After I left out of earshot I answered my phone.
"Rae, where the hell are you? Get the fuck home. Now." My dad demanded from the phone.
"I'm coming Dad calm down. Damn." I responded and hung up. I was in deep shit.
I was running fast as I could and guess what I bumped into. Yep your right. The evil tree. I screamed in fury. I knew it was the tree because I was kicking it so hard I left little dents in it.
"Damn you! Damn you to the hell of... tree's! Die you tree bastard!" I kept on kicking it. Note to self: buy a chainsaw. Wait. I put both hands on the tree and thought about the nasty bruise it would leave me. I felt my blood pressure rise. I opened my eyes to see ashes falling like snow. Ashes gently kissed my hair. I felt suddenly tired so I kept on walking. I slowly went into a jog but I couldn't run.
I barely made it home. I ran up the driveway and went through the door that lead to the Kitchen. I walked in and froze. I saw my mom standing there talking on the phone. She turned at the slightest noise of the door slamming and dropped the phone and we both came running towards eachother.
"Baby girl! I missed you so much!" My mom sobbed. I started to sob too. My mom was the only one who could make me cry like this. A happy cry.
"I missed you too mom." I sobbed. She took a step back to take in the changes since I last saw her. My mother was the one who had taught me piano and gave me vocal lessons when I was younger. Later I dropped Piano and Singing for shotokan, but I still use the pretty black grand piano down stairs in the finished basement sometimes.
"You grew your hair out! I got you something, you'll love it." She teased and held it in front of me.
"What is it?" I asked. her trying to snatch it from her hands.
"Oh nothing much just a piano sheet that I bought on broadway..." She smiled. I sqeauled in delight and my dad screamed from his bedroom.
"Shut up! People wanna sleep!"
I rolled my eyes and my mom laughed.
"It's the piano sheet from Wicked for defying gravity!" My mom exclaimed quietly.
"Can I be Elphaba?" I begged. My mother smiled happy I liked the gift.
"I wouldn't have it any other way. Now get going, it's one in the morning, your fathers pissed." She tsked. I ran up the stairs and quietly.
I crushed onto my bed thoughts running wild. I ran a hand through my hair and picked up my favorite book. 'Vampire Academy by Richelle Mead. I plugged in my earphones and read. My favorite part was when Rose and Dimitri get put under a lust spell. Sigh. So romantic. But there was a reason I picked my favorite book up. It had Element magic in it. One of my favorite characters Christian Ozera was a fire user. Like me. I shut the book not finding anything that could help me by skimming through. I toned into the beautiful piano music that found its way from my mothers iPod music into mine. I hummed to it and found my self drifting into a deep sleep.
I woke up the next morning. I looked at the clock. 11:30. I sat up and ran a hand through my hair. I walked down the stairs still in my clothes from the night before. My footsleps were heavy and out of focus because I had just woken up after staying up late. Anna always said I looked like a drunk person when I wake up in the morning after a rough night. The sad part was I knew it was true. I walked into the kitchen to see Ry sitting at the table drinking a cup of coffee.
"Since when do you drink coffee?" I asked blinking so my eyes would adjust to the light.
"Since when do you sleep in your clothes?" He shot back. I smiled. He started to but frowned.
"What happened to your eye Rae?" He asked standing up. I opened my eyes wide forgetting what happened the night before.
"Well, I ditched Steve and met a couple of new friends... They were part of the Cirque Du Freak, on my way there I faceplanted into a tree..." I told him with a hand over my eye. That was why it stung. Ryan frowned yet he was trying to smile.
"You look like a mental patient." I said while walking over trying to grab the Cocoa Rice Crispies. I had to jump and hit them. What I didn't know was that it was open and they all came rushing down on me.
"Rae!" Ryan exclaimed and ran to get the dust-buster while I picked the cereal out of my hair. Ry came with the dust-buster and started dust busting the ground?
"Ry? Would it be Dust-Busting or Vacuming?" I asked still picking the rice crispies out of my mop of curls.
"Rae... How the hell would I know?" He asked finishing the last mount of Rice Crispies.
"Hmmm... I don't know." I answered and walked over to the table and sat down.
"Your a walking disaster Rae." He said with a smile and walked over to grab his coffee.
"Thank you my loving brother." I teased. I looked at my hands and saw little red designs. I frowned and blinked a couple of times. As quickly as it was there it was gone.
"So... What are you getting me?" I asked him eyes searching his. I thought about what to get Ryan. It came to me last night, I wanted to get him a kitten. Ryan was calm just like a cat and animals like cats loved him.
"Nice try." Ry russled my hair.
"Don't do that! We need to get your gift before our birthday, cause I want it to feel at home." I said giving him a hint.
"I'm free today." He said standing up. I smiled.
"Okay, let me get dressed!" I bellowed as I ran up the stairs. I quickly pulled on a pair of jeans and a t shirt and ran a brush through my hair. I ran into my parents room and jumped on my mom like a three year old on Christmas morning.
"Get up, get up, get up get up! You need to drive me and Ryan to the pet store so I can get him his gift!" I screamed but kept it quiet on the pet store part. My dad was in the shower I could tell because the water was running in the connected bathroom of the huge master bedroom.
"Ugh! Fine Rae!" She groaned and got up. I left her to get dressed while I grabbed the money I'd saved for this.
I slid down the railing with my money in my back pocket. I grabbed a pair of black heeled boots and tugged them on. I grabbed my phone and stuck it in my pocket. I saw my mom walk down the stairs. I think she's hungover.
"Party last night?" I asked my mom hands crossed over my chest.
"Major one." She joked trying to find her keys. I tossed them to her.
"What did I tell you about doing that?" My mom scolded. I smiled.
"I like shiny stuff." I joked.
"Where's your brother?" She asked.
"Ry!" I bellowed. He came down the hallway with a cup of coffee for my mom.
"So where are we going?" He asked.
"You won't know until we get there." I snuck up behind him and put a black blindfold over his eyes.
The ride there was hilarious. I tied Ryans hands behind his back so he couldn't take the blindfold off. And I stuck a sock in his mouth. Yes it was clean. I'm not that mean.
Once we reached the pet store I took off his blindfold. He stood there.
I walked in and dragged him to the kittens.
"Am I getting a cat?" He asked. I smiled.
"Yes, yes you are." I smiled.
"Which one do you want." I asked him he walked over to a black cat.
"Awww! She's so cute!" I said. He smiled.
"All of the others are cream. I like her, she's the odd one out." We said simetrically.
"Jinx!" We said at the same time. I laughed.
"Wait you should name her that!" I exclaimed.
"What Jinx? Well it does make sense." The little girl kitten got up from her nap and walked over to the glass and licked her pink nose.
"Awwww." I said.
"Yeah, I want her." Ry said walking over to the lady waiting for us. She walked over and gave us a cage. I went to grab cat food but she stopped me.
"If you adopt a kitten today, you get free supplies." She smiled the same smile that matched mine.
We checked out and walked out the the car with Jinx in her cage.
"Let me see!" My mom pleaded. I took out Jinx and handed her to her.
"Awww whats her name?" She asked. She knew it was a girl because I had already put the pink collar on her with a little bell.
"Jinx." Ryan and I chorussed. Then laughed. The rest of the ride was quiet. I couldn't wait to see my fathers face when he saw my mom let me buy Ryan a cat.
