Untidy Love

Chapter 2

She stared at me. I raised my head smugly.
"Hi, Paul, I missed you."
"I don't know who you are."
"You don't remember me? I'm Dawn!"
I said nothing and walked past her.
"Hey, wait up!" She grabbed me by the arm.
"Let go," I growled, shaking her off.
She trailed me as I walked back home. I said nothing and kept my hands in my pockets.
"Slam that," I told her as she tried to close the screen door. "It's broken.
"Okay." She slammed it so hard the dishes rattled.
"Not like that," I growled under my breath.
Barry looked at me, trying to copy my smug look. "You've got a girlfriend!"
"Shut up."
"Who's this pretty girl?"
"I'm Dawn, and this is Piplup." Dawn said.
"You're gonna have a great time with her. Take her."
"No. I don't need love in my life to mess with me."
"Shame."
Dawn tried to sit next to me on the recliner.
"My spot!" I growled. "Go sit next to him!"
Dawn disappointedly sat on the couch.
I closed my eyes and slouched.
"You know there's a button for that." Barry said in his cheeky way.
"Its a knob, dumbass."
"I'm turning it."
He turned it and I jumped, my eyes shooting open. "What was that for?!"
"Hey, let's get you a little pillow and a nappy blanket." Barry cooed.
"Shut your ass, I'm not sleepy."
"Paul, you're so grumpy."
"Its how I am, you nitwit."
I turned the knob back down, the extra part of the recliner going down. I crossed my legs, putting one hand on my knee.
"What're you trying to do, dry your crotch off?"
"Shut up, dumbass."
Dawn's eyes flashed with amusement as she watched us bicker.
"I'll go get the hair dryer."
"Shut up!"
I jumped up, slamming Barry on the couch out of pure fury.
Barry's eyes flashed.
Mine glittered. "You don't ever say that."
"Huh." Barry said boredly.
"Are you talking to me in that flat tone?"
"Maybe I am, maybe I'm not."
"I can see it in your eyes, liar."
I sat back down in my recliner, avoiding Barry's gaze as it burned into my back.
Dawn snickered. Her Piplup snickered, as well.
"Oh, you idiots don't know when to stop." I stood up and curled into a ball in a corner.
I fell asleep.

I woke up to the sound of spray paint. It was coming from downstairs.
"Barry.. Go see what it is.."
Barry and Dawn weren't there.
"Damn it!" I spat, jumping to my feet. I hurried down the stairs into the cellar.
They were snickering as they spray painted, "Paul Sucks" on the wall in capital white letters.
"Hey!" I shouted. "What're you doing that for?! How would you like it if I spray painted, "Barry's got a crush on Dawn" on the wall in huge florescent letters?!"
They both screamed and whipped around, their eyes tiny black dots. "P-Paul?"
I snatched the paint out of their hands. "Lord, this will never come off."
"I didn't expect it t-to?" Barry's voice got smaller as I glared at him.
Dawn sweatdropped as I glared at her. "Whose idea was this?!"
"B-Barry's.." Dawn stuttered.
I sighed and stormed upstairs, not even bothering to change as I flopped into bed.
Hi, peoples of America and beyond. I don't have any chapter ideas so I might not update for a while. But that idea though, that Barry. Always making trouble.
And Dawn did nothing. Paul yelled at her for nothing!
Love you guys not in a gay way..
