The One Word Theory

Stressed Out

 'Seriously?' I try to clarify what I just been said/thought.

'Yes, so just stay here and get better, I bet Hisako is handling this.'  Aali tells me.  I don't want to get better, I need to do something. Hisako shouldn't be doing anything towards Ametsuchi.

'Hisako is NOT handling this so I'm going to.  Just leave me alone if you want me to just stay in bed.' 

'Fine, but you're not going to drive him away from the school in this health.'

'Watch me.'

I limped/crawled to the room and went into the forest.  I saw a little blur of bright blue hair and knowing it was Ares' I tried to run over which looked more like I was walking.  That's when I saw him reading his book and eating a tuna sandwich.

"What are you doing?"  I asked him.  He looked up from his book and looked at me wide eyed.

"You're back!  My friend Aali took you didn't he?  I swear he tries to stop Death himself."

Wait, you two are freaking frien-"

"TONIGHT IS A SPECIAL DANCE AND PARTY TO CELEBRATE THE WINNERS AND TO WELCOME OUR NEW STUDENTS, AALI KINEMAN AND AMETSUCHI ABE!!!!!!"

Hisako was the winner because of the loss of a person on Tabor's team, the tournament was based on how many people on your team or your wins so we sorta go to relax at the party but I'm far from relaxed.  Since when were Ares and Aali friends?  Amet and Aali are students?  

                                                               ***

At our house Hisako was getting ready for the party and I was in some basic attire with Muffins, the only normal person in the house currently.  Ares was in a basic green T-shirt and dress pants while Sadow was in a suit and bow tie.

"You're excited to welcome the new students" Ares said in an annoyed voice.

"Well at least I'm embracing a FRIEND, without Aali Comet would be in a coma right now."  Sadow replied and it was true, I'm in a rough position, I have to be careful about everything so I don't pass out.

"Hey is Hisako almost ready, we're late."  I asked Ares who knocked on her door. 

Hisako busted through the door and almost tackled Ares.  Her hair was in a tight bun with too much hairspray and was wearing a hot pink dress that was extremely puffy.

By the time I was done laughing and getting up from the floor I managed to say, "You look like Princess Boogie of Kingdom Disco, how about you add some MORE sparkles to that dress just to make sure we're embarrassed."

Hisako glared at us all when we're laughing but we didn't care, we had to get to that party.
