Eavesdropping
The boys waited as I unlocked the door and stepped inside.
"Sorry," I said. It's a little messy. It wasn't really, except the cigarette butts in the ashtray and a sweatshirt on the floor.
"I'm gonna go change. I'm still kinda damp. I'll be right back. Kitchens that way," I said pointing in the direction of the kitchen. "Eat whatever you want."
I ran up the stairs and quickly looked for clothes to wear. I didn't want to look like I put too much effort into it, but I didn't want to look like shit either. I mean River Phoenix's alter ego was sitting in the kitchen. Would you want to look like shit if River Phoenix was sitting in your kitchen?
I found a dark blue tank top and black sweat pants. I put my hair into a messy bun, smeared some peach lip-gloss on, and ran down stairs.
"Stop eating all of her food Teddy," I heard Gordie say.
"Why? She said to eat whatever we wanted," was Teddy's reply.
Instead of going in there I decided to sit on the stairs and eavesdrop. (I know you not supposed to do things like this, but I was very curious to see if they would say anything about me.)
"Your such a moron Teddy," I heard Chris say.
"That may be true, but I'm a hungry moron," Teddy said. "All that walking. And I'm a growing boy. I need to eat."
"No you're just a pig. And you're the one that kept insisting we walk her home, because she was and I quote " 'to hot to be walking home by herself.' "
"Well it's true," Teddy said. "She is hot. Don't you think so Chris?"
This was getting good, but I felt bad finding out what Chris thought about me, by being sneaky. I was also afraid he was say I was the most hideous thing he had ever seen, and he just wished I would crawl back into the hole I came from. Although even if he did think that I doubt he would say it (he was too nice) I wasn't taking any chances.
"So you guys found the food," I said interrupting Chris just as he was about to answer Teddy.
There was cookies, soda, and chips all over the table.
"Well Teddy did," Vern said.
"I'll apologize for him now, because he's gonna wind up eating all your food," Gordie said.
I laughed and said, "It's alright. I don't care," sitting down next to Chris and Vern and grabbing a soda that was on the table. I lit a cigarette and took a sip of my soda. I offered them a cigarette. They each took one and lit it.
"Did you go to the beach a lot," Vern asked me suddenly? It was random, but I guess it was just part of Vern's personality.
"Yeah. Me and my friends used to spend a week down there every summer," I said some what wistfully. I missed my friends and my house.
The boys stayed there until 10:30 when Vern finally said he had to be home a half hour ago.
"Alright. Bye guys. Thanks again for walking me home. Come over anytime. I could use the company," I said looking directly at Chris.
"No problem. And thanks for the food," said Gordie who had actually devoured just as much food as Teddy.
"See ya," said Chris.
"Not if I see you first," I said, quoting him once again. He smiled at me and they left.
***Alright well, hopefully Chris and Reviews Gloria will get together. I'm sure they will. Happy Thanksgiving Everyone! PLEASE!!***
