"AMELIA!" I jumped and set down the book I was reading. "Cody why the hell are you shouting? We're literally 10 feet away from each other." He shrugged and shoved Maxx off his lap. "What do you want?" I asked. "I'm bored." I learned earlier that Cody didn't need my help with anything, he just didn't want to be alone. That was his reason, not mine. "Go out and do something, it's only 7." I picked my book up again and started reading from where I left off. "Maxx quit it. Maxx. Maxx. Maxx. Maxx. Maxx. MAXX!" I groaned and shouted, "CODY SHUT THE HELL UP I SWEAR TO GOD!" The room became quiet and I looked back at my book. "Dan can we go get food? Please! Please! Please! PLEEEASE!" I groaned and slammed the book shut. "I'm going to Rian's." I packed up all the things I needed and left the room.
I knocked on the orange door. It opened and Rian looked at me in confusion. "I thought you were helping Cody tonight." I rolled my eyes. "He didn't need any help, besides he's being fucking annoying, can I be in here until curfew?" He motioned for me to come in and shut the door behind me. "Hey Jack. Where are the girls?" He motioned to the room over. "Melanie's room. We decided to have Jack move in here and Ashley with Melanie." I nodded in understanding and sat down on the floor. "What are you reading?" I looked up from the book. "A book for English, I've already read it, but I needed to focus on something other than Cody and it was the closest thing to me." Rian nodded. "Are you bringing any snacks to first?" I shrugged. "I don't know, maybe some candy. What about you?" He held up a bag. "I bought a few things of chips for last Saturday and there were some left over. You could sit next to me, Ryan switched out of the class." I nodded and tossed the book aside. "Will do, Alex is being really weird toward me. He keeps winking at me." Jack snorted and ended up coughing. Rian laughed and tossed him an unopened can of Red Bull. He handed me a Monster and smiled. "He did the same thing to me before he asked me out." Jack smiled sadly and took a sip of his beverage. "How long were you guys together?" He sighed. "Since summer, we grew up together and our parents decided to send us here. I don't understand why he cheated on me, he told me he was gay in the 7th grade." I frowned and pulled my eyebrows together. "If you want I could talk to him? I want to know why he is being weird toward me anyway." Jack shrugged and sipped his RedBull. "Sure, if you want. I just miss him."
It only felt like a few seconds had passed when it turned 10:45. I yawned and got up. "I'll see you guys in the morning." I left the room and stumbled my way to my room. I opened the door and noticed the empty and quiet environment. A note had been placed on my straightened duvet. I picked it up and looked it over.
I'm staying with Maxx tonight, see you in the morning -Cody
I smiled to myself, I won't have to worry about him getting up and singing in the shower, like he did every morning. I put on some pajamas and climbed into bed.I slammed my hand down on Cody's alarm and cursed him for forgetting to turn it off before he left. I shuffled into the bathroom and turned on the shower. Once it was ready, I climbed in and washed myself. When I was done, I got dressed. I pulled on a Black Sabbath shirt and a pair of ripped, black skinny jeans. I did my easy makeup and pulled my hair into a high pony tail. I put in my ear piercings and looked at myself in the mirror. After giving myself a nod of approval, I shoved my feet into a pair of tattered black and white Converse. I threw my backpack onto my back and grabbed the bag of M&M's. I left the room and locked it. "Lia! I was just going to knock to see if you wanted to walk to breakfast together!" I looked up and saw Jack standing a few feet from Dallon's door. "Uh sure, I don't normally eat though, I was just going to get some coffee."
