Eliza Clark: Earth Bound Angel

Chapter 13: Complicated

I jumped off the roof as my wings extended and flapped. I soared into the air feeling great to feel the air on my face. I smiled as I went higher and higher into the air. Then I closed my wings around me and fell to the ground, but before I hit anything I opened them again and flapped back into the sky like a child. I laughed and giggled at the excitement of being back in the air. I missed this. Then I frowned at my realization of not being able to do this for much longer. I slowly feel back to the house and back into my room. I shut the window and folded my wings back inside. My phone buzzed and I picked it up to see it had turned 11 at night. 'Flynn was a pig.' I got a text from Alex. I smirked and laid in my bed to reply. 'What are you talking about?' I replied. A few seconds later Alex texted back. 'He could keep his eyes off of you.' Alex complained. I rolled my eyes and spotted the ear plugs on the night stand. 'Should I?' I asked myself. After a minute I decided to plug them in and listen to Pandora as songs by Macklemore started to play. Then my phone beeped again as Alex had texted back multiple times. 'And it wasn't that he couldn't keep his off of you.' was the first one. 'It was that he wasn't paying attention to Katie.' was the second one. Hopes sparked for the two as I read the third message. 'And she tried so hard to impress him and talk to him and he couldn't look away from your damn cleavage.' he complained. It took me a second to try and decide what to do next. 'Well as long as Katie likes him we have to just suck it up.' I told him honestly. The song had ended and another one by Macklemore started to play. 'When I was in the third grade, I thought I was gay.' the song rang in my ears. I was confused for a second listening as Alex replied. 'Shouldn't we tell her that he's not good for her?' He asked me. I shrugged my shoulders and texted him back. 'We don't decide what's too bad or too good for Katie. Even though she's our friend we can't make executive decisions for her like that.' I told him. A little bubble appeared in the corner of the screen telling me that Alex was typing. 'Whatever. Goodnight.' He said. I frowned realizing that I had made him mad. Why were humans so complicated? They want to hear your opinion then get mad when its not similar to theirs. I sighed listening even deeper to the song. 'and you can be cured by some treatment and religion playing god, oh no here we go. America the brave, still fears what we don't know. God loves all his children is somehow forgotten, but we paraphrase a book thirty-five thousand years ago. I don't know.' He sang. I smiled and sat my head back. Humans were so ignorant. God couldn't possibly hate all of them. He created them and in reality everybody gets bored with vanilla flavor. Some want chocolate, or strawberry, or all, or none. It doesn't matter your all still somewhat human. 'I might not be the same, but that's not important, not freedom till we're equal, damn right I support it.' I smiled at the one human being that could fully see the worth of people that like the same gender. You're all still flesh, skin, and bones. It doesn't matter who you like, what you're attracted to, or what in the hell you decide to masturbate to. Still a human that makes a mistake just like all the others from what I see. And with that thought I realized how tired I had become. I waited till the some finished then turned off my iPod to go to sleep.

Short chapter. I know. School and stuff has kind of gotten the better of me. But soon all will be well. See you next time Loves. Tom, Out.
