Again

8.

I sat down on the bed. I tried to get mom to let me put the table down into a bed but she insisted on me staying in her bed. I rolled my eyes to myself. She had to run to get papers for something so I was left with Lola. I'm actually the one that picked her out for Mother's Day a couple years ago. I got up and pulled my sweats off to show I was in spandex. I pulled off my hoodie to show I was wearing my workout tank. I didn't bother changing my converse before I grabbed my skate board and the dog leash.
I sent my mom a text before I stepped out into the still summer air. I had changed my glasses and had my sunglasses on.
I set my board down and pushed off. I went around the trailers till my song was interrupted with a text notification. I groaned and opened it.
L- We r having dinner with the cast tonight be back before lunch tho. Xo
E-ok I took Lola so don't worry.
L-alright have fun. Xo

I sighed before carrying on. Don't get me wrong I love spending time with my mom, but she hasn't been home a whole lot and I've kinda learned to take care of myself and I got used to only having affection from Audrey. My mom showed me affection when she was home or with me but it's not the same if you get what I mean.
I noticed Jared and his sister at the pier and made my way to them.
"Hey freaks." I teased stopping behind their bench. Taylor pretended to slug me in the face.
"Hey Em I didn't know Lana brought you along." Jared said side hugging me after his sister did. They scooted over so I sat on the end with Lola who was getting a lot of attention from them.
"Against my will." I mumbled pushing my glasses up.
"What happened now?" Taylor asked.
"Well let's just say that she's doing what my abuela told her to do." Both of their eyes went huge.
"She called your abuela?!" They both asked at the same time.
"Ya lets just say I got my ass chewed by both of them." I rolled my eyes.
"Man remember she was at your house that one time that you hit a base ball and broke the back window?" Jared asked raising his brows in a teasing way.
"My butt hurt forever!" I complained recalling the memory of all the spanks she gave me.
"Or that time you talked back to your mom and she washed your mouth out with soap?" Taylor asked adding to the memories.
"Yes I drank water after and then burped bubbles making her even more mad at me." I chuckled.
After talking with them for a little while I noticed the time.
"I better get back before my mom has a cow." We all did the handshake.
I skated back to the trailer just in time to see a flash of red hair enter. Damn it she made it back before I did!
I opened the door before it closed scaring Bex.
"Aw god it's just Emilee." Bex said grasping her chest. I let Lola go in taking the leash off slowly walking in myself.
"Sorry I'm a little late I was at the pier catching up with Jared and Taylor." I excused myself to put my skateboard between the couch and bench at the table.
"It's alright we brought subway." My mom said placing the bags of sandwiches on the table.
"Thanks." I mumbled sitting down.
"So what do you want to do tonight when I get off work?" The older brunette asked taking bite of her sandwich.
"Sleep." I mumbled savoring the taste of my sandwich. Flat bread, ham, cheese, toasted, olives, lettuce, and mayo. My favorite.
"Come on you don't want to go to the water party down at the docks with me?" Bex asked.
"Water party?" I asked looking between the two. My mom was glaring at her red headed friend.
"No Bex there is going to be alcohol she's not going." I rolled my eyes and slumped down.
"Pero la mamá! Yo estaré con Bex!" I prodded. She shook her head.
"Bex se va a poner la mierda no enfrentó." I groaned.
"But mamí!" She glared my way telling me to shut it.
T: But mom I'll be with Bex!
Bex is going to get shit faced no.
"Don't mean to interrupt but I'm sitting right here and you're talking about me in Spanish." Bex giggled.
"Your gonna get shit faced is what I said." My mom said taking a bite.
"Well I'm not going for the alcohol. I'm going because I want to go." My mom rolled her eyes.
"Fine I won't go. I'm going out again with Lola." I mumbled before getting up and and throwing my trash away.
When I stepped out so did Bex.
"Emilee. Your mom is just looking out for you." She said touching my arm.
"Did she send you to talk to me?" I asked narrowing my eyes. She rolled her eyes and sighed.
"Look I'm going to say this once. She is your mom. She is the reason you're on this earth. She feeds you she does everything for you!" I glared and my grip on my skate board tightened. I didn't say anything but turn and run before jumping on to board with Lola jogging next to me. I plugged in my head phones and called Audrey.
"Hey baby." "I need you." "What's happened?" "I just need you. When do you think you'll be home Thursday?" "My mom said that we are leaving Wednesday night. Do you want me to see if we can spend the night there?" "Yes." Kay just a second." There was movement on the other end. "Mom! Can we stop in Steveston on our way home so I can see Emilee? She's with her mom!" "Sure I need to speak with Lana about a few things!" I sighed.
"You heard. I will be there you can stay at our hotel." "I can't stand her anymore! I can't do this!" "Emilee you promised not to do it." "I don't know if I can keep that promise!" "Don't do it. Your mom will be the one to find you this time not me. Stay strong if you need to call me in the middle of the night." "I'll try." "If it get worse my numbers speed dial." "I know. I love you." "I love you too." I hung up and turned on Pandora. The tears streaming down my face. No I'm not crying because I can't go to a damn party. When I'm angry I cry. It's weird but I do. When I'm pissed off and about to punch someone I don't cry.
I hate looking weak so I dried my tears and pulled my sunglasses down again.
