Broken

Chapter Nineteen

"Stop messing around, we have to finish getting the place ready." Anna yelled at Beth and Maria who were throwing feathers at each other.

"She started it." Beth whined.

"I'm ending it." Her voice was stern; they stopped and finished what they were doing.

I had the playlist ready, Anna's costume had been loosened a little and the house was decorated. My room on the other hand was a complete mess, feathers, popcorn and waste materials were lying on the floor. I really needed to clean it up, I begun by vacuuming and when I was finish with that I took all the waste material and put them in a garbage bag by the times I was done I had two garbage bags filled with things from my room. I took off the sheets and put on fresh ones I had to do laundry today.

I struggled with the bags down the stairs. The girls were in the kitchen preparing lunch I assumed. I opened the door and dragged the bags to the bin outside. At last I finally reached I dropped both bags on the ground and rubbed my arms. I took up one and put in the trash can and I was about to take up the other when a hand caught mine, I looked up it was the Adams Triplets. Why were they here so early?

"Let me help." The on holding my hand said, I couldn't tell them different they weren't in their school appearance.

"All right." I let go of the trash. "Why are you guys here so early?" I asked.

"To help out of course." The one that held my hand said.

"I can't tell you guys different." I admitted.

"That's Ryan, that's Raymond and I'm Ramone." He took my hand in his. I pulled it away it felt a little weird and his hands didn't have that spark I liked.

"Where are your costumes?" I asked.

"In our car." Ramone didn't give them the chance to answer and all he was doing was smiling at me.

Two cars pulled up one in front of Maria's house and one in front of mine very nice cars. The one in front of Maria's opened and Andre stepped out and my heart skipped a beat and butterflies erupted in my stomach. I felt giddy and beyond happy to see him after what happened last night. He looked over my direction and saw the boys around me and his face fell. I really wish they had moved. He retreated inside and slammed the door and I felt my insides break even more.

The car in front of us opened and Mr. Demic came out with Amy in his hands. I didn't know how I was going to explain this. Amy was talking to him about some cartoon and he was listening intently as he nodded passing us. The guys gave me a questioning look and I shrugged them off.

"Why is a teacher from our school here?" Ryan asked.

"It's not my secret to tell." I shrugged them off.

"He just walked in your house." Raymond said looking at the now closed door.

"What kind of secret?" Ryan asked.

"None that you boys need to know." I said coldly.

"All right we are going in to make sure everything is fine." Raymond said he didn't seem like the type that could protect if he wanted to. Ramone held my arm as the others went ahead. What was this about?

"Uhm...I was wondering if maybe you would want to go catch a movie together sometime?" he was asking me out on a date and he was nervous.

"Are you nervous?" I asked with a smirk.

"Yes you're kind of intimidating." He said honestly.

"You're not the first to say that." I smirked at him. He took a deep breath.
