Gotta Get Out

chapter two

It's been about a month since Michael came over, and I've learned that went you sneak out you can't ask you mom, and when your mom finds a boys shirt in your house don't say it's yours. I was texting Michael about meeting me at the house he calls his. It's funny because now I have a couple shirts and shorts there. "KENZIE!"I heard my mom yell. Lately my mom and I have been at each other's throats. "WHAT?" I yelled back. "GET THE FUCKING CLOTHS!" I ran down the stairs and walked past her and rolled my eyes. Then she did something that has never happened before. She grabbed a fist full of hair and pulled me back, i yelped in pain as she pulled me to fast her,"NEVER DO THAT!" She screamed in my face as she threw me on the tile floor. When I hit the floor she kicked my back really had with her work boots on. "Ahhh" I screamed, holy fuck the hurt..what did I do. "AM I CLEAR?!" She bent down and screamed,"Y-yes, ma'am" I said back softly. She grabbed my hair and picked me up then pushed me. "Go!NOW!" She screamed. I nodded and then got the cloths and went back to my room and cried. She's never done that before. What happened? She has always been nice. I texted Michael to come over but walk. Within 10 minutes I heard rocks hitting my window. It was 11 at night so If he knocked on the front door he would just get the cops called on him. I opened my window and stepped on the roof beside my window and went to our TV tower thing. I climbed down and then hugged michael. He got all tense and then hugged back " what happened?" He said with his cute accent. " mom..she kicked me.." I said hick uping. He pushed me back and looked me straight in the eyes " Wanna runaway?" He asked. What? "No! I need a roof over my head.." I said then he said something about the house and how it could be ours. "Okay..I'll think about it" I said and walked to our house I guess. I got there and it was the same as always. The floors were coming down and the trash bins in the same places. I ran up the stairs laughing and when I got to my room with was a crossed the hall from Mike's, i lit a cigarette and I put the door as closed as you can. I opened my bag I had my clothes, well mikes. I took my shirt off and put on a night shirt which was a black justice for all shirt. I didn't change my shorts cuz well they were comfortable. I went into Mike's room to see mike taking his weed out of the closet. I smiled and took a hit of my cigarette. "I'm about earlier.." I said blowing the smoke out of my nose. "Its fine" he said and got the blanket we had in the closet also and put it on his mattress. I laid on the mattress and put my cigarette out on the wall like I always do. I soon fell asleep listening to Mike's heartbeat. "BEEP BEEP BEEP" I heard my phone go off. School..ugh. I sat up to turn it off. I got up and went into my room and put on a different shirt, another Metallica shirt. I went into the bathroom and brushed my teeth and put on my perfume and stuff. I put my converse on and then woke Michael up " Hey mike wake up!" I yelled from the bathroom fixing my make up. I heard him mumble something and then he came into the bathroom and smiled and started getting ready. I went down stairs and waited by the door wen to my phone off. It was a text from my mom. 'If you don't have your shit out by 7 o'clock tonight I'm calling the cops' what? No! I can't get kicked out. "M-mike?" I stuttered on the verge of tears. "Yeah?" I heard him yell as he came down the stairs." Can we go to my house after school? I have to get my shit here by 7" I said as calmly as I could. "Okay..we can" he said kind a confused. I nodded and went through the back door. We walked to 'school'..or at least that's what my mom calls it. It was Luke's house. Or dusty. It was a shed looking place that was trashed but luke,Mike, and I are working on cleaning it. We had pretty clean and it had a bench and a bean bag chair. Luke was already there and was sleeping. He's hungover I think. I poked him " lukey, wake upp" I said in a baby voice. I heard him moan. "Okay fine. No help cleaning here" I said joking. He pushed my face away. I giggled and pushed him back. "So what are we gonna do today?" I asked after opening the two windows because it gets dusty as fuck in here while cleaning. "Nay be just chill for a while then clean for a little?" Mike said, I shook my head " we need to clean here.." I said smiling trying to hide that I'm slowly breaking inside. "Okay, we can sweep" mike said and I nodded. I grabbed the broom and started sweeping. I started coughing and holy fuck. I put my hair in a terrible bun and went back to cleaning. After 2 hours of cleaning we had all the ceiling shit in one corner. I sighed "Michael Gordon Clifford! Help me please" I said trying to sound mad. "Huh?" He said..that asshole was sleeping. I started laughing " Its my smoke break. Your turn to clean" I said lighting a cigarette and sitting down on the bench. Mike stood up and started getting shit from a closet filled with stuff for a house. He pulled out a chunk of carpet and a trash bin. He put them in parts and then reported that for like an hour. My phone went off and it was my mom again. ' makinzie I am being serious, if you don't have you stuff out of my house then I am calling the cops. I know you aren't at school so come over and get it.' Damn she's really determined to get me out. "Hey mike, can you and luke help me get my stuff out of my house..I'm just gonna get small stuff like clothes and stuff and leave my bed and big stuff." I asked, looking over at Michael. He nodded and luke sat up "Yeah sure.." luke said. We left dusty and went to my mom's house in Luke's truck . My mom and dad's car weren't there so I just walked in. I ran upstairs and go a bag. I put my soaps in there, my brush, some of my jewelry, and a lot of my clothes. I gave that bag to Mike and told luke to take my stand and I took my purse with my money stash in it. I also took my picture of my older brother who died about a year ago. We put the stuff in the back of the truck and went to Michael's real house. His mom and dad weren't there so we just hung out in his room. His mom and dad were on a honeymoon thing. So they aren't gonna be here for another week. We hung out for all day and at 7 my mom texted me. I didn't even look at it. It started getting dark around 9 so we went to Mike and I house and put my stuff in my room. I looked at my text from mom. ' you didn't get your bed..come get it please.' What? She really wants me to get my bed. Okay. I texted her that we were going there now. "Hey can we go to my house my mom wants to talk to me." I said and they nodded and we all polled into the truck. We got there and mom was there and looked at me and said" we only did this..because..you aren't even our kid.." Huh? What? "Huh?" I asked, what the hell " when your brother was little I had a miscarriage and I kept seeing mom's with their kids..so I took you from..your mom and dad..I don't even know what your real name is.." She said crying..what the fuck. I shook my head and went upstairs and got my mattress and tried to get it downstairs to Luke's truck. I failed and luke started to help me. I put it in the back of it. And flipped my mom off and got in and slammed the door. We got to our house and I went to the back and got the bed and put it in my room. I laid on my bed and soon Michael came in. " You okay?" He asked, i nodded " just kinda ticked that my mom would lie to me like that.." I said I know she lying to me about the kidnapping thing." Yeah I would be too" he said. "No I know I'm her kid..I look like her and my brother looks like my dad. I don't know how she thought I would believe her." I said and turned over. I felt warm arms wrap me and pull me closer to Michael. "Its gonna be okay " he whispered into my hair. I nodded and slowly fell asleep. "Kenzie!wake up hurry!" I heard Michael saying. I sat up." What?" I asked. "Someone is here" Huh fuck. I hide behind Michael and two guys walked in. One with brown curly hair and hazel eyes and the other looked asian (sorryyyy)." Ashton! Calum!" Michael said smiling and got up and hugged them..or bro hugged them. I shook my head and slowly went to sleep listening to luke,Mike,calum, and ashton talk about the band. What band?
