L: So tell me gurl, what's goin' on with you and Finn? Cause if I gotta mess dat bitch up I'll do it, only for you and maybe on a Tuesday of next year when I'm, ya know, more fit.
B: We broke up, it's fine! He can date who he wants now I don't really care if I'm gonna be honest.
L: Gurl, I think you're going through some weird kind of guilt or grieving stage because I was a freaking MESS when my boyfriend broke up with me, do you need me to come over?
B: Nah, I'm totally fine don't you worry bout a thing. Anyhow I think I should spend the night at home with poor, heartbroken Neddy.
L: Oh heeeelll no! Not my baby Neddy! What happened to him?
B: Jake didn't tell Neddy that he was dating Lady and was seen kissing her making Neddy's liking turn to pure heart break. Lady is really pissed at Jake, since he never told Neddy about them so she isn't talking to Jake.
L: Good! That's mah girl! Jake broke Neddy's heart! He's such a sweetheart too! Ugh I hate Jake sometimes! Finn too!
B: Come on you know that's a lie, Lis. You love Jake and Finn I know you.
L: *grumbles in disdain* maybe I like them still but Jake STILL broke sweet Neddy's heart! Kick his ass in your brother's honor Bon!
B: You sure are inspirational. I feel an urge to kick ass and I'M a peaceful person!
L: Yeah right, Bon you kicked some girls ass in Elm school. Now let me point out, again, ELEMENTARY SCHOOL.
B: Hey! It was self defense and provocation! She was making fun of you, Lady and myself! She had it coming you know that!
L: ELEMENTARY SCHOOL.
B: SELF DEFENSE AND PROVOCATION!
L: Gurl, I gotta go to bed, you make this drama queen seem like a Princess compared to what you've been through.
B: Rolling my eyes at ya right now, I hope you feel the shift of the Force with how powerful this eye roll is. But get your ass to bed and sleep!
L: Don't tell me what to do, gurl! Or should I say- don't tell me what to do, WOMAN!
B: Woman?
L: It's your birthday! Come on, gurl! I can't BELIEVE you forgot it was your birthday! It's midnight, officially July 25th you are now an eighteen year old! Ahhh my baby's growing up! Then you'll be leaving me early in August to go to college! OMG I'm making myself cry!
B: Come on Larissa! I won't leave so soon! Besides, we are graduates now as of last month and besides YOU'LL be going to college too along with Lady!
L:Omg you're right but...it's sad thinking we'll be so far apart yet so close!
B: Song lyrics?
L: ...Maybe. Going to bed! TTYL!
B: Night ya crazy!
"Bonnie. Bonnie. Bonnie!" Bonnibel jerked out of her sleep at her brother hissing her nae in the silence of her room and she blinked blearily at her bedside clock taking in the bright blue numbers. Three A.M.
"God Neddy, what do you want? I'm tired." She whined as she rolled onto her back, her arm draping across her forehead as her squinted tiredly meeting her brother's swollen red ones and she felt a stab of sadness. Her brother must have been crying hard and VERY long for them to be so swollen and so red like that, she sat up on her elbows, her hair sticking up in odd angles as her bed springs squeaked with the movement and her window, opened just a crack, sent in a warm still breeze in the room as the moon shone bright outside.
"Can...Can I sleep with you tonight? It's weird, I know, I'm fourteen, you're eighteen but I-I just..I just want, for one more night-"
"Come on get in the bed, I'm falling asleep as you speak." Bonnibel moved over, throwing the blankets open allowing her brother to slide in and she dropped the blankets around him as he cuddled against her, his head resting against her collar bone and his hair tickled her chin.
Neddy's cheeks were sticky from sweat and tears, his lashes were a little bit damp as he nuzzled into her and she lifted her hand up stroking his hair lethargically. Her bed was dipping in, the moon shedding in some light through her curtains as her head rested on the pillow, her hair spreading out ad she yawned loudly as her brother's breathing deepened slowly and she shut her own eyes, aware of the sound track of crickets outside her window and something about the sound was just...it was just...so...soothing that she couldn't...stay... awa...
Buzzing. Her phone was buzzing against her bedside table. Bonnibel's eyes opened slowly, her vision bleary with sleep as she yawned loudly stretching up and looked to the side, looking at her brother's sleeping face and smiled softly. His arms were wrapped around her waist as his cheek pressed to the top curve of her breast just barely and when she lifted her hand up stroking his hair he shifted whining softly a little bit.
The sun was bright, burning through her window as she turned her head lazily to stare out at the bright blue sky and yawned again moving her arm around Neddy. Her brother needed comfort, she knew he did and she would provide it but she reached out grabbing her buzzing phone and smiled seeing they were all fro Larissa. They ranged from demanding she text back straight to how Neddy was and what she wanted to do for her birthday and it made her roll her eyes and shake her head softly at her friend's behavior.
"Bonnie?" Bonnibel looked down, Neddy's voice soft and lethargic with sleep as his blue eyes meet her eyes, the fog of sleep clear in the glazed look of his eyes. "What time is it?"
"It's about nine o'clock." She answered yawning at the end of her sentence, little tears popping up in her eyes and she stretched just as Neddy did and he shifted keeping his head on her chest.
"Happy Birthday, Bonnie." Neddy smiled sweetly at her, his gaze becoming more alert as his pupils shrunk when he looked at the window and cringed lightly making Bonnibel laugh softly. He then sighed out tightening his arms around her waist. "I'm really gonna miss you, Bon."
"It'll be okay, Neddy. I'll always call, I'll text you so much you go insane and message you and skype you whenever you want. 'Kay?" Bonnibel smiled as the words poured out of her mouth then sat up with Neddy still clinging to her like he did when he was younger. "But for now I need to bathe and so do you."
"Fine." He grumbled then sighed as he slid out of the bed stretching, his shirt riding up to expose his stomach and he yawned loudly making Bonnibel chuckle softly then stand up after him, her mattress squeaking lightly at the lack of weight and her carpet was soft under her feet which were heavy feeling with sleep.
She stretched until her body quivered and yawned excessively and she moaned quietly then walked past her brother opening her bed room door which groaned and walked across the hall to the bathroom. She shut the door behind her which clicked gently and subtlety and she padded across the tiled floor to the shower pulling the curtain to the side a little bit and turned the faucet allowing water to burst out of the shower head. She grabbed the hem of her tank top throwing it to the floor then pushing her shorts and panties down letting them pool around her ankles and she stepped out of them.
Her reflection caught her attention out of the corner of her eye and turned facing her reflection in the mirror on the door (there was also one above the sink) and stared at her body. She wasn't thin nor was she overweight, but a soft mix of the both, her sides sloped down to her hips with a little flare, her thighs touched perfectly, her arms weren't thin but perfectly soft, the coloring a soft tan with just the tiniest touch of a white tan light not that it was noticeable.
Her hair, dyed pink, stood out brightly like a neon comparison to her skin but the one thing everyone thought weird? Her eyes. They weren't neon, weren't dark they weren't minty light but a bright piercing emerald green that burned out of her eyes like glowing gems and yet, despite how it seemed green eyes were rare, there was no flecks of any other color in her eyes, not even the mentioned gold rings that were around the pupils like doctors said there would be. No, her eyes were just a fierce solid emerald green that burned hot with curiosity but with that fierce color as well.
Her breasts, however, also got most peoples attention from how soft and big there were, bigger than her mothers and hung slightly low on her chest not perky like other girls at all but soft; malleable and squishy, something to nuzzle into and completely noticeable which she hated. She sighed turning away walking to the shower stepping in just as a knock on the door got her attention making her twitch lightly.
"Bonnie? You in there?" Her mother. She sighed out stepping into the shower, her hair immediately becoming saturated with the water that beat down on her skin immediately relaxing the tense muscles from her bodily evaluation.
"Yeah! Need something?" She called out the words while moving her hands over her hair and grabbed the soap scrubbing away while grabbing the body soap and moving it hard across her skin with precise motions and enough to make her skin turn a light red and she winced feeling a small trickle of soap move over her eye closing it immediately against the burn.
"Just wanted to tell you that Dad's coming home today!" Bonnibel smiled softly as the water pounded down and she washed the soap out of her eye then her hair and conditioned her hair, of course, then washed that out afterwards.
She turned the water off standing there, the warmth deep in er skin listening to her mother walk away as the water dripped off her hair to the shower floor along with a few droplets from the shower head before she began to shiver gently with the cold seeping in and she shoved the curtain open stepping out and padding across the tiled floor, leaving wet foot prints on th tiles grabbing a towel and avoiding her reflection as she opened the door walking out right across to her room thankful her brother had left already as she shut the door and began to towel dry herself off, the air cold against her warm skin.
She walked o her closet pulling on the only black t-shirt she managed to get and a pair of her dark jeans the material clinging to her and honestly, she had to admit wearing clothes without wearing a bra or panties felt much more relaxing. She moved her wet hair out from her shirt feeling it drip onto her shirt slowly wetting it when she grabbed the towel moving it over her hair in quick motions while bowing her head gripping her wet hair in fistfuls, squeezing the water out before rubbing it again. She finally flipped her head up, her hair now resting in wet waves against her back and she rubbed her hair a few more times before throwing the towel in her laundry basket and walked out.
Her jeans swished as she walked with each movement and her arms swung by her sides as she moved down the hall to the stairs and padded down them rubbing her temple gently. She reached the bottom of the stairs letting loose a little yawn peering in to the den seeing Neddy curled up on the couch fast asleep. She smiled gently then walked to the kitchen her feet slapping against the tiles lightly as she stretched her arms over her head and her mother looked up, her violet eyes shining with happiness as she bustled over throwing her arms around Bonnibel and she hugged right back instinctively.
"My baby girl, now an adult. God, I feel so old! My little girl, already to go off to college!" Her mother crooned softly into her hair as she stroked a lock of her dyed hair and held Bonnibel tight. "My sweet little girl."
"I love you too, Mom." She murmured back her voice soft, barely above a whisper as she shoved her face into her mother's neck closing her eyes gently much like she used to do when she was little. She held onto her mother, not wanting to move not wanting to speak or ruin the moment as she clung to her mother inhaling her sweet scent deep into her lungs as though to hold her there only to release out the breath and inhale once more.
"You've grown up so fast, how has time gone by so damn fast?" Her mother whispered, her arms tight around her as she held Bonnibel tightly only to pull away gently keeping Bonnibel in her arms, reaching a hand up brushing a pink lock of hair out of her gaze and she looked straight into her mother's eyes, a clash of violet and green. "You're not wearing your contacts today."
"Y-Yeah, I mean I wanted to just kinda..keep them out today. I mean you can't wear colored contacts and regular contacts at the same time." She laughed nervously gritting the words out then pulled away from her mother, already hating the decision she made to keep her color contacts safely put away.
"You look good I like your eyes. They're beautiful, I don't know why you feel the need to hide them away so much. They're rare, no one has eyes like you and that's what makes you so special." Bonnibel looked at her mother sharply her brows pulling tightly together as she stared at her mother who just smiled gently then jolted like she just got shocked. "Oh! Finn left a message for you, said he'd be around to hang out with you but that some girl- Phoebe?- wanted to talk to you too. I told him I'd tell you but that it was completely up to you to let him come around."
"Thanks, Mom." And she meant it. Her mother was crazy protective and crazy in general, but she loved her mother more than anything and she knew her mother knew it.
"You're birthday cake will be done in a little while, Dad'll be home soon to see you." Her mother pulled away saying the words in a flippant way that made Bonnibel sigh out gently grabbing the can of frosting opening it and stuck her finger in swiping some frosting from the can coating her finger and popped it into her mouth sucking on it while her mother turned around with a fake scowl. "Don't eat the frosting! Now I know where you get your sweet tooth!"
"You know you love me~" Bonnibel sang smirking wide and bright, her eyes parking with mischief as she stared at her mother who rolled her eyes softly at her daughter.
"I might love you. You're a pain in the ass sometimes, always have been but you're my princess." She sighed out looked at the ceiling then clasped her hands together as if in prayer. "Oh mighty Lord give me the sweet strength to deal with my demon child." She grinned at Bonnibel who burst out laughing loud.
"You're so stupid sometimes, but I love ya for it!" She grinned right back at her mother sliding around the little island and kissed her mother's cheek. "I think I'm gonna take a book and go lay out while the sun's out."
"Alright, remember I don't condone nude sun bathing unless it's in the spot we all picked out." Her mother reached out nipping her fingers against Bonnibel's chin gently smiling happily and playfully at her daughter.
"Ah yes for my father and dear brother would be blinded if they saw me naked even ONCE." Bonnibel sighed out placing a hand to her chest in a 'woest me!' sort of way. "They'd be blinded by my terrible ugliness."
"Oh stop it! Now get out there, before Neddy wakes up and your father comes home." Her mother smirked snapping at her with the towel she held in what seemed like magic and Bonnibel gave a little squeal of laughter before dashing away laughing and ran out shoving open the side door leading to th back porch and backyard the sound of cicadas was overwhelming at first.
She walked to the book shelf held in the room and grabbed the first book she got her hands on which was, Patience and Sarah by Isabel Miller. She walked out onto the porch shutting the sliding door behind her and walked out into the grass underneath a tree that had been in their yard forever and laid under it on her stomach crossing her ankles and opened the book to page one. Maybe today wouldn't be so bad, maybe it'd be a great day the way it was starting to be other than Neddy being heartbroken but just as she started reading the sound of a car pulling up and a door slamming shut made her look up and sigh. Guess her reading would have to be spared for another time.
