Run Away Heir

3: He'd Actually Like It

Now we're off to Study hall for last period and after that is the burial of Jordan Wallace, the idiot.

It was nice knowing you, buddy.

"Hey Bennett, you've been silent all afternoon! Are you even still with us?" Jordan exclaimed while waving his right hand against my face.

I thought you were dead.

"Of course, aren't you still used to 'cool' Bennett?" Naomi replied to Jordan's idiotism.

I glared at her, knowing that we both agreed that she'll never call me that ever again.

"Nevermind, his head can already fry an egg," Declan declared. Declan declared, wow.

Then I glared at Declan, who is now snickering at the thought that they can already fry an egg on my head.

"You do know that I'm just here in front of you guys," I said out if nowhere.

Jordan gasped, "He can talk!" And Naomi did the same.

Why is my everyday even like this?

Jordan becomes and stays an idiot.

Declan just stays at a corner and talks when something is relateable.

Naomi... blends in with mostly Jordan but serious in studies.

Me? Sarcastic, takes the fun out, I just want a silent day, unfortunately that will be impossible with Jordan.

"Jordan, of course I can talk, so shut up."

"Shut up and da-"

"-you shut up, not sing." I cut him off before he grows back to idiot mode... the mode in which he is always at.

"Thy shalt declare that Bennetth ofth allth people–"

"I said shut up," I snapped.

Then our table never made a noise since then, well except for flipping pages and Jordan's pen tapping.

I'm just busy reading a random book that I randomly pulled out at a random shelf, that's how life is right now.

"Jordan, please stop," Declan said with a little frustration.

"I thought you liked music," Naomi answered.

"Jordan's playing a tune with the wrong beat," then he shot a glare on Jordan.

"Wait, how do you know what song I was pen tapping at?" Jordan asked.

Declan pointed at his head and said, "Logic."

Then Jordan slouched at his seat amd continued reading, "This one's boring, it doesn't have any colors to look at."

"But you're color blind," Naomi replied.

Jordan shot a glare at Naomi then looked at me, "Bent, if you're just gonna tell me to get a grave, please put that grave on a rainbow this time."

"Wait, why at a rainbow? Why not at another universe?" Declan suddenly asked.

"Maybe he thought that he would get his 'colorful' sight back if he dies in a rainbow," Naomi replied.

Jordan then suddenly gasped and smiled proudly, "Naomi, dear, you know your mother so well, now there's proof that I'm the one who raised you," then he wiped a tear from his eye. He's too emotional.

"Wait mother? Then who's the father?" Declan asked again.

Naomi stared at him for a long time. Wait, Jeclan does exist?

"If you would just be happy to have a grave over the rainbow, just go die already," I said.

Then Jordan just clasped his hands together. He'd actually like it. I guess he's praying about how thankful he is right now.

Now that school's over, it is time for Jordan's funeral, oh haha, I mean we're going to the base for an hour or so.

"So, how's life so far?" Naomi asked while reading a book.

"Horrible, because Jordan changed his mind. I actually thought that I'd already have a Jordan-Free life," Declan answered while playing his video game.

"Isn't that mean?" Jordan snapped Declan while eating vanilla ice cream.

"What about you Bennett?" Naomi asked me. 

I looked at them, giving them my usual poker face.

"Normal... as ever. Annoyed by Jordan and used as an ATM by Jordan and Declan."

"Hey, no comments about how annoying Naomi can be as well?" Jordan exclaimed but Naomi just twisted his ear, "Oww."

I let out a quiet chuckle. I gotta admit, seeing Jordan get tortured like that is the only thing powerful enough to make me atleast smile.

"Hey guys! Bennett's smiling!" Declan suddenly said out of nowhere.

I quickly changed my smile into a poker face, "No I'm not."

"Yes you did!" Declan replied.

"Lying is bad Bennett, liars go to hell," Jordan snapped.

"Just admit that you did smile, Bennett," Naomi said.

I wore a smirk, "Okay, I admit that I didn't smile."

"AW COME ON BENNETT!" Declan said in exhasperation.

And again, this guy wins.

"Ey Bennett, why don't you smile?" Naomi snapped.

I just shook my head, "Because I don't want to."

"Why do you don't want to?" Jordan asked.

I rolled my eyes, "Because if I did, you'd annoy me more."

Good point, right?

"Why would we -" then he pointed at the three of them "-annoy you?"

I stood up and picked the magazine I was reading and went to my room.

"I think we just pissed him off again," Naomi said.

I just sat on my bed and read the magazine that I was reading earlier then suddenly my phone rang.

It's a voice message, from dad.

I declined it, I don't want to be invited in another banquet.

I stood up and looked at the mirror. I saw a reflection... not me, but a run away heir.

I don't want to own a multi-billion company, nor be fancy at the first place.

"She just wants to be beautiful
She goes unnoticed, she knows no limits,
She craves attention, she praises an image,
She prays to be sculpted by the sculptor
Oh she don't see the light that's shining
Deeper than the eyes can find it
Maybe we have made her blind
So she tries to cover up her pain, and cut her woes away~~~" Yes, I just sang that part.

Scars to Your Beautiful by Alessia Cara.

I turned my head to the door.

I saw the three of them, all jaw dropped, don't tell me...

"How long have you been there?" I asked.

"YOU SING?!"
