Chapter 2
Laura's P.O.V.
"Today's the day I am gonna ask odd to help me find an after school job. I mean Bo is always willing to use his own money to get anything I want but I want be able to have money for myself. I slid of my bed and looked at my alarm clock seeing that it read 10:55.
Oh, no, I am gonna be late to meet Odd. I should have set it to get me up, but it is Sunday, and I wanted to sleep in. Oh well Odd won't mind.
Let's see what to wear? Oh man I need to do some laundry to day. Ok my light pink tank top and dark blue over shirt and some jeans. I was dressed and ready in a few minutes. I locked her door before I took off to met Odd.
I am glad that Bo and I found each other again. I missed him especially on my birthday he was a big goof back then. It hurt to know that he went to through so much pain alone, but it looks like he is slowly become the big brother that could always make me laugh.
"Hey Jeremy, hey Aelita." I shouted to the to genesis.
"Morning Laura." Jeremy and Aelita said at the same time.
"Have you seen Odd around? He said to meet him at the usual bench, but he wasn't there."
"No, I haven't seen him. What about you Jeremy?" Aelita asked.
"Me either." Jeremy replied.
"Oh well I will go back to the bench and wait a little while. If he doesn't show I will go bug Bo." Laura said smiling.
"Ok see ya. Aelita and I are going to the movies today." Jeremy said with a slight blush.
"Ok, you two have fun and try to actually watch the movie." Laura said with a smirk.
Jeremy and Aelita both turned red at that one and ran off to see there movie.
Suddenly my cell phone alerted me that I have a new text message. Taking my phone, I started to smile more it was from Odd. It said: "Meet him in the clearing near the pond in the woods. Love Odd." I took off in sprint to get to the pond so I could ask Odd to help me find an after school job. It didn't wake me long to get there. I am a pretty good runner. As I approached him, I stopped and put my hands on my knees to catch my breath. I looked up and smiled at him. He had that big Odd smile on his face like always.
"Hey Odd." I said.
"Hi" Odd said.
"So, what do you want to do, Laura?"
"Well, I was wondering if you would help me with something."
"I can try. What do you need help with, my Angel?"
"Well, I want find an after school job." I said smiling.
"What! Why the hell do you want an after school job! Odd shouted. My smile quickly disappeared as tear started to form in my eyes. Odd had never yelled at me before. He was always smiling around me, but now, here in front of me, he is yelling like there's no tomorrow. I had tuned out the rest as the tear's started to flow freely now. I had put my hands in to my face and fell to my knees crying so hard that I couldn't hear Odd anymore. All of a sudden, I heard something. It was Bo. He was running to me.
"Laura, are you ok?" Were the first words I had heard since Odd started to yell at me. I was scared that Bo would kill Odd, so I grab his shirt and kept crying. The next thing I heard was Bo saying beat it Odd or get a beating. Odd didn't seem to care. He just walked off. Bo put his arms around me and rocked me back and forth to try and comfort me. I took in Bo's smell. It was just like Dad's. A smell that was comforting and relaxing. As I was crying I fell asleep in my brother's arms.
"Daddy!" A 7 year old little girl yelled as she ran up to a tall man with black hair and jumping into his arms.
"Hey, my little Angel. How are you?" The man said.
"Daddy, look what I got from Bo." She said as she held up the locket.
"Wow! It's very pretty, Laura." Her father said.
"I know." Little Laura giggled as her father held her.
"You know that Bo will always watch over you. He will always protect you as will your mother and I."
"You promise?" Little Laura asked.
"I promise." Her father said and with that, he began to play with Laura until she started to fall asleep.
"Daddy, I love you." Little Laura said sleepy.
"I love you too, my little Angel." Her father said as he kissed her forehead.
"I woke up in my brother's dorm. I sat up and remembered what had happened, but just as I was about to start to cry, Bo walked in with Yumi and food for us. He sat it on his desk and asked me if I was ok. Then he came and sat by me with Yumi on my other side. I just dropped my head and started to cry again.
