Behind A Computer Screen

5 Seconds

I sighed as I packed my IPad into Kenzi's bag; after I got dressed in my leggings and grey 1/3 sweater, and my black infinite scarf, me and Kenzi walked over to Kenzi's place. "So...we're doing I Think I'm In Love and How To Love, right?" I asked, unsure of what songs we were doing. Kenzi sent a smile towards me, letting me know that it's pointless to act nervous when I really wasn't.

"I got to get a change of clothes because these smell like a mini-bar and I'm missing tights," Kenzi said with a laugh, she had trouble unlocking the door to her house but she got it open. "I'M HOME!" She yells out, it's not like she's expecting a reply because no cars are in the driveway, and the door was locked.

"I'm going to head up stairs. Wait down here," She says and runs up the stairs to her room. Her family isn't rich, they have enough to live comfortably but this house is passed down from family from family and no one really has it in them to sell it.

The living room was homey, it had beige walls, creme colored sofa's, a fireplace that's never used, and a old style coffee table. Along the fireplace were family pictures. Kenzi and her little brother Josh. Kenzi and her older brother who lives with her father, Keegan. Kenzi and her mom, step-dad, Josh and Josh's sister Tanya. There was an assortment of pictures and I got lost in them.

I was so caught up in looking at the pictures that I didn't hear Kenzi re-approach me. I turned around towards her when she started speaking, looking at her like I had seen a ghost. "Okay...we gotta go. Keegan will be here any minute!" Kenzi said, and I rolled my eyes at her.

Kenzi and Keegan didn't get to know each other until a few years back when Kenzi was in the 8th Grade, and they've been close ever since. Kenzi and Josh now...that's like North and South Korea.

"Yeah, yeah, let's get out of here," I say and we walk towards the door once again. She waits until I'm a little ways down the walk way until she locks the door. She's so...weird when it comes to that. I reach the end of the driveway and Keegan in his - or his dad's Ford Taurus.

"Oh look who it is! Kenzi and her partner in crime," Keegan teases from looking out of the window. "Still avoiding me?" He winks and I roll my eyes at him. One night at the cabin and he's all...weird now.

"Stop torturing my friend Keegan," Kenzi warns, placing her guitar case in the trunk. The slam of the trunk told me to get in the backseat finally and I do. I climb in the back and Kenzi climbs in beside her brother. "You better not have told anyone but your best friend Liam."

"Don't worry sis. You can trust me!" He says defensively. "Not really but you know me, if you told me not to invite anyone but Liam then that's all I'll invite."

I don't know if I believe him, but Kenzi could careless. She quickly turns on her phone for music and hooks it up to the car via bluetooth. She turned on

masterpiece by Jessie J and turned the music up to the point she couldn't hear herself think. Her...way of keeping calm.

Loser.

"You're still going to the cafe right? We promised Kenzi and Avery we'd be there," Elena said, looking at the me, a heart broken girl sitting on her bed, Indian style. Not moving and occasionally blinking. "I know you're made at the fact that no one told you Kenzi and Wyatt's past but deal with it."

"I'm going, just give me a minute to get dressed," I said and got up from sitting on the bed. I went to my dresser and pulled out a burgundy pair of leggings and a white and grey colored 1/3 top. I pull off my grungy Christmas sweater.

I pulled my shirt on over after I had it off and then I pulled off my spandex before putting on my leggings. I pull on a pair of socks before grabbing my brown combat boots. I turn around and look at Elena who's giving me a look of pity.
