In Memory

Chapter 3: Chinese Restaurant

It's been a few weeks since Aubrey's mom died, they couldn't go to the funeral because the cops said it would be too dangerous, that the men that killed her would still be there looking for Aubrey. Neither her or her dad has heard anything about them catching the gang known as The Unmarked Ones, the officers did say they were crafty. So it probably will take them a while for the police to catch up. Aubrey has refused to leave her room, not even to go to the new school her dad enrolled her in. She's too scared. "Honey, you gotta go to school today or their gonna make us go to court." Her father threatened calmly through the door. No response just a trail of fake snores. Her dad sighs and turns towards Elias.

 He always managed to find a way to cheer her up whenever she's like this so her dad was hoping him out of all her friend could most likely get her to go to school again. "Go ahead and try" he gestured to the door as Elias took a deep breath, getting himself mentally ready for what he's about to walk in on. He pressed a button on his phone and kicked the door open. The phone played a beat as he started rapping terribly. "My name is Elias and I'm here to say, you think your gonna stay in bed all day, well let me say to you my cheesy temptress, that its time to get off that fucking mattress!" He climbed on her bed and started jumping to the rhythm. "Or what?" Aubrey narrowed her eyes at him. 

"My name is Elias and I'm here to say-" He started repeating his little rap because he didn't prepare anymore lyrics. Aubrey groaned into her pillow as she hid under her blanket. Elias continued his little song and dance as he ripped the blanket from her revealing her bunny printed pajamas. He grabbed her arm and pulled her to her feet.

 Though she did put up a fight. Aubrey grabs a pillow and tries to smother his annoying song. He tosses the pillow out of his face and picks her up bridal style. "I swear to god if you throw me off this bed-" "Oh please your little threats don't scare me" Elias jumps off the bed and struggles to carry her to the bathroom.

 He sets her down in the bathtub and before she could run away he turns on the cold water all the way. She shrieks, jumping out of the tub in her wet Pj's. Elias laughs so hard he lets out a snort. "Are you awake now?" He gives her a couple of finger guns and a wink. Aubrey was fuming, she came running at him but he dashes out the door and closes it shut. "Your not coming out till you take a shower, smelly butt!" He teased childishly as he held the door closed. "Fine! Jesus Christ!" She shouts through the door in a huff.

 "That's a sweet title and all but I prefer to be called the all knowing Elias" He flexed his nonexistent muscles, not realizing the only one that was there to see was her father. About half an hour later the water stops and she opens the door a crack. "I need a towel and some clothes" At this point her father was already gone for work so it was up Elias to gather her quest items. He walked in her room and grabbed what he thought went together like when he's painting his figurines. He grabbed a yellow blouse and some black skinny jeans but now was time for the troubling task of picking out her underwear. He peaked into her top drawer and he found the jackpot of undies.

 "Elias? What's taking so long?" Aubrey started to get paranoid that he was snooping through all of her shit. "Just finding the right color that matches your eyes" He said with a fake lisp. Aubrey rolled her eyes as she waited patiently. Elias knocked on the door as she opened it a crack, sticking her hand out. He plops it into her hands and she quickly closes the door. Shortly after she looks through what he brought her she growls lowly when she sees the underwear he brought her. Red, silky, and matching, bra and panties. 

She felt a little weird knowing that he knew what kind of underwear she was wearing but there was really no time to change it. She stepped out of the bathroom only to see Elias waiting for her in her bedroom. "Finally your ready, lets go!" He does a little jig before making his way outside as Aubrey follows. "You remember how this goes" He said patting the metal bar on his bike. Aubrey sighed in defeat as she climbed on the metal bar with her feet hiked up. Elias snickered to himself as he watched Aubrey struggle to get comfortable with a metal bar up her ass. They make it to about a block away from school when he stops. "You might want to get off" He avoids eye contact. "Why? You ashamed of being seen with me?" Aubrey said jokingly. "On the contrary my friend, it is you who should be ashamed of me" He said in one of his funny voices so it didn't sound that serious.
