, but it's my turn."
Franziska growled.
"I hope you twist your ankle." She waved her hand.
That's like saying 'I hope you step on a lego'.
"I hope that whip comes back for you in the future!" Miles smiled.
At least my family is sane. Wait...is contacting spirits sane?
She growled again. "I hope you lose your next case."
Geez, she is not good at comebacks, is she?
"I hope you get abandoned by Von Karma." Miles turned with a smirk.
Franziska gasped, back turned to Miles. "Oh, now you've done it!"
She turned around and she had the ability to hit him if he didn't grab her wrist first.
"Save the ferity, will you?" Miles smirked.
Somebody enjoys being mean.
Franziska yanked her wrist away. "It's just like Daddy says! You're a monster!"
Miles sighed. "He's gonna give up on you eventually."
"Give up on me?! Are you implying he will decease?!"
"Franziska--" I tried to butt in.
DL-6 spoiler ahead!!!!!
She stomped over to Miles and towered him. "I'm glad Daddy killed your father."
Miles eyes contracted in surprise and I could already feel him balling his fist.
"Get out." Miles grumbled.
Franziska stood there, arms crossed. "No." She refused.
"Karma please--" I tried to speak again but Miles stood up angrily and looked at Franziska, his eyes and face full of anger.
"Get. Out." He demanded.
"I hope your little sweethearts next." Franziska smiled and trotted out.
"Miles..." I frowned.
"I'll need some time. Please, if you may, go outside and pick some flowers or something." He said, back turned.
I nodded sadly and stood up, leaving through the front doors.
Damn Von Karmas...
