Chapter 9.
I stepped out my room to see Amber, Trey, and Freddie cleaning the kitchen, but what stunned me was how theer wasn't one thing out of place or trash anywhere and i smiled, "You guys!" They turned and smiled at me and eventhough there were bags under their eyes but their smiles were perfect. I looked at Derek and his bright smile and was just so happpy when Amber came over and grabbed my arm.
"Come on babe we made your faves bacon, scrambled eggs, and french toast...oh and an explaination from all of us." Her voice sounded guilty as she pulled me to the kitchen were Trey was making the plates and Freddie was getting the juice. We all sat down and I chomped on my bacon as they stared.
"What!?" My voice was clouded by bacon.
"Who's explanation do you want first?" They all said.
"Trey Amber hat the hell happened last night?" I stared and they looked down.
Amber stared off first, "Well as you know me and Trey were home watching movies when i got a call from Issac asking if I wanted to hang so I said yeah and asked him to pick up Jacob for Trey so he did and they came over. After they got here we got drunk with the bottles of beer they had brought over and began playing Truth or Dare. I um...dared Issac to kiss Jacob and they were so wasted they did and kept at it, so me and Trey thought it was so funny we crawled to my room to get my camera but Trey dropped to the floor and I fell ontop of him and we passed out that's as much as I remember..." I choked on my eggs as I thought of last night.
"Do you guys know what happened?" Trey said rubbing his temple.
"Well...we walked in on Issac and Jacob's make-out session and I kicked them out and went in search of you guys and well..."I trailed off and I could feel Derek reading my mind and he smirked, "I walked in on you guys screwing the hell out of each other..." I watched as their eyes rose to mine and their jaws dropped, "I know shocking isn't it?"
"Babe I need to tell you some..." and then before she could finish the doorbell rang, I lifted my head to Derek's eyes and his eyes were worried, "Don't get it." i was shocked.
"Why?"
"Just don't..." But I ignored his warning and jumped up for the door and turned the knob. When I turned that knob my whole world came crashing down and thought, I should have listened to Derek's warning. There outside of the door stood my two biological parents, and I gulped a scream and it got stuck in my throat.
"Alicia." Sternly stated my dad.
"Richard Nancy." I said and creased my forehead, "What do you want?"
"OUR SON BACK!" Yelled my mother and I jumped back as she pushed her way through and sped forward to my little brother in a fit of froze when she stopped at Freddie, "Look at me nino." He kept his eyes on me and they were screaming help, "Why the hell did you just up and leave!"
"Because i hate your damn guts!" hE screamed and stood up and stocked over to Trey's room slamming the door, and Trey rushed afterhim. And they both turned over to me.
"Wat did you do? Did you turn him against us?" My mother screamed as she rushed over to me.
"What are you talkin about you drove us both away. After what happened to Megan you just pushed us both to the side like we were trash! I left because you bastards still blame me for Megan's death..." My voice was high.
"Because it was your fault of you hadn't called her you drunk she would be alive!"
"We I'm so sorry it was an accident but you know I'm not sorry for thinking you assholes are the worst, noncaring, and beastly parents on the..." I didn't realized she had her hand raised in the air but when it came down on my cheek the sting was major as I bent down cupping it.
"Don't tell me a bad parent, it's not me it's you. If I could bring back that night I would have you killed and have your sister alive!" And with that I straightened up and pulled my fist back and punched her, sending her flying back to the floor. Derek jumped up and opened the door as Amber held me down, "I think you should leave now! And don't come BACK EVER!" I screamed and Amber now bearhugging me to keep me from attacking them again, Which I wanted to do! They stood up and walked over to the door but stopped.
"Before we go I want to get Freddie's opinion to stay or come back." My dad stated sad but sternly.
"Freddie." Amber called his name still full of shock and out the door came Freddie with his eyes full of red and tears which made my stomach clench.
"Freddie is this what you want to stay here with your sister or come home?" My mother said still holding her face.
"I'd rather die then go back with you so you can leave now!" I broke from Amber's grip and over to Freddie, I rested my head on his and his head on my chest. While we gripped each other's bodies we both cried and my parents walked out the door, we dropped to the floor and the grip tightened when I locked eyes with Derek. His eyes were large and his lips in a straight line he began to quiver, and walked out the door which shocked me. I looked at Amber and Trey and they just looked down not knowing what to do, and Ijust held onto Freddie.
"So are you ready to tell me what happened to make you get here?" I asked Freddie as I brushed his wavvy brown hair from his forehead.
"Well yesterday night dad yelled at me for trying to call you so i yelled at him and he hit me." I felt a stab in my stomach and i didn't like the feeling.
"Okay how did you get here?"
"I used my hacker skills got me booked on a plane in someone else's place."
How did you get to this apartment?"
"I broke into you school's system and got your address. Then paid the cab driver to bring me all the way here." He held onto my torso as I thought, He is way to smart for a thirteen year old.
"Wow you're smart buddy so you really wanna live here away from your friends, your baseball team, and old life?" I looked down at him and his eyes held sadness.
"I'm sad for leaving all that behind back I'd rather be here with you happily." And with that I squeezed him and I heard a knock at the door and in popped Amber.
"Hey Lia can i talk to you?" Freddie got up and ducked under her arm and into the livingroom and Amber came to my side, "Babe...I need you to get comfy and relax because this is gonna get you shocked." I cuddled up in my bed and looked at her.
"What is it Amber?"
"Me and Trey are together..." I stared at her and my jaw dropped.
"Are you joking," she shook her head, "What about Trey's gayness and Jacob?"
"He still is gay but also bi now and Jacob was a cover." I stared as she shrugged.
"How long has this been going on?"
"The night we came back from that party. When you went to sleep I guess I thought I went to your room but ended up in Trey's bed, we were both drunk and one thing led to another and yeah we continued it." She smiled and I began laughing.
"Damn that is funny so total togetherville?" I managed to laughed out.
"Yup so glad to tell you that I wanted to tell you soon but never got the chance."
"It's okay.
"Yay okay so we're gonna go order pizza stay up and we'll be eating soon." She jumped up and walked out the room, i looked to my carpet were Maddie was sleeping and sighed. I laid down on my oversized pillows and turned on my ipad looking at my Facebook to see I got like twenty messages all from Johnathan.
"Well let's add all those to the thousands he's already sent." Over the four months after our breakup Johnathan has been trying to apologize and get me back but I was not letting it happen, but I read one:
Babe plez I miss u im so sorry its been months plez take me back and cum bak 2 cali! :,(
That was from last Friday, then I saw it a text from Johhny's brother saying I'm invited to Johnathan's funeral, He died! I read along the text and it said he was attacked and killed last weekened I gasped but didn't know what to say instead, I screamed in my mind and tossed my ipad onto my carpet and took a long sigh. Lost in my thoughts about what happened today and what I would do now that Derek was a vampire, just on cue I heard a tap on my window and walked over to my fire escape to see Derek, smiling I lifted up the frame and he crawled in. I froze when i saw what was on his shirt, Blood! I stepped back and my smile dropped as his eyes went to his shirt, "Alicia I need to tell you something." Before he could my phone rang and made me trip over Maddie. I jumped across the room to answer it, but I just really wanted to get away from him and flipped it open, "Hello?"
"Yes is this Alicia Reynolds?" The voice was high and squeaky.
"This is she."
"Well this is Kimberly calling from Harlem Medical Center to tell you that your parentshave been in a car crash and the doctors tried all they could but I'm so sorry they didn't make it." I thought of how Freddie would feel about losing his older sister and parents all in car crashes. My stomach clenched, eyes stung, and all the color in my face was gone, when I looked up at Derek's blood soaked body.
"It was you! You killed my parents, when you barged out the house you went and killed them! I know I hate them but not enough to have you kill them! You did it didn't you, you're a sick beast!" I screamed and pushed him backwards by his chest when I realized the blood on my hands. He zoomed back to me and grabbed both my wrists. I tried to struggle but his grip was tight.
"Sweetheart please listen to me...I didn't killl them. When I stormed out it was because I hate to see you when you're like that. So when I left I went for a long walk when I heard some loud screach, I turned the corner and saw your parent's car totaled. i ran over to see if they were okay but there was blood everywhere and I got my phone out and called the cops. I looked down at my shirt and saw the blood and left because I knew I had to leave. I rushed back here but just sat on your fire escape listening to you and Freddie talking, and I thought about how I would break the news to you. Please Alicia listen to me please believe me..." His eyes were locked on me and I felt frozen when his grip left my wrists to my temples and before me a flash of a car crash and a figure jumping out the car that crashed into my parents, then Derek came. He dropped his hands when he saw the fear in my eyes, slowly my eyes lifted to his and I gulped as I met those grey eyes that always trapped me.
"Tell me what yourthinking." He was in my mind again.
"I want to believe you but a part of me wants to walk away while the other says please he wants to protect you."
"Then listen to the one that's louder and trust that one." His thoughts were sweet and tempting.
"I don't think I can they're both as loud."
"Try." When he said it I listened to my thoughts and realized it had to be done, I pulled back and his eyes widened.
"I can't do this." Before he could open his mouth I ripped his shirt off and flung it across the room, and the smile creeped back on my face as his grin grew wide and I glided over to him. His hands came to my hips, mine around his neck, and our lips met which felt like heaven the tingle grew deeper. The same warmth I felt around him grew and I knew he was on top of me when I felt the fabric of my comforter. He kissed me traveling down to my neck and he licked around my neck and i hummed at the feeling, when the flash of the accident flashed around in my mind and I saw the figure and knew where it was from, My Dream! I pushed Derek off and he stared, "Derek there was that figure again at the accident!"
He thought about it and shrugged, "It's probably just a coincedence." I shook my head and laid down and Derek flopped down next to me rubbing my shoulder as I drifted off.
