Check Mate

Chapter two

Above is the image I believe Mariah would look like. I was going for the opposite of what Spring is. Mariah is more silly and optimistic. So this image fits perfectly!

Wherever you go, just always remember
That you got a home for now and forever
And if you get low, just call me whenever
This is my oath to you
Wherever you go, just always remember
You're never alone, we're birds of a feather
And we'll never change, no matter the weather
This is my oath to you

I know I drive you crazy, hmm, sometimes
I know I call you lazy, and that's most times
But you complete me, and that's no lie
You are my tuxedo, and I'm your bow tie
We in the car, sing, sing, singing our song
Rocking the building, tear it down, like we king kong
And in my eyes, you can do, do no wrong
You got a best friend sing, sing along

I sat down the screwdriver admiring my work. I had just finished putting in my new lock. It took a hour just to figure out the instructions, that instructed it should only take approximately ten minutes. Yeah, like any kind of instructions actually made sense.

"Thanks for the help." I looked over to a passed out Mariah who was at the moment sprawled out on my grey couch. My stomach gave a low rumble as a hand landed on my stomach remembering I left this morning without breakfast.

Walking towards the kitchen I grabbed what little bread and peanut butter I had left on my top shelf barely reaching. Turning the toaster oven on as I placed two slices of bread unto the racks, I quickly grabbed a banana and peeled it. Peering inside the glass at the browning of the bread I carefully pulled them out and sat them on my glass plate. Picking up the butter knife I had laid aside I scooped up some peanut butter and lightly spread the smooth creamy butter.

Licking the extra peanut butter off the knife I then began to slice up the banana and put each slice in a four by four patterned on each slice of bread. My eyes looked down hungerly at my masterpiece.

Grabbing my plate and walking towards my couch that Mariah was on, I sat on her as if she did not exist. Enjoying my meal as she gave a stir before she realized what was happening. I gave a slight giggle while munching away.

"Damn woman!" I heard her yell underneath me as she shoved me off not before I took in the last bite of my sandwich quickly. My butt hit the floor as she sat up looking down at me yawning. Her eyes landed on my empty plate then to my overstuffed mouth "watcha eating?"

I gulped down what was in my mouth "food." I answered her. She laughed at my obvious answer while she got up and gave a stretch. Her eyes landed on the finished lock "whoa...you actually could understand those instructions?"

I nodded proudly"only took an hour." She quickly grabbed her phone while her eyes grew big as she looked at her phone. I gave her a questioning look.

"It is already four o'clock?" she pratically asked a question she already knew. "Uhh yeah?" I said as if it was no big thing.

She looked at me before showing me a big toothy smile that only meant she was about to beg for something. I rolled my eyes "what is it now?"

Mariah gave a cheeky grin as she spoke "okay, so you know how that hot ass guy dropped me off last night?" she waited for me to show any signs of interest. I made my eyes perk up just for her to go on.
