[Chapter 8]

~Tiles+Floor= Ow~

I think my father hit a nerve cause after that the air felt thick and heavy. The tension was high, Lora remained quiet and so did the rest of us. I finished the rest of my food. Wanting nothing but to escape this silence.

"Excuse me," I say standing up, "I need to use the restroom." I mumble heading back through the back door.

I've been to Mr and Mrs McCarthy's house before so I can vaguely remember where the toilet is. And if not then I could always just be a creepy house guest and open every door till I find the toilet.

Opening the first door next to the kitchen, 

I think it's in here...

I was right, although their bathroom looked nothing like ours. Ours had large mirrors and dark blue tiles but theirs have light grey tiles and only one small cabinet mirror.

After finishing my pee... Hehehe

    I'm feeling generous~ T (a/n)[Chapter 10]~"Probably can't throw a punch"~I'm not gonna lie and say that the week went fast cause it sure as hell felt long as fuuurck.I had to practically beg my parents to let me go home with Zack on Friday (Today). I lied to them and told them it was a group project that I was assigned, and Cole was in my group so he was gonna bring me back home.After hearing that Cole was in the group my parents relaxed a teeny tiny bit, but were still hesitant. They asked to speak to Zack's parents, so he pretended to be his dad for them to lay off.Which brings me to how I'm currently sitting in the passenger seat of Coles car. He's driving fast, because I think that he expected me to be scared.I'm not. I love driving fast.Opening the window slightly I stick my hand out and play with the

Wow...Cole goes in for another punch, this time aiming for her stomach. She grabs hold of his arm and uses her right leg to kick his side. Pulling him towards her she kicks his left side full force. Coles grunts of pain can be heard echoing through the gym.He takes a few steps back, trying to distance himself from her.

    [Chapter 12]~Dirty Maid~[Important A/N at the end. Please read it!]Cole seems scarred. He gave me a few chores to do around the house, no more questions or sly remarks were thrown my way. Which I was very grateful for.I'm busy sorting out the tiny cabinet underneath their TV. It's filled to the brim with CDs and a few vinyls here and there. As I was bending down to get another CD box to dust off, I hear someone shuffle behind me. My position on the floor is slightly compromising.My ass is in the air and my hands are in front of me by the cabinet. I didn't really care about Cole being downstairs because he said he'd stay upstairs for the most part. Well until now...Turning around I can see Cole standing there awkwardly. Looking at everything but me, he's bending down in front of the couch. So that the only thing in sight is his torso and chest, which is still bare mig

At 8:30 in the evening.Just turn around everything will be fine.I think to myself. It can't be that bad right, I square my shoulders and rotate my body.I'm now facing 6 wide-eyed, jaw dropped boys. Their just staring at me, can this get any more awkward. The heat creeping up my neck isn't helping me either."Whew, I've been telling you to show skin for years! And look at you, your fucking hot. Dare I even say it. You look fuckable!" Justin spew

    [Chapter 14]~Bloody Truth~Blood everywhere. Blood on the porch. Blood on the floor. Blood on me.But it's not mine, it's his. The man laying in my bathtub, he's practically drowning in his blood. I can't see a definite wound, but there's blood. A lot of blood.If it weren't for his eyes I probably wouldn't have recognised him. Him and I being the only ones out of our 4 siblings to inherit our fathers dark, almost black looking, eyes. Our sister and other brother having their mothers eyes.My brother, Raúl , lay semi unconscious in the bath. Blood seeping all around.I grab the detachable shower head by the bath (not in the shower); and slowly try washing the blood off. I take his shirt off slowly trying not to hurt him. But when he lifts his arm he winces softly. I pull the remainder of his sweater over his head, and toss it to the basin.

I hate Mondays and any other day except Friday and Saturday.After Cole left my house on Saturday morning the rest of my weekend was uneventful. I coded, I worked out...At least I'm at school now, it's an escape as sad as that sounds; my parents are way too overprotective and it can be suffocating, truly. But being at school, it's like I have a newfound freedom. Even if I am half asleep in English literature halfway through the day.Don't get me wrong, I love English.

And Michael was being charged for harassment to some football player. I'm pretty sure it was an argument that escalated. Quickly.It's my

    [Chapter 29]~Sinfull righteousness~ I kissed Cole. Not a big deal, I'm not freaking out. Pffffft... No not me. It's not like that was my first kiss, with a egotistical jerk. Ahaaaa! Fuck my life, I should just go home. Or I could drink myself silly... But knowing my parents they'll be home early so it's better not to be hungover, which would be ten times worse for me being inexperienced and all.

He's been in my physics class since grade 10, and I'm very certain he knows who I am because I'm constantly answering Mr Jenkins questions. He's a wallflower, nice to everyone but not overly nice. Most people know him, but he's not like the snobbish popular kids at my school."Oh, umm hi?" It wasn't meant to be a question.But he doesn't seem to see my lack of communication skills and continues to try to start up a conversation with me. For some reason..."So, what school do you go to?" Theo asks.This could go one of t

Dolores had called her friend, whose name was actually Sailor. It was weird seeing the girl that Dolores thought I'd be 'perfect' for. And she also made a point of telling Sailor this as well. Sailor had scrutinised me with a heavy gaze.I've never felt so naked, and she made a point to look a my lack of chest that Justin let hang out. Gosh! I don't want that to happen again. I've never had it happen with anyone but Dolores and her friend were both very confident. Boys have never paid attention to me so why would she?I was shocked at how Dolores could be so happy and bubbly after a traumatic experience but she didn't seem phased one bit. Is that norma

If it wasn't school and trying to get okay marks then you were trying to finish a job to help your parents out. Lord alone knows what that job is." Andy pauses as he takes a turn, while I try to ignore his remark about my attempts to just make it to below average marks, turning into the road of Alanon High. Not far from Crown High, there's a football game happening there tonight. I'm not too big on school rivalry, everyone takes it so seriously. Were gonna die one day anyway.That was a morbid thought..."What I'm trying to say is, let loose for a little bit, before you know it you're holding a walking stick and everything's gone." He turns to me, stopping in front of the school.I sigh softly and give him a gentle smile.

    [Chapter 24]~Yellow Head~His head covered by a wet potato sack, the water drips coolly down his shoulders, wetting his shirt in the process. I'm quite surprised at how agile and quiet the men and women were, only a few guards were injured and knocked out and you couldn't even hear them.Cole and Zack quietly instruct them what needs to be done and leave them to transport the leader of the Halcóns back to Scorpion territory and base. I'm surprised at how little of a fight he put up, but I'm guessing they really did a number on him, by the way he's being dragged limply and judging by the blood dripping down his white shirt.The men and woman split off from us and head in a different direction. The boys and I continue to trek a few more metres before coming to the car we hid on the side of the road a few properties over.
