the book report

14

I woke up to the sounds of birds.

I could barely see, but I saw that someone had covered me in a blanket and put my bathing suit in my hamper.

I saw a note next to me from Jacob.

'Sorry i couldn't stay longer, my mom called me to go home.
-Jacob'

I sighed and put the note into my drawer.

I got up and put my clothes on, then walked downstairs.

I saw everyone sleeping in the living room, so I guess they stayed the night.

I saw everyone except for Sidney. I walked into the kitchen to see her staring out the window.

"Sidney?" I asked cautiously.

She turned around quickly.

"What's wrong?" I asked, eager to know what was on her mind.

"Nothing, just the fact that I heard you and Jacob fucking each other last night.

I froze. Me and Jacob woke up again and we forgot what happened, so we did it again. That time it was longer. A lot longer

Sidney chuckled.

I gulped.

She cleared her throat.

"This is what I heard.

'oh, Jacob! Jacob!!'

she then made a moany whine.

I slapped her wrist lightly.

"Shut up!" I whisper yelled.

Sidney's soft smile turned into a regular smile, turning into a grin.

Sidney's lips didn't just smile, but her eyes did. I'd never seen her smile before. Usually she had a scowl or glare on her face. She was pretty when she smiled.

We came to a stop when Sasha walked in the kitchen.

"What the fuck are you doing." She asked directly to Sidney.

"I don't know-" she replied with complete confusion.

Sasha shrugged and walked back to the couch, to the other side of Cole, and layed down, kicking him on purpose.

I thought they were cute together.

"Their cute together." I said in a soft voice.

Sidney gave me a look.

"Yeah I guess." She said, shifting the way her body leaned to the side of the kitchen counter.

I looked over at Sidney, but she wasn't looking over at Cole and Sasha on the couch.

She was looking at Harley on the cot next to the couch.

The fading smile quickly returned, but it wasn't a grin. Most of it was in her eyes, but she had a soft smile that could fool any boy into doing whatever she wants him to do.

About 30 minutes later, everyone woke up. We decided to turn on the tv. My parents were the ones last on it, so we turned it on to see a news woman talking.

We all did our own thing, and a few of us actually watched the news. The few of us only being Cole.

But everyone became quiet when we heard a few sentences the news woman said.

'Last night around 11:30, a body was found on Kolo Avenue. The police aren't sure who the first suspect is, but residents are concerned and worried for family's who live down that street.'

everyone gulped uncomfortably.

Sidney shifted in her seat.

"I'm sure it was just a coincidence, guys." Harley said reassuringly. "Some crazy ass just snapped, 1/100 chance of that happening again will be unlikely."

Everyone nodded in agreement, and Harley moved over to Sidney and sat right next to her. But instead of Sidney scooting away or getting up, she stayed exactly where she was.

I shrugged it off as well and continued my conversation with Lola.

But it wasn't a coincidence.
