Change..

When I get back from my run I get dressed in a blue crop top and a pair of white ripped jeans.

I throw my hair into a ponytail and slip on my white converse.

I glance at myself in the mirror before adding a light make up.

It's time to make a change, I can't live in a rebellious state the rest of my life.

I grab my purse and phone before making my way down the stairs.

"Hey you ready?" Erick asks as I reach the bottom of the stairs.

"Yup." He smiles and leads me to the front door, walking out of the front door and into the cold day.

The cold air slashes at my bare stomach that shows my tattoo.

Once we hop in the car, Erick starts it and peels out of the driveway. "So you look different."

I glance out the window. "Yeah well I decided I can't rebel all my life I have to change at some point and instead save myself from the pain I suffered."

I bite my lip and tap my long baby blue nails on my knee as it bounces nervously.

"Wow, and what made you change your mind?" He asks curiously glancing at me out of the corner of his eye.

"Just a memory." I say vaguely as we pull up into 'Jo's diner'.

"Well I am glad and your brother would be too." I snort and get out of the car.

"If he was here sure, but no he's on some business trip." We meet up in the middle of the street walking together into the diner.

"I'm sorry." He says looking at me as we make our way into the diner.

"Don't be." I reply before looking at the girl who asks us how much tables we need. "Table for two please." I say.

She nods and grabs two menu's and keeps glancing at Erick as we make our way through the tables of people to a table in the corner.

"Thanks." Erick says smiling and winking at the girl as we sit down in the chairs at the table.

She blushes and quickly gets out her notepad.

"What would you like to drink?" She asks. I notice she pushes out her cleavage and bites her lip as she looks at Erick.

I roll my eyes and glance at Erick who is looking down at his menu.

"Can I have a coke please" I say.

The girl jumps seeming to have forgotten me before quickly jotting down what I want on her notepad.

"And what can I get for you?" She purrs putting her hand on Erick's arm.

He looks up at her with a million kilowatt smile.

"What she's having please." The girl pouts and sticks out her cleavage more making sure to bend down on the table to write down on her notepad.

I see Erick glance at her before looking at me and shrugging.

What a fucking arse hole.

"I'm really thirsty." I say to the waitress who is still fawning over Erick like he's a piece of chocolate cake.

She looks at me before scurrying away from the table. Ericks looks at me with a amused expression.

"Anyways there is nothing you can do about it." I pull out my phone signaling that I am mad at him. 

Suddenly I get a phone call. I glance down at my phone before back up at Erick.

"Excuse me I have to take this." I get up and quickly walk to the door of the diner my phone still blaring it's horrible tune.

I step out and swipe the call phone. "Hello?" I respond tentively.

I hear a static before my brother voice fills the phone.

"Look sis I know I already apologized but I am so sorry I am on my way home now." I swallow and bite my lip before responding.

"Look I am sorry too, I know you have to work because we need someway to pay our bills I am just so sad that after everything that happened I had to rebel." i say solemnly.

"i am so sorry" i  look down at my shoes and lean against the brick wall outside of the diner.

"sis, it's fine i am getting on my flight now and i will be there in 24 hours i love you sis"questions flood my head but i ignore them.

"love you too" i hear a beep signaling the end of our conversation. I quickly pull out a cigarette lighting it and taking a big breath inhaling the smoke.

i hear the diner door open and someone come and lean against the wall next to me. He grabs the cigarette from me taking a big breath, before letting it go.

smoke comes out of his mouth, I glance and see Erick, rolling my eyes i take my cigarette out of his hand and put it up to my lip inhaling.

"don't you have a waitress to get to?" i say flicking the ashes off my cigarette and dropping it onto the ground and running my foot over it, effectively putting it out.

"nah she's not my taste." he waves my question off as if it was too ridiculous to even think about.

"you weren't thinking that when your eyes were glued to her chest" I snort and shove my hands in my pockets leaning back against the wall.

"well i am a guy what do you expect?" I roll my eyes. "guy smuy you could at least told her to fuck off." i push off the wall and begin to walk towards his car totally ignoring that we ordered drinks.

"well i can't help it, when a lady with good looks and a good rack displays herself to the world, who am i not to look?" he asks incredulous as if that explanation makes everything justified.

"yeah yeah then why don't i go to a beach and admire a guy with hot abs and a good face, while i was with you?" i ask.

his jaw clenches and jealousy fills his ocean blue eyes. Aha gotcha.

"yeah well, that isn't the same!" he exclaims as we make it to his car. i yank open the door getting into it and huffing. 

"it's as if i were saying a girl has french braids and another has fishtail braids, overall they are the same god damn thing" i point a long fingernail at him. He scowls at me and starts the car before we make our way back to my house.
