"I don't like that guy." Jared tells me as soon as Todd leaves.
"You don't like any boy that ever talks to me." I roll my eyes.
"Not the point."
"I don't like him either okay. I want to leave this stupid house. You're the one that told me to get all noble and stay with Haze!" She booms.
"Well you couldn't have left him. Forgive me for having a conscience!."
"Oh. So now I don't have a conscience!."
"Well...you're acting like someone who doesn't!"
"Why are we even fighting?!"
"I don't know!!!!!" Jared finishes.
I sigh. He sighs.
"It's this stupid house. My stupid mother. It's getting to me."
"What happened between you two anyways." Jared asked me.
"I was born a mistake. Meant to be a boy. My mum told me that everyday. No matter what I did she was never satisfied. She neglected me. Hit me and abused me everyday. Then came the breaking point. She gave me up for adoption. Made me become a fudging sex slave. And didn't give a fuck. My dad was the only one that gave two shits about me. Haze too. They rescued me and one I came back home she was still a bitch."
I burst into tears and Jared tries to comfort me.
I fall asleep in his arms.
*************************************
Darkness.
I'm running, I'm running.
"You can't escape me." My mother appears she chases me with a gun in her hand. "You are a mistake. You need to die. You are a curse."
"Well that's one way to bring up a child's self esteem." I mutter.
"Not so fast." She smirks. She holds a body in her hand and shoots at it like it's nothing.
"Jared!!!!!" I cry out.
My mother takes some of his blood and rubs it on me.
"Look what you've done. You killed the only one that loved you."
She laughs as she vanishes.
"I didn't." I cry out. "Jared. Please forgive me. Jared."
************************************
I wake up with a start.
I stretch my hand out and look for Jared but I can't find him.
"Jared!" I cry out.
"Morning sunshine." He greets as the door opens. "Got you pancakes."
"Thanks." I sigh.
"Aren't you gonna eat?" He asks as he puts them on the table.
"Not hungry. Need to exercise." I say. I take a shower. Put my hair in a ponytail, put on my sports outfit with my trainers, then head downstairs.
"Hi hottie." Arms wrap around my waist.
"Let me go creep." I knee him where the sun doesn't shine.
"Bitch." I hear him hiss .
Todd is staring at the scene and laughing.
"She's not one of my sluts Jacob." Todd corrects the boy who is currently on the ground.
"Who is she?" Jacob asks.
"Your new sister." I smile at him as I walk out the door.
How many boys live here?
I run from that house and make it all the way back home.
Or as much as home as my brothers house is.
I sit on the sofa, watch TV and order pizza.
A knock on the door comes as soon as I take a bite out of my pizza.
"Jar- ," I pause. "Todd?"
"In the flesh." He smiles.
"Get out." I try to shove him out but he doesn't budge.
"On the wrestling team, bitch." He says as he saunters in.
"Impressive, asshole."
"Nice house." He comments taking a slice of my pizza.
I bite it before he puts it in his mouth and he only smiles at me, he takes a bite of the pizza I ate without even wincing.
"You know that means we just kissed right? We exchanged saliva. The boyfriend might not like that."
"Get out." I say.
"Why?"he asks. "Why do you hate this family?" His eyes are suddenly serious. "I don't get it."
"It's a long story."
"It's your mother isn't it?"
"I guess it wasn't that long a story."
"Well..You're should take some time to get to know us. Us, boys I mean. And your new sister too. We aren't that bad."
"Sure...I just hope that your siblings are more obedient than you are....I've told you to get out twice now."
"You don't look like you want to be left alone."
"Trust me...I feel like I do. The only person I need is my boyfriend Jared."
"Nah...you need your favourite brother. Lean back. Relax, I'm really good company."
I groan.
"Do you have Netflix?" He asks.
"Why?"
"I want to binge watch Drake and Josh."
I laugh as I switch the TV to Netflix mode.
I never thought that it'd be so simple but
I found a way, I found a way.
"If you open up your mind."
"You'll see, You'll see."
"It's gonna take some time to realise."
"Oh, oh, oh."
"But if you look inside I'm sure you'll find."
"Oh oh oh."
"Over your shoulder you know that I told you, I'll always be picking you up when your down."
"So just turn around...."
"Ooooooohhhhh." I sang the last bit.
"You're killing me." Todd laughs.
"Todd...I'm not that bad." I whine.
"Oh yes you are."
"Shhhhh. The show's starting." I lean on him. Letting my head rest on his shoulder, he puts his arm around my waist.
"See....aren't we perfect." He whispers into my ear.
"Fuck off. " I swat him away.
There's another knock on the door. I'm about to stand up to open it when Todd grip tightens around my waist.
"It's open!!." He shouts.
