Hello darlings, everyone is amazing! So, who's gonna win the contest? It could be anyone's game! So, if you don't want to be involved with the contest, just reply no thank you to when I message you! Anything else I need to say? No? Well, here's the story, I'm getting impatient!
. . . . . .
Matthieu asked his cousin Alex "Why are we doing this?"
"She's weak," he said to him "It would be pointless for her to randomly die when she's so fun to mess around with." And laughed darkly.
Oliver chimed in "She's incredibly polite too! She was scared to death by us when we first met her but still had that smile."
Louis said as he lit another cigarette "She's too pure. It's almost like she gives off happiness like it's a gas, it makes me sick." He puffed and blew it in a smoke ring.
"You speaking makes me sick." Matthieu said to his older brother by a few months.
Sofie swore she could hear a voice, she turned around to find no one, just the sidewalk and a few bushes nearby. She said to herself "I must be paranoid from what happened today." She shrugged and continued her walk.
Alex punched Matthieu in the arm and said "You fucking idiot, we could've been caught!"
"A dollar in the swear jar Alex!" Oliver said as he got a jar from seemingly nowhere.
Alex grumbled something incoherent as he got a dollar from his pocket and dropped it in. "Thank you!" His older brother by five months said to him cheerily.
"Whatever."
Sofie just wanted to say something randomly, might as well make it plausible. She said "Alex, Oliver, Louis, Matt, you can come out of the bush, I know your following me."
Alex got out of the bush and said "Damn, how did you know?"
Sofie jumped, he didn't expect him or any of them to come out of the bush. She said slowly "So you were following me."
Oliver came out too and wiped off the extra leaves and twigs. "I apologize for Alex, he's so impolite!" He exclaimed with fake sorrow. The other two came out of the bush out of boredom and since they were caught, might as well.
Sofie was honestly having a wtf moment. She muttered to herself "I really should have a bodyguard for these four!"
Matthieu said honestly "Sorry for my cousin's stupidity, all he ever does to a girl is stalk them and fuck them."
"Uhh," Was all Sofie could really say for his brutal honesty.
Oliver cried "Matthieu! How crass, a dollar!" And he got the jar again which was quite full.
Matthieu did and Sofie asked Oliver "When was that empty last?"
He turned around and said, still in a chipper mood "Oh, yesterday! You should've heard them when we were going to the school! Little potty mouths they are!"
Matthieu and Alex said simultaneously "Shut the fuck up!"
Oliver said "Wow! A double! And in front of a lady too!" As he put the jar in front of him.
The groaned and put a dollar each in the jar. Sofie said "Wow, you must make a lot of money then!" And laughed a little awkwardly because she still was honestly surprised that four people could fit in a bush.
Allistor was happening to walk to the gas station when he saw the four and Sofie together. He growled to himself and marched right where she was, he shouted behind Sofie "Didn't I tell you four to back off?"
Alex, being the smart ass he is, said "Yes, and we ignored it."
Allistor was getting redder by the second, he said "Maybe I should beat it into you!"
Sofie said "Maybe we shouldn't." As she waved her arms in front of her.
Both Alex and Allistor shouted at her "Stay out of it!"
Sofie blinked, it wasn't often when she was shouted at, and it kinda made her down. She mumbled "Fine, I'll stay out of it." And with that, she turned her heel and Alex and Allistor were busy fighting so they couldn't really have noticed. Louis and Matthieu were trying to break it up, but really couldn't, so they followed behind her along with Oliver.
She was honestly fed up with how many people screamed, she just wanted her friends to get along, but realized she couldn't with those two. Louis said plainly "Where are you going?"
"Home." She said.
"Home? But what about Alex and your big friend?" Oliver asked.
She turned to the three behind her, she was in tears. Louis found this strange, she had practically an aura of happiness and now, it's toxic for someone to be with her, for they would be sad for a long time until she was happy again.
"Let them be. They don't like each other and they don't think my opinion is important anymore." And walked with her head slightly down.
The three followed her anyway and she was at her house, the tears stopped when they were at her house. She asked the three "Wanna have coffee or something?"
It seemed that everyone was solemn for her, they nodded. She opened the door for the rest to come in and only Sofie took of her shoes.
Her grandma left a note that said 'Me and Grandpa are asleep in our room, if you need anything, just shake our shoulders!'
She smiled, but knew that when they sleep they can't be woken up until they wake up themselves. She shrugged and put the note back on the door. She said "There's coffee from this morning and chocolate cake in the fridge, you're welcome to eat any." and put her fuzzy dark blue slippers on instead.
Matthieu had his coffee black and Oliver poured a lot of sugar in his and creamer as well, Louis didn't have any. All of them sat in the kitchen, the tension was so thick that it could be cut with a knife. Oliver asked in a softer and less chipper tone than usual "Do you want to talk about it poppet?"
"I'm fine either way." As she poured coconut creamer in her coffee. She put two big spoonfuls of sugar in the cup and sat on the counter.
Matthieu said "All of us know you want to talk."
She asked "Is it that obvious?" and she smiled slightly at her cup. All of them nodded, Sofie took a deep breathe before saying "It seemed that most people got along when I was there. Even with Alfred and Allistor, they stopped fighting for me to embarrass each other." She laughed slightly "I just wished that he would stop fighting with Alex. I can just tell that he can't help it, and I know Allistor, he's just protective. But, eh, I guess it's fine."
Oliver said "If you don't like something, change it!"
Sofie laughed, "I stood up, but I was shot down."
They nodded. "Sofie," Matthieu said, she looked up from her coffee and sipped it. "It's kinda weird that your sad. Now, before you say anything, we haven't known you for a while. But. . . Your an open book of emotions. When your sad, you can practically make anyone sympathize with you and we have no sympathy. I think Alex will come through the door any minute with that red head and they'll feel pretty bad."
Sofie smiled sadly. She said "Maybe. . . I can't predict what people can do now because I thought everyone would ignore me for the rest of my life. And now look."
"People ignored you?" Louis asked her, very doubtfully.
She nodded, "Yeah," She said to him "People actually ignored me every since elementary, I couldn't even wave in front of their face without being ignored. It was like I was invisible, but ever since people joined my club, more people have noticed me."
Meanwhile, Allistor and Alex stopped fighting for a second to catch their breathe. Allistor realized that she was gone along with Alex's brother and cousins. His head was going faster than a speeding train, where could she be?
He shouted "What did ye do to her? She's gone!"
Alex was rubbing his head, he said "No shit she's gone. . . your guess is as good as mine. I don't kidnap girls."
Allistor said "Yeah right, and I bet ye didn't put a gash on that teacher's head!"
His enemy spat "How do you know that?"
"Sofie," He said "She was trying to defend ye!" He let that sink in. She barely knew him, but she defended him, despite him saying dirty comments. He also realized that he saved her from who knows what that disgrace of a teacher was going to do.
Alex was the most surprised out of what he said. Someone cared for him other than his family? And even defended him despite them knowing each other for a day. "What?" He said softer than usual in a 'I-don't-believe-it' tone.
Allistor sighed "Yeah" He said as he ran his fingers through his blood red hair. "And my fucking pride got in the way."
Alex said "It doesn't matter now, we have to find her. She and my family could have been kidnapped."
Allistor nodded and set off for her house first. Alex asked "Where are we going?"
"Her house." Allistor grunted "She could have just given up and gone to her house anyway and invited your family."
Alex really couldn't argue with his logic, so he followed him. They got to her house and Alex said "She really lives this close?" The other only nodded.
He opened the door despite if her grandparents would be angry if random people came to her house.
In the kitchen, she laughed a little and said "I guess your right Matthieu." To him. He smirked, something uncommon for him.
Alex and Allistor were searching the house up and down and finally came into the kitchen. They were worried and sorry. For his cousins, it was very odd that Alex would actually be sorry for something. They finally found her in the kitchen, talking with his cousins and drinking coffee.
Allistor said "Why did ye run off like that?"
Sofie gave a 'really?' look to them.
Everyone knew why she was sad and it did drag both of them down emotionally. Alex said "Doll, we were dumb-"
"To say the least." Oliver said as he sipped his coffee.
"I just wanted to protect ye lass." Allistor said to her.
"And I like fighting." Alex said.
"But it was no excuse ignoring her." Louis spat to the two.
"We know," Alex said.
"And. . . we're sorry." The scotsman said to her.
Sofie blinked, she didn't expect something this heartfelt from all of them, it felt honestly nice for her. She smiled at all of them, she said "Your forgiven, I could never be mad at you two for long."
It felt the tension was lifted, Alex and Allistor smiled thankfully. Oliver had a wide toothy smile with the other two only give a slight smirk.
Sofie asked the two "Want any chocolate cake? I think there's still a lot left."
"There isn't as much poppet." Oliver said to her "I ate about half and you took a piece too."
Sofie laughed "Half?"
He nodded with a smile, she said "I guess you like sweets too huh?"
Oliver nodded with enthusiasm. She said to the two "Oh well, there is some left if you want it."
They shook their head and took a chair. Allistor asked "Hey lassie, don't ye have a guitar?"
She nodded and asked the five "Wanna hear something?"
Some were obviously excited and others didn't show it as much. Sofie smiled and joked in the doorway "No fighting you two!" while she pointed at the dining table where Alex and Allistor was.
They laughed at that, she walked up the stairs and looked for her guitar.
In the short time she wasn't there, Alex and Allistor stared at each other menacingly, you could practically see the electricity between their glares. Louis took another drag "We need a code for you two when she's here. Like a smile means 'I hate you.'" He said to the two that just got here.
Allistor looked at him like he was crazy, he said "I can't lie to her!"
Oliver asked "Well, do you have an idea?"
Allistor took a little time to think of what to do, an idea popped into his head. He said "What about fighting when she isn't here and when she is here, we pretend nothing happened."
Alex said "Fine by me. As long as I can beat-"
Sofie was whistling a tune as she came into the kitchen, Alex changed what he was going to say "You at video games." and grinned sheepishly, but she couldn't tell because she was that excited.
