Forgetting Cynthia

Taking flight

"This is the clock upon the wall this is the story of us all.this is the first sound of a new born child before he starys to crawl. This is the war thats never won. This is a soldier and his gun this is the mother waiting by the phone just praying for the son. Pictures of you. Pictures of me all upon your wall for the world to see. Confess to me all the lies between us all the lies between you and me."

I woke up to the sun on my face. Birds chirping outside. Warm bed sheets and sunlight streaming onto the bed. But what do i hear?? Freaking call of duty gunshots on loud. Resonating throughout the apartment! "grrrr" i let out. "CYNTHIA!!?" i yell out.

She appears at the door soon with the look of innocence thay was adorable but also couldnt fool a blind deaf kid. Why do i say deaf? Because there is sarcasm dripping off of every syllable out of her mouth. "oh erik what ever could I have done wrong?" she says grinning madly. "freaking jesus.. You mean to tell me that you DID not purposely play call of duty at 9a.m. With the surround system on just to wake me up?" i ask quietly. Her grin drop and she just looks at me with complete seriousness. "sounds like a smart plan, but entirely to obvious. Maybe i just wanted to play call of duty like a boss. And waking you up is just an added bonus?" she said then smiled again. Gosh her smile is brilliant.we were both in our pajamas still but i am sure that our bed heads are professionally worthy. "Your bed head is hilarious." she states chuckling. "Yours actually is an improvement!"i said patting her on the head. "Oh bipolars got some jokes eh!?" she said then took my hand and turned it around to where my back was facing her. "Oooh punky got some moves."i said stepping out of her grasp. "cmon dork lets go eat leftover junk food amd play some videogames!" she suggested. And as i followed her to the living room i couldnt help but wander if that kiss was a dream or reality. We were just so natural with eachother. We ate and played games for hours. I could stay here with her in our own little world. But then when we were in a pillow war, something not fluffy and cloth encased hit me. "I do have to go to school.i have all year round." she said. We dropped our pillows and layed side by side on the vast floor."But how am i supposed to protect you?" i asked being completely serious. " you dont have to keep your promise." she stated lacking emotion. "You're right. I dont have to but i want to. I always keep my promises. What school is it? I can pick you up if you want. " I said trying to compromise. " Its Falcons, falcons private academy. Its a boarding school. I am supposed to go home on the weekends. I have to go home eventually. My uncle will probably be pissed that i wasnt there this weekend. I stay on dorms all week and we have to wear uniforms." She said slowly and over showing the boredness of it all. "Do you have a phone or a car?" i asked unknowingly. "kinda? Uhh well i have a car but it doesnt leave my My uncles. And i have a phone but i can only call my uncle and text about five people. No apps or anything just a plain silver flip phone." she droned. I decided to change the subject to get her off the uncheeriness of going home. "whats this uniform look like?" i said a little too seductively. She laughed "blue plaid grey black for girls, dark green plaid for boys." she said happily and smiling. I have to think of some kind of plan. "When do you go back?" I asked drawing out random syllables. " Tomorrow, so if you want to drop me off tonight or tomorrow morning it will be fine.." she trailed off. "Cynthia, I just want you to know just how much fun i have had with you. Alot. I wish my whole life was this fun." I confessed and turned on my side to face her. Her hair was sprawled all over the place. I started toying with it. She blushed. "its been a dream come true." she said and faced me. "Best friends? " she proposed. "Not in a million years........ Would I ever say no to that request." I finished. She grinned and our hands linked. Happy to have her smiling, I got up and pulled her up with me. "cmon. " i said as i led her out the door grabbimg my keys off of the counter. We were in the truck when she asked. "where are we going?" i replied. "to do something crazy" . She just scoffed and looked out the window after turning up some linkin park. I drove around until i found a nice sized house. I then removed some eggs bologna saran wrap and toilet paper from a brown sac behiInd my seat. "ERIk! What the hell are you doing!? You dont even know these people!" she reasoned. And the look on her face was priceless when i said "Exactly" .we got out quietly. Then tip toed up the driveway. I got first yolk by cracking it right in front of their door. She went and layed some bologna on the hoods of their bmw buick and the small sports car. Also bombing the inside of the hummer that had its windows left down with eggs. I then started saran wrapping the hummer. Slowly. She got the sports car. We then made a happy face all over their huge front green lawn with what was left of bologna. Then on our way out we threw eggs all over their house. We were cruising down the street when we heard the police. We broke out in laughter and hid in an alley next to a nail salon In laughing fits. "The funniest thing is that they are going to accuse other people." i said chuckling. Her laugh was like music. "Lets get you to sleep my juvenile school girl." i said jokingly. We drove home and i piggy backed her all the way to the bed. "Goodnight.." she mumbled onto her pillow. As she slept i went and enrolled at falcons online.

I will keep my promise.I just hope she isnt that mad at me. I slept on the couch. My eyes shot open when i heard her alarm go off for the first time. She snoozed and i got up. I made some waffles. With the toaster. Then I showered and got dressed but not in uniform because that might ruin the surprise. I opened the balcony and let the breeze blow in. I plugged in her straightener and poured her a glass of mountain dew. She finally got up on the third or fourth snooze. It was 5:13

And her alarn started going off at 4:30. She gratefully took the glass and drank, obviously thirsty. She groaned and stretched to my amusement. She was like a freaking zombie in the morning! And its hilarious. She yawned and literally dragged her feet to the bathroom. I was rolling in laughter. I heard the water running and prayed to god she wouldn't drown. She came out with straight hair back in a headband with clean teeth. "cynthia theres waffles at the table." i whispered in her ear. We were in the hallway and she was very very sleepy. She turbed around to look at me and cocked her head to the side. Then out of no where she wrapped her small arms around my neck and kissed me so sweetly.

It was a gentle minty sweet kiss. And it made my heart skip a beat. "Erik you're even cute in the morning."

she stated leaning her head on my shoulder.

Then she turned and walked away. And i was the one that felt like a zombie.

I went and sat in the bed. She scurried here and there basically to the mirror and to the closet.

Finally she came and stood in front of me. She had on her dcs. Then Knee high argyle printed with neon colored socks. Lots of thigh smooth and stunning. A short flared blue plaid skirt that just hardly covered her ass to where no one could see. Black suspenders over a half tucked half loose greyish light blue button down that had the first three undone revealing a neon green tank. Her hair was straightened and pulled back by a plastic black sparkly headband. Her eyelashes were long and her eyeliner drew attention to her bright green eyes. "Perfect?" she asked biting her lip. "It will be later." i said giving mystery. She looked at me like an idiot. I stuffed my tie in my pocket and grabbed my keys."off we go?" I asked. She nodded.
