Playing with fire

T H I R T E E N - best friends

Octavia Sethrik:

"I'm your mom's best friend." Evelyn said, with a huge smile adhesive on her face.

I looked at her in shock. "What?!" I asked shocked trying to hold in all the shock, witch I didn't succeed with. "You look just like your mom..." she chuckled ignoring that my mind just blew up. Then her eyes found my necklace, her smiled faded. "You have no idea how many times your mom have lost that necklace. She almost turned the hole city to look for it each time." She chuckled at the memories. Then the room was filled with silence.

"Let's eat shall we?" She suddenly asked breaking the silence, and started to walk into what I'm guessing is the dining room. Everyone followed her with their gaze. "What just happened?" Alexa asked and started to follow her mom.

No one answered her because no one knew the answer. Everyone just started to walk with their mind a completely different place. I followed everyone into- yes I knew it. Into the diving room.

It was a huge table in the middle of the room with many chairs around it. It was already many people that was sitting down, I'm guessing it's a mafia dinner. Or what the hell.

Now everyone had sat down except me. I looked around the room to see an empty chair beside Lexa. I took a deep breath in and out and walked over to the empty chair.

"Hey!" Lexa and Alexa said in chorus. "Hey." I smiled shy at them. "Why are you here?" Alexa asked curious as the food started to come into the room. "Well I got kidnapped and ended up here. I worked like a maid, but I was on a mission because I had some information about the club and all that shit. Then I got into a deal with mr. blank face over there, and now I'm a part of the mafia." I answered not looking at them just the plate right in front of me.

I looked over at them to see them looking at me with their mouths open. Then they burst into laughter, I couldn't help myself but giggling a little bit with them. "I know we are going to be best friends!" Lexa said as she and Alexa started to calm down. Alexa wiped away a tear from her eye corner. "Oh, I haven't laughed so hard in a while. And I loved the new nickname to Cal." She paused, "but yes we are going to be best friends." She finished. I smiled at them.

I could feel someone looking at me, I looked around the table to see Caleb looking at me. We locked eyes for a second, but I got pulled out of the trance when a girl in her middle 30's came up behind me with food on a plate. She placed the food in front of me. I locked my lips, I haven't seen so good food in a really long time! Or even food.

"It looks like you haven't seen food in a long time." Lexa giggled. "I haven't." I said honestly not taking my eyes of the food. "I-" before Lexa could say anything else, Caleb stood up and used his fork on the glass to make a 'pling'.

Everyone looked up at him, "let's eat." He said and sat down again. Everyone started to eat as chattering started to fill the room. "Don't bother it's ok." I assured Lexa so she didn't have to say anything. I didn't want anyone to feel any sympathy for me now.

I took a chicken on my plate and stared to eat. I don't bother to take a fork, I just used my hands. "Hungry?" Alexa asked me and laughed as she started to eat some salad with a fork... like a lady.

(I guess I have to be a lady. Smiling and waving constantly obeying-... sorry I just got that song on my head when I wrote the sentence and I ju- YOU KNOW WHAT THIS IS MY BOOK! I can do what I want! So fuck off!)

"Yea." I chuckled.

The hole dinner was actually kinda nice. I talked to the twins the hole time, they are very nice! And I think I ate enough for a lifetime.

"Let's go to your room!" Lexa said witch pulled me out of my thoughts. I looked at her curious. "Well yea. Our things is not up in our rooms yet, so we need to go to yours." She continued. "Yes come on." Alexa said and stood up. "Thanks for the food bro." She said to Caleb.

Lexa stood up right after her and pulled me up by my arm. "We are taking this pretty lady with us." Lexa said smiling at Caleb. Alexa come to the other side of me, they connected our hands together. I gave Caleb an military greeting before I got pulled out of the dining room.

"You show the way." Alexa said smiling wide and let go of me. I chuckled and started to walk up the stairs.

We laughed as we walked up the stairs. Just when we turned the corner we bumped into someone. An annoying sound come, "watch where you are going?!" Yes you guessed it, the whore!

"Ugh it's you." She said in disgust. "Hey wh-" I stopped Lexa from talking. "Aww do the little bitch need a babysitter." She said playfully. I rolled my eyes, "Im going to go easy on you because friends may not be a term you are so good with-" I started before that brat interrupted me.

"How dare you talk to me like that?!" She yelled into my face. I rolled my eyes again and started to walk away. "Yes just go and cry to mom.... oh wait, you can't." She giggled. I clenched my fits, and got ready to hit that plastic face. "I'm right, aren't I?" She giggled.

I lifted my hand to hit her right in the face when I felt a pair of cold hands stop my hand. "Get lost." I heard a husky deep voice say behind me. "Hey Caleb." She said trying to be seductive, she did not success. "Get. Lost." He repeated again demanding. "I will wait in the room." She said playing with her hair.

Caleb sighted and pulled out a gun pointing it at her head. "Get out of my house." He said demanding. She gulped and started to run away. Or what she call running. "Lexa, Alexa go to mom and dad they will show you where you will be sleeping." He said not looking at them. "See you tomorrow O." They said together and then they quickly walked away down the stairs.

Caleb didn't let my hand go one second. And I kinda felt safe- NO NO fuck I don't!

"Did the princess need a prince to save her again?" He asked playfully walked closer to me as I back up. I didn't answer just looked into his eyes and empty soul. "Hm the princess is speechless, that's a first." He smirked. "I'm not speechless." I snapped offended back. My back hit the wall.

"Sure you aren't." He chuckled back as our faces was inches away from each other. "See you at training tomorrow. Exact 10 am, don't be late. I gave you a clock in the room now so you don't have an excuse now. Go to Rose she will show you where the training room is." He said now emotionless and let go of my hand that he held and walked into his room, leaving me shocked in the hallway.

I shacked everything off me and walked into my room to see a clock stand on the desk.

I found the diary and started to write about the dinner and everything that happened. I will just call it a diary ok?! It's to long to say WrItInG bOoK...
