A/N: Well Helloooo:) Does that creepy hello remind anyone else of Mrs. Doubtfire? I read it over and thought about putting pie on my face. Anyway... I kinda didn't mean Ally looked like hooker in the last chapter, of coarse I wouldn't do that. Ally is the kind of girl to always wear jeans and a sweater or something, not to show herself off because she's uncomfortable with it. Her costume wasn't trashy, Ally just isn't comfortable with it and Warren noticed that. Just to clear that up, I don't want anyone getting the wrong idea of her.
Talis Ruadair: I read your review and I am so sorry, I got messed up. I was watching Scooby-Doo and I meant to put witch, (not that I'm a 4 year old watching cartoons), I guess I mixed the words wiccan and witch together and came up with my own word. Don't mind me, my bad facts. lol so please enjoy this chapter:)...
Dangerously Paranoid Chapter 6: The Aftermath
"Mmmm," I groaned rolling over in my bed. My head was pounding and every muscle was sore, I felt like throwing up. I noticed Duke asleep in a blanket near the window in the sun. "Where did Gramps take you last night?" I asked him, he got up and left.
Innopropriate question I guess.
I noticed a glass of water, pain killers and a note on my sidetable. I picked it up gingerly and read it.
"Consider us even -Warren."
I was confused, all I remember is having the hiccups and falling. That's it, wait! I told him he owed me one after I got rid of that blonde girl. I took the Advil and sipped on my water, my throat was so dry and I felt like shit completely. Last night I had a drink of soda which I guess had something in it, because I kept drinking more and more and then next thing you know I was dancing with 6 armed Calvin McDonald.
I got up and went to use the bathroom, I got a cold shower and changed into some baggy sweats and a dark blue hoodie with white strings on the hood. Letting my hair dry naturally and not putting on any makeup, I made sure to brush my mouth out a million times before putting on my fuzzy slippers and slowly making my way downstairs. I wasn't sure what time it was but the bright sun was causing me to wince in pain.
I heard someone cooking in the kitchen and followed my nose there. Gramps was frying a steak with a huge smile.
"Good afternoon sleepy head." He said winking at me.
"Afternoon? What time is it?" I asked.
"Quarter to three hun, you were asleep for a while. Why were you up so late?" He asked innocently. I knew he wasn't stupid, he knew exactly what went down last night he just won't say anything.
"So where did you acctually take Duke last night? And don't say the vet because no one randomly and secretly takes a huge Saint Bernard to the vet." I said slyly, he smirked realizing he didn't fool me.
"I took him to see a few friends of mine. They're dog breeders." He explained.
"Oh," I shrugged, he put the steak on a plate and then on the floor as I took out the container of yogurt for myself. "What are you doing?" I asked as he poured himself some tea. Duke entered and started eating the steak. "Why did you make the dog a steak?" I asked in a laugh.
"He don't like kibble." Gramps said with a quirky smile.
"He's a dog, he's supposed to eat kibble." I explained, Duke turned and growled at me before returning to his food. "Apparently not." I smirked.
"Your friends called darlin', they'll be here in 5,4,3,2.." He checked his watch. Someone rang the doorbell. "Come in!" He said with a cheeky smile. He knew I wasn't up to anything today so of coarse he allows my friends to come and annoy me.
"Hey Alls, let's go." Kate and Layla each grabbed an arm.
"What! Where?" I asked confusidly as they lead me to the door.
"See ya Gramps!" Kate called to Grampa as she opened the front door. Everyone started calling my Grandfather Gramps like I do for about a week now, we had a study session in my living room and Gramps told them stories from when he lived in Ireland as a teen. They love him,
"Where are we going?" I asked as I got in the back seat, my head was still spinning along with my stomach.
"The Paper Lantern where else." Layla said with a smile and a shrug as Kate started driving. She got her license taken away for a while because she was being 'saucy' to her father.
"How you feeling?" Layla asked me.
"Like I'm dying." I replied.
"You look terrible." Kate added.
"Thanks," I said sarcasticly with a smirk.
"Sooooo-..." Kate said dragging the "o". "Warren had to take you home last night." She said smirking.
"And..." I shrugged.
"You passed out so he had to carry you." She smiled, I felt self concious and then embarrassed but I just shook it off and tried to think about something else as we pulled into The Paper Lantern. Will, Ethan, Zack and Magenta were sitting in a family booth in the back and we joined them. I sat at the edge and lazily rested my head in my hands rubbing my temples.
"Hung over?" I looked up to see Warren with a huge smirk, he was wearing an apron and had his hair tied back.
"Not at all," I said sarcasticly and he just rolled his eyes. "Does anyone know who put what into those drinks last night?" I asked, if I had've known I wouldn't of drinken any, I'm an easy drunk and I'm not that kind of person.
"I think it was Camille Jensen." Layla said in a gossiping whisper.
"Who?" I asked confusidly as Warren sat down at the opposite end of the booth.
"She's the new queen bee, blonde, preppy, bitchy, you know the bee of S.H." Magenta explained.
"Yeah, ever since we defeated Gwen, Camille kind of took over." Will sighed.
"She's bad news, so try to stay away from her." Warren said
"Telling me what to do Peace?" I laughed sipping on Layla's rootbeer, he rolled his eyes.
"No, I'm just suggesting." He shrugged.
I took a fortune cookie and cracked it open. "The Tooth Fairy will step on your face." I read aloud making everyone laugh lightly. "What's thats suppo-... Oww!" I bit into the cookie and felt a sharp pain on my wisdom tooth.
"Both of them need to be pulled." Doctor Lyons said sitting back in his chair, I winced. For one, I hate dentists and two I don't want to get it pulled, it's going to hurt like hell.
"Do we need to schedule an appointment?" Gramps asked as the dentist removed his rubber gloves and tossed them in the garbage. I sat up in the dentists chair.
"Well it's bad, but I don't have any open days for the next few months. I might be able to squeeze you in, but it would have to be early Saturday morning. Say, 8:30 a.m?" He explained.
"8:30? Yes, well. I have an appointment, so I have to get someone else to take her in." Gramps said. "What appointment?" I asked. He didn't answer, he just started conversing with the dentist. I'm nervous, I've always been wary in the dentist's office. Ever since I got my braces off when I was 13, it hurt like hell and the doctor had bad hygene issues.
"Alright Allycat, let's go." Gramps said grabbing his coat. I got up and said goodbye to the dentist.
I couldn't help but think of the horrible things that could happen: I could sneeze during the procedure and he could rip out the wrong tooth, or he could forget how to do it and he makes it worse and I die from pain! Okay, I'm just over thinking this. Yeah, it shouldn't go that wrong.
I'm getting worried about Gramps, he's been leaving for so called "appointments" and he doesn't say what they're for or where they're at. He's been really secretive lately and it's scaring me. When we got home Gramps went straight to the phone. I wasn't sure why and I wasn't about to spy on my grandfather.
"Hey," Lindsey said awkwardly starting up a conversation with me, I sat at the end of the couch and put on The Big Bang Theory.
"Hi," I said not really paying attention, Duke sat on the other end of the couch and I noticed Lindsey's cat sleeping in the sun.
"I was wondering if I could borrow Gram's locket?" She asked with her hand behind her back. Grams gave me a silver heart locket before she died, it had the enscription "A broken heart is not a memory of love but an open wound to which needs tending." On the inside, her grandmother gave it to her and she gave it to mom and when mom died grams gave it to me.
"Why?" I asked suspiciously.
She held out her hands showing me the locket which was broken in two. "I didn't mean it, it fell off the chain and it broke." She made an excuse. I stared at it wide-eyed for a moment and then reached out and picked it up.
"You know Vlad the Impaler had cruel and sufficient punishments for those who stole." I said in a low voice.
"What?" She asked confusidly. I sighed and held onto it tightly before silently walking upstairs.
I could feel the tears weighing down my eyes. I can't! I shouldn't! It's just a necklace! It had no real value to it, That's a lie, it had so much sentimental value into it. It was the one thing I had left to remember my Grams and my Mom, Grams gave it to mom and when Mom died it went back to Grams and then Grams gave it to me. It was so special to me, and as I look at it now with my sight blurred I couldn't help but feel as if I was stabbed in the gut. There has to be someone who can fix it.
It's split down the middle and the little hinge is broken off, maybe a local jewelry store? There has to be, I cared for this locket so deeply I kept it in my Jewelry box because I was scared something would happen to it. Lindsey took it out and look what happened.
I sighed putting in back in its original spot. This day couldn't get any worse, and it's only starting.
The week went by too quickly, I wasn't prepared. Gramps would just say I'm being a baby because it isn't that bad but I don't want it done.
So I woke up early on Saturday. I love my rest, especially on Weekends, but today it was just not happening. I was nervous, no! I was terrified! Something was going to go wrong and I could feel it! I hate this!
This stupid power, I can never tell if something bad is going to happen to me or maybe even some villain, but I always get the feeling theres someone around the corner plotting to kill me.
I used my telekinesis to get the eggs and made breakfast. Soon Josie arrived and then Kate, Josie was taking me and Kate was just coming along. I put on my baby blue American Eagle sweater, a pair of baggy grey sweat pants and put my hair up in a messy bun. There was no point in looking like a million dollars if I was going to the dentist.
*Kate's P.O.V*
Mrs. Stronghold and I took Ally to the Dental Clinic, we waited first and Ally had to fill out some forms. After some talking and Ally getting terrified out of her mind she went into get her wisdom teeth ripped out.
Josie and I talked about school and then boys. I've always loved talking to Josie, she's nice and gives great advice. She doesn't have a daughter of her own but she treats all of us girls Layla, Me, Ally and Magenta like her daughters.
"Don't worry hunny, he probably just wants some space. Give him time to think, men need time because they're not quick enough to get it right away." She said making us both laugh.
We talked for a long time before came out.
"She's in the recovery room, she'll be a bit loopy and groggy for a while since we had to sedate her. We'll keep her here for a little while longer to run some tests. When she's home the gaws will need to be changed often and she'll need to eat soft foods." He explained as he lead us to Ally.
She was sitting in a large chair in the recovery room, her cheeks were swollen most likely because of the gaws. Her eyes were half shut, she looked tired as hell and like she was really drunk.
"Heyyyyy ge- gu-.." Her voice was muffled and it was hard to understand her, she couldn't find the right word. "Gu- guys." She said playing with her lips.
"Don't pick at it sweetie." The dental assistant was a woman in her late forties with a southern accent.
"My name is Ally!" Ally said frusteratedly furrowing her brows.
"Yes it is," Josie said with a smile sitting in the chair next to her big chair. "How are you feeling?" Josie asked.
"I, feel like... A fragshicle." She mumbled looking at her fingers.
"A what?" I asked in a laugh.
"Am I pregnant?" Ally asked quietly.
"No! You got your wisdom teeth out." Josie corrected her.
"My baby has teeth! I.. I'm having a vampire baby!" Ally asked worriedly, she looked like she was about to cry.
"No! You're not pregnant." I stated.
"My feek feels f-..fu-...funny." She muttered, I couldn't quite pick up what she was saying as she pulled on her cheeks.
"Hold your head up hun," the dental assistant whos name tag read "Lisa" put on ruber gloves and stuck two fingers into her mouth, slowly pulling out a bloody white gaw, and then the other before putting new ones in.
"My name is Ally." She stated, she doesn't understand why Lisa kept calling her hun and sweetie.
"Wheres my finger?" Ally ask worriedly looking at her hands.
"You have all your fingers." Josie laughed.
"No, no, no. He, he.. he took em'." She said in a muffled whimper.
"Who did?" I asked. She ingnored my question and started pulling on her numb lips.
"Where is shuh, sho, she sheds a tear and then begins to pray As the fire burns on and the smoke drifts away From Black Diamond Bay." Ally sings in a murmer. "Josie! Wilf! Will? Will you t...take me to a Bob Dylan concert?" She said making a wierd face.
"Isn't he dead?" Josie furrowed her eyebrows when she asked.
"I'M DEAD!" Ally cried.
"No! No no no! You're not dead." Josie laughed.
"Muh, meh, my.. Am I choking?" She asked Lisa the assistant.
"No Ally." She laughed.
"Are you sure?" Ally asked, Lisa nodded.
"I feel like I am, it's... It's... What's this!" Ally looked at the ring on her finger.
"It's your ring." I replied.
"It's pretty, I feel like a princess." She said almost falling out if her seat, we had to help her back up.
"Woah! I was going to be swimmin' with the fishes!" She said with wide eyes.
"Yeah," I chuckled.
"Runnin' with the meesi." She said concentrating on her hands.
"What's a meesi?" I asked.
"Meese." Ally said in a 'duh' sort of way.
"Moose?" Josie asked.
"Okay, where am I? Am I in Space? In time? Doctor Who?" She got excited.
Her favorite show is Doctor Who.
"We're at the dentist's." Josie explained as she helped her up, I'm guessing it was time to leave. They gave Josie a bag with gaws and pain killers for Ally. She was wobbly so I had to help her walk.
"Hi Kuh, Katie." She said through the gaws.
"Hey Alls." I smiled as we walked towards the exit.
The Dental Assistant "Lisa" sat Ally in a wheel chair and wheeled her out. She was holding her cheek and looking at all the cars.
"Is that our car!" She said staring at a lime green convertable. She hates the colour green and convertables.
"No Alls," I smirked as we walked to Mrs. Stronghold's car.
We managed to get her home without a hassle, she was as hilarious as ever. Taking about ketchup and medieval ducks then freaking out about not having her mouthwash.
*Ally's P.O.V*
I feel like I'm swallowing gallons of blood, and I have these huge empty holes in my gums at the back of my mouth. I can't chew anything so I've been eating Jello and ice cream for a while.
Layla arranged a movie night tonight, she said it's to make me feel better. I don't know how it's going to since I'm not emotionally missing anything, I'm physically missing something a.k.a my bottom wisdom teeth.
Layla and I walked over to Will's house, it was about 8:30 and it was getting dark. It is nearing November, which also means my birthday is coming up soon. I'm really excited that I'll be 17.
The big one seven,
We entered the living room of the Stronghold residence. Zack and Magenta were on the floor, Alex and Kate were on one end of the couch and Layla joined Will on the other, leaving me feeling like a giant 7th wheel by sitting alone on the loveseat.
We all said our hellos as Kate started telling the story of how I was all looney at the Dental Clinic, which I don't even remember.
"Hey Ally how are you feeling?" Steve said with a smile walking into the living room.
"A bit better, my cheeks and gums are sore and I get bad headaches now and then but my wisdom teeth have been bothering me since they started coming in last year." I explained as Will popped lots and lots of popcorn.
"I hope you like neopolitan?" Will said with a hopeful smile handing me a large container of ice cream and a spoon.
"Yes I do, thanks." I loooovvveeee ice cream. I could live on it, if it didn't make you fat because then I'd be old and the size of a mini van with 33 cats.
Anyway...
"What movie?" I asked eating some of the chocolate icecream out of the three flavours.
"It's called Zodiac, it's the story about the Zodiac killer." Will replied.
We started the movie and I curled up on the left side of the loveseat. I checked my phone for the time, 9:47. Zack was sound asleep and snoring, everyone else was quietly watching the movie.
I noticed Josie walking to the front door when someone knocked, she walked back in smiling with Warren behind her.
"Hey Warren, how was work?" Will asked as Warren took off his jacket and hung it on the rack then sat down on the opposite end of where I sit.
"It was work." He growled looking at the television.
"Hey," I whispered not to disturb anyone.
"Hey." He said looking at me with a smirk.
"What?" I asked, I felt self concious. Like I had something on my face and it immediately caused me to blush.
"Nothing. How's your teeth?" He asked.
"I got my two bottom wisdom teeth pulled but I'm fine now." I replied with a grin, I never noticed but he has chocolate brown eyes. It's nice...
"It's good your feeling better." He mumbled.
"Thanks, I've had issues with my teeth for a while but I had braces when I was younger and it fixed them." I explained.
We got into a conversation about my trip to the dentist and then about my Gramps. Then we talked about how I lived in New York and my mother. He never asked about my father either, which is what I like. It really annoys me when people ask me where my dad is if my mom died. It only annoys me because I don't know.
"and my Grams gave it to me a few months before she died and my sister broke it." I explained, my feet were curled under me and I was facing him but as far away as the edge so it wasn't awkward.
"Did you get mad at her?" He asked.
"There's no point, if I tell her not to touch my stuff she does it because I told her not to." I replied, he's acctually a really good listener. It's great because when I'm talking to Kate if we're not talking about Harry Potter or how amazing Reese cups are then she doesn't listen and it's the same with Layla. She always talks about the enviroment or Will and I never usually get a word in, I mean don't get me wrong I love them to death, they're like my best friends, but every once in a while it's good to have someone to talk to.
A/N: That was a long chapter... Well I wrote this one on my ipod and I didn't check it over so if you find any mistakes or issues feel free to tell me I don't get offended. Well if you said it was HOBKNOCKING PITTERPOSH, then I will, but I don't know what it means cuz I made it up so maybe it's a good thing? Anyway, I hope you liked this chapter please review:)...
