Automatic Girlfriend - Chapter 6

Before I left, I made sure to clean her up thoroughly. I couldn’t just leave her bent over like that. It felt like I was being rude. Was that weird though? I didn’t know, but I still made sure to carefully roll her back over. I put the blanket over her head again, but remembering what happened before, I reached out and uncovered her head. Then, after a moment, I grabbed her under her arms and then lifted her back into the sitting position I had first found her in. It was almost like she was lying in my bed, waiting for me to return eagerly.

I turned to leave, but then I turned back and leaned over, giving her a kiss on the lips. “I’ll be back. I’m going to buy you something nice.”

Why was I treating her like a person? I couldn’t help it. She felt so real when I was touching her. As I went to the door, I looked back one more time. Was she smiling? Her eyes looked a bit brighter. It was a brightness that made her look even more beautiful. I closed the door, and then put my head against it. Was I going insane? Maybe she was haunted. She could be a haunted sex doll. That would explain why she was tossed out, right?

Strangely enough, that thought left me more comfort than thinking I was just being crazy. With a sigh, I straightened my clothing and then headed out. The mall was in the opposite direction and about twice the distance as my work. I took my bike once again. The road to the mall was hilly with lots of ups and downs, so it was a bit more difficult than the rather flat drive to work. Thus, I found myself panting and sweaty every time I went up, and then I glided down as I caught my breath.

This was inducive toward maintaining a social appearance, and by the time I had made it to the mall, I had wet stains under my arms and down my collar. I locked up my bike on a nearby bike rack and continued into the mall with the blissful feeling of air conditioning. As soon as I was inside, my eyes went to a nearby smoothie shop. I hadn’t eaten anything today. Danny had bugged me all through my break and then I had driven right home. I didn’t realize it was nearly dinner time and I had yet to eat anything.

Being overheated along with wanting something cheap I could down quickly, some kind of energy smoothie seemed to be a good idea. While lifting my shirt from my skin and cooling off, I walked into the smoothie shop. There was no one else there, so I walked right up to the woman behind the counter, my eyes on the menu board.

“Yeah, um, I’d like a banana strawberry smoothie. Better make it a large.”

“Aaron?”

I looked down in surprise to see a girl with dyed red hair and black tips. She had two short pigtails on either side of her head. She had a stud nose ring and deep red lips. She was rather pretty, but I didn’t recognize her in the slightest.

“O-oh, hey…” My eyes flickered to the nametag on her apron. “Jenna, it’s been a while.”

She bit her puffy lips, smiling slightly. “Since high school.”

I stared at her. She stared at me.

“Um… the drink?”

“Ah! Right!” Her cheeks turned pink and she turned away a moment, before turning back. “What did you say you wanted?”

“A banana, strawberry smoothie,” I repeated.

“Right!” She pointed her finger and shook it, before wiping her hands and looking around like she barely recognized where anything is.

Suddenly, she snapped and then walked to the freezer. My brow furrowed slightly, but it wasn’t because of her seemingly clumsy behavior. Rather, I was trying to remember where she knew me. Her name was Jenna, and I guess we were in high school. Wait, wasn’t there that one girl? It was that fat girl who sat in the back. She used to keep asking me to be partners with her whenever there was an experiment in science. I didn’t have any friends in that particular class, so I formed with her. I remembered because she wouldn’t do any of the dissection stuff and I had to keep taking the lead.

“Jenna… Thompson.” She stiffened for a second at the name I said as she was pulling some fruits out.

“I’m surprised you remembered me. I don’t know if you remember, but I used to be kind of fat.”

“You look… um… good now.” I smiled.

“Thanks…” she responded as she put blueberries into my banana strawberry smoothie.

I decided it wouldn’t be a good idea to distract her more, so I kept quiet. As she was blending, I saw her checking her phone. She finished and poured the drink, putting it on the counter while her eyes were on the phone. She had a slightly upset look on her face.

“Um… shouldn’t I pay for it?”

“What? Oh… on the house.” She responded flippantly and then turned away and started dialing a number.

“Thank you?” I decided to count my blessings.

It wasn’t what I ordered, but since I didn’t have to pay a dime, I took it and sat quietly. I didn’t think we were close enough friends that she’d give me free food, but then again, I wasn’t going to complain. I sipped on the smoothie, which tasted a bit odd given the unknown variety of fruits that went into its makeup. I was hungry though, so I drank it enthusiastically. Meanwhile, the only other sound other than the appliances’ light hums was Jenna speaking on the phone.

“What do you mean, you’re not picking me up?” I heard her say in an angry tone.

I couldn’t hear what the person on the other end of the line was saying, but her expression turned darker.

“You better not be with Stephanie again.” She snapped. “Oh? I’m paranoid? She sent me a text saying she’s fucking you! Yeah, I know she’s a liar, but you haven’t exactly instilled a lot of confidence in that! What? Brett… Hah… look I need a ride home. I’m getting off my shift like now. Why couldn’t you have called me earlier? What am I supposed to do? You want me to walk home? It’s almost dark out! Don’t you even give a shit about your girlfriend? Don’t give me that shit! You didn’t give me the time of day until I got hot… Fuck you too!”

Her voice grew louder as the conversation went along. When it reached the end, she slammed her finger into the phone deliberately, and then put the phone down. A few moments later, her eyes grew slightly teary. I wanted nothing more than to drink my smoothie and flee from this awkward situation. Unfortunately, she had made the smoothie far too thick! It had way too many fruits. Admittedly, it tasted pretty good that way, but the straw wasn’t sufficient to suck something that thick.

“Aaron.” I jumped again as Jenna suddenly called to me.

I glanced over at her and immediately recognized trouble. She had wiped the tears from her eyes, but her dark mascara was slightly blotchy now, and her eyes were still a bit red. However, she was giving me a begging look.

“A-are you alright?” I tried to deflect the situation.

“It’s fine. It’s just my asshole boyfriend. You remember Brett?”

“Brett…” I thought about it and then shook my head.

“He was a quarterback in high school. I had such a big crush on him. I even asked him out sophomore year and he turned me down. When I…” She looked down and blushed. “When I ran into him again last year, he asked me out. I was excited. I worked hard and got what I wanted. Great, right?”

She had a bitter expression on her face implying that it wasn’t so great. After mentioning the quarterback, I did have a very weak impression of him. I was not anywhere near the jock crowd, so I didn’t know him personally. However, I seemed to recall some kind of controversy where he was dating two or three girls at a time. The guys joked he was building a harem or something.

“I’m sorry about that. Good luck.” I responded, standing up to leave.

“Can I get a ride?” She still asked the question shamelessly.

“Eh… it’s not that I don’t want to, it’s just that I came on my bike.”

“Really? A bike?” Her eyes flashed excitedly. “That’s awesome. I don’t mind.”

I coughed, blushing slightly. “No, I mean a bicycle.”

Her smile froze slightly, and then let out a noise that sounded like a laugh but covering her mouth.

“I don’t have a car because I’m saving up.” I frowned.

“S-sorry, I didn’t mean to laugh.” She smiled, looking kind of cute. “It wasn’t at you. After all, I don’t have a ride either. It was just, you kind of reminded me of myself. It may not look it, but I got in shape biking.”

“Really…”

She nodded. “Although, I didn’t bring my bike today, because my stupid boyfriend was supposed to pick me up.”

I nodded, tossing my smoothie away. “I get you…”

“I’m just worried about heading home alone.” She called out as I started to move toward the exit. “Can you please let me ride on the back? Or at least escort me home? You wouldn’t leave a lady to go home all by herself at night, would you?”

“Aren’t you still at work?”

“I can close up now!”

“I actually have some stuff I’m doing first.”

“I’ll join you!” She wouldn’t take no for an answer, it seemed.

She immediately took off her apron and tossed it aside, and then grabbed her purse that had been sitting behind the bar. Lifting a piece of the bar on hinges, she stepped out from her work area and then walked up to me. She put a hand on my chest, pushing me back a few steps out into the mall’s corridor. I looked over her shoulder at the bar that was still a mess. She hadn’t cleaned up anything. I glanced at her.

“Really?”

She smirked and turned around, grabbing the gate over her head and pulling it down while making a loud rolling sound. She bent down until her butt was high in the air right in front of me. She pulled a long string of keychains from her purse and started fiddling with the latch, using a key on her keychain. However, there were about a dozen keychains, so she was struggling to get the key in.

“Yeah, it’s fine.” She responded. “The owner barely gives a crap. He only hired me anyway so he could look at my ass.

“Oh,” I responded helplessly, my eyes instinctively wandering to her butt.

I hadn’t been able to see her figure before with her apron on, but compared to the overweight girl I knew, she was quite attractive. Her shirt was a rock band t-shirt, black, with a heavy metal logo on it. She had somewhat large breasts for her size and a slim waist. As for her butt, bent over in those tight jeans, it was a rather erotic sight.

“You’re looking at my butt, aren’t you?” She asked teasingly.

I let out a cough, immediately turning my head. “N-no!”

I heard a click, and she stood back up. She shot me a smile, giggling as she put her keys back in her purse and straightened up.

“It’s okay… I don’t mind. You can look, but no touching!” She held up her finger and wagged it in my face as she passed me. “Alright, so where are we going?”

It was only at that moment I remembered what I had come here for. I was looking to buy erotic underwear and sex aids to use with my sex doll! What was I going to do?
