Demi Owens [A Legend Fanfiction]

Chapter 19

(I only own Demi and her storyline! I don't own any gifs or pictures I put into this fanfiction!) 

~~~~~~

All of these passing days just blur together. 

I mean, Tess, Day, June, and I, all just wander the streets, look out for candidates to steal from and pickpocket, and then sell the goods we stole to gain more money.

It's just that. Every day so far. 

Although, with this endless cycle going on, I have been finding myself getting closer to June. She's pretty nice, and very pretty. Her long dark brown hair that she puts up in a high ponytail, her dark eyes and underneath all of that dirt on her face- I bet she'll look like one of those teen models that live in the rich sectors. She could be the face of a rich company even. 

She seems to be Day's age, but then again, she never actually told us anything about her- I only know her name.  

June is very observant, and those eyes hold so much more to what she's displaying. She's smart, very intelligent, and holds so much knowledge and skills you won't come across here in the poor sectors. 

She's a fighter- a warrior, she can handle a knife pretty well, and knows how to use one. One time, she even threw a knife I pick-pocketed for her across the market and into a hot dog on a market stand. 

Scared the old man behind the crooked table so greatly that he literally screamed like a siren, and then fainted on the hard concrete of the sidewalk.  

That gave all of us a great laugh alright, and the hot dog was also very appetizing.

June's fun to be around so far, and I'm starting to find myself trusting her even more whenever I talk and hangout with her. It's confusing though- on how I'm trusting her so easily. Normally I wouldn't even talk- or even look at, newcomers that we find and help for a while, but with her, it's just different... 

She's just like a new edition to our little 'street gang,' our family. 

She just caught my interest, and because of that, I'm starting to treat her as a best friend- I would say. Maybe not as close as a sister like Tess, but a very close friend almost. 

I find myself at nights where I wake up to one of those horrid nightmares about my family, and friend's deaths, and that shadowy figure that puts me on edge, and I talk to her about it. She looks very interested and listens intently about what I tell her about these dreams and visions. 

I actually did end up telling her about these voices about finding something, or from what the voice says, 'find me.' She didn't get spooked out or anything, and thought that I was not sane like I thought she would. She just sat there next to me, concerned- yes, but also intrigued, which I found odd, but I just let it be at the time. 

I'm surprised that I told a stranger, I somewhat just met, what's going on in my mind, and what I'm witnessing some nights. I didn't even tell Day, my brother, and Tess, my sister, about everything that's going on- but I told June, a girl I don't know. 

It's fine I guess. I do see her sticking around for longer than a while. 

Plus, Day seems to actually like her. Not like 'like' her, but like 'like like' her.  

Like a crush... 

I'm not complaining about him liking someone, especially when he probably wants to actually get 'serious' with her, I guess. Won't be surprised if I catch them kissing, or in an intimate moment. 

Tess, although, doesn't seem to like what's going on between the two from what I'm seeing. Don't get me wrong, Tess likes June, and is warming up to her like how I am, but she seems almost- distant, I guess that's the right word, when she sees June and Day together.
