I have no excuse other than writers block and laziness sry ya'll
That was bad. Right after my last period I ran out to Axe's car and got in without a word. Juni usually got there first so it was just her and I in the back seat. She was playing with a dread and looked up, probably expecting Spinner, who's the second to get there.
"Hey Madds, what's up?" I sighed and dropped my head into my hands and looked up when the door opened and Spinner got in.
This is as good a time as any to mention Axe's car. It's a really old beat up convertable that might have been blue at one time but now is a mix of rust and dirt. I see people walk by and make faces at it, but I think it's awesome, it gets me to and from school everyday at least. Anyway, Spinner got in and Juni got on his lap. I didn't answer the question, simply looked down at the dirty floor of the car. Axe was a fast food guy, as proven by the McDonalds, Burger king and Taco Bell junk all over the place.
"Hey Madds." Axe and Stacey got in the front seats and Stacey looked back at me.
"I am the most horrible person on the planet." I muttered.
"Not the planet per say... what did you do?" Axe asked.
"I'm going to go home and drown myself." I decided. "That's the only humane thing."
"No, you could also smother yourself." Axe turned around to me, turning a smack from Stacey.
"Told you Madds. The vortex of doom." She nodded, turning back around. Axe started the car and backed out, we passed by Troy and his friends and they all just stood around.
Axe dropped me off and I got out, running up to my room and dropping to my matteress. I buried my head in pillows and sighed.
"Dem-sum." Leon pounded on my door.
"What?" I asked, my voice muffled by pillows.
"Dem-sum." He repeated, unable to hear me, under the pillows across the room and through a door. Go figure. I pulled my head out and shouted,
"What?" He opened the door and smiled at me.
"I went to the store. I got your favorite Mint Chip Ice cream." I smiled feebly.
"Thanks Nardo." I said, laying my head back down.
"You okay Demi?" Leon asked, walking in and sitting in the bubble chair.
"Yeah I'm fine." I sighed, reaching up to undo one of the two braids my hair was tied in.
"Sure." Leon stood up, and went to the door. "If you're ever not fine, you know where to find me." He smiled and walked out. That's why I love my brother, he won't sit there and push me to tell him what's up. Unlike everyone else on the planet that insisted on knowing every little bit of my business no matter how much I didn't want to talk about it. As soon as Leon left I sat up and looked at my bag. I had calc homework so I got up to get the bag but found myself going to my CD player and turning on Beauty and the Beast. I sat in the bubble chair, waiting for it to fall, after a minute I relaxed and sang along.
"Ever just the same, Ever a surprise, Ever as before, ever just as sure, as the sun will rise. Tale as old as time, tune as old as song, bitter sweet and strange, finding you can change, learning you were wrong."
"Certain as the sun, rising in the east." I jumped, looking at the door. Troy stood there looking sheepish, his hands shoved in his pockets and his hair falling into his perfect blue eyes. I got out of the chair and went to stop the CD player. The song was pretty much over anyway.
"Umm hey." I cleared my throat. "I'm really sorry about,"
"Can we talk?" He interrupted me. I bit my lip and looked around.
"Sure." I walked out, leading him down past the kithen, where I stopped, Leon's words playing through my mind. "First..." I got two bowls and grabbed the Mint Chocolate Chip ice cream that I'm so addicted to. I grabbed the scooper from the drawer and scooped out two bowls worth and put it all away as Troy grabbed spoons. I led him out around to the back of the house and climbed up the lattice to the roof. It was easy enough that I could do it one handed and not fall, I figured Troy could do it blindfolded with his feet. I got to the top and turned to help Troy up. We dug into the ice cream and didn't say a word, just sat there. Once we were done Troy sighed.
"Gabriella and I had a talk after school."
"Oh?" I tried to keep from jumping up and down in celebration. I did feel bad, but how bad could I feel laying with Troy on my roof eating Mint Chip Ice cream? It's three of my favorite things at once, as strange as that sounds.
"Yeah." Troy readjusted so He was laying rather close to me, we both propped ourselves up on our elbows so we could see each other better. "We kind of... broke up." He nodded.
"Troy I'm sorry." I said sincerly, I do have a heart believe it or not. Troy looked at me with a small smile. A smile I felt I could get lost in... ew I'm turning cheesey, no more romance novels for me.
"So am I." He leaned forward and kissed me. After the shock passed and I got the pleasent tingly feeling in my toes I kissed back. After a minute we pulled away and I could help but giggle. "What?" he asked me, looking up at my eyes.
"You taste like Mint chocolate chip." I said between giggles. Troy laughed and nudged me with his elbow.
"You're off your rocker." He shook his head.
"I like me off my rocker thank you." I smiled at him.
"I like you off your rocker too." He decided, before leaning forward and kissing me again.
