Chapter Four:
* *
My alarm awakened me at 7 sharp the next morning, the loud noise echoing through the white walls of my room. I lazily reached over to my nightstand and felt around the surface for my ringing white iPhone. After knocking a few things over, I finally managed to retrieve the phone and shut off the horrible noise. At this point I could no longer go back to bed. I was now fully wide awake.
I made my way to the kitchen, my slippers padding away on the wooden floors of my house. My pink robe wrapped around me as my hair stuck out from all ends, me not willing to brush it. I reached up into the cupboards and grabbed a small plastic bowl, and reached into another cabinet to retrieve a box of cereal.... Well there wasn't any.
I sighed as I made my way to fridge, I guess since I don't have cereal, maybe I might have something laying around that I can whip up before I go to work on this Saturday morning. After opening the white fridge placed in the corner of my kitchen, the cool air hit my face, sending chills down my spine and goosebumps on my arms. But still, nothing to eat. Sigh. I guess it's time to go grocery shopping.
~~
"Hey, Brenna. Where'd you go after the party? You just like... disappeared. You never called or texted me afterwords." Rachel said as we both began to bag costumers grocery items. "I got scared you got kidnapped or something."
I chuckled, "I can assure you I didn't get kidnapped..." I said. I waved at a young lady as she walked off with a grocery cart filled to the top.
"Then where we're you?" She asked.
" I went to the bad across the street." I replied, "I needed a drink after all that ell I went through." It was the truth. I had mixed emotions after Adam had told me what was going on. I was torn, in disbelief even.
"You at the bar?" She seemed surprised, "You never drink err since-"
"Yeah, yeah." I interrupted. "I know." I said with a sigh.
~~
After seven full hours of bagging, standing, and being a little too friendly than I usually am, the work day was finally over.
I sat on my couch, my phone in my hand as I scrolled through all my social media sites. As usual, not much to see.
'Wanna hang out later?' the screen flashed. A text from Liam.
'Niall and I are gonna go to the movies with a couple of friends. Wanna come?'
I quickly tapped away on my phone.
'Sure, send me the deets and I'll see you soon!'
~~
"Hey!" I smiled into Liam's chest, giving him a quick hug before giving one to Niall.
"Hey," he responded. A grin placed soon his face as he shot a look at two girls behind him. One of them had pale white skin with brown wavy hair, hey eyes caramel and lips red. The other had orange hair, her eyes piercing blue.
"Hi, I'm Gabrielle!" the ginger introduced, she leaned for a quick hug.
"And this is is Katherine," Gabrielle motioned to the brunet.
"Please, call me Kathy." She leaned in for a hug as well.
"Hi, I'm Brenna. Brenna Fichter," I smiled.
After brief introductions and minimal talk, we were on our way to the movie theater.
~~
"Oh my gosh, Niall! Why'd you suggest that movie?!" Gabrielle whimpered, wiping a few tears off of her cheeks.
"Well sorry! I didn't know it was going to end that way!" He defended.
"I thought you saw the preview?" Liam said.
"I never said anything like that!" He screamed, all of the girls screaming his name and hiring him playfully on the arm.
"Gosh, now we're all crying, thanks to you..." I muttered.
"Okay, okay. He's sorry, now stop crying, girls. Please?" Liam sing-songed.
"Fine," we all whispered.
We made out way to the food court caused to Niall's annoying complaints saying that he was hungry. After grabbing our food, and sitting down at a red picnic table, we began to talk with one another.
"So Brenna. How'd you meet Niall and Liam?" Kathy asked.
"Well, when I was getting my things situated in my dorm at university, I accidentally dropped a few boxes a the were the only ones who came and helped me out. So, even since then we've been friends. The two girls awed as the boys rolled their eyes.
"Do Kathy. I have a question for you." I started, "So when all of you guys were little, did they act the sa-" I froze. "Oh my gosh," I whispered. His eyes landing on me.
"What?" The others asked? Looking in different directions trying to see what I was looking at.
"It's him..."
