Covenant fanfic chapter 13
Summer woke up as the light streamed through the cheap school blinds. She lay on her bed, not bothered to get up at all. There was a ruffling sound from the other side of the room. Summer swivelled herself to look over and, to her horror, she saw Kira ransacking her wardrobe. The red head had the entire of her upper half in the tiny cupboard, things flying out behind her. Summer forced herself up, enraged. Running to the red heads' side, she yanked her out of the door and began picking up her scattered clothing.
"What are you doing?" Summer cried, "You're throwing out my stuff?"
"Only the cheap things." Kira smirked, a coat from Abercrombie in her right hand. Summer snatched it back.
"Cheap? Cheap? That coat cost more than your house!" she screeched.
"Calm down! I need my space back!" Kira cried.
"You need space for clothes, huh? You never wear any clothes! That's why whenever you're here; you're passed out under the covers with your asshole boyfriend!" Summer threw back. Kira lunged at her. She tugged at Summer's long hair with her fists and Summer kicked at her shoes with her bare feet. Summer threw a slap and hit Kira squarely in the cheek. She stumbled back a little, and was just about to start another cat fight when...
*knock, knock, knock*
Both girls stopped fighting and Summer called out for the person on the other side to come in. Summer wasn't pleased to see a familiar figure with curly hair and an arrogant face. She scowled at Kira, who was looking quite triumphant. Aaron was keen to start up a conversation.
"Hey Summer, you'll never guess what just happened." He glowered at her, "Your asshole of a boyfriend started on me, and lost! You can bet I'm not gonna let you guys forget that in a hurry."
Kira looked extremely happy with herself, Summer had no clue what was going on. Kira walked up to Aaron and gave him a full on kiss on the mouth, making Summer wretch. She had no clue of the deal Kira had made the night previous, so she was wondering how on God's green Earth Reid had lost to someone as pathetic as Aaron. The couple finished their grotesque make out session and turned to the cute, little brunette.
"Get a room." she said smugly as the two parted. Kira scowled.
"We have a room, you leave." She demanded, pointing at the door stubbornly. Summer took one look at herself, she was still wearing yesterdays cocktail dress. She grabbed some clothes from the pile on the floor and went into the bathroom, not wanting to know what was going on in the main room. When she heard groaning she shouted through the door.
"You better not be doing it on my bed!" she cried. Then she realised she had given them an idea and cursed at herself.
When she was fully dressed in a long-sleeved red top, blue jeans and a white body warmer with her converse trainers, she wondered how she was going to get out without witnessing an unsavoury site on two repulsive naked people. She panicked quietly and looked around for an easy escape route. Her chocolate eyes quickly fell upon the window. It pained her to think she had been reduced from kid genius/ early graduate to creepy new kid that leaves rooms through windows, but it had to be done. The thought of running through a room with two people having sex, even with her eyes down, didn't appeal to her. She stood on the medicine box and climbed onto the window sill, lifting up the window pane as wide as it would go. Wriggling on her belly, she crawled out slowly. She tipped too quickly and cried out slightly, her feet wiggling wildly in the bathroom still. Her belt un hooked itself from the pane and she fell, only a short way as she was on the bottom floor, but there was a soft thud as she landed on an oblivious passerby.
Summer muttered apologies as she scrambled to her feet. The other person was too busy dusting themself off to pay any attention, that is, until she realised who it was.
"M-Maggie?" Summer stuttered as she rubbed her painful arm. The blonde looked at her and blinked twice. Summer could see why Tyler had liked her. She had blonde hair that ran down past her shoulders and perfect heart shaped lips. Tyler had said she was jealous, but really, she had nothing to worry about if she looked like that.
"Do I know you?" she asked, trying to work out why Summer looked so familiar. Summer had forgotten she had only seen Maggie in photos and she had no clue who she was. She introduced herself.
"I'm Summer Danvers, Caleb's sister." She said, holding out a hand. Maggie's eyes widened in realisation and she shook it.
"I thought you looked familiar," she said, "How do you know me?"
"You went out with Tyler." Summer enlightened her. She then felt incredibly stupid because she probably wasn't quite over the break up.
"Sorry." She uttered. Maggie shook her head.
"No, no. It's fine. I suppose we just weren't meant to be." She sighed. Then she remembered that Summer had fallen on her from above and she looked confused. Summer read this look easily.
"Yeah, sorry about that, I was climbing out of my window." She then realised that this probably sounded odd to a complete stranger. They both laughed as Summer explained.
"Yeah, my roommate is unfortunately very sexually active. I didn't want to risk exposure to it." She giggled. Maggie nodded, composing herself.
"You're funny." She said. Then she looked at her watch and gasped.
"Oh, dear I have to go. I'll see you around?" she asked, turning to leave.
"Sure." Summer nodded.
"See you around, Windowjumper!" Maggie called over her shoulder as she walked away from Summer, she waved at her, although she couldn't see it.
Summer then realised that all she had done with her Sunday morning was fall on a stranger out of a window. She went for a walk to find Reid or at least someone to talk to. She walked to the rec and saw Tyler and Reid talking under a tree (the same one under which Aaron had been attacked under actually) she noticed that Reid was sporting a rather large cut to the jaw and remembered that he had had a fight with Aaron, and mysteriously lost despite the fact that he could Use. She rushed over to them.
"Hey, handsome." She called as she reached them, "Someone told me you lost to Aaron."
"And don't you spread it around." Reid joked, wrapping an arm around her gently.
"Reid was about to tell my why he took a dive." Tyler put in.
"Who says I took a dive?" asked Reid.
"C'mon, buddy. You just went down." Tyler said. Summer looked from one to the other in disbelief.
"Well, Kira saw us the other night and she threatened to tell Caleb if I didn't take a dive." Summer nodded in understanding and snuggled up to Reid as repayment for doing that for her. Tyler looked confused.
"Saw you do what?" he asked. The other two looked embarrassed and diverted their gaze.
