~BECKY POV~
When I woke in the morning, Toby was lying in the most stupid position EVER! I couldn't help but take a picture and upload it to INSTAGRAM!! After that I shook him awake. "wakey wakey sleepyhead" I say, shaking him more. He starts to slowly wake up and rub the sleep out of his eyes.
(I can be bothered to do Toby's stutter, so just pretend there is one #lazy)
"Huh? Oh morning Becky" he said, smiling and yawning.
"Come on! day one of me staying here and living in America!"
"Uuuuugh whyyyyyyy?"
"Because I'm a bitch and your guest." I laughed, he chuckled and swung his legs over the side of the bed, and stood up.
"Same arrangements as last time?"
"Sure, lust don't fall down any stairs this time ok?"
"N-no promises." he said, and left the room with his clothes. I locked the door behind him and started changing, hoping that Mr. Rodgers wouldn't beat them today. That's another thing, how am I going to tell Toby that I saw all of that? Tell him directly, or just 'walk in' on it. I was suddenly interrupted by a knock on the door "Becky? You decent?"
"Almost, hang on a sec" I finished pulling on my shirt then I opened the door. "didn't fall down any stairs today?"
"No." he chuckled lightly, then sat down on his bed. "so, what ya wanna do?"
"Uuuuum, go to town?"
"I got my allowance the other day, which means I got I ton of cash!"
"Great! so town it is?"
"I guess so" I squeal then run down the stairs to get breakfast. Lyra and Mrs. Rodgers were already there.
"Morning Lyra, morning Mrs. Rodgers." I say, walking into the kitchen.
"Please, call me Connie." Said Mrs. Rodgers, handing me a plate with some food on it.
"Thanks Connie." I smiled at her then sat at the table next to Lyra. She smiled as I started to eat my pre-cooked breakfast. Waffles. Toby came down shortly after, running up to Connie, kissing her cheek and taking a plate of waffles "thank Mom" he said, sitting besides me. Both of our plates were clean within 10 minutes.
"You two were hungry."
"I love waffles" Me and Toby both say at the same time. We all started laughing as Mr. Rodgers came down the stairs.
"Well, well, well. Why is everybody laughing?"
"Me and Toby said the same thing at the same time." I say fearlessly. He can't hurt me.
"Oh? and what did you say?"
"I love waffles" we both said again, and we both laughed lightly.
"Right. Ok. what did I say abou-"
"Not here please. Not with a guest here." Asked Connie, trying to calm down her husband.
"Sorry! guess I got a little carried away huh?" He chuckled lightly, and I fake a small laugh, knowing what this man does to his own family.
"It's ok, Mr. Rodgers." I say to him, giving him a smile "everybody does it every now-and-again" I heard a small growl from Toby as I said that, probably from hatred for his father.
"Come on Toby. Shall we get going?" I ask, trying to change the subject.
"Yea, lemme get my cash and shoes on, I'll meet you outside." Toby said in a low tone, looking down at the table. I stand up and pull on my shoes, I run upstairs to get my phone, only to see Toby crying.
"Toby what's wrong?!" I ask, closing the door and running up to Toby.
"Becky! I-I'm fine" he said, tryin to wipe away most of his tears.
"No, your not fine, your crying." I hug him, and he hugs back, crying into my shoulder. "now what's wrong Toby?"
"It's just, well, my father, he bea-"
"He beats you i know." I cut him off, sighing. He pulled away and looked at me.
"H-how did you know?"
"I saw last night, I walked down stairs and saw him beating you. I didn't wanna worry you, so I didn't say anything."
"I-im sorry you had to see that"
"It's ok. Now, you need to get cleaned up and ready for our trip downtown!" I said, with a small giggle. He wiped his eye and chuckled, standing up and giving me one last hug.
"Thanks Becky."
"Anytime Toby!" I say with a smile. I pick up my phone and wait in the hallway for Toby, he came out with a clean face, then walked into his bedroom, picked up his wallet and put on his shoes, then walked back out again.
"Let's get going then!" he said and offered his arm, I took hold of it as we walked down the stairs and out of the front door, down the street, into town.
We went into a sweet shop, clothes shop, arcade, bakery and a café last, it was around 5 pm when we had finished and started walking back home.
"Today was amazing! I loved it!"
"It was a ton of fun."
I walked hanging onto his arm and nobody was home when we got back.
"Looks like we have the house to ourselves then!" I say giggling, we walk in and drop the stuff we bought off into our room, then walked into the front room and started watching TV.
It was around 6:30 when Lyra, Connie and Mr. Rodgers came back.
"Sorry we left without you love, but you left your phone here an I don't have Becky's phone number. But I can order a pizza for you to have in your room if you want?" asked Connie. Me and Toby nodded our heads then Connie smiled and picked up the phone to call for a pizza. When it arrived, me and Toby took it upstairs and just watched Markiplier on his computer, then we just got changed and went to our beds.
The next couple of weeks were the best ever, Toby and Lyra are now my best friends. Thankfully Mr. Rodgers didn't beat any of them, as far as I know. But it didn't last long until my parents came back and I went home. It felt a little weird, the Rodgers house was my home for a little while. For the three months that I stayed there, it was home.
But it's over now. Next up:
School.
