Sold for my Fathers Debt.

Chapter 4

When we got back Lucy went to my room without saying a word. I set my helmet on the table and grabbed a drink from the fridge. I brought it with me to the living room and plopped down on the couch, turning the tv on. "Haru..." I turned to see Lucy peeking around the corner. "Yea?" I asked. "Where is your laundry room ?" She asked. I gestured to a door behind her. "Oh, thanks" she gave me a small smile and ran back upstairs, leaving me confused. I put it out of mind and continued watching my show. About 15 minutes later she came back down and ran downstairs with a hamper full of clothes, moments later she ran back upstairs. I got up and followed after her. "What're you doing?" I asked walking in to what seemed like an alternate dimension. My floor was visible, Lucy sweeping it. The sheets of my bed were in the hallway, I assume they were waiting to be washed. "It was messy so I thought I'd clean up a bit..." She said. It was kind of embarrassing to have a girl clean my room... "Thanks" I smiled. She seemed like she was ready to cry. "I appreciate it" I said reaching out and patting her on the head, without even realizing it. Her face turned red and she pushed my hand away. "I-I only did it because I have to sleep in here too and it was gross!" She said turning around and going back to her sweeping. I laughed at her. "Since it is my room, I should help right?" I grabbed the dust pan and held it for her. "I can do it myself" she mumbled. "It'll be faster if I help" I insisted. She didn't say anything more in protest, and for a moment I thought she was cute. For a moment. Not long after she had me running the laundry too and from the laundry room, mopping the hardwood floor, taking the trash out, etc. When we were done, I flopped down on my bed. "I just made that!" She whined. "It's still made" I said, she crossed her arms. "But now it has wrinkles in it" she looked at me with an unimpressed expression. Her stomach grumbled ruining her strong look, I laughed at how she tried to act like the loud growl never happened. "Let's go eat somewhere!" I suggested sitting up. "I don't have any money" she said. "It's fine, my treat for helping me clean my room" I smiled. "I'll pay you back" I grabbed her helmet. "Don't worry about it" I held it out to her.

Lucy's POV.

We went to McDonalds, not very healthy but I was starving, not to mention Haru was paying for me. "What do you want?" He asked focused on the menu boards. I looked them over too. "I'll just get a cheeseburger..." I said. He made a sarcastic sound. "W-what?" I looked up at him. "As if that'll satisfy, I heard your stomach growl. It sounded like a monster, monsters need much more than that" he gave a lopsided smile. "W-wha!" I felt my cheeks glow fiercely. "Don't worry about the cost, seriously." He smiled. "Th-then I'll get two...and fries...and m-maybe a drink" I fidgeted. "Don't go buying out the store now" he said. "But you just said-!" he put his hands up defensively. "Woah! Calm down I'm only joking" he chuckled. "R-right..." We placed our order, got our drinks, and sat down. I nearly inhaled me food. I was done before Haru, which made me feel embarrassed at how fast I realized I had eaten. I sipped my drink awkwardly. "So...are you okay now?" He asked gently. "Yea..." Even though he forced me to kiss him, Haru was actually really kind. It seemed like he was always taking care of me. "That's good" he smiled. Before I even realized it I was smiling back at him, but my smile vanished when I realized the blue eyes glaring at me from behind perfect blonde hair. Audrey and her clones were sitting in a booth behind Haru. I suddenly felt my stomach drop. I broke eye contact and tried to act like I hadn't seen them, but it was too late because the next moment Audrey was standing at our table. "Haru!" She purred. "Hey" he said crunching up him his wrapper and whipping his hands off with a napkin. "We were just leaving, it looks like you're done too. Why not come hangout with us? Doesn't look like much fun here" she looked at me and smiled back at him. My stomach knotted. Would he really leave with them? I mean she was right, I wasn't really fun. Why wouldn't he go? "Sorry, I'd rather not. Have fun though" he smiled. I felt myself relax, even smile a little. Which was a mistake, because Audrey saw it. Crap. She looked so pissed but forced herself to smile for him. "Maybe next time then" she turned around and pushed past her clones, walking out. "Why didn't you go?" I asked. "I'm not really into being fussed over by Audrey, and her soulless followers. They're a bunch of idiots" he rolled his eyes. "Right..." He took the trey and dumped the garbage. "Shall we go?" I stood up and followed him. "Is there anything you wanna do? Wanna go anywhere?" He asked holding the door open for me. "Not really, did you?" I asked. "Well actually...my friends throwing a party" he said. "You can just drop me off I'll just wait in your room till you get back" I said worrying about his dad coming home. "What are you talking about? I was asking you if you wanted to go with me" he looked serious but I couldn't tell. "Come on, as if. What would people say if they saw us together? I mean, other than Audrey. I'll bring down your popularity" I laughed nervously. "Popularity? Who cares. I'll hang out with whoever I want" he smirked. "B-besides I've never even been to a party" I looked for more excuses, although it was true I had never been to that kind of party. "Don't worry about, just don't wonder too far from me, and don't take any drinks anybody gives you. You never know what's in it" he got on his bike. "So?" He handed me my helmet. I took a deep breath. "Fine, I'll go" I got on and put my arms around him. "Good girl" he chuckled and started the engine.
