Chapter 6: Ode to Laughter

ALEXANDER'S POV

I was forcefully being lead into a shady room in a shady unknown building by one of those shady strangers that shadily barged me out of my facility. Well, house, I don't really live in a facility. I just like the word facility. Facility.

The Stranger impatiently shoved me through the door and I desperately griped onto the doorframe. I can feel that breakdown energy being refilled little by little.

"Hell little boy. Get in!" He yelled. He leaned on me and violently pushed and shoved and flicked my fingers trying to get me in. I held on for life.

He managed to loosen my grip with his freaking super sharp Wolverine nails. Yes, I know that Wolverine doesn't have super sharp nails, it's something else but you get what I'm saying.

I winced so hard, my legs scrunched up and I let out a scream. It looked like I had to pee really badly. Or like I just pissed myself, but not with piss. It looked like I pissed lava or something because I'm pretty sure pissing yourself doesn't hurt.

The Stranger eventually got a grip of both my hands and pushed me into the room and quickly lock the door behind me.

I was panicking. Dude, I'm alone in a room with a girl! A girl! "Fuck." I whispered under my breath. "Uh.." OH NO. I didn't mean to say it out loud way to go Alex. Ok ok chillax.

"Uh no that wasn't for yfj you hahsh.." I muttered. The girl smiled at me. Her hair is up to her shoulders and it's really fluffy and her bangs are slightly lighter than the rest of her hair. They're above her eyebrows but it fits her and her face is nice and plump and cute.

But she also looks really worn out. Her eyes are as puffy as her hair and her bags are almost the color of her hair. She looked pale too, but not a healthy kind of pale. I probably look about the same.

She has on this black oversized hoodie that looks really comfortable and some gray, baggy pants. I want the sweater...She doesn't have shoes on. I don't either but at least she has socks on, I don't and it's bothering me. I haven't moved from near the door and I don't plan to either. Maybe if I keep thinking to myself she'll fall asleep or something?

My feet were starting to hurt so I brushed my back against the door and leaned against it, down to the ground. I was now just noticing the room. It's an ordinary bedroom, much like mine, except the ceilings are way higher. There are also a lot of cameras around.

I wrapped my arms around my legs and tucked my head in. What the hell is this.

"Hey.." The girl said. I didn't bother to look up at her. "I'm Leeci." she said. Normally, introducing yourself means you want to talk.
I wasn't going to reply though. If I did I would stutter on all my words and she would think I'm weird and stuff. I can't risk that.

Either way I don't feel like talking, I just want to sleep and game man, with all my friends. But nope I'm here now, I could hear her walking in my direction and I got nervous so I popped my head up to see and put it back down when I saw she was right in front of me.

I would hate for someone to ignore me so I said "Hey." but I didn't take my head out from my arms. Treat others how you want to be treated, y'know? The "Hey" probably didn't even sound like a "Hey" though. It probably sounded like "May-Day."

"Can I sit with you?" She asked with her freaking cute voice and perfect fluency. I nodded. I could hear her shuffling around next to me and then it finally stopped. I assumed she found a comfortable position.

I turned my head to look at her and rested it on my arms again. She stared right back at me and it didn't surprisingly bother me. I kind of liked it actually. I couldn't help but smile.

She smiled back. I noticed that she has dimples and it made me smile more and that made her smile with teeth which are also perfect.

She randomly giggled. It made me uncomfortable, like I did something stupid but her giggles turned into laughing and her laugh was just. It's one of those contagious laughs. So I laughed with her.

I guess my laugh is contagious too because her laughing got more intense. And hilarious. "Did someONE-" my sentence was interrupted with my own laughter. She couldn't control herself. I could see tears forming in her eyes.

"AH!" She laughed uncontrollably. "Did someone put laughing gas in thE AIR!?" I laughed. My stomach started to hurt and I tried to stop laughing. I lifted my head up and readjusted my legs. I sat, with my shins on the floor and held my stomach. My face almost making contact with the floor.

Control yourself please Alexander, your guts can fallout. I replayed that in my head. Stop, stop, stop. I let out a giggle, I was laughing at myself now. I heard Leeci shuffling again and I was kinda worried she had died so I looked out and saw that she was slowly walking to the other side of the room.

Oh thank god, it's over. Her laughing was over along with mine. I just lay on the floor my head turned over in her direction. She was sitting against the wall looking back at me.

"I never got your name." she said. I smiled.

"I'm Alexander."
