Chapter 10 | Jim

I woke up really early Monday morning. I guess the extra sleep made me sleep less during the night. I was awake before Darry, and that never happens. I didn't have to leave for another 3 and a half hours so I decided to go back to bed. Although, something kept me awake.

I had a bad feeling that something was going to happen today. Something really bad. I did my best to ignore the feeling, but it wouldn't go away.

I didn't realize that I fell asleep until I opened my eyes and Soda bursting my door open. I just pulled the blanket over my head. Soda yanked the blanket off of my head.

"Get up." He said.

"No." I said, pulling the blanket back over my head. Soda pulled it all the way of of me this time.

"Come on, we can't be late!" Soda exclaimed. I was not a morning person, this should be clear by now.

"Soda, how can ya have so much energy in the morning?" I asked, trying to keep my eyes open.

"I dunno." He said. I got up and groggily walked to the kitchen. I was behind Soda.

"I'm tired." I said.

"I know what'll wake ya!" I heard someone exclaim from behind me. I turned around just in time to get a bucket full of cold water in my face and all over me.

"KEITH FUCKING MATHEWS! I AM GOING TO STRANGLE YOU!" I screamed, starting to chase him.

"Two, ya better clean that up!" Darry yelled on his way out the door.

"Darry! Help me!" He yelled.

At this point, I had him under my body weight while he was trying to escape. I didn't let him. Wow, I was pretty strong compared to these guys.

"Let me go!" Two yelled.

"Say uncle." I smirked.

"Uncle! Uncle!" Two yelled. I got off of him, laughing my ass off.

"Damn kid, you're strong." He said, getting up off the floor.

"I know." I said plainly, walking away to get ready. I was fully awake now.

It was a really slow day at the DX, so we were all sitting around. We heard the door ring, so one of us had to go out. We all just looked at each other.

"Ya'll are on break, I'll take care of it, I guess. They both nodded, going out the back door. They were going to get lunch at the Dairy Queen and bring back some food for when I'm on break. They knew I could handle it anyway.

I went to the counter and waited for whoever was in the store to be done. I just wanted to get back to sitting around.

I was playing with my nails until I heard footsteps coming up to the counter. I looked up and froze. I saw Jim. Why did he have to come the ONE time Soda and Steve were gone. I took a deep breath and relaxed myself.

"Hello, Willow. Working in a gas station, I see." He said with a smirk. I took a deep, shaky breath.

"Yeah, um, that'll be ten cents." I said, trying to stay on the professional side.

"I think I have a better idea." He said with a smirk. I tried to back away, but he grabbed me. He dragged me into the storage closet in the back of the store and shut the door. I tried to escape, but he wouldn't let me.

He started to take off his belt and I was freaking out. I knew trying to escape wouldn't do much. I had no plan, but I couldn't just let him do this to me.
