My alarm clock went off in the morning with Shiver by Coldplay. I always set it on that song, my favorite song. I throw the blankets off of me and I head to the bathroom. I look in the mirror, im not ugly, but not pretty. My hair is an equal length and I have freckles on my cheekbones. My eyes, a light brown with a nose ring that shines in the light. Got that when my parents left, saying they would be back. Been 3 years. I pick up my toothbrush and I start to brush my teeth, the paste foams in my mouth. I rinse and wash my face. " Sophie your going to be late, well we are, just hurry up." my brother yells up the stairs. His voice is deep and I could hear the annoyance in his voice. I roll my eyes.
" Hey Jack" I say.
"Yeah" I hear him say.
"Shut up" I say. I could hear him sigh.
" Hey I know you don't want to go but a lot of people are expecting you to come, considering.....well you know."
" Yeah wish I didn't, just give me 20 min ok"
"Swear to god if you come out looking like a piece of crap, I will....." I cut him off.
"Ok, just shut up." I hear walk away and I walk to my closet.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I close the car door and stair at the site in front of me. I grab Jacks hand and I pull him close. I might actually cry today. " So.... They really found them, and they were....... they were dead." I say to Jack.
" Yep, and now we are about to sit in a 3 hour funeral full of " Im sorry for your loss " and " May god be with you through this bad time" all bull crap." He says. I chuckle.
" Just smile Jack, we wont want to disrespect our parents, espescially at their funeral." I say and we keep walking, waiting for the sorry's to come.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I slide the last piece of cake in my mouth, but it doesnt go with the saddness that is in the air. Its been 2 hours and all i heard was im "sorry", and "are you okay." Yea well like always i put on a damn smile and say" yes". I look around at everyone, old ladies with big hats, old men with bow ties and hangerchiefs. I dont even know half these people. Right now some people are volunteering to say some words about the great couple. Im literally about to burst out crying. I excuse myself and i walk twords the bathroom. I am flooding now and my hands cover my face. What makes it worse is there is couple doing it in the stall, so dirty. I guess they hear me because they stop, and i could hear clothes shuffling and belts being pulled up. I hear the stall door open and look up to see a girl (which she looked a mess, classic tool) and a guy who was also a mess, but a sexy mess. He was wearing black slacks and a white shirt with an apron, I guess he was a waiter.
" You must be the daughter of the couple that died, im so so..." he starts I don't let him finish.
"Yea no i had enough of that today, i just want to sit here and cry, and id love to do it alone."
" No one wants to be alone, you just dont want anybody to see you cry." He says as he walks away. What the hell, who is this guy, Ghandi. I get a tissue and wipe my face, unlike most girls in the movies i dont wear mascara so i dont have black roling down my eyes. I walk twords the door and grab the handle. I inhale and exhale letting myself get ready, then i open the door, and walk out with a smile on my face. When i walk out i see people starting to leave, it must be time to go. I have to find Jack, i look everywhere. Then i find him in a corner talking to a guy. I'm blind as fuck so i cant seee who the guy is. When i relize, i groan and slowly walk over to there location. Jack sees me and smiles, thats when Ghandi turns around and sees me. Just great. " Oh your the girl from the bathroom". He says, my brother looks confused.
"What were you too doing in the same bathroom' Jacks asks.
"More like what was she doing in the guys bathroom" Ghandi says, i really like that name. I chuckle but then i see my brothers face and stop. We wern't in the laughing position.
" More like you should shut up Ghandi." i say, they both look at me like im crazy, i just smirk.
" My name is Gavin, sorry I was being rude to not introduce myself. " he says. I roll my eyes.
"Soo, um Gavin your still coming over right, along with Gabby right." Jack asked, who the hell is Gabby.
"Yea i will be there, and so will Gabby. But now I have to go okay see you later." he says and they do the little, guy handshake stuff, then he winks at me. I shake my head and turn away. When he leaves me and my brother started to walk out. I'm curious.
" Who's Gabby?" I ask.
" A really hot girl." he says, with a smirk.
" Does she know who you are". I ask.
"Everyone knows who I am, and what's with all the questions."
" Nothing, just asking. I am hungry can we go eat."
" You got eating money". he says. I roll my eyes and laugh when we make it to the car, I look back at the building. I see two people behind the trash, I instantly recognize who it is and shake my head. Poor girl.
