Electrify

Chapter 5

I was flabbergasted. My eyes were scarred. Hell, I was scarred.

I knew coming here was a bad idea. I could feel it deep in my bones. I'm never seeing gray boxers the same again. And my smoothie has been ruined. I was going to enjoy that. It had lemon in it, and that's the most annoying part. No one messes with my lemons.

After the strippers- or whatever- left --not before gray boxer boy gave me a torturing wink-- Terulah had her face stuck in a terrorized expression. Her eyes were wide open, her mouth was agape, and her hands were on her face. As for me, I was glaring at the sight at the far end of the room.

Mateo and Andres handing money to the strippers with Mateo smiling and winking at the girl.

Ew. Gross. Her sticky hands were all over him. I should think wisely of where I'm going to punch him. I don't need stripper juice all over my beautiful fists.

They left and Mateo and Andres looked over at our table. I gave them a really, nasty, deprecating glare. The lights had come back, and everyone was staring at our table now. I slowly turned to the crowd.

"Don't you all have better things to do?" I began, "If not, I have to test some electricity on you all. My zaps seem to be a bit down today." I said calmly, trying to be as composed as possible. Everyone scurried off and turned away quickly.

"You all look quite lovely tonight!!" I called out.

Hey, I've got to be a bit friendly, am I right?

"Hey, Terrie. We're leaving." I said, turning to her. Her eyes were wide open, and she wasn't moving. "Ugh, for Christ's sake!"

I got, up, went over to her side, and carried her over my shoulder. Terulah was quite smallish, it was no big deal.

I walked to the entrance, passed by Mateo; who was smirking at me and also whose facial expression suddenly changed to that of concern and shock when he saw me carrying Terulah, to face Andres who looked really worried and concerned.

"You, I'm not going to talk much, and I'm tired. Now, take the cinnamon roll, carry her, and follow closely behind me. I want to hear no words from you, and I don't want to hear any grunts or grumbles. If I turn back and you're more than 4 steps behind me, I'll take her from you, raise you with my telekinesis, and zap you till you're dead. Am I clear?"

"Crystal." He said, looking like he wanted to shit his pants. He took Terulah. I glanced at Mateo who looked amused.

He doesn't know what's coming to him.

"Aeryn? Why am I over Andres' shoulder, looking at his butt? I've seen enough butts for today." Terulah questioned, not moving.

I turned to Andres.

"Hey, you. Carry her bridal style. Before I incinerate you." I ordered. He did what I said.

Not like he wouldn't because why would you joke with someone who can electrocute you?

I started to walk towards the dorms, Andres following with terulah. Our building was called Haven House. Dumb, stupid name.

Mateo didn't come with, and he's going to be glad he didn't.

Once we got to our corridor, I took terulah from Andres, zapped him, and then went into our room.

"You know I can walk, right?" Terulah said, hitting my butt.

"Shut up."

I put her down, and went to take a bath. She went after me, and we decided to go back to the lounge in our pajamas. Hers was yellow shorts with sunflowers on it, and a matching shirt.
