Killed By Crew

Chapter 4

Chapter 4

I woke up to the sound of my alarm blaring from my left. After quickly shutting it of and stretching, I hopped out of the bed and bounded down the stairs, straight to the kitchen.  I defiantly needed food. While walking around the island, something caught my on the fridge door. There was a note stuck to the fridge with a letter T magnet.

Morning sweetie, at work till seven tonight, lunch is in the oven.

Love you

Mom xoxo

Huh, so I have the house all to my self. Yes!

Looking over at thee clock on the microwave, I saw that it was just past ten. Wow I had a good sleep. I walked over to the food cupboard and grabbed my favourite cereal, Lucky Charms. I felt in such high spirits today.

After getting a bowl and milk from the fridge, I put it all together and tasted the goodness out of the bowl munching away in silence. While I sat there eating, I thought about what I would do today. I decided to have a shower after breakfast, clean my guns because I didn’t do it last weekend, head to the gym and get a work out, and head back home to get ready for tonight and yeah that’s it. Wow, I’m productive today I thought with amusement.

Just as I was finishing the last of my cereal, I heard the front door rattle and keys jingling. Who the fuck could that be?

I quietly grabbed a big kitchen knife from the draw and made my way to the front door. Adrenaline pumped through my body as I took a deep breath. The slightest bit of alarm and my body and mind went haywire. No one was supposed to be here today except me and I couldn’t let my guard down. Just as the door unlocked, I quickly through the door open with the knife at the ready in front of me for the intruders.

Only to realise that Terrance stood there on the porch with Caleb and a few other guys from school behind him. They all wore surprised and shocked expressions as they took me in. I know I probably looked crazy still dressed in my pyjamas with a knife in my hands, my body stuck in a fighting stance.

I took a deep breathe of relief and hid the knife behind my back, though I don’t know why, they already saw it! Fuck that was close.

‘’What the hell are you doing?’’ Terrance demanded as he took me in. I forced a nervous chuckle and spoke, ‘’I thought someone was breaking in. You were supposed to be at Caleb’s and I was alone in the house.’’

The guys in front of me stared as if I had gone mental, I probably did.

‘’Well we decided to chill here for the day. Our plans changed, and what are you doing with that knife? What were you gonna do, cop me to death?’’ My brother said mockingly, his friends laughing besides Caleb who’s face looked black.

I blushed slightly and put my head down in shame. They couldn’t know that I was actually going to stab the supposed intruder right under the left rib cage.

I heard Terrance sigh and then speak, ‘’Well are you just going to stand there or are you going to move so we can get in?’’ I quickly nodded and then walked back to the kitchen, feeling their eyes on me the whole time. Once I put away the knife back in the draw I grabbed my breakfast bowl and put in the sink then proceeded to wash it. I felt a presence enter the kitchen and I tensed as I felt the person come closer. I knew it wasn’t Terrance since after I left the front door I knew he had gone to the living room, the television blaring through the house.

‘’You know, you should be more careful. If it really was someone trying to break in you could’ve gotten hurt.’’ I heard Caleb’s voice closer than I would have liked, oh who am I kidding, I want him closer. I turned around to face him after putting the bowl in the drying rack.

Caleb stood leaning slightly against the side of the island, staring at me with his blue eyes. He wore dark blue fitted jeans and a plain black t-shirt. ‘’I can take care of myself, thanks.’’ I don’t know why I said it but I did. I didn’t want to show him I was weak, I was tired of people thinking that of me. His stare unnerved me a bit, making me fidget with the hem of my shirt.

Cheers and screams came from the living room, a football game on the TV. Suddenly Caleb stared down at me, from my feet to my legs, my waist to my shoulders, every inch of me. Finally his gaze rested on my eyes and I couldn’t name what I saw in them.

‘’Did you just wake up?’’ A smirk was playing on his lips, his eyes twinkling with amusement as he spoke to me.

‘’Yeah, about twenty minutes before you arrived, why?’’ He smiled at me and gestured to my body with his hand.

‘’Oh nothing, maybe it’s because you’re still in your PJ’s.’’ What the hell was he talking about, I thought as I stared at him with confusion, then I decided to look down and I swear I probably looked like a tomato I was so red. I was still wearing my purple short shorts and top, my feet bare. My slightly tanned legs were on full display, I had never worn shorts to school so no one had seen my legs besides Terrance and my mom which was barely even for them.

‘’Oh shit, damn, yeah I’m gonna go get ready. I have things to do before tonight and its already eleven. ’I said as I looked at him again.

He quickly tensed hearing my plans. ‘’Where are you going tonight?’’ he asked, his voice cold.

I quickly looked anywhere but him, I don’t even know why. ‘’I’m going on a date.’’ I said quietly, not sure if he heard me I repeated it only louder, Caleb then became quickly still, his jaw clenched.

‘’Who with?’’ Gosh is this interrogation day or what?

‘’With Devon, from the gym.’’

‘’You’re going out with that asshole? He’s like thirty!’’ His voice growing loader with each word and I was slowly becoming annoyed with him.

‘’He’s actually twenty and he’s not an asshole.’’ My voice also becoming louder, laced with frustration.

‘’Why are you going out with him? Why would he go out with you anyway? He probably only wants one thing from you I mean look at you!’’ Wow, that was deep blow. After he said that it felt like my heart had just been pierced and it felt worse than getting stabbed in the shoulder. His words literally made me want to cry. Was I that hideous?

‘’Thanks Caleb! Thanks for showing me that pricks like you still exist.’’ I hissed out as I quickly brushed past him but stopped immediately when I noticed my brother standing in the doorway with a blank look on his face. I didn’t even hear him come in.

As I looked at him, his eyes were cold and I couldn’t take it any more, I walked passed him fast and bounded up the stairs, straight to my room.

I shut my door behind me and jumped on my bed, feeling the tears run down my face. What a start to the morning.
