The Deadly Five

chapter 8

  
    My shift is finally is over. No more customers complaining about ever little thing. Plus I can finally get away from Jared. He keeped saying how me and the sour patch of a boy would be such a cute couple. How he can't wait  to see our babies, and how hot they will look. I just tried to ignore him. But you know those people that you just can't ignore and you just so badlly want to punch in the face , yeah that how i am with Jared.
   He was just so happy that there is a guy in my life. I mean i dont look like lonely do I ? Oh! Who am i kidding I look sad and lonely all the time. Even i know that. I mean I'm like a pea in a pod with out another pea. Wow! ok i feel depressed now. And I know I don't need a guy to feel happy its just I want someone to ask if I am ok you know ????
   Anyways i can't wait to get home and go to sleep i know that its only 4:30 and well its kinda early but i don't care. i will sleep intill i have to wake up for work tomorrow. Or maybe read a book. Yeah that sounds better.
    i finally see my very humble home. HAHA. More like ruin down home. With no waiting for me or anyone to cuddle with. Dang just got more depressing.
   i go into my apartment and change into my very comfortable ugly looking clothes. It is a white tank top that has many coffee, food, and myserious stains on it form who knows what and form when. I am wearing some shorts to match that are black and way to short but hey they are very comfortable. i am wearing no show socks which are my favoite kind of socks to wear. They make me feel like a ballerina, i know dumb right ? i never said that that i was smart.
     I throw my hair in a quick mess bun and put on my glasses. Yes I wear glass, only when I need to cause I hate how I look. Yes I know soo chiche but hey it's the truth. And i am kinda getting a headache.
    I grab my book form the dresser. I am reading Shadowhunters by Cassia Clare. Jace is about to find out that Clare is not i repeat not her brother so they can finally be together. Omg! Spoiler Alert. Kinda late to say that sorry not sorry. I just love reading their story it my fifth time reading.
     I go to the living room and curl up in the couch to read. I get a good chuck done before I hear a knocking at the door. Its around 6 at night, who the heck is that i have no friends. Wow depressed again. Jk. Not really.
  I go and open the door to see who is here and when i open the door i am suprised. Slade and all of his gang is here.
  " Wow hit stuff, if you are going to invite someone over for dinner than you should at least put on some decent clothes." Say Double D ( Chase)
   "Oh haha i totally forgot, I never invite people over. umm let me get change really quick. Yall can make yall self at home. "
" wow what did you do to her Slade she a totally different person. Plus that's just sad and depressing. "
    Tell me about it. I run to my room and change to some more appropriate. I ended up finding some jeans and a basic t-shirt that says "my days start at noon." I make sure my face doesn't look to bad and head out to the rest of the group.
    When I go back to the living room I am greeted with Slade siting on the couch with his arms cross like he hates being here. But his eyes tell another story they say how good it feels to be inside a warm apartpartmet, watching his friends having a good time. Its nice to see him like this to see that deep down he is just a human and not some human shield all the time.
    Sam is sitting done on the floor reading the book i was reading and she is really getting into it. Her eyes are lighing up and is enjoying the escape of the real world, not having to worry about all the proablems that come with being human.
    Double D and Leon were fighting over what to watch. They are just like little kids and to be honest i like seeing them like this. It reminds me of the good time in the foster care. If you can believe that they were good times. The times when you are with your faster sbilings and you can just relax without worring about the foster parents coming to "teach" you a lesson.
    " Come on Chase, i want to watch The BIg Bang Theory not SponeBob. You always get to watch your stupid shows i want to watch a good for show for once"
" You and those stupid shows I don't want to watch the The Big Bang Theory, you are so much like that one dude who is all werid and shit"
  " Well i want to watch The Big Bang Theory, Double D. So suck it up" I say while chucking. Because I mainly picked that to get on his nerves.
  " Dang of course you choose your best friend." i must have had a confused on my face beccause Chase say " oh yess sweetheart, we know you and you BFF Leon have been texting all the time."
" Dang heartbreaker you have to break my heart and go tell them about us." I say with a wink. Slade makes a face and Sam just laughs. "and Double D you ever calll me sweetheart again i will bring back out that bat and i will use it you understand '
    " Gosh baby girl you are just mean to me"
    " I swear i have more than one bat,"
     " ok gosh." says chase while raising his hands up in surrender.
" Sorry dinner is not cooked already, i forgot that yall were coming over and got distracted"
" Aww Sunshine if you did not what us to be here you did not have to invite us" Slade teastes me.  But underneath that there is a hint of hurt i must be imaging things.
" oh whatever, Sour Patch Kid. I am going to start on dinner, and since my stupid self forgot that i invite people over for dinner. I did not go to the store so Spaggttii will have to do, I hope yall are ok with that."
   They all said that was more than fine. They what to go to the kitchen with me while i cooked but i told them that they did not need to, and to enjoy watching TV. 
     So i went to the kitchen alone to get the food cook. i put the water to boil and started to cook the meat. i put my earphones in and started to listen to my music. Because i can not cook when it's just quiet. Thats like putting your milk before your cereal, pinneapple on pizza, or hot cheetos in a bowl of a milk. If you do it than you are definitely a serial killer there is no agrument no ifs or buts. Just kidding. Not really.
    Than one of my faviote song Diamonds by Sam Smith comes on and than there is no stoping me form dancing. So while i am putting the noddles into the boiling water. i do a couple of spins and when i stop I get dizzy and than my stupid self trips.
But i never feel the pain of the cool hard floor.
" Wow Sunshine if you wanted to be in my arms all you had to do was ask" ( gosh she is so cute ).
   Wait is he thinking about me, I mean i am the only girl in here but it could be an echo thought. I hate echo thoughts. I mean i know everone has that one memory or thought that they will randomly think, but still they confuse me.
     ( i could hold her all day. What are you thinking Slade you bearly know this girl. You should not be having these thoughts yet. I mean i can't just ask her to tell me every little serect she has. Wait how long i have a been holding her. It feels just like a couple of mintues but i don't know she's not moving she is just looking at me weridly. Oh Gosh! is there something on my face. Now I am just  being werid, wait can't she read minds is she reading my thoughts right now. Fuck! That would be bad.)
       I slam the wall around my mind because the poor guy was dying there.
     " Thats all ?"  I finally replay to his question.
      " Huh?"
    " your question, is all i have to do is ask ?"
     " Ooooooo.....well...i.i was ......"
      " joking yeah i know, I am just kidding. So what are you doing in here, and not out there with your family"
      " Family?"
      " I mean that's what you are no? I mean yall seem to be very close and there for each other. "
        " Oh, Yeah we are a family, in a weird and complicated way" He looks toward the living room with a smile on his face and watchs his group of friends sit and laugh and just enjoy each other's time together.
        " well at least you have one " I say. I turn around and sir the noodles which are about to be done. He is lucky in a way, he may have lost his brother but at least he has some memories with him, and than got another family though his friends.
     While me on the other hand has more memories of her dad telling that she has to be better, do better, and my personal favorite your doing it wrong.                 Plus all the memories of every foster home that has abused me and used me for the little money they receive.                    I try not to think about what has happen when i was entered into the foster care but when you are reminded of what you don't have, its hard. I want to be happy for them, they have a home with each other.
       But i am not going to lie i am jealous. I want a family, i want someone to bicker and fight with but at the end of the day know that that person or people will still be there at the end of the day. I guess thats not in the cards for me.
      " Oh hahaha" I can tell that Slade doesn't know how to react to what is just said so he fakes laugh and just looks so akward.
       " Your Good Sour Patch Kid"
       " will you ever tell me why you nicknamed me that ?"
       " Maybe one day"
       " Well i am looking forward to that day than."
        " Well i am looking forward to that day when you ask me all my sercets " I say with a smirk on my face and turn to wink at him.
  I look at Slade who looks like he might just have a heart attack. Which made me laugh so hard because i never seen Slade anthing but glaring at me. I walk to the living room leaving him to gather himself .
    When i get in the room I see Chase and Sam throwing punches and see as Sam is winning i want to say something but than agian i am hungry.
    " Chase will you stop we all know that you are losing and losing bad to Sam so how aout we just go get a plate and eat aleady."
     " Oh food!  Have fun fighting yourself Chase I am going to get me some fooood"
   We make our way to the to the kitchen to make our plates. I notice that Slade has already made his plate and is sitting down at the table and had gone back to his sour patch mood. which I am not surpirsed he doesn't want me to know that he cares which i do know. Ever since i turned off reading minds my brain decide to be able to read emotion.
     So while I might not be able to hear what he is thinking I can kinda get read off him he just soo closed off soo it harder to read him
    We all sit at the table and begin eating, laughing and talking. Which felt good to have someone to share a meal with.
