I Got You (Michael Clifford Fanfiction)

Chapter 3 - Anita's welcome

(This is Anita with Skylar)

Skylar's POV

The song soon changed and knowing who was in my window I started dancing a little better. I slowly made my eyes wander to the window. They left. I stopped and looked out.
"Boo!!"
She jumped out from the side and I fell back and hit my head on a box that was on my bed. "OMG, are you ok", she crawled through the window to me and I started to cry. Don't worry though I did it on purpose, don't get me wrong, half of those tears were for the pain in my head. But I also wanted to make her feel bad. "Anita..." I said it faintly like I was dying but it almost made me laugh. "Anita, I feel so cold" once I said that I did laugh and she looked at me like I hit my head a little too hard and had a concussion. Once she caught on she hit me in the arm and yelled at me for scaring her. "What the hell Skylar, you gave he heart attack!?", no I think she gave me one if its a contest. "You gave me one you little prick", I wanted to call something a little worse but my parents are in the house and my walls are a little thin. Anita moved here a couple weeks ago and she lives on the military base with Mari but they haven't met yet. She moved here from Russia with her mom and baby brother. And live pretty much down the street from Mari. They ride the same bus though so they are a little numb between the ears to not talk to each other.

"What are you doing out here?" She lived about 15 mins from my house so I was so confused as to why she was here giving me concussions. "Well, my mom came down here to meet up with an old friend and I noticed that this was your street." Hold on, she has never been to my house so how does she know my street and even house?! Almost instantly she said "well actually I saw you dancing like an idiot in your room, you should really close your window or weirdos could see you", "wait, you mean like you?" , "shut up!" I knew that My parents would be a little confused and maybe even mad because if she can do it then so can boys. That is how my dad's mind works but oh well. "Alright well I should go back to my mom", I swear this girl can read my mind. "Aright just don't creep on me again or I'll call the cops!" We laughed because we both knew I was kidding. She climbed back out the window and started walking down the street. She turned around one last time so I started dancing like a crazy person, I felt crazy though because the people on the radio were talking and not playing music but she didn't know that. She laughed like I was a mad man...woman...and left. I layer down on my bed, my head still hurt. I grabbed a pillow to rest my head on and then pulled out my phone and played 5SOS songs.

'Good girls are bad girls that haven't been caught!'

I couldn't wait until Mari came over because then we could talk about 5SOS like the idiots that we are. I heard somewhere that they are in town but I knew if they were playing a concert or signing that it would be hard to get in. Me and Mari watch their concerts on YouTube anyway so it's not that different. We watch their stuff and listen to their music so I think that's enough for us though, because Mari is claustrophobic and she would break down instantly from the crowd. Plus I might get upset if I'm shoved a lot and once I'm mad there is no coming back down because I have a short temper.

I looked at the clock again just because I wanted lunch now and I hate waiting. It was 11:15 so o thought that that was a fine time to get ready for some lunch. I picked up the last of my stuff and walked into the kitchen. Mom and Courtney were fighting again. They fight sometimes but I always for get what they are yelling about. I don't like to get involved though so I simply walked back to my room. I could still hear them which sucked because whenever Mari was over they sometimes got into a fight and me and her would have to sit In my room and listen or stare at each other until they were done and my mom would come into my room and apologize.

It got quiet so I started walking back into the kitchen and no one was there so I made myself a sandwich. It had mayonnaise, ham, cheese, lettuce, and bacon bits that I found on the pantry. I will admit that I had a few bacon bits by themselves. Once I was done eating I went to the bathroom and while I was washing my hands I noticed some stuff in my hair. Crap. It was a small amount of blood. I guess Anita didn't realize I hit my head that hard. I know I sure didn't notice. Oh well, my head didn't hurt anymore anyway. I took a quick shower to wash it out before someone notice. Once I was in my room I goy dressed into a peach colored shirt and some normal jeans. They weren't skinny but they weren't baggy either, just how I like them.

I walked into the living room to see a scrawny little Mari creeping around the kitchen. I slowly creeped over to her, mimicking her goofy stealth like steps, and stood there like manikin. She turned around and jumped once she saw me. She scares easily. "Damn Skylar you scared my!" Of course I did it was my job. "Whatcha doin?" I knew she was trying to sneak food but I wanted her to admit it. "I was trying to find you of course?!" LIAR. "Oh, ok." You could tell she was lying because she messes with her sleeves or her fingers when she gets lots of emotion. I knew this time it was guilt. "So, what's up?" I said it with the best British accent I could. I'm not sure why but I'm weird like that. "Nothin..." She messed with her sleeves when she said that. I let it slide though because she tries so hard not to mess with them when emotions get to her. "Please tell me." I knew that would crack her because she feels bad when she keeps things to herself. "Ok, well... I sort of... Well..", "spit it out!" I shouted at her. I felt bad instantly but I knew she wanted to get it out. "I sort of made a friend?" She didn't seem to confident in her answer but I must have shown the confusion on my face because as she stared at me she looked confused herself. "Why do you look confused?" She said it with the softest voice I almost couldn't hear her, but she knew why I was confused. She was really reclusive. She liked to stay locked away and only let a couple people into her life. I'm glad I was one of them. But the Mari in front of me was not the Mari I knew.

The Mari I knew was a bad ass. She would do everything with me and then act shy and sweet around other people. She would egg and TP my ex's house with me and shout cuss words till the morning came and everything like that. It scared my sometimes though because she knew just how to get away with everything...like a criminal, but I knew she wasn't a criminal. "Your hiding?" She knew she was hiding but then she motioned to my window. I saw Anita there and got confused. Mari was hiding because she saw Anita? She got up and walked to the window! Holy crap she never walks towards a person without knowing them. And that's when it hit me. Anita was her new friend. She let her in and Anita got confused. Mari smiled and introduced me. That is when me and Anita started to die laughing. Mari looked confused and I told her that I already knew Anita and that she was the one I was trying to get her to meet. She started laughing and blushed from embarrassment. We all sat there for a while and talked. She started opening up to Anita more as we sat there which was good because she needed this. "Ok", Anita started, "I should go back to my mom...again." We said goodbye and as soon as she was gone Mari started yelling. I was confused why until I heard it. "She Looks So Perfect is on the radio!!!" She watched 5SOS when they only did covers and once they got famous she was so happy. "I know they played it earlier too!" Once I said that she looked like she was going to pass out. We loved how much that have grown and being on the radio will launch that to the moon and back.

"Ok, it's only 3:45 so how about we ask if we can go to the mall or something.", she looked at me confused, "I thought you said you have no money?" " I don't but walking around the mall is always fun." And with that we were off to the mall.
