Chapter 2: Late Night Confrontations
Amy and Samey walk into their house, both with different emotions. While Samey was feeling happier than ever, Amy was furious. She turns around and glares at her twin, feeling the urge to slap that stupid grin right off her face.
"Reeeaaallly nice, Samey!" Amy snapped. "I give you a simple task, and you manage to fuck it up!"
Samey sighs and walks towards the kitchen, hanging their house keys back up. Amy follows her inside and grabs a thing of yogurt out of the fridge. Samey sat down at the kitchen table, watching her sister as she leaves the room. Hearing her sister's footsteps heading upstairs, Samey quickly whips out her cellphone, and scrolls through her contact list. Finding Mike's number, she grins, and begins to send a text.
"Maybe things won't be so bad anymore..." She says to herself.
"Mike!" Bellowed Mal's voice. "Get your ass out here!"
Mike sighs with frustration and exits his room. He's been putting up with Mal for a very long time, and was done with his crap. Walking into the living room, he sees Mal sitting on the couch, holding up the keys to the car. Mike furrows his brow with confusion, making Mal annoyed.
"For God's sake, Mike, I want you to go pick up the pizza!"
"Sorry..." Mike responds sarcastically, taking the keys from him.
Mal watches Mike leave the house and rolls his eyes, turning on the TV. "What a little douche..." he observes.
Mike is driving through the neighborhood. He really wished that Mal could do these kind of things, and not him. Mal had always treated him this way for as long as he could remember, and he never knew why. Samey must've thought the same thing- her sister's unexplained hatred for her. They're family; they shouldn't be like this at all! Still, Mal was his brother, and Mike had to except that wither he liked it or not. He wasn't really the popular one...Mal was. Mal was always first place in front of Mike.
Samey must've felt like that, too- her sister always being one step ahead of her. Always.
"This is stupid..." Mike mumbled.
Suddenly, out of nowhere, a shadowed figure appears on the street. Mike nearly screams, and quickly stops the car. The figure quickly backed away, looking a little shanked. Mike gets out of the car, throwing the figure a concerned, yet somewhat annoyed, look.
"Are you okay?"
"...Mike?" The figure asked.
Mike recognized that voice; he'd heard it earlier today. The figure pulls it's hood over it's head, revealing to be Samey. The twin smiles sadly, giving him a nervous look. Mike blinks- taking a double take, in fact. He was bewildered; why was Samey out this late?
"S-Samey?" Mike asked. "What are you doing out here?"
"I should be asking you the same thing..." Samey tilts her head. "Did I hurt you or anything?"
Mike shakes his head. "Nah, it's alright. Mal won't ask- it's my crappy truck, after all."
"Crappy?"
"Yeah, crappy..." Mike leans against the truck, folding his arms. "Our parents only see Mal as "the good one". I try so hard to prove them wrong, but, of course, being the evil genius that he is, Mal sabotages my attempts- making me look like the bad one! They've even gone far enough one time to send me to juvenile hall..."
Samey gasped and covered her mouth. "Did...Did they really?"
"No," Mike sighed. "Gladly, they didn't. I just kept my distance from him as much as I could. But with our parents away, it makes dodging Mal a bit harder."
Samey furrows her brow. She knew what it was like trying to dodge her twin sister. Amy was the boss of her when their parents were around, but she was practically the boss when their parents were out and away.
"That's so unfair..." Samey observes.
Mike nods. "Tell me about it. So, why are you out here? It's pretty late, you know..."
"I always sneak out at night..." Samey sighs while lowering her head. "I always walk off to the park and look up at the stares, wishing that I could be anywhere but here. It's a silly thought, isn't it? I shouldn't be out here alone..."
"No, it's okay, I get it..." Mike smiles. "I know it's tough. Hey, I'm going out to get pizza for Mal. Maybe when I'm done, I can give you a lift home?"
Samey blinked with confusion. "Really? You would...take me home?"
"Of course!" Mike smiled.
"Well then...I guess it'll be fine."
"Perfect!" Mike beams as he opens the truck's door. "Hope in,"
Samey smiles and nods, doing as she's told, and gets into the truck. The swing by the pizza place to pick up the pizza, and Mike takes Samey home. Once they pull into the driveway, Samey nervously smiles up at him.
"Thanks, once again..." Samey blushed.
"No problem," Mike replied. "So, I guess I'll see you a school, then?"
"S-Sure..."
Samey gets out of the truck and begins walking up to their front door. Turning around, she happily waves at Mike as he drives away. Samey sighs lovely and leans against the door. She'd never felt like this about anyone. Samey enters the house and the first thing she sees is Amy, standing there with her hands on her hips. The blonde with the mole glares at her.
"Where were you?!" Amy snapped.
"Nowhere..." Samey says, trying to lie.
Amy, still glaring at her, grabs her by the wrist, making the poor girl yelp. "You snuck out! Samey, you idiot!"
"I managed to get a ride home, so you can just calm your tits, sis!" Samey yelled back.
Both girls just stand there in dead silence. Amy lets out a low chuckle and crosses her arms as he grins at her sister.
"You were with that Mike guy, weren't you?"
Samey blushed. "No! Maybe...So?!"
"You honestly think that you have a chance with that loser- that freak?! He's a total weirdo!"
Samey glares at her. "Well, at least Mike's kind! At least he cares about me! At least he shows me kindness! At least he makes me happy! All you ever do, Amy, is make my life a living hell! Fuck you, Amy! I hate you!"
Amy watches as he sister bawls her eyes out as she runs upstairs, and slams her door shut. Amy rolls her eyes and walks upstairs, and into her bedroom. Locking the door, Samey crashes herself onto her bed, and sobs into her pillow, falling asleep.
Mike enters his house, holding the pizza. Mal is sitting in the kitchen, scrolling through his cell phone. Hearing Mike enter the room, he looks up, and puts his phone down. He watches his twin place the pizza box on the table, and gets out two plates.
"And where were you?" Mal scuffed, grabbing his plate.
"Nowhere..." Mike muttered. "Just getting the pizza."
"The pizza that you arrived late with!" Mal remarked. "What exactly happened?"
Mike sighed with frustration and glares at him. "There was some traffic, okay?!"
"It's ten at night..." Mal says.
"Um...long line?" Mike unsurely answered.
Mal stands up from the table and slams his hands onto the table, looming over him. "I know you're lying, Mike. Now I'll ask you again...Where were you?!"
Mike gets up and slams his hands onto the table and glares at Mal. "Fine. I was with Samey, okay?"
"That bimbo?" Mal chuckled darkly. "She's just as much as a moron than you are! You two dipshits will be perfect together."
"Don't you fucking disrespect her!" Mike yelled. "She's a beautiful, wise, and innocent girl!"
"Oh, just like how Zoey was...before that 'accident'?" Mal grinned, crossing his arms.
That done it. Mike leaps from the table and slams Mal into the wall, punching him. Before Mike could go any further, Mal grabbed Mike by the wrist, and throws him into the living room. Mike grabs a pillow from the couch and spikes it at a charging Mal, knocking him off balance. Now on top of his brother again, Mike glares at him and raises his fist.
Mal chuckles darkly.
"Go on...Do it, Mike. We both know you want to. Do it for Zoey..."
Mike hesitates for a moment, then sighs angrily and lowers his fist. He makes his way down the hall, mumbling, "I'm not hungry..." before slamming and locking his door shut.
So sorry for this shitty chapter! D:
I'll try harder in the next one! But in the mean time, I hope you enjoy this!
What exactly does Mal mean by "accident" and "Zoey"? How does this tie in the story? Please tell me your thoughts on where I'm going with this! ;)
Sooo...I guess that's it...for now. Until the next chapter, I hope you're enjoying this!
See ya soon,
