Tales of Another Broken Home

Chapter 2

Pandora quickly shut the door behind her and leant against it as she caught her breath, hoping she had lost him. She had a feeling she was being followed home by none other than that blue headed twat. Yes, you know who I'm talking about. She had seen Kai walking straight past his car and in the direction she was going, and she saw him again in the corner shop right near her 'house'. She knew that if he found out where she lived, he would never let it go. Why the hell was he following her home anyway? It was like he was starting to become obsessed. An angry voice cracked through her thoughts and she looked up to see her dad at the top of the stairs with a can of beer in his hand.

"Why are you home so early?" Her father slurred whilst grabbing onto the banister for support.

"I – err… got a lift home from Maya." She lied.

"Who's Maya?" He asked falling backwards slightly. Ugh, she could smell the alcohol from where she was standing.

"My friend." Pandora replied bluntly and quickly went into the front room and threw her bag on the floor and jumped on the sofa only to have a beer can dig into her butt.

"Ah fuck! What the-?" She looked around and saw the floor was covered in discarded beer cans. "Aw man, I'm gonna have to clear all this up." She said to no one in particular. She heard a loud 'thump' coming from upstairs and presumed her dad had passed out somewhere, again.

Kai trudged slowly back to the school with his head down the whole way. He had lost the little goth somewhere around Maple Street. He didn't even know why he was following her home, he had nothing else better to do and he needed to kill time until his date with Crystal later on this evening, so for some strange reason he decided to follow Pandora. It wasn't exactly a nice area she was in, if she actually lived somewhere around here. All the houses were run down and looked like they could collapse any minute. Kai mentally thanked God that he was rich.

When he retrieved his car and drove it home, he went straight upstairs to have a shower so he wouldn't be all sweaty for his date. He wasn't all that excited about going on a date with Crystal. Sure she had nice assets and a pretty face, but damn, she was annoying as hell! Her, Mariah and Charlie had to be the most annoying girls he had ever met in his life. But nice bodies though…

When he was just about finished, he heard the doorbell ring and went down to answer it and standing there was Crystal looking extremely hot. She had a short, black, tight fitting dress on and she had let her light blue hair down and it bounced just above her shoulders as she walked.

"Ready to go?" She asked in her annoyingly high pitched voice. Almost perfect…

The two had decided to go to a small restaurant, with some weird French name, and then go back to his for the night. When they got inside and ordered, they found out that all the waiters spoke in phoney French accents which made them sound retarded. Crystal sniggered every time they spoke making her sound very immature. After a while, Kai started to feel embarrassed to be with her.

"Che, that film totally sucked!" Pandora said very loudly as her and Maya exited the cinema from just seeing 'The Forgotten'. (Okay, I haven't actually seen that film so I don't know whether it sucked or not, but I couldn't think of anything else so I just put that.)

"I know! The adverts made it sound really good, but I didn't understand any of it." Maya replied.

"You never understand any films Maya…"

"You point being…?"

Ugh, never mind." Pandora shook her head laughing. The two walked along whilst linking arms back to Maya's house and they passed a cosy looking restaurant. As they were passing by, they looked inside slightly and saw that Kai was on a date with Crystal! The two burst out laughing when they saw this.,

"I can't believe that he's on a date with Crystal of all people! How can he stand her voice?! It sounds like she's constantly on helium or something." Pandora said between giggles.

"I know. I can't even stand being around her longer than 5 minutes." Maya said shuddering. The girls continued walking, still laughing about the scene they just saw. Pandora could have sworn she saw Kai looking at her with pain and embarrassment in his eyes? She wasn't sure. But he must have been pretty desperate to go on a date with her.

Kai's attention suddenly was taken away from Crystal's shrill voice to some girls outside giggling furiously. He recognised one of them as Maya, a little greebo in his year and he couldn't see the other one properly, but she was very small. Oh shit. It couldn't be her, could it? Yes it was. Pandora was on the other side of Maya laughing her heart out. God, she looked gorgeous when she laughed. NO! Must. Stop. Nasty. Thoughts.

oooooooooooooo

When Pandora returned home she house smelt like a mixture of alcohol, sick and piss. She walked into the front room and remembered that she still needed to clear up all the beer cans and stuff. She sighed and got a bag from the kitchen and started to gather all the empty cans and put them in the bag, until an arm snaked its way round her waist.

"Evenin' love. Where have you been?" The voice lowly. She recognised it as her fathers, what the hell is he doing?

"I've been at Maya's." Pandora said in the most innocent voice she could muster.

"I was never informed," She voice drawled in her ear making her shudder.

"You were. I told you earlier, you might have been drunk or something and forgotten."

"You stupid bitch! You tell me when you go out so I can know where you are all the time. You're grounded!" Her father shouted at her before smacking her roughly round the face causing something to crack. Tears formed in Pandora's eyes but she would never let them spill in front of him. She knew that he would only be proud that he caused her pain, so she hurried to her room and slammed the door behind her. She felt the inside of her mouth with her tongue and discovered that one of her teeth had cracked from the force of the hit.

"Damn it," She cursed under her breath before looking in the mirror and examining her mouth properly. Her teeth were now outlined in crimson blood which made her look like a vampire. She sighed and started to clean herself up and pack her bag for school the next day.

oooooooooooooo

The next day, Pandora left her house extra early for school and for once, met up with Maya on time.

"Woah! What happened to your face? Was it your dad again?" Maya asked seriously, Pandora's face was extremely swollen on the left side and a bruise was forming on her cheek. Maya had always known about the situation between Pandora and her father since she had once witnessed him hitting her before.

"Yeah." Pandora replied looking at the ground. "Don't tell any of the others, just say I fell down the stairs or something."

"Okay," Maya smiled. "Well, at least he didn't get the side with your lip ring on otherwise your face would look like one of those puffer fish things.."

They both laughed. Maya always knew the right thing to say, and that's why she was her best friend and could trust her with secrets like this.

When they arrived at school Pandora received some strange stares from some people, but she brushed past them. She didn't really care what people thought, and anyway, if it she wanted, she could get Miguel to beat them up if they were considerably bigger than her.

"Wow Pandora, you're here ear-what happened?" Mariam asked with a worried look on her face, nothing the swollen and bruised area.

"Oh, it's nothing. I just slipped when I was coming down the stairs and bashed by cheek on the banister." Pandora lied.

"Are you okay?" Enrique asked holding out his finger, going to poke the swollen area.

"Don't even think about it." Pandora warned and Enrique instantly dropped his hand to his side.

The bell rung and Pandora and Enrique departed from their friends and made their way to their form room.

"Please can I touch it?" Enrique whined.

"No!" Pandora snapped batting his hands away as they entered the room. The two took their usual seats and fortunately, Kai didn't arrive all form time, so she was able to have a proper conversation with Tala without having that annoying jerk butt in every five seconds with his lame insults. Of course, Tala asked what happened, and she told the same lie again and he lapped it up. Lying was so easy! Or everyone was just so gullible…

"Come on Enni, we have Maths." Pandora groaned and followed Enrique out of the room, only to bump into the blue haired moron, Kai.

"Move." She ordered bluntly, keeping her head down.

"Aww, no insults for me today? I'm hurt." Kai said in mock sadness.

"Just shut the hell up and move!" She said with a tint more anger in her tone this time. Kai looked down and noticed she hadn't even looked at him yet, so he put his fingers under her chin and brought her face so it was looking directly at him. He gasped inaudibly when he saw her left cheek.

"What happened?" He asked, his voice full of concern.

"That's my concern, not yours. Why do you care anyway, just get out of my way and fuck off Kai." Pandora sighed. Kai slowly let her pass and she trudged off with Enrique. He watched her retreating back with a longing in his eyes before getting registered.

oooooooooooooo

The day passed extremely slowly with people constantly asking about Pandora's face. Maya was starting to get sick of it so she practically shouted at everyone who asked, and people stopped after hearing what the result would be. They didn't want to become deaf at the age of 16. Well, at least it was only 2 days until it was Friday and they would be going to their usual club; The Underground, although it isn't actually underground, how ironic…

"Do you know what you're gonna wear on Friday?" Asked an excited Julia. She always got excited when they talked about going to The Underground, God knows why.

"Err, I haven't really thought that far ahead." Maya said sheepishly.

"How about you two?" She asked facing Mariam and Pandora. They both shrugged in unison before Mariam replied.

"I have to agree with Maya, I haven't really thought that far ahead either."

"Ugh, you guys are hopeless!!" Julia said throwing her arms in the air to exaggerate her point. They all snickered before going off to their next class, I.T. Pandora loved this subject, their teacher was a right push over, all her friends were in this class and they could just sit on the computers going on game sites and messaging each other for the whole double lesson.

The class filed in and sat at their normal computers, usually Enrique and Miguel sat over the opposite side of the room with Tyson, Max and Hilary whilst Mariam, Julia, Pandora and Maya sat on the other side. Pandora logged in to her msn and started chatting to Johnny and Tala as they and Kai were in this class as well.

Pandora minimized the conversation she was having with Tala to look at some of the games on Newgrounds. Eee gad! They had a Freddy Krueger game! She HAD to play that!!

Pandora scowled at her computer screen before blocking him and putting her in her 'Twats' list along with Michael and Ozuma. Ugh, she hated players-with the exception of Tala and Johnny, they're the only decent two she's ever met.

Kai narrowed his eyes when he saw that Pandora had logged off, he turned around and looked across the classroom at her screen and could visibly see the msn logo and suspected she had just blocked him. Damn her. She really knew how to piss him off. He looked over his shoulder at her, and could see her sniggering at her screen along with Maya, Mariam and Julia. He turned back to his screen and made sure his ears were closest to them so he could eavesdrop on their conversation. They were talking something about clothes, typical, and a club? The Underground? This Friday? Perfect.
