The Troubled Soul (Volume 1)

Chapter 24: Making Moves on A Certain Ginger.

~November 30th, 2:37PM~

Mr. Jackal, Sam, and Violet were getting ready to leave. It was the next day Josh had woken up. They were getting ready to leave so they could get supplies for the party they were going to do.

Everybody else didn't want to go, so they decided to stay. Josh was already done and was ready to leave. He was patiently waiting on the couch in the living room. While he was waiting, he couldn't help but feel really hyper. Rose was sitting next to him on the couch because she wanted to spend some time with him before he left.

He didn't know why he felt really hyper, but he felt like he couldn't stay still. He started lightly swinging his legs back and forth while dwindling his fingers. He decided to ask Ms. Jerel or Mr. Jackal why he couldn't sit still later.

Josh was wearing a pair of white underwear, white socks, a white t-shirt, a gray jacket with white outlines, a pair of blue jeans, a belt with a gray buckle, a pair of brown Nike shoes, and a pair of gray gloves to hide his symbols. Mr. Jackal had suggested Josh would look better in white and gray clothes, considering he has porcelain skin and ginger hair.

His mind started racing with thoughts. Rose was now eight years old, and Violet was still seven years old. Rose's birthday was November the 1st. Violet's birthday was February the 7th. So Rose was older than both of them.

Then his mind started thinking to what Rose said, back when they were talking about the world.

He didn't want the world to be like that. He wanted everybody to be happy. He wanted to see everybody smile, laugh, and be friends. He wanted nothing but happiness for everybody, that's all he wanted. He knew he would have to work really hard for it, and that it was nearly impossible. But he didn't care, he decided he would make everybody happy, no matter what it took.

That's when he heard his friends and Mr. Jackal walk into the living room.

Mr. Jackal: Come on Josh, we're all ready to go.

He saw Mr. Jackal was wearing a light brown leather jacket, light brown boots, dark blue jeans, and a white t-shirt. He looked pretty good, and his tan skin just made him look even better in his outfit.

Violet was wearing a light blue dress with blue flower spots on it which stopped at her knees, white socks, a pretty light blue bow in her hair, and light blue shoes. She looked beyond beautiful, and Josh felt his cheeks heat up when he looked at her, but he didn't know why.

Then he remembered what Scarlet had told him about blushing. He still didn't quite understand what she meant, but he knew it happened to somebody who felt nervous around somebody.

{Aura: Will you stop blushing? You're making us look too nice.}

Josh then got up and walked to Violet, still blushing.

Josh: You look really nice Violet.

Then she began to blush do to Josh telling her she looked nice. Rose just watched from the couch, even she had to admit she found Josh really cute when he blushed. He was even cuter when he flirted with her and Violet and he didn't even know what flirting is. But she was jealous that he had called Violet nice and not her...but then she got an idea, and smirked.

Violet: T-Thanks, you look really nice too.

Mr. Jackal noticed them, and he smiled. He found them really cute together, then he got an idea.

Mr. Jackal: Hey Josh and Violet.

Josh: Yeah?

Violet: Yes?

Mr. Jackal: Well, there is a lot of stuff at the store, so maybe you two could go and find something cool.

Josh: Okay.
