Two Pieces

Two Pieces- Chapter 3

~Anthony POV~

I told Callie about my dad and my mom, and my way of punching the wall when I get frustrated. Also the way the kids make fun of me, and made me feel like a nobody.

She said the most comforting words you could ever say to someone like me, "I feel the same,"

She smiled at me , then I hugged her, without her expecting it. The embrace gave me a feeling in my stomach. The same feeling I got when I thought of her but stronger.

I wondered if she felt the same, but before I could think anymore Callie pulled away and started talking.

"We both have the same problems, I get made fun of on a daily bases because my mom is a whore. She is married to my dad, but sleeps with another man every night. I want to say something but I can't find the courage, and my life just all together sucks,"

I patted her leg as I comforted her,"I'm sorry Callie, but I think its best you say something to someone. Your mom first, ask her to change her ways. If she doesn't I think it would be best to tell your dad. I mean I know I would want to know if my wife was cheating on me.,"

She just shakes her head, I could see in her eyes she was not going too. She was scared.

I tried to change the subject quickly, "Hey Callie, where do you live?"

Her eyebrows rose as her face changed into a questioning look,"Well Anthony, I don't know I could trust you with that information you could be a killer for all I know. I don't think that's your business anyway,"

My face must have looked as hurt as I felt, because she started cracking up.

"I was just kidding! I totally trust you, you like no other guy I met before!" Callie said with a huge smile.

My smile reflected, she had that effect on me.

"Well then were do you live Callie Jo!?" I laughed.

She playfully slapped me and yelled, "Did you just call me Callie Jo!? Don't EVER call me that Again!"

I started cracking up, I couldn't help my self her face when I called her that was priceless. I rolled over in the leaves and just kept laughing. Eventually she laughed too.

After we got done laughing she answered my question, "I live in Cartavern Apartment room 118,"

I smiled at her as we both laid side by side in the leaves.

~Callie's POV~

I woke up in a jolt, it was dusk and I was still in the woods with Anthony, I guess we both fell asleep.I picked the leaves out I my hair with my fingers then slowly stood up.

I dusted the leaves off my clothes and looked down at sleeping Anthony. He looked like a baby when he slept his brown hair was now a mess and his nose was crinkled. I laughed to myself, the. decided to wake him up.

"ANTHONY!" I sang.

I saw him toss and turn in the leaves, then his eyes fluttered open.

"Hey gorgeous!" he said sleepily.

Gosh, why did he have to do that. I felt my cheeks getting red.

"Oh stop it," I replied with a smile.

I helped him up, then picked the leaves off his back.

"Did we really fall asleep?" he laughed.

"Apparently!" I laughed too.

When he laughed his eyes lit up, it was beautiful.

"We should probably get going," he said suddenly.

I was sad when he said it, but I knew it was true.

I shook my head, and we started walking.

I broke the silence, "Anthony, Im not ready to for you to leave, so if you want you can stay in my apartment. My mom probably won't be home like usual, and my little sister won't be a bother. I mean just like a sleepover, we can watch movies all night. Then skip school tomorrow. NOTHING more, like what most boys and girls do. Just like what best friends do. What do you say?"

He stopped in his tracks, smiled and said, "That would be so great Callie,"

I smiled back. I mean I know I just met him but, I feel a connection. He is my best friend.

We made our way out if the woods, and soon as we could see my schools parking lot Anthony screamed,"RACE YAH TO THE CAR!"

He took off, and I followed. I guess he could tell which car was mine because mine was only one in the parking lot. It's just a small little red Chevy.

We sprinted neck and neck until we both rammed into the car approximately at

the same time, but I think I touched it first.

But Anthony thought different apparently, "I beat you!" he said with a smile.

"Yah, right. Good one!" I said in a sarcastic tone.

He leaned against the car and said ," So your saying you, Callie Jo, beat me. The one and only Anthony!"

I ran up and pushed him playfully, "Don't call me that!"

He laughed then said, "Get in, you little brat,"

I laughed with him, it was nice to have him around.
