Transparent Nobody (NanoWriMo 2016)

Together or not at all

                The fun sadly didn't last that long. It was gotten colder and the snow was now coming down faster. We head inside to the warmth of the heater that was working.

Diamond and Eric made us hot coco while me and Tara made smores. Jay just watched the video I took by the fire. He seemed to be replying repeatedly. As if he was still in shock. But he had smile on his face that was almost calming. He went to go help the others as Tara finally spoke after a long break of silence.

"So you helped Jay" she asked watching the dancing flames in fireplace for moment. I looked at her for moment and nodded.

'Well he was just really. I don't know. I felt like we should...work together I guess" I mumbled not really sure what to say but sounded right. It was silent again so I guess she was thinking about something.

She was about to say something when the others walked in. I smiled as I got handed my hot coco from Jay who said he owed me one. I just shook my head and handed Diamond a smore before taking sip of drink. My eyes closed I forgot about everything for moment.

"You know at this point in time I have to say, I think you have problem" Eric said carefully sitting down next to me without spilling his drink. We were all sitting by the fire and there was just enough room for all of us. Or knees kind of touched through sense I was sitting cross legged between Tara and him.

"What do you mean" I asked eyes still closed.

"You have addiction to Hot Chocolate" he replied and I open my eyes to look at him. He was grinning now about me. Boys were weird I thought to myself as I took another sip of hot coco.

"Maybe but I'm not going to hot coco rehab its one thing I need during cold days" I shrugged and hold the cup for little bit. It warmed my now not cold fingers.

Eric just laughed at what I said. It was clearly amused. He turned his head to tell Jay something who was sitting next to him. I moved back to lean against the couch not wanting to be that close to the fire. I closed my eyes again to relax. I felt someone sit down next to me well on the couch.

Diamond was covered in blanket and was eating a half-eaten smore. She looked better than before. Her hair was shorter now. She took a knife to it when we couldn't find anything to cut it with. Her eyes even seem to have same light I remember she had before. She smiled at me and I had hope that maybe the darkness. Or whatever you called it wouldn't win.

"I don't think you should go alone" she said after finishing her food. Her voice was quite but serious. She was looking at me, kind of studying me to see my reaction.

"You mean go back....if you saying its not good idea" I started to say but she cut me off.

"Well, Yes. But you can't fight him or her alone. I know it's not good thing to hold something against someone I just want her to explain why she treated.. Why.... I want to know who she is" she rubbed her eyes and rubbed her back.

"Hey... at least we will kick their butt together' I said gently trying to make her laugh. It didn't make her laugh but there was actually a smile.

"Well, you can both take him down I'm just saying you need some strength" Jay grinned at us standing up and I groaned. This was kind of reminding me of a movie/book and I couldn't remember what it was called but the fact that they were acting like this and stuff.

"Okay this is too cheesy but pretty sure we are all with you... I been thinking about it.. Strength in numbers right' Eric asked sitting with us.
