The Mad House

Grace Peterson

We opened the door and I found my self looking at a girl with long brown curly hair. She had a side part so her hair covered part of her face. She was wearing a black shirt that said "I woke up like this" and ripped jean shorts. Her had posters of all different bands. Nirvana, Green Day, Muse, Panic! At The Disco, and Fall Out Boy. On one side of the room was a desk and a record player. On the other Sid was her bed and to bookcases. One with books, of coarse. The other with all different records and CDs. "Hi," she said. "I'll let you two hang out and get to know each other," Meg said and then left the room. "So your Em?" She asked. "Yeah," I said. "Cool."
"You wanna do something fun later?"
"Depends on what it is," I said with a sly smile. She looked at me. Her eyes lit up. "Just come to my room at 9 pm, ok?"
I nodded and left.

I got my new place to call home around 5:30. Dinner is always at 6 unless you have an activity that makes you be late. Then in your kitchen would be something cold like a salad or something. Oh wait! I forgot to tell you. This place has all different kinds of activities even camps that you can do. So it's like your at your real home just with a bunch of other kids. When school starts up you can even do after school activities. Anyway for dinner we had pizza. Also the people who work here they drop of the food so you just eat in your "house". Or you can eat at that coed house thing. I ate at the house even though Grace and her friends went to the "place" as people here call it. Meg was gonna go but she saw me here and so she stayed. After dinner I went to my room and started watching tv, in my room, they have a TV in every room!

Grace dropped in at 8:39. "Hey," she said. "We are gonna have to go early." I turned of the TV, "Go where?" She laughed at said "You'll see." We climbed out the back window cause if we used a door an alarm would be sent to the office and they would know. Also we aren't allowed out passed 9 pm. We ran towards the Place. I haven't been there yet but I'm pretty sure I would like it better when it's daytime. I was about to go up the steps but I got tackled. "Are you crazy?!?" Grace shout whispered to me. "Follow me." She motioned for me to come. We ran down the hedge until we came to a gate leading to the were the guys stayed. If we opened the door it might wake someone we didn't want to wake so we had to hop it. When we got to the other side the guys had the same neighborhoodish feel to it. Same styled house. She lead me behind the houses until we reached the one and only house with its back light on. She tapped twice on the back door. The window next to the door opened. We climbed in. "Yo, Grace who's this?" Said a guy with a basketball jersey on. He had a backwards hat on. "I thought you were bringing Mary and Jane." He said. "Yeah well they are getting on my nerves. And why do you care so much." She smiled. "Jason and Mitch are upstairs."

The guy looked at me. "Sup. I'm Will." I walked into the light. He smiled. "Come on." We went up stairs and walked into a room. It had video games with a giant flat screen, a couch across from it, and a fridge. "Who's this?" One of the guys asked when we walked in. "This is Em. She's the new girl." Grace answered. "Pepsi?" Will asked me and Grace he was already at the fridge. We nodded and he tossed two to use. "Em this is Mitch," Jake pointed to a guy wearing a blue beanie and a white shirt with jeans. His blond hair kinda covered his eye. He had those black nerdish but cute glasses. "And this is Jason." Jason had brown hair was a little wavy and he had to kept shaking it out of his eye. He was wearing a maroon shirt and jeans.

Grace sat next to Mitch and I sat on the arm rest next to Jason. Jake who I guess is the jock who loves video games sat on the floor and u paused the game they were playing. Call of Duty Age of Something Something. All three of them were cute but I'm not sure if I liked them yet. I kinda wished Meg tagged along. I know me and Grace are more similar but Meg and I talked more then me and Grace. But then Jake finished his level and pulled out 4 more controllers. We all played as a team against the computer and other live people. It was pretty fun. By the time we got tired it was 11 pm. Me and Grace were going downstairs but Mitch pulled her aside and kissed her. And blah blah bleh >_<. Jason stood at the doorway leaning on the frame. He nodded towards me and gave me a sly smile and went back into the room. Grace pulled away from Mitch and went down the stairs. It was kinda funny cause Mitch just stood there in the same position Grace left him. I followed her down the stairs. Out the window. Back to the hedge. Over the gate. Into the window. Up the stairs. And laid down on my bed.
