I woke up to the smell of some burning food. I sniffed a little and started to walk up the stairs slowly still sniffling a little to the nasty smell.
I walked up and felt a little heat and then looked at the stove to a blazing fire.
I looked around trying to find dad, but he was no where. I finally caught eye of were my dad was.
There he was sleeping on the counter with driplets of drool hanging from his mouth,
I ran to fetch some water and I dumped it all over the stove.
The fire finally went out and I ran to my sleeping dad.
"Dad?" I shouted as I shook him, He opened one eye and his head jerked up fast.
"What?" He asked as he looked around and noticed the stove. "What you ask WHAT?"
"Look at my damn stove!" He said as he went over to it and picked a few ashes that were left.
"Um…dad?" He looked at me with a mad face and then he put the ashes down and went to wash his hands.
"What in the hell did you do last night?" I asked as he slowly turned around from the sink wiping his hands on a dish towel.
He brought his hand to his head and slowly scratched it. "I…I don't know." He said as he looked around.
"Um… Well lets see you started cooking and left the stove on and FELL ASLEEP!!!" I shouted.
I really had never fought with my dad before, but this was stupid who in the hell falls asleep with the stove on!!
I just walked out of the room as he screamed "I don't know!!"
I walked down stairs and thought about how strange that was, he had no idea what he did the night before. I walked over to my dresser and relised what time It was eight thirty, to early for me, so I decided that I was going to take a walk or something just to relieve the stress.
I got in some sweats and started up the stairs. I walked into the kitchen to a still very confused dad.
"Bye dad, I'm going out." Then I slammed the door and walked down the street and headed out to where Gordie lived.
I walked on the long highway and just crossed my arms, because it was getting so chilly.
I looked straight ahead with my eyes burning a little.
Then I saw that damn black convertible coming fast. I started walking toward the field next to me so I could hide, but the car came to a stop.
"Oh, looky here." A blonde said getting out of the car solo, with nobody else in it.
"Please, just leave me alone." I said as he started from the other side coming toward me.
He didn't say anything he just came toward me with the look in his eye like he could hurt someone.
I started walking a little faster, still with my arms crossed then I noticed him coming up behind me faster, I finally broke into a fast run.
He started running toward me. "Got you!" He said as he pulled my arm and forced me to stop.
He twirled me around to look him staring him in his eyes.
"Please, just let me go." I said as I tried to get free, but his hands pressed harder and harder on my skin.
He just stared at me hardly ever saying anything. "What do you want??" I asked as he shook his head and then reached for something in his pocket couldn't quit see.
'Oh god please do not be a gun' I thought as I tried and tried to see.
He finally revieled a smoke. "You want one?" He asked as he let me go.
"No, I will be on my way now." I said as I started walking. "Oh, well I was going to offer you a ride." He said as he walked toward his car slowly.
I slowly turned around, It would be nice to go in the car it would be warm , but can I trust him?
I stood there in the empty street and thought as he leaned against his car.
I started walking not toward the car, but toward the houses in the distance.
I finally made it to where they all lived. I just walked over to Gordie's house and knocked twice.
"Coming!" I heard Gordie say as he came to the door.
"Hey." He said as he opened the screen door and walked out beside me.
"So what are you doing out here?" HE asked as he searched for a car. "And where is the car?" He asked as we stepped down from his porch.
"Oh, I walked." I said as I turned my head and then he stopped me.
"You walked four miles?" He asked as he laughed a little. "Yeah, it's been a stressful day." I said as I wiped the water from my eyes. I wasn't crying it was just it was so cold out there.
"It's freezing." I said as I rubbed my arms to keep them warm.
"Yeah." Gordie said in agreement. "You want to come in for awhile?" He asked as he pointed toward the white house.
"Uh… sure." I said as we walked over to his house. We walked into a very clean house, we went directly up the stairs and into his bedroom.
I went to his bed and sat on it as my teeth chattered. "Here." He said as he came and sat with me briging me a blanket.
"So why did you walk all this way?" He asked as he put his arm around me trying to warm me up.
"Well, my dad started a fire this morning and it really pissed me off and then I just had to get out of that damn house and see you, but then on the way here I ran into what-his-face, and he stopped me and made me even more mad." I said as Gordie chuckled a little and then hugged me.
"Well I'm glad you came to see me." He said as he rubbed my shoulders a little and he made me smile.
"Me too." I said as I chuckled and looked at him. "I suppose I'm going to kiss you now." He said as he laughed and gave me a kiss on the lips, short and sweet.
"That helps." I said as I leaned my head on his shoulders and felt secure.
"I'm glad." He said as he smiled and we sat there for hours talking and joking 'bout Chris and all his friends and what happened to them so many summers ago.
Then I got up out of his reach and went to a picture sitting on one of his shelves.
"Oh my ,God." I said covering my mouth and laughing a little.
"What?" He asked as he got up.
"Oh that horrible picture." He said as he snatched the picture from my grip.
"Hey." I said as I tried to reach for it. "To bad your not tall enough," He said as he laughed a little and started walking backwards.
"Damn, all I wanted to see was you when you were younger." I said as I still tried to reach it.
Then Gordie fell backwards on the floor tripping over one of his shoes.
"HAHAHA" I rang with laughter. "Oh, God, your right this is a bad picture." I said holding it up, it was a black and white picture of Gordie when he was around six, with a bowl shaped hair cut and his eyes so big, it looked like they were going to take over his head.
"Awe, but you had the cutest cheeks." I said as I bent down and started pinching his cheeks.
"I hope your talking 'bout my face." He said in pain. "I am, but I don't know the other set of cheeks could be cute too." I said as I put the picture on the shelf and helped Gordie from the ground.
That night Gordie drove me home.
"THanks for such a fun day." I said as I kissed him and jurried inside to find all of the girls watching TV.
"Have fun with your man?" Teeny asked not even looking from the TV.
"Yup, the best." I said running down the stairs and jumped on the bed and went straight to writing in my diary.
