Bad Boys and Good Girls

Chapter 8

After we ate all the brownies, Tess and I headed up to my room and collapsed on my floor.

"You still have our picture when we were in 5th grade." Tess says in a soft voice smiling.

I laugh a little. "I was such a dork back then." I glance at my pin board above my desk with a million photos of memories. I immediately frown when I see a photo tucked behind the others, of a young boy and a young girl hand in hand. Sharing cotton candy at Lagoon. "How did I miss that dreadful piece of shit... " I ask more to my self than Tess. I got up yanked it off of the board. I stormed outside of my room into the kitchen. I hear Tess shouting in the background.

"Violet! He's gone! He won't hurt you anymore. There's no need to be upset about it.

Tears started threating to fall. I grab the matches and head to our backyard to the cockpit. I sit on the stone surrounding it. My hands were shaking so hard it was difficult to open the match box. Warm hand brushed against mine. I look up in tears seeing Tess with a sad face on. She grabbed the match box from me and lit a match. She handed it to me and I grabbed the photo and hovered over the flame. The corner of the photo started turning black and burn. I tossed it into the dark cockpit and watched it burn. I cried seeing my face and his burn to ashes.

Tessa beings me into a hug and rocks me whispering in my ear, "Its okay, he can't touch you now. Shhh.. Calm down sweety. The worst is over." I glance up at her.

"Why do I still feel the pain?" I said with a raspy voice.

"People remember the best time in their lives and the worst. I'm afraid, Ja-..." she paused to rethink her sentence before continuing. "It was HIS fault not yours. He made this whole mess."

I sighed and looked down at the now blackish photo, with the breeze, it flipped over revealing the words, I love you! -Jack.

After my breakdown, my mom thought it would be best if Tess slept over. Since my mother was rarely home to attend me. Ry is living with her room mate in a dorm at her collage 2 hours away. And my dad and my brother never had this issue before and they didn't know how to handle it either. I was glad Tess could sleep over.

I didn't feeling like anything so I opened up my watt pad on my phone a read The bad boy stole my bra by Cherry Cola. It was such a good book I smiled at some cute parts.

When it was 10 o'clock I started to fall asleep. I felt the bed sink for a moment and some movement. Tess and I hugged each other till we were sound asleep.

Morning came and I woke up to a snoring shrek. I laughed to myself. I got up out of bed without waking the beast. I look in the mirror, and stare at myself.

My head went through last night's events. I lifted up my shirt and watched the scar come into focus in the mirror. I sighed and dropped my shirt and went downstairs for food. I found my hidden Doritos. I went back upstairs and sat in my love sac scrolling through Facebook.

30 min later.

"You soon of a bitch!"

I looked up from my phone and saw Tess staring at me with wide eyes. I gave her a 'wut' face. She gestured to my Doritos. I grinned.

"Come and get it." I challenged. She lunged for the bag but I was faster. I grabbed the bag and jumped up and dashed out my door.

"VIOLET HAND THEM OVER NOW! OR BE DEFEATED!!" I hear Tess shout from behind me.

"LET THE GAMES BEGIN!!" Knowing she would hear me. I hid behind the counter in hopes she would check downstairs first.

"WHERE THE HELL YOU GO?!" she spits. She checks around the couch and halts to a stop before entering the kitchen she tip toes listening for anything. I control and slow down my breathing and creep slowly away from her. Now she was starting to circle the counter. I looked for my exit options.

Under the table? No

Backyard? Too long to unlock door...

Downstairs? Nah I will be cornered.

She came closer and closer I had no option. I bolted for the front door, yanked it open and ran my ass down the street. I hear Tess gaining on me. I reach the park and I get tackled football style onto the grass. Knocking the air out of me.

"Shit dude! Here have them!" I throw the bag at her face gasping for air. She smiles in victory. As I regain oxygen, I slowly make distance between us. I secretly got out my phone and hit record. Tess un-crumbles the Dorito bag and looks inside. She pauses with a sad loom on her face. I burst out laughing.

"YOU TRICKED ME!!!" She screamed throwing the bag at me. I laughed my ass off.

"You... thought... there... was.... some... left!" I said in between breaths of laughter.

She looked at me hard. She narrowed her eyes. She was stocking her prey like a tiger watching it's dinner.

I immediately stopped laughing.

Oh crap...

I got up and ran full cheetah/military style back to my house. I locked my door and hid under my blankets.

*phone vibrates*

Tess: you got lucky, I got a call from my mom. I will be back for your butt.

I smiled, but then frowned knowing our fun was over.

I scrolled through Facebook looking a videos. Listened to my music on my thumbprint radio. I got really bored. I wandered the house hoping something would tickle my fancy. But nothing did. So I did what all bored people do...

I took a nap.
