The Mistake | Colby Brock

Chapter Eighteen- Mistake

Jordan's pov
We walked down, Colby in front of me while we hopped down. "Heyyyy Colby whats u-" from what seems like Brennen his eyes left Colbys and down to mine, scanning my body as his eyes followed my 'curves' up to my eyes again. Colby cleared his throat. "Sorry um, who's the bonita?" Brennen asked Colby but his eyes never left my body. I felt Colby tense up in front of me and i laid my hand on his shoulder. This time i cleared my throat. "You mind making eye contact? This isn't very appropriate." I snapped my fingers in his face. As i grinned. It was fun making fun of Brennen,  his green/hazel eyes glistened in the light as his  brown hair swayed from side to side as he shook his head. "Oopsie, can't help but look at beautiful girls? Where you from?" I was about to explode with fury but Colby spoke up for me. "Brennen stop flirting already, it's getting old seeing you act like a high school frat boy." His cocky smile faded as a sweet one appeared. "Sorry, i couldn't get ahold of myself, i'm Brennen as you already know. Do you.. know about us?" "Huh?" I asked dumbfounded. "What do you mean about you guys? Unless you guys are in a cult no i don't really know." He glanced at Colby and Colby looked at me and leaned into my ear. "He means about the gifted part. He's kinda a show off, so how do we tell him you're a badass without making it seem like he's that much of an idiot." He whispered as i giggled. "Like this." I whispered back as i flashed away from the boys. "What the?" Brennen looked around him and i popped behind him, tapping his shoulder. "Hiya!" He yelped and i laughed and left his vision once again. "Okay! i get it you have teleportation!" I sprung in front of him, making him jump back. "Oh that's not all." Colby said as he winked at me. I held my hand out in front of brennen. My small figure next to his. He hesitantly went to grab it but at the last second i made a small blue force field around my hand, shocking him. "What in the world?" I closed my eyes and made a forcefield around only Brennen. "I wouldn't touch it if i were you, it's almost impossible it get out." I laughed as he struggled. Colby was next to me now as he whispered into my ear once again. "Pretend thats all you got until Brenn shows you his." I nodded and let go of Brennen. He dusted himself off and looked at me. "I'm impressed, my turn?" i nodded and he looked away and to the ground. It started to shake as i saw vines from the floor, wind blew, water come from outside, and he snapped his fingers as a flame appeared on his finger tips. I gasped as he opened his hand showing a blood red rose. "I can control the four elements, call me avatar." He winked. "What?" I accepted the rose but looked at him with curiosity. "You don't know who avatar is?" I shook my head. "Have you been living under a rock?!" He yelled normally that would scare someone but i wasn't effected by it. "Well i mean yeah." I laughed and he looked confused. "Anyway um what do you need, Brenn? We kinda have some work i planned on doing." Colby asked breaking the silence. Work? No one told me about work. "Oh um right, the kid, Jake signed him out of the hospital today, he's actually in the car as we speak." Kid? Oh wait, Elliot. "Elliot?" I asked. "I think that's his name, or what he goes by, his real name is James." I nodded. "James... that sounds familiar. Can i go see him?" "Only if you wear these." I heard Jakes voice from behind Brennen and i looked at him curiously. He was holding rusty handcuffs, i'm guessing they're made of iron. I rolled my eyes and looked at Colby, hoping he would help but he never met my gaze. "C'mon Jake, she's been here for a while now i think we can trust her. She's been on a mission before and if she wanted to leave she could. You know that." Colbys eyes were burning through Jakes. "It's a precaution. Stop trying to compel me Brock." Seriously? Was Colby that dumb to try that? Jake laughed as he nodded at me. I just glared at him and held my wrists out. I just noticed that Brennen went to the driveway, probably with the kid or something. Colby stood in front of me as he cuffed my hands together. "Sorry princess i didn't chose this." i rolled my eyes and met his gaze, showing no emotion. "I'm not your 'princess' Brock." I shoved past him and to the door where Jake showed me out. He placed his hand on my back but i jerked away rolling my eyes "don't ever touch me unless i allow you to, unless you want to lose an eye or two of course." Jake lifted his hands in defense "jeez sorry was just trying to help." I snapped back facing him. "THIS" i showed my hands, "isn't helping. You're making me ever more of a burden than i already am!" Everyone was looking at me now as Colby... fucking Colby was next to me now. "You're not a burden J, we-" I couldn't do this it was pushing me over the edge. "Of course you're here right now Colby, can i breath?! Leave me alone for once. You guys mysteriously take me, i still don't know why to this day, act all sweet and shit and when i push you away you come crawling back. Now you, Colby, do whatever the fuck that was upstairs and act like everything's normal? I don't get you guys i really don't. If i wanted to leave i can. But for once i felt hope here that i never had, but you guys are like everyone else. You put up a shitty act to make yourself look like a better person. Now can i please get a second to live every once and a while?" Colby looked mad. Why does he get to be mad all the time but when i say one thing he blows up. "That thing that happened upstairs, whatever you want to call it now, it was a mistake." The words left his mouth and i left my heart drop to the floor. I refused to show i was weak though. "What?" I said coldly. "You heard me, it. was. a. mistake. Get it through that hard ass skull of yours." I felt my eyes swell with tears as i blinked they fell down my cheek. I saw Colbys face soften as he looked like he regretted saying that. I didn't care. Obviously he didn't either. "Whatever." I said as i pulled my arms apart, breaking the handcuffs as they fell from my hands. "I don't even care anymore. I could've left this whole time but i chose not to. Colby Brock," i looked into his eyes. "Fuck you." More tears left my face as i teleported out of the driveway and into my room. Slamming my door in the process as i locked the door. I cried in my pillow thinking about how Colbys lips felt on mine. Like a cloud of happiness. I thought about how Tara spent a whole day shopping for me as she ran back and forth finding the right size for me. I thought about how Corey would joke around about how sexual it was to be in so many chains as once. I thought about how Devyn used me as practice for her new makeup. Or how Aaron taught me how to feed buddy treats. Or when the whole gang taught me how to play Monopoly and they got mad because i was naturally good at it. Kevin's moments, Griffins, everyone's, meant nothing. They were just putting up and act to get me not to stay. Little did they know i actually felt something for all of them. Especially Colby, guess it was a mistake. Everything was.
