Eleutheromania | The lostboys

Struck dumb

By the time I wake up again from my nap it's 5:00, I hop in the shower and get dressed in a Metallica shirt and some jeans deciding to wear something more modest for my first day at work, which I'm still pretty mad about because why would mom get me a job where she works without even asking me first? She hasn't even mentioned a job to Michael.

I walk downstairs to grab a sandwich to see Sam in the kitchen making a sandwich.

" whatcha doing tonight stelle?" Sam asks

" work, you?" I answer while grabbing something to eat from the fridge.

"Ha,loser have fun with that!" He laughs putting the last piece of bread on his sandwich

I ignore him and walk outside to see no car only mikes bike in the driveway.great I think how am I meant to get to work if mom isn't home!

I quickly turn back around and open the door and yell to Sam who is still in the kitchen " tell mike I'm taking his bike to work!" I then grab mikes keys that are sitting on a table by the door and run out to his bike.

I sit on the leather seat and put the key in the ignition and rev the engine and speed off not worrying about how mike will probably yell at me for taking his bike.
I park the bike in a parking spot and swing my leg over the bike and start walking to the store. I reach out for the door handle only for someone who grab it "hello, I'm max you must be Estelle!" I look up to see a tall man with and friendly smile and glasses holding the door open for me.

" uh ya, hi I'm excited to work for you" I lie shaking his hand he then says " well I'm excited for you to work for me!, I know you've already been shown around and your mom tells me that your a quick learner so I'll let you just work the counter for now"

I nod and walk behind the counter, nod to the other lady working next to me and get to work. " I'll just be around if you need anything, don't be afraid to ask Maria" he says at he pats the counter and walks to the back of the store to stock some movies

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I check the clock it's ten minutes till 9 and the store is absolutely barren there has only been like 10 people the whole night so max sent Maria or whatever her name is home at 8.

I just finished ringing this old lady up when I heard the bell ring, I look up to see one of the men I keep seeing my brother hang out with,We make eye contact for a short amount of time as he walks around the front of the store. My eyes don't leave him as he walks around the children section of the store why does he need a children's movie? Maybe he's trying to kidnap me! But no that wouldn't make sense because how would he kidnap me with a kids movie.

I am so lost in head I don't know he is ready to check out until I hear his heavy leather boots coming closer towards me. I rank my eyes up his body "by accident" to meet his eyes only to notice he is shirtless besides his leather jacket and is around 6 foot with long hair.

" hi, just that?" I ask lazily nodding towards the movie in his hand. " yes" he said, his voice deep.He hands me the movie, and I look at the cover that reads ghostbusters.I then look back up at him raising my eyebrows saying " this for you?" Jokingly " no for my little brother laddie. he's only 9, will this be ok for him?he questions I turn around

" ya, should be fine. Personally I've never seen it but my brothers rave about it,there 14 and 18 and total dorks though...." I trail off, I look back at him "name" I ask needing his name for the sign out sheet (a/n i have know idea how you would rent a movie at blockbuster or anything like it lol don't Judge)

"Dwayne" he answers gazing at Michaels bike parked out front in a daze.I scribble his name down on the paper and grab the 5 he left on the counter to pay with and punch it into the cash register.as I look up to give him back his movie he turns his attention back to me with a brooding stare that I only seemed to notice at that moment. " that your bike?" He asks nodding towards the bike " no my brother Mike's I borrowed it,why what did he do!" I ask wearily.

" nothing I just know him and recognized his bike" he says. Just then the bell rings and I look up only to see the 3 blonds I know to be Dwaynes friends,  supposedly Michaels. Dwayne then grabs the movie as I cast my gaze downwards not really wanting to make eye contact with any of them. " Dwayne" one of the blonds says in a sing song voice as he grips his shoulder.

" princess" he says catching my attention making me lock eyes with him as he gives me a creepy smile while very obviously checking me out. " Paul" a third one with a spiky platinum blond mullet warns the happy go lucky looking man in-front of me. I look at him as he circles the counter and making it back to the front of the store with a smaller guy with long curly hair next to him all while making eye contact with me "I'm David this is Marko and Paul" he nods to himself the guy next to him named Marko and Paul who stood next to Dwayne. By that point they where all standing in-front of me "Stelle" I say nodding at them starting to feel uncomfortable with there staring.
" well we best be going boys" David says looking me over once more before his friends turn around and walk out, Paul winking and Marko nodding towards me.

David stays behind and gets closer toward the front desk all while my eyes never leave his icy cold ones. " don't know if you want to or not but if you want to have some fun or need someone to show you where all the fun is in town dint hesitate to come up to us , we are here mostly every night and would never turn Down a pretty girl if she asked for a ride."

" maybe" I shrug not directly giving him a answer. He smirks at me and walks out leaving me all alone in the store as the smell of cigarette smoke, leather and something metallic fades away leaving me struck dumb with a strange feeling in my body.

That took awhile sorry lol, also sorry if still sucks I'm not the best writer and don't have something planed I'm just winging it. Should be posting more regularly and we will hopefully have more lost boys content in the next couple of chapters.
