2021-05-13 04:00:17It’s Saturday and I’m out for a morning jog.
My need for a boxing gym has doubled.
“Danielle” I hear a familiar voice call and I slow down
“Danny” I groan, rolling my eyes.
“Good morning to you too” he says sardonically.
“About the gym though...” I start, halting in my track.
“We could go today” he suggests and I nod eagerly.
“In say thirty minutes?” I offer, giving his non-workout outfit a disapproving glance.
“Sure” And then he’s gone.
I’ve been avoiding the topic of ‘The Truth’ he told me about because I just don’t think I’m ready to face it.
I know running away from or in my case, avoiding your problems is never the right thing to do but I’m sure whoever came up with that saying didn’t just find out about their past lives or met a awesome human who’s apparently lived centuries.
So, here, avoiding the topic really does seem like the right thing to do.
Jamie...bless him...probably sensed how uncomfortable that

Flashback(10 Years Ago)I hear the front door open and close.Mommy’s home.Chowders sound asleep. He stopped crying a while ago, I think he feels better.Quickly, I grab my test off the table and sprint down the stairs.“Good Evening, mommy” I beam, my smile so wide that my jaw begins to hurt soon.Mommy just nods in acknowledgment as she starts taking off her shoes.“I got a high score on my Math test today” I inform, proudly holding up my B-minus“A B-minus?” She huffs in disbeliefMy smile wavers. I had hoped she was going to be at least a little bit happy but no such luck. A huge lump forms in my throat and I chew my bottom lip, it’s all I can do to not break out in tears.“Come on, D

Sweating profusely in the middle of the night when normal people are sleeping...but the thing is I'm not normal...no, I'm far from normal but you know, it wasn't always like this...**Punch...Punch...Punch**I punch the punching bag I had installed in my room...with all my strength I punch it...thinking about how I used to be...before I became this mess...Flashback"So, What does my little princess want for breakfast?" My dad smiled up at me, me sitting on the kitchen counter smiling back at him "Dad, I'm not a little kid anymore, you can't keep calling me your little princess" I said to him and he frowned"Dad? No more daddy" "Yes, dad, that's what the older kids call her their daddy""But, you're still a little girl, Shorty" he said making me smile...he loved calling me Shorty and I loved hearing him call me thatBec

I walk into the kitchen to find my mom rinsing a glass by the sink and I just ignore and act like I didn't see her.I take my cereal and pour it into a bowl before adding the milk...all the while feeling her eyes on me but if there's anything I'm really good at it's awkward silence.Totally ignoring her, I finished my cereal and washed out my bowl and was just about to leave when she spoke "Really, Danielle¿ Not even a good morning?"And that stopped me right in front of the door and without turning to face her, I mumble a "Good Morning, mom" before taking another step to leave"Danielle..." she started but I cut her off "it's a beautiful day, mom, let's not ruin it?" I say in a question-like way with a fake ass smile but she wouldn't just leave it like that

"She was grieving, Danny""Think about it, if you did this just for your mom, you could've asked to be the smartest kid in school or have psychic powers or something more normal but you are crazy, Danielle Sanchez. Crazy is you. You and Crazy are one""Cherish your mom while you still have her, Danny"Beth's words keep ringing in my head."You could've asked to be the smartest kid in school"I groan

"Morning, mom" I beam as I watch her come down the stairs "I made breakfast"I came down earlier to cook breakfast."I noticed" she smiled and came over to give me a hug "Morning, Shorty""Looks good" she complimented, taking a seat."Yeah, right, that's just something you have to say" I say dismissively."I won't say it looks good if it doesn't look good, Danielle, you know me" she says slowly.

Today, we graduate high school.And I'm not going-well, I don't want to go but I don't think Beth is having that.She's currently ransacking my cupboard for something suitable for me to wear."Beth, just drop it, I'm not going" I groan for the nth time"Alright, give me one good reason for that silly decision" she turned to me for the first time since she started her mission."Silly?" I laugh

"Is there a particular reason for your decision or did you just..." Mom trails off.She's currently sitting on my bed, trying really hard to calmly understand why I'm refusing to further my education.But what can I tell her?'I met an alien 9 years ago, made a sick wish and now I'm not normal which is mostly the reason why I wanted to hate you so much'I don't think that will sit in well so I just stay quiet.She runs her hand through her hair for the nth time in exaspe

I unlock the door to my apartment with a wide a*s grin because that’s what Jamie does to you-makes you smile so much your jaw hurts.Just as I throw my bag down and my butt connects with the couch, an incoming video call from Beth pops up on the Mac Pro which I left powered on the table.Quickly, I accept it, wishing this damn grin off my face as I sit on the floor right in front of the table.“Hey, stranger” she beams“Hello, beautiful stranger” I respond, grinning like a fool.“Someone looks happy” she smiles“I think I am” I reply, suddenly remembering to ask her “Beth, did you by any chance tell Brit what I like to have for dessert?”“No” she squints her eyes “Why?”“Nothing important” I shrug “I was just wondering”“More than 10 years, Danny” she stares impassively at me and I frown in confusion before she continues “...and you still think I don’t know when you’re lying? Spit it out”“What?” I go for nonchalance

The last time this happened we spent a night in jail.His words float over us as we stare each other in the eyes.Jamie breaks the silence "No...Uh...I mean, the last time I um...had faith in a woman's driving skills"It's obvious he's lying and usually I'll let it go but not this time- it's been three long months of constant lies and I'm sick of it.For some odd reason though, it kinda hurts that he doesn't trust me enough to tell me the truth."Okay, I guess this is happening now" I whisper and turn my focus back to driving- except I don't go home, I pull over to the side of the road."What is?" He breathes."You're telling me the truth, the whole truth" I unstrap my seatbelt and turn to face him."What truth?" He go

High school graduate, it’s annoying.“Anybody?” Jack pleads
Jinxed By Me ~16-Who Are You, Jamie¿~
It's been a while since I last went to a gym and something feels really off."Hey, Britney" I greet as Brit comes into view."Hello" she beams "went for a morning jug, I see""Yeah...and you're going out?" I ask"Yeah, school""Oh ok, have fun" I say in a goodbye bid."The only fun thing about school is my Music Teacher" she winks."Oh..um, Brit..where can I find a boxing gym around here?" I ask, remembering my need for a gym."A boxing gym? What do you need that for?" Her brows furrow."Uh..boxing?" I give her a weird look."You box?" She looks vaguely surprised.I hum in response before adding "...and wrestle, fight Kung fu, a little bit of karate""Wow, I would hate to have been David that night" she jokes."As much as he des

"Well, tell us all about it" says Beth while Brit stares, both of their eyes wide with excitement."Why are you guys so amused? It went badly, the guy was an a*s and you're never making me do that again" I mutter, wanting to frown but I can't keep this I'm not hella mad at you guys right now"Beth rolls her eyes "So you regret going?""Yes" I answer too quickly to be believed.I actually don't regret going-I mean, I hated the date, that arrogant d**k who was going to drug me and basically the whole night, except the part where Jamie arrived.
Jinxed By Me ~14-Jamie's Here~
We arrive at a good looking house-but it's not my house so I don't really care.The car comes to a halt right at the entrance and the engine quiets down with a flourish-it's a nice car."Where did you bring me?" I ask the rich snub with a calmness I'm definitely not feeling."My house" he smiles confidentlyI want nothing but to slap that sick smile off his face."Why did you bring me to your house?" I turn to face him with the fakest smile.
Jinxed By Me ~13-Date Night~
"Come on, Danny" Brit whines"No" I say simply, making sure to keep my face void of any emotion."I really think you should try it, Danny" Beth says thoughtfully from the screen of my Mac-book.I groan.It was honestly a terrible idea to introduce Beth to Brit.Now it's like they both agree to be against me and make my life miserable-Beth was hard enough to deal with, now there's two of them always ganging up against me.
