Chapter 5 - Not Expected
Desiree POV
Saturday movie marathon. The newest tradition started for the three of us. Clove was laying upside down on the couch, I am sitting with crossed legs and Isabelle was laying on her stomach like a kid on the floor. We were watching Revenge Of The Bridesmaids. This is an awesome movie. Clove wasn't really paying attention though. She was busy texting someone. Everything was nice and quiet until the doorbell rang. Clove stopped texting the person she was. She sat up straight then pushed herself to her feet. She walked to the door. We heard the door open and then Clove scream. Isabelle and I both exchange a look before running to the door. We saw Clove with her arms wrapped around Cato. I saw Marvel pop around from behind Cato and I ran at him. I jumped at him and knocked him down. Isabelle just stood there laughing.
"Aw! Young love!" she joked.
Clove let go of Cato and I rolled off of Marvel. I pulled Marvel to his feet and led him inside. Cato picked Clove up off the ground and over his shoulder. We all went to the living room. Cato pulled Clove onto his lap and Marvel did the same with me. Isabelle sat alone. Clove broke the silence.
"What are you guys doing in town?" she asked.
"We decided it would be awesome to come see our girlfriends and Jett," Cato explained.
As if on cue, Jett walked into the living room.
"Hey Jett," Cato and Marvel said in union.
"Hey guys. What are you doing in town?" Jett replied.
"Visiting," they stated in perfect union again.
"Hey ladies. How are you three?" Jett asked us.
None of us said anything. Cato and Marvel gave us weird looks.
"What with the third degree to Jett, ladies?" Cato asked us.
"Until further notice, Jett is dead to us," Clove explained.
"What did he do?" Marvel asked me.
Clove and I nodded. We both leaned to whisper to Cato and Marvel.
"Jett isn't ditching a girl because she's pretty even though she broke my heart and tried to ruin all three of our lives," I whispered to Marvel.
The boys both nodded. Clove leaned into Cato chest while I got off Marvel's lap and leaned into his side. He put an arm around me.
"Come on! Cato! Marvel! Please don't tell me you guys are going to start ignoring me too!" Jett barked.
No one responded. Jett huffed before exiting the room.
"This is so mean," Marvel said.
I couldn't argue but Jett deserved this. Clove tried to lighten the mood. She put some music on and we all sung along. She played Funhouse by Pink. (A/N I am not certain if this is the clean version.)
I dance around this empty house
Tear us down
Throw you out
Screaming down the halls
Spinning all around and now we fall
Pictures framing up the past
Your taunting smirk behind the glass
This museum full of ash
Once a tickle
Now a rash
This used to be a funhouse
But now it's full of evil clowns
It's time to start the countdown
I'm gonna burn it down down down
I'm gonna burn it down
9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, fun
Echoes knocking on locked doors
All the laughter from before
I'd rather live out on the street
Than in this haunted memory
I've called the movers
Called the maids
We'll try to exorcise this place
Drag my mattress to the yard
Crumble tumble house of cards
This used to be a funhouse
But now it's full of evil clowns
It's time to start the countdown
I'm gonna burn it down down down
This used to be a funhouse
But now it's full of evil clowns
It's time to start the countdown
I'm gonna burn it down down down
I'm gonna burn it down
9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, fun
Oh, I'm crawling through the doggy door
My key don't fit my lock no more
I'll change the drapes
I'll break the plates
I'll find a new place
Burn this fucker down
Do do do do dodo do
Do do do do dodo do
Do do do do dodo do
Do do do do dadadada
Do do do do dodo do (9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1)
Do do do do dodo do
Do do do do dodo do
Do do do do dodo doo
This used to be a funhouse
But now it's full of evil clowns
It's time to start the countdown
I'm gonna burn it down down down
This used to be a funhouse
But now it's full of evil clowns
It's time to start the countdown
I'm gonna burn it down down down
I'm gonna burn it down
After the music, Cato tossed Isabelle a DVD for us to watch. He brought Dinner For Schmucks. Clove looked into his eyes.
"How long are you guys in town for?" she asked.
"A week-ish," Cato said.
"Ish?" Isabelle asked.
"Maybe longer, maybe shorter," Marvel explained.
Cato phone started buzzing. He looked at the text. he sighed before standing up knocking Clove to the ground.
"Cato!" she yelled.
"You know not to stay sitting on me when my phone buzzes," he said helping her up. "We gotta go," he added grabbing Marvel which caused me to fall face first onto the couch.
"Bye ladies!" they yelled before running out of the door.
We rolled our eyes. They left their DVD. Well they'll be back another time. We take out the movie and go make supper.
This is a game changer.
And this is chapter five. I hope everyone liked it. Please review, favorite, and follow.
