Imperfect Love

Chapter 2

      Chapter 2:

             "Hey Callie!"

            " Hey Annie what's up?"

 My best friend Anastasia Ford, Annie for short. She's 17 has dirty blonde hair and blue eyes. way better looking than I am by far. Annie and I have always been there for each other since the beginning. We met each other in primary school. We've been stuck together like glue ever since. Especially because we have so much in common.

               "Can you come over around 5 we need to catch up on some major stuff."

 I checked the clock on my phone. It's currently 4:45. I left at 3. I've been here that long? Hm.

              "Annie I don't know I-"

             "No excuses I have pizza and rocky road ice cream." she chirped as she cut me off.

Ugh god I'm going to get in so much trouble. But I can't refuse the power of the rocky road.

               " Fine I'll see you in 10"

She squealed as I hung up. I thank Mrs.Grande as I walkout the café and off to Annie's house. It's just a couple blocks away from here so I should make it in time. Annie is very punctual so if I'm not there by the time she says she gets all crazy and things get messy.

           "Callie!" she squealed like she hasn't seen me in 3 years.

          "My god Annie you saw me yesterday." I laugh.

          "I'm sorry-it's just-you know how it is." she stutters.

          "Ya I know it almost happened to me right now but I snuck out......."

          "Callie!"

          " I Know it's just that I-I couldn't take it anymore." I trail off.

         "Well you should've told me sooner if I would've known-"

        "I snuck out way before you even called me Annie it's ok."

          "Ok it's just that they are finally out and I wanted to take advantage of it since we only get see each other like three times a week."

         " Like I said Annie it's ok."

          "Ok good because I didn't want to eat the whole tube of ice cream all by myself."

          "Well I'm glad I can keep you company then." I laugh' "So if you don't mind it's freezing out here and I have no sweater sooo."

        "Oh my god I didn't even notice you didn't have one on sorry." she laughs. "Come on in madam mouiselle." she bows while opening the door.

        "Why thank you ma'am." I laugh.

 As soon as we walk in I'm greeted by the warmth of the house.

         "Finally!" I exclaimed.

        "Yes, now pick a movie while I go get some blankets."

       "Otay."

 I look through the movies and see one that catches my eye.

         "Hey did you find one?" she asks coming down the stairs with a hand full of blankets.

 I turn around with Jumanji in my hands. She turns around putting the blankets down and faces me.

          "Really?"

          "Yes!!!"

          "No."

          "Why noot?" I ask while holding out the o and putting my best puppy face on.

          "That's not fair! You used the puppy face."

          "Pleease" I ask again holding out the e still having my puppy face.

           "Fine."

           "Yes!!" No one can resist my puppy face.

 .

        After the movie it was getting late.

            "I think I have to go now." I yawned.

             "Wait! Do you think you can wait for a while until you know for sure he's asleep? I don't want you getting in trouble."

 That seems reasonable.

              "Why not."

    We ended up watching countless movies and it was soon 2 in the morning.

            "Do you need a ride?" she asked.

            "Are you sure?"

            "Of course."

            "Ok."

 We get in the car and she starts to drive off.

        " When are your parents coming back?" I ask.

          " Oh ummm I don't know and don't really care as long as I get a break from being a fucking punching bag."

        "You and I both." I murmured. Soon enough we were at the hell house.

        "I'll see you Monday?" I asked praying she won't ditch school.

        "Sure." she breaths out.

 We've had a lot of problems at school too. Even though that was in primary, she's still afraid to get bullied. I don't blame her though we got bullied bad. Ever since then she ditched, I'm surprised her parents never caught her either. But whenever I try to ditch my father somehow finds out and beats me. I don't see why he cares either. It's less he has to "worry" about me.

         "Thank you Annie. It's really not that bad anymore you'll see."

         "I know it's just that," She sighs, "It's just going to get some getting used to."

         "Ya, well thanks for the ride see you soon."

         "Ok text me as soon as you get to your room ok?"

         "Yes Annie now go get some rest you need it."

         "Ok bye!"

         "Bye!"

  Now back to the world of suffering. Why can't  he take a vacation away. Oh ya, because he's a dumb ass who can't keep a job. None of the lights are on so I'm assuming he's asleep. I shut the door as quietly as I can and tiptoe up the stairs. Or at least try. The lights suddenly flicker on.

       "Finally you get home Callie."

 Well isn't this just great.
