I stay over at Trent's house that night. He talks to me about what has happened while I was in shutdown mode, but this soon ends because nothing did really happen. We sat there for a while, in an awkward silence, before someone knocked on the door.
"Come in," he replied. The door creaked open slowly, before a small face appeared in the small gap. He smiled at me, before opening the door fully, walked in and closed the door. He stood there for a couple moments before turning and walking over to Trent and I. We were sitting on the bed, and there was a small gap between us. River took the opportunity for this, and sat there. Pulling his legs up on to the bed.
"Hi, Scarlet," River said, in a quiet voice.
"Hey, River," I replied in a louder voice.
"I heard fatty talking and I thought he was going mad."
"I am definitely not fat young child." Trent said, in a high pitched voice, while pushing out his stomach and rubbing it. I laughed so hard. Trent and River were close as brothers.
"Yeah, now you're just flirting." River quickly jumped off the bed, and ran out the door before Trent had even really heard what he had said. He jumped up and ran after him. To this I hesitantly followed at a walking pace, and crossing my fingers that I wouldn't get caught in the middle, like usual. This, obviously, was a normal time. As soon as I had stepped out into the hall, I was picked up and thrown over Trent's shoulder. He took me over to the stairs, and put my head over the edge.
"Put me down!" I yelled, then I realised, putting me down 'now' meant dropping me over the edge, and most likely to a tragic injury. "New thought. Put me back over the railing, then put me down." He laughed, and yelled to his brother then.
"Surrender now, or she goes down!" I heard a loud crash. This must have come from River, dropping whatever thing he was going to use to 'defeat' Trent.
"I surrender! I surrender." He yelled back, then another bang, from him dropping to his knees in defeat. Trent swiftly flicked me back over and playfully shoved me towards River. I ran over to him, and kissed his forehead, poking my tongue at Trent.
"You jelly." I yelled at him, and laughed.
"Ha, ha, ha, I'm the most jealous person in the world. I then felt a circular object being put to my temple. I froze, and noticed it was River, pointing his plastic gun at me. I put my hands up, and looked at Trent, who laughed.
"Go ahead. You don't have the guts." He smiled over at his brother, who moved the gun, before pretending to put a bullet into the barrel, and showing Trent that the gun was loaded. He quickly put the gun back. Then a shadow came and pushed me out of the way of the fake gun, just as River pulled the trigger, and the gun made a loud 'bang'. I had been knocked to the ground and my 'saviour' stood facing the two boys.
"She's mine now lads," said the voice of, Lockie. I was basically the only one not agreeing to be apart of this. Lockie then came around and held up my chin, putting a fake knife under it. Pretending he was about to slit my throat. I was being threatened by everyone, it was actually quite funny. I laughed, and felt the knife being pulled away. This time Leon. I crossed my fingers that he would be my saviour
"o, lets work together. We shall torture the little lady, and steal her belongings." I laughed loudly now.
"Can I not be the toy," I half choked on my words, because I was laughing so much.
"Yeah, I mean, you guys are all flirting. It's revolting," laughed a girl behind me. I couldn't see who it was, but I had a small idea that it was Jess. It most likely wasn't Trent's mum, Lily.
"Don't take all the fun away," was all that was spoken, no name or anything.
"Yeah, Jess is the biggest party pooper." Ah, Jess. My saviour, yet, quite embarrassing.
