The Bad Boys Story

What's Got Your Panties in A Twist

I woke up to the sun streaming in through the window. I ran my hands over my face and glanced at the clock on the wall. 12:00  well looks like I'm not going to school today. I got up and walked to my room and looked around for some fresh clothes. I grabbed my black shirt and some faded blue jeans that were ripped at the knees. I walked into the bathroom and stepped into the warm shower. I washed my body but carefully avoided the bruises on my stomach and shoulders.

I sighed heavily letting the water run through my hair resting my forehead against the wall closing my eyes. Autumn popped up into my mind but I shook my head erasing that image from my mind. I Shut off the water and grabbed my towel before walking out to my room. I put on my black boxers before the doorbell rang. I walked towards the door and opened it.

"What in the hell are you doing here?" I snarled at her. She was openly staring at me but I forgot that I didn't have anything else on but my boxers. I quirked my eyebrow at her and leaned against the entryway.

"I-I-I was just stopping by to give you this um this um thing.." She stuttered flushed. I smirked at her uneasiness. 

"Would you get out with it already." I said to her growing impatient. She was moving things around in her bookbag until she grabbed a black dogtag. I furrowed my eyebrows at her and cocked my head to the side. She handed it to me adjusting the long strap the hung all the way to her hip. I grabbed it with shaky hands and looked at it. It was plain black with nothing written on it.

"What is this for?" I questioned her. She blushed red before stuttering out a response.

"Well my job wanted me to start passing these out so that they can get more people to buy more necklesses but it was kind of dumb but I thought that you might like one since you're all dark and mysterious and scary looking and Oh My God I just said that out loud." She gasped covering her mouth and walking back down the steps. I shook my head amused at her.

"Hey wait." I called to her. She turned around and looked up at me.

"Where do you work?"

"Oh Um I work at Topics." She called up to me. I nodded my head and went back inside and locked the door. I placed the neckless on the table and went to put on the rest of the clothes. I think I'll go visit mom before I head over to Harry's. I walked down to the bus stop and waited. The bus pulled up and I hopped on it laying my head against the cool glass. I haven't seen my mom in over a week. 

I can't help it it's hard to watch someone you love slowly and painfully die. She's my mom I've loved her since birth and just to see her in so much pain it hurts. It really does. I open my eyes and pull the string as the hospital came into view and I stood up. A group of girls eyed me like candy at a candy store and I nodded and smirked at them before getting off the bus. I watched the bus pull off and I stared up at the hospital in disdain. I walked into the main entrance and got on the elevator pressing the number 3 already knowing my way around the hospital. I've been here way too many times before. I heard the elevator ding and I stepped out onto the empty eerily quiet hallway. 315..316..317..318...319..320 I stopped in front of the closed door and took a deep breath.

She was there watching tv but she looked up when I walked in and her smile grew into a huge grin. I couldn't help but smile back.

"Hey honey come and give your mother a great big old hug." She chocked out in a raspy voice. I can tell she's been in pain she trys to play it off but I can tell. Her thin black hair is already falling off her head and theres so many bald spots that all you can see is little black spotches. I walked over and hugged her awakardly then sat beside her holding her hand tightly in mine.

"Hey what happened to your nose?" She questioned her eyebrows drawing down into a slight frown. I rubbed my nose wincing a little when I felt the sting.
