Dwayne and Rain | Mighty Ducks D3

Chapter 5

I woke up to yelling outside my room at only 8:30, I jumped out of bed and ran into the common room and saw three teenage boys playing monopoly. "I got up for this?" I said as I wrapped my quilt around my body. "Not even going to ask why we are yelling?'' Russ said with a confused look. "I have brothers, this is every Sunday, I'm watching my show" I say as I flopped onto the couch, turning on the tv.

After my show finished I walked past Russ, Luis and Dwayne, still playing monopoly, I went to the kitchen and took a box of pop tarts out of the cabinet and took a packet of two out of the box and placed it back into the cabinet. 

When I walked back into the common room, I saw Russ standing and the monopoly board flipped over onto the floor, Luis standing beside him yelling and Dwayne just sitting in his chair beside them, with a stunned look. I slowly backed away, remembering the last time I intervened when my brothers were playing monopoly, I ended up accidentally getting punched in the face.

As I slowly backed away I made eye contact with Dwayne and he gave me a smile. I smiled back at him as I turned the handle to my room and walked in. I looked over to the two beds and saw Julie still fast asleep. I went over to my bed and laid on my bed remembering that I left my quilt on the couch and sighed in annoyance.

I had only been up for about 2 hours and already had a headache from Russ and Luis yelling all morning, I tried to sleep but could not because they were still yelling. I walked out of my room and into the kitchen, I saw Dwayne in the kitchen shifting through the cabinets. I walked over to him with a tired smile, he looked back to the cabinet and took something out a bottle of Advil, he placed it on the counter, and took two glasses from the cabinet.

He filled them both with water and placed one in my hand taking the bottle of Advil, he took one out and placed the bottle back on the counter. He smiled at me took a sip of the water placing the Advil in his mouth, he walked out of the room and went to his room and closed the door behind him.

my stomach filled with butterflies that quickly went away as I was confused because he didn't act like himself, he must have had a bad headache as well. I took an Advil and a sip of my water, I went into the hallway towards the common room. I took a sip of my drink and walked in and slammed my glass onto the table and they both paused and looked at me with a confused look. "What?" Russ snapped in annoyance, "WHAT? What do you mean? you have been yelling for over 2 f*cking hours, and I have a pounding headache so SHUT THE F*CK UP"

They both looked at me shocked as I walked out of the room and knocked on Dwayne's room that he shared with Kenny, Dwayne opened the door, "Want to go and check out the school a bit?" I said with a slight smile, he nodded and closed the door behind him. 

We walked through the halls with our papers trying to memorize where every class was, we didn't talk much because we both had pounding headaches so we ended up giving up after getting lost a few times, we went outside and found a bench we both sat down and I sighed. "That wasn't the best idea after all I just needed to get away from the yelling, you know." "Yeah" he replied as he placed with his head in his hand.

After a while of us just sitting in silence we decided to go back. We both walked into the common room and it was like nothing happened Luis and Russ were gone and so was the board and all the pieces, me and Dwayne looked at each other. We both had confused looks on our faces I walked over to the couch turning the tv on. Dwayne went to his room and soon after Julie started cooking in the kitchen and Kenny joined me. 

Me and Kenny watched our show for what seemed like hours, everyone seemed to come and go sitting for an episode or two and going to do their own thing, this went on for almost the whole day I felt like the day went by way to fast next thing I knew we were walking to the cafeteria to eat dinner. During dinner I found my eyes wandering over to Dwayne, I couldn't take them off him for more than a minute. After I was finished I went back before everyone else, I walked through the empty halls and kept finding my mind spinning. Spinning about sports, the kids from the pool and that I only had 4 days left until school started but most off all Dwayne.

I opened my door to the common room and turned on the tv and turned my brain off to all the noise and overthinking. They all came back together and everyone decided to watch the movie Happy Gilmore One of my personal favorites. After the movie I stayed up for a bit longer than everyone else and had a snack before again putting my earbuds in and drifting off to sleep.
