When I got home I noticed that the lights of my bedroom were on. Arching my eyebrow I enter my house with a caution on my side as I go in as slowly and silent around me. I open the closest to my left, to grab and cold metal handle with rubber gripping. My baseball bat. I lifted the bat high above my head, to the possible danger above.
'Calm DD, Calm.' I reminded myself, as I moved upstairs avoiding any of the creaks that might give myself away, as the weight in my hands became heavier with the fear of something to come.
The farther I take myself, I hear rambling into my room, meaning there was someone in there.
At the top of the stairs I glue myself to the wall to avoid the person if they my decide to exit my room. Getting closer to the door I hear a soft snore?
'What in the name? Did they decide to sleep in mid steal?!' I question myself more and more, but comes to a stop as I see the door being flung open with a mighty force, the person is much stronger than I am.
I wait a moment, while butterfly swim into my stomach and my palms become coated with sweat. I bring the bat higher and lower is with all my might when the shadow of the person become closer.
I don't remembering closing my eyes but once I open them I see, Ed. The big oof!
"Ow, Double D hit me!" He wailed as tears left his eyes. Guilt falls into the fear.
" Ed!" I rush down to him were he had fallen from my hit. " Oh dear, oh dear! I'm oh so terrible sorry for that. I had no idea that it was you." I explain quickly in on breath, as I check him over to see if I did any damage to him that might last for a time.
Next I see Eddy leaning on the door frame holding in his laughs of seeing one of his friends on the floor hurt.
"Wow, DD. Didn't know you could do that." he chuckled picking up the forgotten baseball bat. I paid no mind to him as I finished making sure Ed might have an concussion.
Once that was finished, I looked over at Eddy who was still playing with the bat. "What in the name of everything holy are you doing intruding into my home!" I shrike towards him, as anger fills.
"Oh calm down you big baby." He put out his hand to push my away from him, even if I was away from him already. " We're just here to check up on you, since ya know. You're our friend." He reason, as if it's a good one.
Sighing and deciding it's best not to fight. Ed got on to his feet as if nothing had happen to him. " DD why do you have a bat?" He ask taking it into his hand and started to put it in his mouth.
I cringe at the sight of him. "Well since Mother and Father are away, I must have some sort of protection. So I use that in such moments." I tell him simply as I take the bat way from him, before he starts to swing it around and braking the walls.
Eddy just roll his eyes at me, and foes back into the bedroom.
I follow him as well, to see that a tornado has been though as well.
My mouth has dropped down to the floor if it could. " what in the gods happen!?" I shout yanking Eddy closer by the collar of his shirt.
My books were thrown off their shelves, my clothing scatter along the floor, lined with dirt from my plants, which now have now been pulled out of their beloved pots and had... bite marks in them.
Eddy shoved himself away from my grasp. '' take a chill pill. it's not like you can't clean it up in a matter of a day'' he tries justifying himself.
I grab his shoulders and start shaking the shorter boy in a violent matter. '' Do you not see the wrong you two have placed upon my home! You intrude into my house, most likely ate my food. Came into my bedroom, to have me think you are a robber and almost cause you two a concussion. Then you give me a mess to clean!" I shout at the top of my lung not stopping in my ramble, only to take in breaths to let out more fury.
'' You destroy my beloved plants, all but one is in their rightful place. Pages are torn away from my books and step on. even chewed into spit ball! My bedding is wrinkled and has the stench of you! When someone is not present in their home, YOU LEAVE!'' I shout having my voice strain from not used to the loudness pressing on my vocal.
Eddy looked at me with pure shook into his eyes, then something in his eyes snapped. Shook became anger.
'' We came here because we were worried about you, to help you because that jackass, Kevin! We came to see you! Yes we came in and had something to eat, we thought you went to the store cause your fridge is getting low! So would you stop yelling at me like a bitch!" He growled in a low hard voice enough to send a chill of fear down my back.
" I had enough of you Eddy! You have no right to be in my home and certainly have no right to call me such a name!" I yell back at him puffing out my chest to take in more air for the on coming showdown.
"Oh yes I do!" He stated " I stuck with you through all this time. Making sure you weren't a lonely loser like you are! I helped you be somebody instead of an nobody! So I can call you what ever I want BITCH! I own you!" He grab me by the shirt and shoved me against the wall. I let out a gasp from the sudden pain coursing through my back. I grab him by the wrist to try to push him away, but despite his height he still over powered myself.
" I belong to no one! Certainly not a fool like you!"
"Eddy! Stop this your going to break him!" I heard Ed yell from where ever he was.
"Bud out of this Ed! This is not your fight" Eddy roared at Ed who shrunk down in size. I look over at Ed pleading him to help me, but Eddy had Ed wrapped around his finger and had him do anything at anytime.
"It about time you remember your place in our gang! You listen to me!" He shouted toward my face, letting one of his hands release from my shirt and raise to the air.
My eyes sealed shut from the blow his was about to unleash. Next thing I know I feel his hand collide with my cheek leaving a deathful sting and turning my cheek pink. He does this five more time, by the end my cheek is bruised with red and feels as if there were needles poking them.
"Ed! Go home to Sarha! She might tell your mom that you came her all morning." He said with a smile of a snake. Ed only gasp and ran out of the room.
"What are you going to do?" I asked with a shaky voice full of fear of my bestfriend.
