Movie Night

January 22, 2016
Maya's POV
Me and Riley sat down at the bay window comfortably.

"Hmh... now what?" Riley asked, breaking the silence between us.

"I don't know." I said and shrugged, looking at the purple wall

"How about Movie night?" She said, excitedly as the thought popped in her heard.

"Sure. How about at my place?" I asked, finally looking at her.

"Yea!" She agreed, "Let's invite everyone!" She said.

"Ok." I said and smiled.

Maybe this will keep my mind off my dad. And.. my "sister."

We called everybody and they all agreed to come.

Me and Riley rushed to my house and started to make popcorn, a lot of popcorn, and added a little bit of salt and butter.

We got lots of blankets and started laying them down on my so called "couch" in my living room, and all over the carpet.

We made five bowls of popcorn and put them all in different places. One on the edge of the right corner of the couch, and did the same to another bowl, but put it on the left. Then we put the other three on the floor, in front of the TV and at the edge of the top of the top of the blankets.

After that, me and Riley plopped down on the couch.

I sighed, "So, what movie are we watching?" I asked.

"I don't know. It's your house." She said and shrugged.

*Beep* "Lucas," "and Farkle," "dont forget me!" Lucas, Farkle, and Zay said I to the microphone thingy.

"I'll get it!" I said to Riley, and rushed to the door.

I pushed the little button on the little thing by my door, and it made a *beep*, "Come up!" I said into the microphone loudly.

I heard loud thumping noises as they climbed up stairs.

There isn't an elevator, because the person who owns this building can't afford an elevator. Riley's building has an elevator, and so does Farkle. Not having an elevator is one of the many conditions you have to adapt to when you live in the poor part of town.

The door opened and the three guys appeared.

Farkle and Zay quickly ran into the house. Farkle jumped next to Riley, while Zay lied on the floor on the blankets and started to eat the popcorn out of the left bowl.

Lucas didn't do anything, he just stood there, and didn't move, staring at me.

He started up and down and looked back into my eyes.

I wasn't wearing anything special. Just black sweatpants and a black sleeveless shirt with the words "Your boring, bye" written in white on it.

I stared back into his eyes for a couple seconds, but I was interrupted by Farkle's loud voice, "OK! So what are we watching tonight??!" He screamed.

Me and Lucas both snapped out of our daze and looked directly at him.

"Um..." I said, not even knowing what he asked.

"Oh," I said as I walked over and sat next to Zay who was still stuffing his face with popcorn on the floor, "I haven't really thought about that." I said and shrugged.

Lucas came over and sat next to me, while looking at the selection of movies.

"How about 'Fast and Furious'?" Farkle asked.

"Why not?" I said and shrugged, as I reached over and put the movie cd in its little spot.

Two hours later...
Maya's POV

So we've just finished 'Fast and Furious'... or I'VE just finished 'Fast and Furious.'

Riley is laying down with her head in Farkle's lap, and Farkle is sitting in the same spot he had been sitting in the whole time, except with his hand on her stomach, and obviously he is sleeping.

I honestly think that they look really cute.

Lucas had actually fallen asleep on my shoulder for a while, and I had allowed it until I realized LUCAS had fallen asleep on my shoulder, so I pushed him off gently. Now he is just curled up in a ball on the floor, on top of all the blankets.

And Zay... fell asleep with his head in the popcorn bowl. I'm not lying, he is literally face first in the popcorn bowl.

Since I was in a room with unconscious people hearing nothing more than Riley's loud snoring, I decided to go get something to drink.

I walked into my small, but suitable kitchen, and went into the fridge.

There wasn't much except for water and a bottle of orange juice, from what I could see. That doesn't taste good when all you've been eating is popcorn for the past two hours.

Just to make sure there was nothing else, I moved the orange juice and water out of the way, and you'll never guess what I found.

My moms been drinking again. Great. I feel bad for her... but she does this to herself. It's because of my dad... she still hasn't gotten over it.

Well, I guess my mom wouldn't mind if I had... a little bit of her 'High Life'. That's what it's called. High Life.

I looked around once and picked up the bottle. I ran to the bathroom.

The only reason I'm drinking this right now, is because I've had a problem sleeping... not always.

Just ever since my dad left. Ever since that, it's been hard to fall asleep.

And now that I've seen him recently... and found out I have a half sister, I've kind of lost it. I've been drinking sometimes, eating less, and even cutting.

I only cut once and a while though. Not every day.

I think I have depression, or whatever it's called. But nobody can ever know. Nobody can know that I cry myself to sleep, or pray to god I will wake up as somebody else with a mom and dad, and wish I wasn't... broken.

But enough of that.

I opened the bathroom door and locked it. I looked at the beer. I opened it and took a couple sips.

Before you knew it everything was dizzy, and blurry. I can't really remember much after that.
