"Damn that's your car" He asked in amazement as he stepped into his black 2014 Porsche turbo "My dad's " I answered back as I put on my black ray banns that surprisingly match his car perfectly "You think you're a real bad ass don't you Ariel" He smirked "I am a real bad ass Leo" I grinned back and pulled out the parking lot driving myself home.

I pulled in to an empty drive way they're not home yet? I thought to myself knowing that they're usually home by 3:45. It's almost 4:30 now I started thinking about what they could be up to dinner I mumbled under my breath as I opened the front door, I took off m shoe's and dropped them at the door I sighed a loud and run up the steps and into my room. I changed into a pair of black sweatpants and a white tank top and ran down the stair case bare foot. I plopped down in the lazy boy that seemed like only I sat in dew to the fact that I always put my feet on the arm rest, I turned on the tv and saw that percy's favorite show was on criminal minds I thought I should text him

To percy

Hey perc! wyd

I received a text back from him in a matter of seconds.

From percy 

watching criminal minds, What do you want.

 To Percy 

I met up with Leo after church and  I just got back, You know my mom and dad are?

From Percy 

YOU DID WHAT NOW! why didn't you tell me

To Percy 

well..... I'm telling you now and it just happened he text me and I asked if he wanted to meet at the coffee bean and he said yes. WHERE ARE MY PARENTS

From Percy

Dinner with mama and pops. what happened 

To Percy 

let me call you

I called Percy and explained to him what Leo and Marcus feel, see and experience I had told him about what happened to Leo when he looked at mark, Obviously leaving out the parts that mark was awkwardly staring at us. Of course he had put me on hold to write it all down. He can really get on my nerves at times well more like most of the time 

"Pecry its ten past nine are uncle Jacob and auntie Faye home yet" I asked hoping he'd say yes 

"No not yet, You know you can't always think of the worst" He shrugged calmly trying to distract my thoughts 

"I know but what if she comes home drunk again" I whispered, Thinking that if I hushed the words out  that, That possibility would not be real

"It's only nine thirteen who would get drunk at this time" He laughed off 

"She's gotten drunk at thre-" My words were cut off by a loud door slam open 

"Ariel Mari" I heard my sober mother yell out 

"I gotta go perc" I rushed "Is she" He asked, I didn't have enough time to answer "No she's not"  I heard the faint voice of aunt Faye answer for me "What she said love ya" I replied and hung up my phone

"Hey moma, How was dinner" I asked, Standing up and walking over to her, Not really caring for how dinner went but to hear her speak and smell her breath I still had my doubts 

"It went well, Baby what's this" she had touched the upper half of my  left arm 

"What's what" I asked looking down to where her finger tips were tracing " I...I don't.. know" I stuttered 

"well dose it hurt" she said pressing down on the purple bruise "Ahhh yes mom that hurts" I started to take her hand off of the bruise until "what hurts" I heard my dad yell from the kitchen I froze from the sound of his voice 

"A bruise" My mom had responded instantly "what did you do" I was still in a daze and didn't hear my mother "I'm sorry what" I asked so that she could repeat herself "What did you do" she repeated "Oh nothing I sat on the couch all day" I deiced to leave Leo out of it.

I heard my dad drag his feet across the light brown wooden floor "Let me see" He said tiredly "Ariel" He said pulling his hand up to his face and rubbing his eye "It looks like someone pulled your arm, The bruise is in the shape of a hand print" He gave me a firm look 

I ran my fingers over the bruise which caused me to suck air through my teeth in attempts to not show my pain... I failed

"Ariel, Go up stairs and sleep it off" my dad said plopping down on the couch and putting his feet up in the coffee table "Sleep a bruise off?" I questioned "that's what your grandfather always told me and I i'm telling you sleep it off" he throw his his arm up and motioned for my mom to sit next to him, As she was  walking over to him I thought I'll just go up stairs "Goodnight" I waved and slugged my body up the stairs 

I made my way to my bedroom and opened the door and walked in a now dark room I turned my lamp on and closed the door behind me. I pulled my phone out of my pocket and texted Percy

To Percy

I have a weird bruise on the upper half of my left arm. What do think

From Percy 

I don't know but that's odd

To Percy 

I know, It hurts A LOT more then a normal bruise 

From Percy 

It that the only abnormal thing about it?

To Percy 

No, the bruise is marked as finger prints 

From Percy

You need to FORGET about them weirdo's 

To Percy

There not weirdo's. This convo is over good night  

From Percy 

Wow I can feel the sarcasm 

To Percy 

Good :)

I locked my phone and threw it on my bed and watched to slid down the side of my bouncy bed, I laid on my back and stared at the ceiling slowly surrendering myself into a peaceful sleep
