Perceive

Hey Ma, Someone Tried To Kill Me!

When I woke up next morning, I woke to the sound of a gunshot. I'll admit I don't live in the best of neighbourhoods, because I can't afford to, but moving back home in Ohio, never sounded better to me.
Looking around I realised, I did actually sleep it off in the bathroom naked as the day of my birth. It was then that I also realised that someone or something just broke into my kitchen.
I put on my basketball shirt and robe and took my trusty knife out from under the covers( So Lara Croft) and ran into the kitchen, to find a big fat ginger cat hiding in my trash can. I knew I hadn't imagined the gunshot, so I went around my pea sized apartment to check it out further.
The donkey fucking bastard broke my living room/ game room window. Well he's going to pay for that in cash and every other kind I can possibly think of, when I find him. Shithead!
I called the cops corner and reported it and in the meanwhile adopted the fatty in my trash can.
After cleaning out the glass shards and putting up newspaper in the window hole, I was just about to leave to go to the vet and have my cat Garfield,(oh I love that name and cartoon) checked up and vaccinated, when Adri came in barging like an angry bull.
"Cass, call, Dammit!!!How retarded are you???"
Since I had no response to give him, I chose to look past him , and speak to my cat," Hey, Gary look, it's the cops...so early!" And I kept walking on ahead.
As soon I had the thought that I might've finally lost him, he came bounding towards me with a giant shit eating grin, and he said," Hey Cassie, my super cute favourite bestie...." I cut him off with," You get to be my security detail because you somehow managed to convince the higher ups that those people who killed the doctor are now gunning for me,right??"
"Cass....so you haven't lost your freak yet?...I wonder, is it a real supernatural thing, or are you just that good at reading people?"
"I mean wow, Adri, is that the most you've ever spoken to anyone, in forever? Also now that you are moving in, come with we have a cat who needs a vet, and refrigerator that needs food and groceries. Come on Alyssa, we gotta go!"
"Are you always going to be calling me by little girls names forever, because that just got proven really wrong in your bedroom last night."
Hmm...so he hadn't forgotten, and there was a real reason he left, not his regular I'm so scared I might rust my pants excuse. Interesting!
Lost in my thoughts, I didn't even realise when Adri, casually looped his arm around my shoulder, I didn't cringe or mind it as much as I thought I would.
We walked to Walmart and on finishing our purchase we went to the vet, who told us that the cat was in perfect condition except, he was scared and needed all his vaccinations, before I could keep him permanently.
We then proceeded to go back home and re-stock my fridge. Soon after, I wanted to go out for a stroll, Garfield decided to nap and me and Adri were going to step out for a while.
About 10 minutes into the walk, I had a feeling. A strong one. Like I was being watched and since I couldn't get to keep my thoughts to myself anymore, I said," Adri we have a tail at 6 o'clock and 9 o'clock".
Adrian, like the guy he is, said, " Cass, I need you to turn around and slowly go back home while I distract-" and I cut him off with," No way, Jose!"
A staring match( I won) and 10 minutes later, we led the idiots into a back alley. And me being me, I couldn't stop myself, I jumped out from behind the trash cans and socked Blondie in his gut. Red head seemed to be offended and tried to come at me from the back, I turned on my heel and elbowed him in the jaw. Two minutes into the fight I knew exactly where to tear them new ones.
I gave another body blow to Blondie in the same place and a downward elbow to Red head's head.
I was so mad I didn't even realise Adri, kept on staring at me like a vegetable for as long as the smack down happened.
"You know how to do that? How and why?"
I never told Adri about my past, it wasn't pg 13 inspite of having the best parents in the world. Just because they are so amazing, I didn't have the heart to break theirs by telling them everything. And the same applied to Adri too. I was a grown up now, and there wasn't a lot that could possibly hurt me, but I wasn't opening up that box of worms ever.
"Adri, don't you know, I can do anything", I said cockily.
"Now that we've taken care of chuckles the ass clown,let's go take care of the elderly tail that we've had all this while."
He spotted Gray head before I did, and lucky for me, because that man was about to pull out a gun.
Before he could, Adri, used his training and skills, and skillfully, knocked him flat out with one hand and disarmed him with the other.
Now, let me tell you this, I know I'm tall strong and fast and an Amazon, but seriously lifting the dead weight of three obese people locked in surprisingly good bodies is tough. We got them on to the side and when they slowly started stirring, my interrogation began.
" Oy, Barbie, why were you following me around, and who pulled that terrible shot on me this morning, either you start talking or I'm going to slowly kill you".
Barbie there just grinned at me and said," The way you hit me was so hot, I don't know what hurts more, my gut or my boner".
Red head joined in and said," Oh yeah, the chit knows how to pack a punch".
All that crap and no answers, finally, losing all of my patience I decided that I must put the fear of me, in him. Now before I  explain what exactly happened there, let me clear a couple of things with you.
No I don't practice witchcraft.
No I didn't go to Hogwarts.
And no I can't ever, for the life of me, explain how I did what I did. All I do know that it's something I can do, and it's the creepiest thing I have witnessed myself do. Which makes me soooo cool.
