Chaos & Euphoria

Chapter 3:

I sat up on the couch, the sun was peeking through the blinds making me squint slightly. I rubbed my eyes then looked around, no one was up.

[I] You should just leave...[/i] My mind told me and I shook my head ignoring it.

I walked into the kitchen and went on a hunt to find the ingredients to make me a my morning brew. also known as Coffee. I pushed my tangled hair behind my ear and yawned tiredly. As the aroma filled the kitchen I heard the shuffle of feet make their way into the kitchen. I looked up surprised that I heard him before I heard his thoughts. He grumbled something I couldn't understand and I handed him some coffee and he smiled weakly, forcing me to look down.

[I] I wonder if she is okay...she looks down..[/i] He finally thought.

"You alright?"He asked me as he sipped the luke warm beverage.

"Yep! Look thanks for letting me stay with you, I probably should start looking for somewhere else to stay..." I said to him and he laughed weakly.

"You don't have to."He said to me shrugging.

"Stay as long as you need,You don't take up much room to begin with."He said shrugging, I could hear some not so pleasant things coming from Spencer's mind. When he imereged from what I guessed what his room, I kept my eyes down I personally didn't want to know what he was thinking while he was "Handling His Business". Isn't that kind of personal?

"Morning."Spencer said and I grumbled something.

"Good morning!" Brendon said full of excitement, everyone was quiet and I guess Brendon couldn't stand it. I kept my eyes down, drinking my coffee.

"Sooo how'd you sleep?"Brendon asked me.

"Great! Better than I have in a while."I said to him, which was all lies that couch was terrible.

[I] 'Liaaarrr, that couch is killer. She can sleep in my room tonight..'[/i]

"No that couch is terrible you can sleep in my room tonight... I have to work." He said to me and I looked at him suspiciously

[i]'Great...Now she thinks you want in her pants...well..I wouldn't say now.'[/i] I thought it was hilarious how when he talked to himself in his head he would make faces and wriggle his eye brows. I laughed to myself.

"Alright." I said to him. "Thank you."

"No problem." Brendon said and Spencer glared at me making me feel very unwelcome. I looked at Brendon who was smiling happily, this guy had it all didn't he? I smiled then jerked my head up upon hearing Spencer's thoughts.

[i]'Whats up with this girl? She is so weird....'[/i] He thought making me giggle slightly.

"What?" I asked him and he shook his head.

"Your strange."He said grabbing his car keys and walking out of the apartment.

"Don't mind him, he is just pissed because his girlfriend left him."Brendon said to me shrugging and I smiled.

[I]'Why is he such an ass...'[/i] He asked himself.

"Ah its cool. I don't care. So uh What are we doing today?" I asked him curiously and he grinned.

"SIGHT SEEING!" He said extra excited.

"Sounds fun." I said smiling at him.

[i]'She is really awesome....'[/i] He thought making a blush tint my cheeks. There was something about him, that made me trust him, maybe it was his child like antics or maybe it was just him in general. I felt like I could tell him my secret, I felt like I could tell him anything. The fact that he was so sweet made it all even better. Maybe he was that one I was told to find, maybe...just maybe.

My thoughts were interrupted when I heard someone thinking, and it made my stomach churn. I didn't know what to do. I didn't know how to tell him that I needed to hide.

[i]'Boss said she ran here somewhere....[/i] He thought and I cursed under my breath and Brendon looked at me concerned.

"You alright?"He questioned.

[i]Did I do something wrong?[/i]

"No..yes! Yes I'm fine.. uh Brendon, I have to go...I'm sorry I just can't take up space anymore. Even if it is a little." I said grabbing my bag and tossing it onto my shoulder. He grabbed my wrist has I headed for the door.

"What are you talking about Erin...Whats going on?"He asked me concern filling his chocolate brown eyes making feel my walls fall down to the ground. I sighed and looked at the ground nervously just as someone knocked on the door. I turned and my heart began to beat fast and I pulled Brendon to me and began to whisper in his ear.

"Brendon, their looking for me...Please hide me..please." I begged him.

"FBI open up!" the man yelled and Brendon's eyes widened

"Its nothing I did...its what they want me for...I wouldn't ask you if I knew I was in the wrong...I'll explain it all after they are gone..." I said to him and he nodded pushing me into his room and opening his closet. He had a trunk in there and he opened it setting my duffel bag on the shelf above my head, I climbed into the dark space. He closed his closet and ran to the door.

"Sorry. I was in the bathroom."He said in a happy tone.

[i]'I hope she explains all this to me, so I understand.'[/i]

"Have you seen this girl?"He asked him and I heard him take the paper.

"No, she sure is pretty though...is she missing?"He asked convincingly, as he spoke to the man seriously.

"I guess you could say that, but be careful She may be beautiful but she is dangerous. Keep an eye out..."He said to him and I heard the front door shut. I felt my hear t beating around in my chest erratically I was going to have to tell him everything right from the beginning so he could see why I was running so hard. I heard the closet open and I gasped for fresh air when he opened the trunk. He looked at me with a serious face.

"Now...Explain..."He said sitting on his bed and I sat on the floor in front of him.

"It all started when I was 13..."
