Rag doll chapter 6. Valerie by Amy Winehouse.
"when's your mum gettin' home?".
"I don't know".
"so…. you have the whole place to yourself?".
"I'm not having sex with you".
The couple where sitting on Ada's sofa watching T.V. it had been three days since the Castle Rock fair and they'd been together most of it. they only time they didn't was when it was in between classes and Eyeball would be in the school hallways with the Cobras. The couple weren't ready to reveal their relationship to the public eye. So that meant the chambers boy would have to ignore her during the day.
then you had after school.
Usually Eyeball would give Ace and the gang some sort of excuse. Saying that he had to take care of his little sisters so he could hang out that day. of course he couldn't do that all the time or they'd get suspicious. Normally when he'd hang out with them they'd all just sit around smoking, fixing cars or talk about chicks.
It would get a bit harder when the guys would want to go to the bar. Knowing that once they began playing pool and drinking he'd lose track of time. the chambers boy could be ditsy that way sometimes.
But now it was just the two of them, sitting on the couch watching a movie. Eyeball had slowly moved his hand closer to Ada until he could lace his fingers with hers. She didn't seem to mind.
"I wasn't tryin' to have sex with ya". he defended himself.
"yes you were".
"…. Fine I was. Sue me for wanting to love you in the way you deserve".
"ohh sweet talking me, now I'll do it". the blond said sarcastically while rolling her eyes. A moment later she grinned and jokily slapped him. "does that crap ever work on girls…. Does it really?". Ada asked skeptically.
"umm sometimes". He shrugged.
Ada scoffed. "damn some girls are stupid". She shook her head like she was embarrassed for them.
"yeah". He laughed.
The green eyes good hesitantly turned to him. not wanting to know if she should asked him what was on her mind or not. 'what can it hurt?, it isn't like you're the jealous anyway… well I guess to be fare…. You've never had anybody to be jealous of. he is your first boyfriend after all'. "how many…..". she all of a sudden felt awkward asking. He looked at her. "how many have… how many girls have you…. done it with?". Ada could feel her face getting warm as he stared back at her.
Eyeball stiffened at her question. 'ohh crap'. "a few". He waiting for her reaction.
"would I….. know any of them?.
"um..".
"no wait…. Don't tell me… it's none of my business, it was… rude of me to ask". 'god why are you the most embarrassing person?'. Ada asked herself.
"6".
"huh?".
"I'm been with 6 girls before…. But they…".
"look". she shifted ford on the sofa. "you don't have to tell me anything. It's…. your privet…. Business".
"no I want to tell you". the chambers boy shifted as well.
"why?". the blond asked him like it was the most ridiculous thing in the world. 'does he want to hurt me?, does he want to make me jealous….. not that it does. and it doesn't hurt me either'.
"because I want you to know that the only chicks I was with…. were the ones that slept with everybody".
"EW". Ada made a face.
"yeah see….. no point in thinkin' about'em". He smirked after a moment. "but seein' you get all…. Jealous is kinda….a turn on". he leant over and began to kiss her neck.
"I'm not jealous". She huffed in an matter o fact tone.
"keep tellin' ya self that babe".
"hey don't suck". She told him. "I don't want you to give me a hicky. It's mums see it… or somebody at school…".
"ain't nobody gonna see it. you always where turtle necks anyway". He said with his face still deep in her neck. Moving her long blond hair out of the way.
"Eyeball…". She started.
"fine, fine I won't leave anything". He continued and moved up to her sort lips. "why don't you…. ever have your hair down at school?".
"because I don't want to cause attention to myself".
"then why don't you just…".
"I don't want to cut it". she finished what she knew he was going to say. "I love my long her".
"good". He moved from her lips to make eye contact with her. "because I love it too". It had begun to softy rain outside. As the pair snogged Ada would glanced over to the window and watch the rain.
"what is it with you and rain?".
"it's calming…. And beautiful".
"your so weird". He chuckled and continued on with what they were doing. He paused 5 minutes later. "have you ever?...". he let that hang in the air.
"well you know the answer to that don't you?". Ada chuckled.
"just making sure". just as he was going back in to kiss her he jumped back in surprise.
"Jesus crap shit".
"what, what, what did I do now?". he said in shook with his hand up in the air.
"nothing it's her Nora's back". she jumped off of the sofa. Just as Eyeball was going in for another kiss Ada just happened to glance out of the window again. just to see Nora pulled up in her car and shut the driver side door
"ohh crap". He joined her and got up from the couch.
"quick grab your shit". She said. "we'll go out the back way, hurry". The chambers boy grabbed his jacket and shoes and followed her down the hallway to the back door. she swung it open and all but pushed him out and on to the wet grass. "see you in class tomorrow". She slammed it shut.
"I'll call you later!". He yelled to her form the other side and began to across the field to his car. 'why didn't I just put my socks on before a started to walk?'. Every step he took his feet became more and more soaked and muddy. Squelching and squishing further and further in to the muck. The hoodlum made to his car and took his socks off before putting his feet on the floor. He tossed them in the back seat with his shoes and jacket and began to drive.
Ada Bloom in her room.
'fuck that was a close one'. she tried to get upstairs but that was when she heard the front door shut. 'ohh crap'.
"how was school?". Nora asked as she walked past and in to the kitchen. Not bothering to stop and her the answer. It was obvious she didn't really care about whether or not her off spring had a good day at school or not.
'was there really that much of a point in asking?'. The younger girl thought. Instead of following her mother she went made her way up to her room. She shut her bedroom door and lent against it. 'that one was too close, Eyeball and I have to find a better place to do this if where gonna do this. She'd make me give him up if she finds out. I wish I just knew why she was like this. I wish that whatever happened to her didn't happen. I wish she could be like other mothers. I don't see why I can't be happy and have friends and a boyfriend. I don't see why she doesn't want me to have those things, I don't understand the big deal of it all'. Ada ran over to her bed and laid down on her stomach, clutching her pillow.
I'm not giving him up, he's fun he makes me smile. Which is something I've very much come to enjoy. She…. Nora can't make me smile. She's never even tried'. She then remembered what Eyeball said about calling her. 'let's just hope he forgets…. Or at least I can get to the phone before Nora'.
Eyeball chambers later that night.
"still nothing, still nothing it's been almost 4 months and still nothing". Billy complained shooting pool. He hadn't shut up about him and Connie in the last 30 minutes.
"buddy what I'd tell ya…. go with a Jew". Ace took his shoot and took a swig of his purple Jesuses.
"my dogs are getting' pretty dirty again…. interested in makin' another bet Eyeball?".
"HA, HA, HA". The chambers boy laughed sarcastically. "I ain't goin' near those mutts again".
"Perry?".
"I want to kill Perry". He simply said.
"I did worn you about the humping".
"can we not…. Bring that up please". He cringed.
"hey every one remember when Eyeball got humped by my dog?". he laughed and the rest if the guys snickered.
"hey every one remember when I punched Charlie so hard that he cried?".
"what?, you never…. AOCH". The tall blond furiously rubbed his arm. Charlie looked down at his arm then back up at Eyeball.
"HAHA didn't cry".
The chambers boy took a step towards his blond friend.
"no don't". Charlie took several steps away from him, walking backwards.
The chambers boy pointed at him in a warning way and went back to drinking.
"hey there's a boxing match in main next weekend.. we goin' or what?". Asked Vince.
"course we are why wouldn't we?". Ace frowned at him like he was an idiot.
"hey just cheeking man". Vince grinned.
They all continued to play pool. Ace and Billy finished their turn of the game and now it was Eyeball and fuzzy's turn. It was about 20 minutes later before Charlie spoke to Eyeball again.
"why'd you tie them to the porch?".
"what?". Asked Mudgett.
"not talkin' to you I'm talkin' to Eyeball".
"tie who to where?". The chambers boy was too focus on getting his shot to listen to what Charlie had said. he got the shot.
"my dogs…. When I got home they were tied to the porch".
"so I tied'em to the porch, big freaking deal". He took another shot. Except he didn't tie them to Charlie's porch..….. Ada did. "does it matter?". 'why is he bringing this up now?. and why does it matter?, they still got home didn't they'.
"I told ya to take'em around back remember?".
"why would I remember that, I probably wasn't even listenin' in the first place. Come on Charlie… get your head out of your ass".
"just sayin'".
"just sayin' what?". 'what's' he sayin'?. why is he sayin' anythin'?. Does he know….. no…no why would he know. come on Eyeball, get your head out of your ass. He doesn't know shit. Your just being paranoid'.
"just sayin' that I thought you woulda remembered is all".
"why?".
"because of my hot neighbor who sunbaths on her roof. I told ya about her".
"know you didn't". the chambers boy argued. Charlie did tell him about his hot neighbor but at the time Eyeball was day dreaming about the green eyes girl. He had completely missed the lanky blond talking about the next door neighbor.
"and why the hell..". Vince slowly stepped towards Charlie. "have we never heard of this…. Hot neighbor before?". He crossed his arms. Now all the boys were glaring at the tall blond. All except for Eyeball who really couldn't care less. 'now if this happened before Ada…. Then I'd give a damn. But I didn't find out so….. no big deal'.
"because I didn't want to share the experience of What is her". he said not bothering to hide his true feelings.
As the guys started to argue about this the chambers boy began to zone out, thinking of his girl. 'I wonder what's she's doin' right now?. I wonder what happened after I left. Did her mother see me?, did they get in to a screamin' match?. Or maybe Ada just went up to her room and ignore her for the rest of the day?. god she is my dream chick. She can be rude, she can give a give an insult just as fast as she can get one. we have a Similar home life, even if she doesn't believe me…. Just yet. We really haven't talk about it but that doesn't matter right now though. She doesn't giggle at every little thing I say…. Even when I know it isn't funny. She'd just tell me to fuck off instead and call me an idiot….. she's real loving that way. but I mean that though. She took real good care of me when Charlie stupid mutts made me feel like I was dying. She doesn't make me feel like shit if I can't do something…. Like being nice to people I hate. And on top of all of it….. she's fine as hell. I'm a guy…. I don't need to see under her clothes to know that her body is banging. What's why she wear's all these bagging clothes. Because if she didn't her banging body would cause attention because of her banging body. HA. Like I said…. I'm a guy, I can tell these things. It look longer then I thought it would for myself to figure it out. But I knew I would in the end. jugs can't hide from me'. His mind then wondered to her taking off her clothes…. And heading in to the shower. ' ya know…. she did get kinda hot today while we were making out, maybe she got kinda sweaty?, maybe she decided to have a shower because of all the sweat. Right now she could be… taking off all of her clothes… slowly. Very, very slowly. Maybe she…. Tugging her panties down her smooth long legs and hoping in to the shoulder… the hot…. Hot shower'.
"EYEBALL!".
He snapped out of it. "what, what, what is it?".
"I've been waitin' for ay to take your shot and we've all been staring at ya for the last few minutes". Fuzzy said frowning at him.
"yeah man you like…. Died kinda".
"what, no I wasn't, I've been listing the whole time. what made ya all think I died. I was right here not dead, listening to all of you… the whole, whole time, not going anywhere, I wasn't zoned out….".
"wow, wow, wow buddy". Billy grabbed his shoulder. "you just repeated that like…. 1000 times. What's goin' on with ya?".
"yeah it's like every time we hang out your somewhere else. Like you said…. zoned out. It's starin' to get real weird man". Vince took a swig of his beer.
"what no it isn't… nothing weird here…. we're all good". He shrugged. 'fuck…. Damn her beautiful hot naked ass body…. And that steamy, steamy shower'.
"EYEBALL!".
"what no I didn't zone out again like why would you even ask that what's wrong with you like chill out okay".
"who are you even talking to now?". Charlie squinting at him.
Eyeball…. a moment please". Ace asked slowly with raised eyebrows.
'god damn it…. everything was goin' so well. And now I have to be stuck alone with Ace talkin' about what's wrong with me. I'm gonna crack, I know I'm gonna crack. I gotta get outta here…. but how. The window…. There's a window in the bathroom. It wouldn't be the first time I've had to crime out of a window to get away from a friend… long story. Okay, okay I can do this…. Just make up something ya know he'll believe'. "mind if I go to the men's room first?, gotta take a piss".
"make it quick then meet me out side". He hissed, and stalked his way to the door.
"fella's". he said his goodbye and ran to the men's room, and the moment the door close behind him he was already pulling himself out of the window.
Ada Bloom in her room.
Ada bloom was sitting up in her bed reading a book when she heard a noise at her window. 'what the hell'. She hoped out of her bed and strolled over, peering out of it. she was wearing her bright red dressing gown. 'you got to be kidding me'. The blond rolled her eyes. "Eyeball….. what the hell?". She angrily whispered. 'I don't need my mum hearing this shit'.
"I wanted to see ya. thought that I'd much rather hear ya voice in person then over the phone". he whispered back. "come on I'm coming up".
"you are not, if my mum finds out…".
"don't be such a goody, goody". He began to climb the willow tree just outside of her window.
"well if she does catch you I'm acting like I don't know you, I will scream stranger danger".
he got up to her window. He noticed her dry blond hair. "ohh…. Have you already had your shower?".
'what?'. She stared at him trying to figure out what her boyfriend meant by that. 'have I had my shower yet?". Then it clicked. 'ew that pig'. "so you were thinking about me naked".
"can ya blame me?, help me in it's cold out here". he held out his hand.
"fine but be quiet". Ada grabbed his hand and pulled him in, but let go when he was half way through. the chambers boy slipped on the way in and landed on the floor was a thud. "what did I just say about being quiet". The green eyed girl tried not to laugh.
"hey girly…. You were the one who let go". He jumped up and kissed her then walked passed her and flopped down on her bed. "light purple covers….. interesting choice. Always pictured you as a green girl myself".
"I do like the colour green, I just felt like a purple night". She crossed her arms. She raced to the door and locked it.
"hey". He said, she looked up at him. "come over here". she did what he asked and once she reached him he pulled her on to his lap. So that now she was straddling him. "Ada…". He said her name seriously.
"I don't like the way you just said my name". she raised her eyebrows.
"it's getting harder….. to…. keep us…. secret from the guys. I think their startin' to catch on".
"what would they do if they found out on their own?, or through somebody else?".
"the truth?".
She nodded.
"probably nothin'….. but I know their gonna pissed I lied to them for so long".
"so long?... it's been 3 days".
"let's be honest….. I've been blowing them off to see ya for more than 3 days. I don't think it's be that bad. They'll just get a few free shots in…. nothin' I can't handle?".
"free shots?".
"yeah ya know…". Eyeball punched the air a few time to show her what he meant.
Ada inhaled sharply. "their gonna beat you up?. No". she hoped off of his lap and took several steps away from him. "I don't want you to get hurt, not because of me".
"hey I lied so I'm gonna get a beat down for it….. just the way it is". He shrugged. "hey I'm cool with it…. ya dig me".
"well I'm not…. Cool with it".
"Ada..".
"when should we tell them?".
"Uh?". He was officially by this girl. 'now she wants to tell them?'.
"if you tell them then you can blame it on me".
"blame it on you". Eyeball stood from the bed
"yeah you say it was me, you tell them I made you keep us a secret and if you told anyone tell them I'd…I'd….". the blond girl didn't know what to say… and then it hit her. "tell them I wouldn't have sex with you. boys a gross they'd understand that right…. Right?".
There was a long pause…..a long pause. "sorry". He snapped out of it. "I stopped listenin' after you said the words 'sex with you'… are we…. Gonna do it".
"see right there….. boys are gross, the moment I said sex you got all… guy on me. Sex makes boys weird, I've read plenty of books that have showed me that. that way you won't get beat up".
"Ada….. I'm fine with it kay… but really are we gonna have sex?".
"sex really is what all guys think about". she shook her head and closed her green eyes. Ada gazed back up at him. "but why?... why are you so okay with getting punched in the face?".
"first of all… it probably won't be the face. knowing Ace he's gonna go straight for my balls. second of all… that's just how guys are…. expressly the gang. ya don't lie to your friends, and you don't blow them off to spend time with girls. when you do lie ya get punch. They get it all out then we're all fine. It's just how we are, and it's how it's always been. And it ain't just us it's all guys. shit Ada I can't take it… wouldn't be the first time". Eyeball shrugged at the last part.
'what does that mean?".
"it means boys will be boys". He placed his arms around her. "we're all gotten a few kicks in to each other at some point. No big deal".
"boys will be boys". She said to herself.
"hey….". he lent in and kissed her. "you'd let me blame you?". the dark headed boy smirked and raised his eyebrows. "I don't think I've never met a chick who would do that for a guy…. Even if it was for fake sex".
"well I don't want me boyfriend getting beaten up on all because of me. Even if it is the stupid…. Boys will be boys crap".
He scoffed.
"what?".
"you said boyfriend….. I like that". Eyeball got a little closer to her. Ada felt her face go hot and looked down. "hey don't do that". he grinned and lifted her head up using his fingers. "I think you calling me your boyfriends so hot". He began to give her sweet kisses all along her neck.
And just as she was malting in to it there was a loud bang at her bedroom door. "Ada I've been called away!". Nora tried to open the door but it was locked. "Ada why is this door locked?!". She called.
"because I'm about to go in to the shower". Her daughter answered without a beat. Eyeball smirked and raised his eyebrows at her.
"ohh really". He whispered quietly. She whacked him in the arm.
"well I'm going out again and I'll be spending the night. and I won't be back until the weekend. I left money like always".
They teenagers listened to her footsteps fade away, getting further and further down the hall.
"So can I stay over?".
"you don't waste time do you?".
"hey in my house not wasting time is a survival technique". He walked to the other side of the room and throw his jacket on the chair in the corner.
"what does that mean?". Ada asked hesitantly. ' I knew what that meant… I knew what he meant by that. he'd mentioned it to me before….. but I guess I just didn't want to know about it. after living in a house with it for so long after a while you just don't give shit if it happens to other because of how often it happened to you. but even if he hadn't already told me I'd heard the stories….. just like the rest of Castle Rock. I knew that old man chambers was a drunk….. I knew that nobody ever saw him without a bottle in his hand and that he'd been fired from almost every job he'd ever had because of it. I knew that his wife was scared of him…. and that he mistreated his kids. I guess that I just didn't want to believe it'. she felt a pang of guilt hit her like a truck.
"that my dad's a drunken piece of shit who constantly beats me and my brother and mother whenever he pleases just cos he can". He said all this like it was nothing. As if he were ordering a pizza.
"Eyeball…. I'm so…".
"hey it's fine….. it ain't you're the one doin' it right". He stretched. "He doesn't touch my sisters though…. Or at least…. Not yet".
"Eyeball….".
"they ain't enough for him to hit yet…".
"Eyeball….".
He kept cutting her off. "hey ya don't have to stress about that though… I don't. I ain't gonna let him touch them…". he stopped when Ada ran right up to him and swung her arms around his neck.
"Eyeball….. I sorry I blow you off when you said something about it the first time".
"Ada you don't have to feel sorry. It ain't like you live with us. it ain't like ya knew or something. I don't; blame you". he laughed like she was being ridiculous.
"I can't help but feel…". The greened eyes beauty looked away, not being able to finish her sentence.
'damn this girls cute'. He smiled and kissed her temple.
"where are your friends tonight". she needed to change the subject. Before she got too emotional.
"they were all still at the bar… before I snuck out the window". Eyeball laughed.
"I'm sorry….. you what?". Ada stepped back to look up at him.
He laughed again. "yeah Ace wanted to talk to me outside, and I'd had a few so he probably knew I'd say something. So I snuck out of the bathroom window before I could tell him anything".
"do you think he's still waiting outside for you?". she laughed.
"doubt it….. but he can wait… wanna…". The chambers boy lifted his eyebrows again. "go to bed?".
"wanna….". Ada did the same things with hers. "sleep on the bathroom floor?".
He scoffed. "fine…. I'll crash on the floor".
"sure as shit you will". The blond walked over to her bed and throw one of her pillows at him. "and don't think that I won't kick you back on to the floor if I feel you climb on to my bed in the middle of the night".
"what if I have a nightmare?". Eyeball asked her with a straight face.
"then you can scream". She throw him a blanket. "goodnight….. Eyeball chambers".
He watched as she claimed in to bed….. wearing her red dressing gown. "you sleep in your dressin' gown?".
"well no…. not usually".
"then why?...".
"because… your…. Well…".
"ohhhh you sleep naked". He nodded understandably. "it's like we're the same person". He smirked and began to pull his shirt off.
"I don't sleep naked I just….. I just….no one's ever see me in…. my PJ's".
"why so shy about them though….. what do you sleep in lingerie or something?".
"no I sleep in normal PJ's, it's just…. You and I… we're not exactly….. interment".
"what does not screwing have anything to do with seeing you in your PJ's?".
"it isn't my PJ's I'm it's my body….. you'd be able to me my…. Curves". 'could this be any more embarrassing?'.
"what are they see through PJ's or something?".
"Eyeball…!".
"fine, fine I'm turnin' around, if you ain't comfortable with me seein' ya I'll turn around. see look at me…. Turnin' around". ye placed his hand over his eyes and turned.
"I'm in".
He turned back and finished taking off his clothes. He got under his blanket and placed his head on the pillow.
"a few more days". Ada suddenly said.
"uh?".
"we can go public in a few days okay. I just want it to be us a little longer. Plus if my mums hears about us she'll try and end it… I think".
The chambers boy stayed quiet for a while.
"let's wag".
"you wanna what?".
"let's wag…. Ya know…. not go to school. It's only 2 days, nobody's gonna give a shit. Besides… I gotta avoid Ace and the guys as best I can after that stunt I pulled on them tonight. their gonna want answers".
"what about your little sisters?... and your brother?".
"Chris will be fine, it wouldn't be the first time I've left for a couple of days and hadn't come back. he'd look after them. dad will be passed out most of the time anyway. It was paid day today. that means he's loaded up on booze for the next few days".
"I've never wagged before".
"it's easy… if the school call just tell'em you're sick. They ain't gonna give a shit".
"I don't know".
"think of it this way". he sat up to look at her. "our first romantic weekend as a couple". He grinned.
"very cute". She spoke dryly.
"come on…. I am".
"fine…. We can still in my house for the next few days….. but don't think I'm gonna have sex with you… okay".
The chambers boy chuckled. "why miss Bloom…. I ain't that kind of a boy".
She scoffed. "goodnight Eyeball". She flicked off her lamp switch and the room became swallowed in to darkness.
The next day.
"you taste good".
"it's the vanilla….. and saying that's creepy".
the dark headed boy chuckled.
The couple had been hanging out all day together. Meanly watching whatever was on the T.V or talking. They both enjoyed spending time together, either of them thought they'd ever get sick of each other's banter. it could go on for hours and hours and either teen would waver.
The pair was now making out on her bed. Very time Eyeball's hands got a little too high the blond girl would knock them back down, then laugh at him.
"you really think I'm that easy don't you?".
"it ain't that I think your easy… it's that I think your different".
"ohh let me guess… I'm different from all the others girl you've meet before. You've never met a chick like me in your life…. Am I on the right track?".
You just don't seem like…the most traditional chick that's all". He kissed her collar bone.
"And because of this you think that my panties are just going to fly away?".
The chambers boys seemed to zone out completely.
Asa rolled her green eyes and lightly slapped him on his cheek. "stopped picturing it".
He chuckled.
"come with me tomorrow night?". Eyeball sudden said.
"come with you were and why?".
"I got work". he continued to kiss her.
She pushed him away. "you got work?". Ada asked in disbelief. "since when do you have a job, and don't give me the you never asked speech either. Go on…. spill". She sat up.
"it ain't no big deal. I got myself a job down at Bob's auto repairs few months back. wanna get me a place of me own. Get out of living with my old man". He shrugged.
"you sure that's a good idea?. Eyeball…. We don't need people seeing us together before we have the chance to tell anyone. We just talked about this yesterday".
"no ones gonna be there, just you and me". He grinned.
"what are we…. Breaking in?". she asked in confusion.
"no Bob goes out Friday nights and leave me to work after hours. And Ace and Mudgett don't work until next Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. We'll be cool for the night".
"wait". Ada now completely sitting up on her bed. "Ace and Mudgett work there to?".
"yeah". The chambers boy now sat up to. "old man Bob is Mudgett's uncle. He hired him then he talked his uncle in to givin' me and Ace jobs. He's a pretty cool guy. Don't really talk to much but let's us get away with stuff… more than any other adult would". he smirked to himself. remembering all the stupid shit he and his friends would get up to.
"what does that me….?".
"nothing". He replied before Ada could even finish what she was saying. He had a wide smile hoping that his girlfriend didn't want to asked anymore question about what he and the guys would get up to.
"I don't even want to know do I?".
"Not even a little". He pecked her pink lips. "come on". he grabbed her hand and jumped off of the bed.
"were are we going now?. Eyeball I don't wanna leave the house, somebody could see us and wonder why we're at school".
"Relax….. we ain't goin' nowhere". Half way down the hall he turned back to the blond and grinned. "I just wanna feel you up in every room of the house".
10:45, later that night.
Ada was reading yet again sitting in front of her fire place. It was a cold night so the green eyed girl decided it would be nice to chill in front of the warmth of the fire. Ada was propped up leaning on a pillow from the sofa engrossed in her reading.
While her legs were propped up on Eyeball.
Who had fallen asleep 40 minutes earlier. They'd been talking for a while, before she began reading Ada had gotten a book from her room for him too. The chambers boy read part of it but become bored not long after. Deciding that It just wasn't his thing. He laid back on to the soft ugly orange carpet. He asked Ada why'd she like something that looked like the colure of vomit. But she didn't like it…. she absolutely despised. Nora had picked it out one day while window shopping at the local market place.
The very moment Ada saw it was the first time she ever truly questioned whether or not her mother was colour blind.
So…. Eyeball began to try and assumed himself. after poking after her living room and asking her questions about why this certain ugly colour palette. For this chair, or this curtain. Once he lost all interest in that he began to play with her legs and feet.
After kicking him away from her several time he eventually gave up.
The dark headed boy fell asleep not to soon after that.
And since it was a convenient to Ada she swung her legs over him, and used him as a foot pillow. 'he isn't going to care, plus he comfortable'. She sat back and enjoyed her comfy boyfriend foot stand.
'I could go… public with us. it just means I'll have to work extra hard to keep it from my mother. It shouldn't be that difficult, it isn't like she has many friends around these parts. Who would tell her?. the only way I see her finding out is if she goes to do the food shopping. And over hears all the mother hens gossiping about us. the chambers boy entering in to a real relationship that its with man of the time bicycle….. it's a small thing. And it isn't just him either… it be any cobra being in an relationship with a girl and not just using that girl for meaningless sex. Maybe I'll just offer to do all the food shopping for her. it wouldn't be too much out of the ordinary. I'm the one who does most of it anyway. She barely ever here, she eats at her friends please. So I drought she'd catch on too easily'.
The blond girl glanced up at her sleeping boyfriend.
'I don't want him to get hurt in the end. and I don't give a fuck if it's the case of boys will be boys. He's mine and mine only and nobody touches what is mine. And yes I do hear how possessive I sound right now. but can we all be real….. boys do it all the damn time. your all just going to have to forgive me just this once for giving a shit about him. and something else….. I don't care if he thinks he deserves it or not. I don't care if he thinks its fine and doesn't care because he's used to being slapped around".
Ada flinched remembering what they had talked about the day earlier in her room.
'it's sad….. I'm sad for him because I thought that my mother could be…. Abusive. And now I feel like a shit. Too caught up in my own little bubble to think about what he…. Or anyone else really would be going through. but you wanna know why…. it's because I didn't care. This doesn't mean I'm going to become a great big ball of sunshine. I still don't practically give a crap about people. Hey that's just how I've been raised, can anybody blame me too much?'.
She felt her green eyes start to close. Ada placed her book down and gazed at her boyfriend.
'do I wake him?... I don't really want to leave him down here… but I don't want to disturb him either'. Just as she was about to stand up to get a drink of water…. She saw it.
Ada lent down and lifted up all so slightly the bottom of Eyeball's top.
And one she had done she rregretted it right away.
Because right there on his pale white skin was…. A horrible big purple, black and red bruise. Along with many, many scares….. old and new. She took in a sharp breath and moved back away form him.
'his own father'. The green eyes girl bit her lip…. hard. She all of a sudden felt a strong wave of protection over him. 'how dear anyone touch him, Eyeball may not be the nicest of boys. He may not be the smartest or the richest. But he's still a human being. And now it's becoming more and more apparent why he acts the way he acts. And he hang out with the people he does'.
In that moment she only wanted to be closer to him.
She laid down net to him and gently without waking him place her arm around him.
Ada fell asleep soon after. With her arms around the boy she was being to care about, more then anything.
The next morning.
'what is that?, did Kate get scared and have a bed dream again, she did crawl in to my bed. She really gotta stop this. She's…. how old is she again?... I'm not awake enough to think'. The chambers boy asked himself while still being half asleep. totally forgetting where he was.
The he noticed her arm. "wait a minute?". This woke him up. "who arm is….?". he looked over his shoulder to see who was holding him. "ohhh… right". Eyeball remembered where he was and grinned. He couldn't quite remember when they had fallen asleep…. or when she decided she finally felt comfortable with sleeping next to him. "what do I do now?. I don't wanna wake her….. but I really gotta take a piss'. She carefully grabbed her arm and lifted her off of him. then instead of just getting up he rolled away from her then stood up.
After he had been to the bathroom he walked back int o the living room to her see no longer on the ugly orange carpet. 'I really don't see why she doesn't just set it on fire then tell her mother that it was an attention. Or just take one of Nora's smoke and leave it on that ugly thing, then tell her that it much of been her who dropped it. make it think it was her fault….. it's what I'd do'.
"morning". Ada strolled up from behind her and moved her arms around his waist while leaning her head on his back. he turned around her slid his arms around her.
"nice bed hair". Eyeball thought it was amusing Ada had barely moved and yet was able to mesh up her blond hair completely. "how does she even manage all this?'. The dark headed boy ran his fingers through her long hair.
"ohh shush…. I'm making breakfast, do you want some".
"always".
Ada took his hand and led him down the hallway and in to the kitchen.
That night.
"what if somebody see us?".
"ain't nobody gonna see us babe…. You dig me. Just stay down for a minute so I can go make sure Bod's left for the night?".
"wait…. I thought that you said he was… cool?".
"he is".
"then why do I have to hide?".
"because he had rules".
"but didn't you say…".
"yeah he lets us get away with some shit but the fella still has some rules. Like know borrowing money, no being rude to the customers and no bringing girl in to the store. Something about their a distraction".
"oh well now I feel a whole lot better about this". She spoke sarcastically.
"it's be fine… it ain't like he'd be comin' back". he pecked her cheek. "just stay here and I'll be back in a minute kay". he left the car to go make sure that they'd both be in the clear.
"hey boss". He walked in to the store.
""goin' out won't be back until tomorrow".
"yep like always… I know that". the chambers boy put on a tight smile. 'why does he always tell us?. it's the same thing all the time, same set up'.
"your friends gonna be coming over tonight?". that was one of the things he's let the cobras get away with. letting the whole gang hang around while they were working. He didn't mind if they did so. just as long as the work got done.
"Nah just me tonight boss".
"well remember to lock up. I don't need people they can steal from me…. Which reminds me…. I gotta pick up some more bullets for my shot gun". He muttered walking out the door.
"crazy old man". Eyeball chuckled and shook his head. he waited until he was old man Bob pull away and vanish down the street before going back to his car.
"all clear now babe". He opened the door for her.
"why does your car smell like…?". She didn't finish.
"no reason". He grabbed her hand and led her inside.
"sooo…. This is what a auto shop looks like". The first thing Ada saw when she walked in was serval cars. Some without there engines and some without their tires. There was grease everywhere and the strong smell of cigarette smoke hit her like a train.
"yeah watch out for all the grease". He vanished for a hot season and come back with a chair. One of those chairs with wheels on the legs of it "here… for your pleasure". He grinned.
"look at you being all gentleman like".
"did you except anything different?". He walked over to a shelf and began to get what he needed for the car he was working on. "you bring on book or something… I mean…. I can talk to ya and all….".
"did I bring a book or something?". She snickered. "of course I brought a book with me. You can always… and I mean always… assume I'm brought a book with me. Anyway… I wouldn't want to distract you from your work". the blond pulled a book from within her bagged and opened it. she scoffed again. "did you bring a book". She muttered to herself like he was ridicules for even asking.
Later.
"then… all you gotta do is screw then in there… and you're done".
she laughed. "I did it.. I really did it. I fixed a car".
Eyeball thought her excitement for something he did all the time was funny. He'd been fixing up cars pretty much all of his life and not once did he ever get a existed as she was right now.
"what can I do now?". after over an hour of her reading the blond girl started to become interested in what her boyfriend was doing. She at some point floated over to him and began to ask him question about it.
They both weren't 100 percent sure how they got on to this but he was now instructed her in what to do.
It surprised him how different she was from the other girls he'd meet before. 'most chicks would bitch and whine about the smell and all the grease… but not her. it's weird a never thought I'd actually ever have fun hanging with her girl in the auto shop and not making out with her'.
And it surprised her how much she was enjoying it. 'my mum just calls a guy when we have car trouble. Until today I don't think I've ever seen inside one of these things before. Truth be told…..it's a little frilling'. The greened eyes beauty had the urge to jump up and down a few time but didn't want to seem to girly in front of Eyeball.
Bob out on the town
Bob was a short man with a bold patch right on top of his head. He had a hint of a mustache and weighed around 200 and 20 pounds.
As he pulled up across the street from the bar he spied a broken window. 'damn kids'. He thought angrily. He hoped out of his car and hobbled over to the front door, only to be faced with a 'closed' Sign hanging on the front of it. "ohh what the damn hell?". He said out loud.
"apparently Ralph's daughter is in labor". A cool voice said from behind him.
"what". Bob turned and frown. "your kidding…. Another damn grandchild. How many does he have now?". he said angrily.
Ace Merrill stood lent up on his car with all his friends hanging around him. it looked like the blond male was in thought. "bout 7 I think". He shrugged.
"well this is just great isn't it". Bob huffed.
"yeah it is". Charlie said sarcastically. "when we get to drinking next he's gonna wanna be showin' us all the photos of it".
"like where gonna see somthin' new". Billy put in.
"we got here a few 5 minutes before you did. Ralph left 40 seconds before you showed up". The leader took a drag of his smoke.
"well there goes my Friday night?". He throw his hand up and began to stalk back over to his car.
"back to the auto shop then is it?". Ace smirked.
"I guess fucking so….. Nah I think I'm just gonna pick something up from the store then head home for the night and drink there. Anyway…. That chambers boy is working tonight so I guess I don't gotta bother that much with…".
"Eyeball workin' tonight?". Ace tossed his smoke down on the ground with a vengeance and made his way over to the older man.
"yeah".
"well I got a fuckin' bone to pick with him". Ace was still pissed off about Eyeball ditching him out side the bar 2 nights before. He was also annoyed that he or none of the other guys had seen him since then. he hadn't showed up at school and when Vince and Charlie went to his home Chris and answered and told them he hadn't been back in two days.
At hearing this the rest of the cobras straighten up as well.
Bob could tell the young man was angry, so he knew what he had to say. "I don't give a shit…. If the two of you are gonna fight about it…. do it outside the shop". He turned and claimed in to his car.
Ace turned to look at the guys. "get in the fuckin' cars…. Now. where gonna follow him up".
Eyeball and Ada.
"so you get to so this for a living". She smiled.
"yeah but it ain't like existing".
"don't say that I think it's real cool".
"why?".
"I don't know… I just do. I guess it's the fun of knowing the knowledge of what you can do and create".
He laughed "you are such a nerd". He kissed her forehead.
The pair were now sitting in the back of one of the many cars in the back of the auto shop. He's showed her how to put several other things together. Including how to put tires on and how to change the oil.
"you really had fun?".
"yeah I did I really did". she looked up at him and grinned.
He didn't think he'd ever been and star struck as he was at the moment.
"hey Ada".
"yeah?".
Eyeball touch her lips with his and gave her a sweet kiss. He pulled away and look deeply in to her green eyes. "Ada your like….. you're the most…. I've ain't ever met..". he was having trouble saying what he wanted to say. Telling her what he wanted to tell her. 'I ain't use to this crap, talkin' bout feelings and shit. We don't do that in my family… we don't do that in the cobras. So how am I meant to tell them to her'.
"are you going to say I'm not like any girl you've ever met before?. Because if so them that might be the most cliché thing you've ever said". she grinned teasingly at him.
"then I guess you're the most cliché girl I've ever met".
They both chuckled.
He tenderly and that was followed by another, and then another, and then another. Ada threw her arms around his neck and let him lift her up. She was now facing him while sitting on his lap. "Ada….".
"yes Eyeball?".
'say something…. Tell her how much you care…. Just do it already'. "never mind". He lifted her up again but only to shift their positions in the back of the care. He laid her down on the set and crawled on top of her. he began to kiss her jaw and collar bone.
This continued for quite some time before Ada did something the chambers boy hadn't expected her to do…. she grabbed the bottom of his shift and pulled it up. Trying to get it over his head. He helped her by pulling it off himself and throwing it on to the greasy floor.
He didn't know where this was going to go…. But he liked it. He carefully moved his hands up her T-shift but stopped when he got to the middle of her stomach.
He made eye contact her with asking her if it was alright for him to go any further. The reason for his being careful was because he was enjoying hat they were currently doing in the back seat of the car. The last thing he wanted to do was scare her off.
She nodded. "it's fine…. You can". She said like she wasn't sure.
He nodded and slowly ran his hands up her shirt all the way now.
This coursed her to shiver.
"you good?".
"yeah I'm fine". They were whispering to one another.
His hands found her breast. 'holy crap how big are they?, my hands don't even fit over them'. He yelled to himself. 'okay…. now I see why she feels she hast to wear all those baggy clothes'. He shook that all off though, only wanting to focus on the girl under him.
Ada's much smaller hands, made there way up to her own shift and all so slowly began to unbutton it. 'this doesn't mean I'm going to have sex with him. it just… it just feels good. He…. Feels good'.
Eyeball felt that familiar tightness in his pants. And without thinking about it, began to grind against her. she opened her legs a little to give him more space to work with.
"your okay…. with… with this". He whispered.
She nodded quickly.
The chambers boy started to grind harder, not too much harder but harder then previously. Her shirt was now half way open from the bottom and his hands still continued to roam her body.
She stopped unbuttoning her shirt and moved her hands around to his back, his bear back. he stretched out one of his hands and grasp the door of the topless car. The green eyed girl hitched her leg over his, and with his other hand held it in place.
They were in their own world.
"what have I told you boys no girls in the work place!". A voice barked form behind them.
Knocking them both out of their world and back in to the bitch of reality. On instinct Ada pulled Eyeball closer to her out of panic while Eyeball whipped his head up in the direction of the voice.
The chambers boy never wanted to crawl in to a hole quite like in this moment. Not even when his dad wanted to beat him did he care that much.
Because looking up he didn't just see his angry boss…. But all of his friends with their jaws hitting the floor at what they were seeing.
All the boy suddenly moved out of the way of there leader who was standing at the back pf the pack.
Ace slowly stepped through them looking at his best friend since childhood and the bet that lay under him. He had a cool expression on his face, the complete opposite of his their friends.
"well". He said in his smooth voice. "what the fuck do you know about this".
