Are you coming with me- The Faders No Sleep Tonight
When I woke the next morning, at ten, I found Leah going through my drawer. I sat up and yawned, stretching. Seeing that I was awake, she continued to rummage.
"Looking for something?" I narrowed my eyes.
"No shit?" She scoffed.
"What's your problem?" I spat. She ignored my question and opted for one of her own.
"So what was with the screaming last night?" I could feel the blood rushing to my cheeks.
"Oh…you surprised me when you got in." She stopped and put her hands on her hips.
"Not that." She scowled. "At Five this morning?"
I furrowed my brow and thought. Had my dream continued? I tried to remember, but couldn't, and I was thankful for that.
"I uhh must have had a bad dream." I muttered. Leah's attention had gone to my sparkly white tank top, which I figured it was much too cool out for.
"Psshh I'll say. I'm borrowing this, ok?" She didn't wait for my approval. I gave a humph and stood up. If she could go through my things, then I figured I had the same right.
I waltzed over to her dresser and wrenched the top drawer open. Underwear. Lovely, but I didn't want to borrow that, God knows who's been in them. I went through the rest of her clothes and settled on a purple v neck sweater...
"I'm borrowing this, ok?" I mocked her. She looked me up and down, and raised her brow.
"I'm glad we understand each other." She smirked. I turned back to close up her dresser, when something caught my eye. I gingerly picked it up. I examined the picture very carefully; it was a group of men.
"See something you like?" Leah whispered in my ear. I jumped and nearly dropped the picture. She gave a half chuckle.
"Who are they?" I asked.
"Oh just my brother and his friends."
"How old is your brother?" I asked warily. She gave me a funny look.
"Seth's 16." I quickly looked back at the picture. Holy mother of Jesus. Any of them looked easily twenty five.
"How old are his friends?!" She gave me another 'wtf' look.
"Around the same age I guess."
"Good God is the town hopped up on damn steroids?" She gave a genuine laugh this time, probably from my reaction.
"Yeah, something like that." The fact that any teenager could get that big gave me the shivers. I threw her top on and I noticed it had a faint woodsy smell. It prompted my next question.
"So where exactly are you from?"
"La Push, WA." I acted like I knew where that was. She turned on me.
"And where are you from? Texas?" She had obviously picked up on my accent.
"No." I said instantly, my ego slightly bruised. "I'm from Oklahoma."
Leah laughed, "Oh that's so much better!" She teased. At least she wasn't being a bitch anymore.
"What's wrong with Oklahoma?" I asked slightly annoyed. Leah rolled her eyes.
"Oh nothing! Who wouldn't love to have a musical named after them?" I contemplated breaking out in song just to see what she would do.
"So have you got your schedule sorted out?" Leah asked before I could serenade her.
"Yeah I did it yesterday."
"Oh so what are you gonna major in?" She asked interested.
"Theater." I announced. "How about you?"
"I thought Biology was a good choice." Leah didn't really look like the Biology type to me, but I gave an 'mhhhhm' of approval.
I realized while getting ready, that I had no place to go. I wasn't supposed to meet Hayden until two. I thought about asking Leah where she was off to, but I wasn't fully convinced she liked me yet and I didn't want to seem clingy. After thinking about it I decided I would head to a small coffee shop I had seen down the street from the diner.
I grabbed my purse and headed for the door.
"Where are you going?" Leah asked trying not to sound too interested. I was actually sort of shocked she'd asked.
"Just gonna go get some coffee." I tried to play it off as nonchalant and apparently it worked. Ha I knew I was a good actress.
"Hold up, I'm going with you." Once again I was shocked. I kinda figured her as the lone wolf type thing.
"So why WSU?" Leah pried on our walk.
"To get away from my family." I answered truthfully. Leah laughed almost bitterly.
"Same here."
"What's the matter? Didn't want to be around all those big burly teenagers?" Only I laughed, Leah just looked pissed. I decided that was enough questions for now. The rest of the walk was silent, but not in a bad way.
"How frickin far is this place?" She finally asked. I smiled and pointed down the street.
"Right there."
The outside of the coffee house made it look very modern. Thankfully the inside was just as nice and as I hoped the menu did not disappoint. Leah ordered a black coffee, while I opted for something fancier with lots of whip cream, chocolate, and caramel. As I paid for my delicacy I noticed Leah had seated herself at a table in the far corner. I slowly shuffled over and sat across from her.
"So do you know many people here?" I attempted to make conversation. She twirled around her coffee stirrer.
"Nope. Consider yourself lucky number one." She looked slightly sad.
"But what about that guy last night?" I asked confused.
Leah snorted. "I met that loser in a club."
"Oh."
I couldn't think of anything else to talk about so we sat in silence. When I first met Leah I could plainly see that she was beautiful and I figured she would be plenty popular with guys. She was rude and tried to act tough, but her charade was crumbling and I could see right through it. I wondered if deep inside there was a small child screaming 'hug me'.
"What the hell are you so happy about?" She snapped me out of my thoughts. I gave the 'shit eatin grin'
"Oh nothing…" She smirked at me. This was very contagious.
"What are you thinking about?" She demanded. I jumped up and dragged her with me; I was going to cheer her up.
"Wait where are we going?" I laughed pulling her along.
"Oh you'll see." I kept my eyes open as we walk down the street, knowing exactly what I was looking for. A few blocks later I dashed across the street.
"A book store?!" Leah shouted after me, "You dragged me across half the town for a book store!" I was cracking up.
"C'mon!" I grabbed her arm. Walking in the dimly lit store I instantly found my target. Now I needed to find the bait. Leah protested as I dragged her up and down isles. What I was about to do was probably cruel and I had no idea if Leah would play along. But if it worked…Well Leah wouldn't be frowning for a while. I'd let her go but was still frantically searching.
"Ah Ha!"
"Kristy?"
"Don't worry my friends did this to me a couple of months back."
Leah eyed my suspiciously, "What exactly are we doing?" I didn't blame her. After all I was holding an arm full of porn. I handed her several very suggestive magazines and unraveled my evil plan to her.
"This will be epic." I laced our fingers together and dragged her back up to the front. There was a small line at the check out but I wasn't bothered. When we laid our items down on the counter, the look on the cashiers face was enough for me. I thought about the poor kid. He couldn't have been more than sixteen. I'm sure it wasn't every day he had college girls buying porn from him.
Leah played along and placed her hand in my back pocket. She batted her eyes at the boy and even leaned over the counter and pushed out her cleavage when he dropped a magazine.
"Umm uh t...that'll be $22.14." He blushed and stared at Leah. I saw her wink out of the corner of my eye. Poor guy, you'd have thought Megan Fox walked in naked.
"So what are you doing tonight?" I asked as he bagged our things. He looked at me with wide eyes.
"N n...nothing." He stammered. I bit my lip.
"Awwhh that's too bad." I moaned seductively. He wheezed.
"Well bye now." Leah blew him a kiss on the way out. She cackled as soon as she was out the door. People on the street stared.
"That poor boy'll be beating off for days!" She laughed.
"And you didn't trust me!" I pouted.
Yes I was a bitch. Yes I'm going to hell.
I looked down at my watch. It was ten till two.
"Ahh shit I gotta go to work!"
Leah had taken our purchases and gotten a cab while I sprinted back to the diner.
Damn, Damn, Damn!
It's not good to be late on your first day of work, so I hauled ass. I swerved through people on the busy street, but I was still five minutes late. I rushed through the door and saw Hayden standing behind the counter.
"Oh my god! I'm so sorry I'm late! I promise it'll never happen again." Hayden looked slightly taken aback.
"Hey don't worry about it, you're fine." She soothed. She watched me pant for a minute.
"So how was your morning?" She asked. I smirked.
"Great."
"That's good!" Then she handed me my new uniform dress and told me to get changed.
I groaned at it.
