After Kara went on her rant about how much of an idiot Nathan is (like never calling her, never showing up to hang out with her at break, talking to other girls etc) she lent me a pair of shorts and a hoodie. We curled up on her double bed, grabbed her laptop and watched some horror movies to distract the both of us.
"Ew, ew, ew," Kara squeals, looking away from the screen. We're watching 'Train to Busan' even though it was Karas' suggestion, she doesn't enjoy it that much.
"I'll turn it off if you hate it so much," I chuckle at Kara, she is hiding behind a pillow.
Gore isn't Karas' strong point unlike me. I have seen way worse in real life while fighting other supernatural beings, it's not pretty but I grew accustomed to it over time, it doesn't get to me as much anymore. You'd think with Kara's dad being a police officer she would have seen something but nope.
"No!" She shouts, turning back to the screen to watch the movie with me.
That lasts another two minutes before I have to turn it off. After that, we get comfortable in bed and start talking to each other, Kara ends up falling asleep by one a.m.
The next morning, I'm out of bed at the same time as her dad, Chan. He wakes up at five a.m. to leave the house for work at seven. "Good morning Mr Matin," I greet as he stands at the coffee machine waiting for his coffee.
"Morning Evangeline," he greets, yawning.
Kara's family knows about my family and myself. We told them when Kara was around ten for safety reasons, they took a while to come to terms with it, worried for their only daughters' safety around us, mum explained to them that Kara was safer knowing than not.
Kara didn't care, she thought it was great that she had a 'superhero' for a best friend. After all these years though, her parents still have a hard time remembering that I'm not like them.
"Breakfast?" Mr Martin asks, gesturing to the pantry turning around, his coffee in hand.
"Uh, no," I say awkwardly. "I don't eat, remember?"
Mr Martin almost spits his coffee everywhere as he begins apologising profusely, saying he forgot but it makes me laugh. I wave a dismissive hand at him and tell him it's okay, eventually, he calms down and begins preparing his lunch.
"I was wondering if you could let Kara know I went home when you wake her up?" I ask him, standing at the entrance to the kitchen.
"Of course, have a good day at school," he says, waving me goodbye.
I grab my bag from Karas' room, careful not to wake her, then super-sped my way back downstairs, grabbing my shoes. I slip them on and quietly head out the door, I breathe in the fresh early morning, it's still dark and the sun doesn't rise for another hour so I super-speed my way home.
When I get inside the house, it's not as quiet as normal. I run upstairs heading towards my room, but I find dad and Liam yelling at each other, again. I awkwardly walk past and open my door to find my room the same as I left it yesterday.
I drop my bag on my bed and walk into my wardrobe, going through my shirts I pull out a plain white long sleeve, going over to my jackets I find my long black, Gucci wool coat just incase today gets cold, I grab a pair of denim shorts with rose embroidery on the back pockets and get changed.
I grab my black LV sneakers and an LV silver locket necklace. After all of that, I hear Liams' door slam and dad yelling at him to open his door, I grab my school bag and make my way into the hallway where dad is banging on Liams' door.
Andy also exits his room, looking pissed off as well. "Can you two shut up!?" He shouts, "We still have neighbours, and some of us like a little peace and quiet at six in the morning."
