Run (TOTASC)

Ch.4 We

So, I wake up to a loud thud. I grown, sit up and rub my eyes with my left and and balance with the other one. I squint my eyes from the sunlight that's coming through the window and try to see what caused that noise. Once I had a clear vision, I see Jasmine face flat on the floor.

"Oh God Jasmine are you okay?" I stand up and quickly run towards to help her.

Before I can even pick her up, she starts snoring again. Wow. I smile at her silliness and grab her pillow. I place it under her not so called head but face and I cover her with a blanket. I check the time. 6:07 am. I have 53 minutes to get ready before I go with Blaise. The one and only person I dreamt with about having a nice and beautiful life together. I didn't exactly dream that but I dream that he wasn't a worker but a normal teen. He is probably in his 20's. Ugh!

I walk to the restroom and change into some shorts and a purple dip dye shirt. I wear green nike shoes. I tie my hair in a high ponytail and put lotion on. I never liked how I looked in a ponytail so I basically put on some make up making me look more alive. I put a little eyeliner on and lipgloss. I put a little bit of brown eyeshadow and walk out. I start waking everyone up until I realize Veronica is not here. Dirty!

Once out, I look in the map on the wall to check where the pool is at. Let's go! I walk out and make my way over there. When I got there, my heart skipped a beat when I saw Blaise. He was leaned at an edge of the pool testing the water. He stood up and turned around and stared at me like if he had known I've been standing here. He was wearing black boxing shorts and a black tank top letting his muscle shine brighter than the sun. I noticed I had been staring for too long so I look away feeling my cheeks burn as if fireballs have been thrown at my face. I walk up to him two meters away. He looked at me for another five seconds then he begins speaking.

"Ready?"

"Oh Good Morning to you too my dear friend."

"Boss," He corrects me. "Now, today we'll be..." He always says we like 'what do you even help with?' "cleaning the pools. They are big so we have to be fast." WE? "You will plug this wire into that wall over there and you'll place that tube inside the water. Then, get that racket and quickly get all big trash out of the water before it is sucked by the machine."

"But the trash is already outside and talking." I snap. He just smirks. "And, why don't we get the trash out first and then we plug in the machine? Isn't it dangerous?" I ask smart.

"Jane...." He steps closer. "If you really want to know what danger is.... disobey me."

My middle name. How did he know. Well that's a dumb question. The question was why did he know? The way he said it. It sounded so evil. Like if he cursed it. He said every single word so slow. Like if it was money. Money that he'll never get. Every breath he gave was thrown at my face. It smelled like winter. It was minty, cold. Cold like his worlds. I looked at his eyes, trying to find something. But I didn't know what. He looked at me too. I hated this. I hate the fact that my mom offered me to come here. the fact that I said yes. The fact I got into a fight and the fact that I'm here right now with this.... dude! I hate him....

I suddenly feel something poking my stomach. Thinking the worst, I look down and see a wire. He was handing the wire that I had to plug in the wall. I took it and walked away. I could feel his eyes staring at my back. Not dangerously. not making holes likes other girls say but it's most likely for the same reason that I was looking at his eyes. He was examining me? Checking you out smart one! Oh c'mon!

I plugged it in and walked back looking around but him. He gave me a tube, I took it, knelt down at the edge of the pool and start placing the tube in the water. When I got up, suddenly I feel water on my face. Oh no he didn't! I rubbed my face and looked at him angrily. He was smiling.

"What are you smiling at? You dork!" I yell and step closer to him.

"If you really want to see me mad, keep putting on that shit on your face!" He says loudly.

"What are you talking ab...."

"Make up you idiot!!" He is now angry. You can see his veins popping from his arms and his head getting sweaty.

I was scared of doing something wrong now. Of getting him more angry. I don't like seeing him like this. Nor anyone. I took a step back. He probably took it the wrong way because suddenly his angry face turns into a sorrow and guilty one. My heart gave me that poke that feel like if you're going to have a heart attack. A lump wa built in my throat and I felt my eyes sting. I hate this!

"Finish this then go to your dorm." He told me without looking and walked away, disappearing behind a wall.

I sighed and looked down looking at where he once was standing. What happened? Did I do this? Did he do this? No. Now it's my turn to say it. I didn't do this. He didn't do this. We did this.
