Orphans

That Mason Deal

"You're wrong." I said, putting on my gray sweater. "Raini isn't like that. She loves me." "I never said she didn't love you." She scoffed. "I'm telling you how it's gonna go down, Selena." "You don't know anything." I snapped. Anais stared at me. She scoffed. "What, and you do? You don't know crap. You're acting like one of those sum bitches who told me my parents had moved for work." "Shut up, that's not what I meant." I said shaking my head. "Don't tell me to shut up. Don't tell me nothin' because..." She stopped and stared at me. I stayed silent. She stood up and left.

I walked outside. I glanced to the right and saw a friend. Ocean. She ran over. "Hey! What happened while I was gone?" She asked pulling her bleach blonde hair out of her mouth. "Hi. Um.... Stryker got his first tooth." I said. She gasped. "Did he, really??" "Yeah. Yeah, he did." I continued walking. "H-hey. You okay there? You seem.... Tense. And in a hurry. What's eatin' you?" "Um.... Nothing, really. Just... Thinking about Raini." I shrugged. "Yeah, I heard about that." She said. "Yeah....." "You haven't heard from her.... At all?" "Nope." She nodded.

"What's going on with you and Mason? That shit... Fascinates me. How do you do that?" I asked. She blushed. "It's.... I dunno." I stepped back and put my hands on my head. "Is it TRUE?!" I laughed. She stared at me. I scoffed. "No fucking way, man. I know I have interesting friends, but this is like...... A literal FIRST for me. I dunno what to do! This is much more interesting than my sister." I said pointing at her. "Glad I could.... Help, I guess." I stood there, still pointing at her with a blank expression on my face. Then ran inside. "Hey!" She yelled and ran after me. I went inside and locked the doors. She was pounding on them. "Let me in, Selena Grace Fearthe!" She yelled. I looked at her through the glass and stuck my tongue out at her. "You're so IMMATURE!" "Oh, boo-hoo. That really frikin' got me." I said, putting my hands on my heart. I walked away. "ANAIS!!! I need to talk to you!" I yelled. "What, what?! What's wrong?" She yelled, crashing into the wall. "I talked to Ocean." Her eyes widened and she squealed. "Is it true?" She asked, her red hair all over her face. I nodded. She stepped back. "I have to tell my brother and sister! Wait.... Too awkward, no."
