claustrophobic -Ray Hall

Part 3- the winks

The week turned out not as bad as I thought it would be actually, I finally settled into home with dad and I made some new friends here and there. But most of the week I hung out with heather, nat and bishop. They were both friends of heathers and now my friends.

It was now Saturday morning and I had just go for a morning run, returning home sweating like a pig only to be greeted with Ray sitting out on the porch couch. "What do I owe the pleasure mr hall?" I asked condescendingly. He knew I wasn't ok pleased to be seeing him in this state. "Good morning to you too bells." He said in a chirpy voice. It was strange for Ray to be so. You know. Happy. " I was just wondering if you were going to take me up on my offer. You know the party?". Oh yeah that party I actually wasn't going to go but now I have too, because I can't use the excuse of 'oh yeh I forgot' because he has decided to come 'remind' me.

" Right that party yeah I guess I could make a guest appearance just for you." I said as I walked inside with him following me. I walked up to the fridge looking for something to drink. And as I did I looked over at Ray nodding my head towards the fridge to ask if he wanted anything. He answered with a "took your time I'm patched, beer please." I just gave him a look. It was only 10 o'clock in the morning and he already wants beer. But without protesting I threw him one of my dads cold cans, and for myself grabbed a water.

"So later you will be there?" He asked. God he had a one track mind like a dog and a bone. I just strayed past him. "Yeh whatever I will be there as long as you quit asking." And with that he game me the smirk and winked. Leaving through the door he entered through.

Later that evening I could already hear the music from the halls yard but I still had to get ready so with that I hopped into the shower. Making sure it was piping hot and washed myself. As I chambered out of the steamy sticky bathroom I made my way over to my closet searching for a comfy yet sexy outfit. Dress to impress they always say.

I threw on some blue denim short shorts with a blue and cream bandana top only just covering what it need to. I put my hair up into a big clip pulling a could of strands from the clip to look less neat. I slapped of some brown eyeliner, mascara, and tinted lip gloss.

My already dirtied vans tapped the way down the stairs but before I was out the door my father questioned me. "Where do you think your going young lady, and dressed like that?" My face turned a pinkish colour. If all people is my life I would never expect my dad in a million years to question one where I was going and two what I was wearing. But then out of the blue he chuckled to himself. " I'm just kidding kiddo go have fun live your life. But not too much fun"

And with that u walked out the door and within a couple of steps arrived at the bonfire party thing. I'm not really sure what they all call it but there it was.
