I'm really stressed. I stand up from the table littered with overdue bills and, walked over to the coffee pot. 11 at night and I've not even taken my shower yet. I pour a mug of coffee and take a sip. I set the mug down and nervously pull at my hair. I need help.
"If you don't get me that
money in three days...... You'll have to leave"The landlords words repeated in my mind. Well I need a job. Bad. If I don't get that money..... Looks like I'm leaving. I'll have to live with Jason. Uggg I don't wanna live with him. Maybe I can live with Brett. I love Brett. He's definitely my favorite sibling and brother. I need company. I can't stay awake.
I pickup my phone and silently pray Lexi is awake. I click her name and wait. No answer. Great. She's asleep. I go to click Brii's name. It rings on the 3rrd ring someone definitely not Brii picks up.
Brayden's pov
I sat on the couch talking with Mace. My phone suddenly rings. 11:20 and someone's calling me. I don't bother looking at the caller ID and pick it up.
B- Brayden L- Logan
B- Hello?
L- Oh. Uhh can I talk to Brii?
B- Logan? What are you talking about? Brii is out of town, remember?
L- Brayden? What? Why do you have Brii's phone?
B- You must have accidentally clicked my name instead of her's. What's wrong?
L- Oh..... I was..... Uh l-looking for company?......
B- K babe be right over.
Yes! She and I. All alone. Ya---- wait play it cool. People can't know I like Logan. No one. Especially Mace.
I end the call and grab the keys to my truck. Uggg I forgot which keys are mine. Wait. I flip both keys over. I scramble to pickup the one with a silver mark on the back. Not a good idea getting the exact same truck. Mine has a awesome bumper on the front though.
I'm almost out the door until I hear someone clear their throat.
"Going some where?" Dang it! I forgot about Mace.
"Ummm...... Groceries?...." Dang it. It sounded more like a question.
"Ok...... Don't forget Milk....." He raises one eyebrow. And I nod and giddily walk to the truck.
I start up the engine and turn up the radio as I cruise to the highway, tapping my foot to the music.
Exit 209...... 210....... 212......... 215!!
I pull off the highway and make my way to her neighborhood. I drive past houses decorated with Fancy trees and flowers. I finally pull up to her small house and get out.
I walk up the drive to her wooden door.
"Hey Logan."
"Hi Brayden, come on in." She steps away from the door and I walk in, wiping my shoes in the process.
"What ya doing?" I curiously ask looking at the table littered with IRS envelopes.
"Bills."
"Let's get to it!" I pick up an envelope and a calculator and start ringing it up.
