Not So Typical

Chapter Thirteen

Today is the day I return home. Yay. I hope you can feel my sarcasm. I don't want to deal with my parents yelling and lying when I get home. I almost did everything I could do to extend my stay at Avery's house: Eat, take a shower, go grocery shopping, eat, and eat. Well maybe I did do everything but Ms. Cherry caught my drift and persuaded me to go home.
Now I'm sitting in my car parked in Avery's driveway willing myself to start my car.

I look up and see Avery and Ms. Cherry staring at me with one eyebrow raised. Eva and Alla left early in the morning for business. I frown at them and push the start button on my car. I waved one final goodbye, put my car in reverse, and pulled out onto the road. Parents, here I come.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I pull up to my driveway and something automatically feels wrong. I'm getting a weird vibe from my house. I grab my phone and bag from my car and walk up the steps to unlock the door. I look down and my hands are shaking. I back away from the door and walk next door to Roman's house.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Roman swung open the door yelling, "Who the fu-"
I pushed him inside before he could make any more noise. He kept yelling and asking questions but I ignored him and dragged him down the hall to where his room was. I pulled him inside and locked the door.

"K, what is going on! Why where you banging on my door like a sumasshedshiy person! And then dragging me all over my house!" He just kept yelling.

I took a deep breath and said softly, "Something bad is going to happen today if I go home." I covered my face with my hands took long breaths. I've always had a strong intuition and I'm never wrong. Roman didn't say anything for what seems like a long time; I almost thought he left the room. I felt him come close to me. He took my hands off my face and pulled them to my sides but not letting them go. I looked up and he was staring at me with such compassion in his eyes it completely took me off guard.

"Lyublyu, today might be hectic but I promise you nothing bad will happen to you." He told me while looking at me.

I felt him move his hands to the small of my back and pull me closer to him. I caught on to what he said 'today might be hectic'... meaning something is going to happen today. See, I'm always right. My mind started to race a mile a minute. I started to lose myself in thoughts until I felt him grab my face and pulled it so close to his. I close my eyes just waiting for him to kiss me.

When he did, I instinctively wrapped my arms around his neck. At this moment he felt like a breath of fresh air. I pulled him closer and I feel out of touch with reality. I honestly have no self-control with him and now I'm realizing that I'm starting to trust him to fix things. I felt myself being pulled somewhere in the room. Then I felt Roman sit on his bed and drag me on his lap all while not breaking the kiss. Whew! Lmao, where did the old me go? I feel like I just flung all of my common sense out the window and ran out the back door dived headfirst down a cliff. K FOCUS!

On that mental note, I slightly pulled my face away from him and kept my eyes closed. I felt his breath on my face and It smelt like strawberries. I guess he was eating before I interrupted him. He pulled me in closer towards him and he rested his head on my shoulder. Now I can semi-think. He said today might be hectic but why? You need to ask him duh! Sometimes I don't like the attitude I give myself.

"Roman, about today....I-" I started asking.

"Just don't worry your pretty little head about today, okay." He interrupted.
