So I think Immy has spent too much time in the past, I think I'm going to do a few chapters just with her living a normal life. By the way there is a time jump in this chapter, this is set 3 months later. Also the ages are made up.
I got out of bed, picking up my crutches which were propped up against my bedside table. I stood up with the help of my crutches, I turned to the wall and looked at Fortiter's drawing on the wall.
I missed him, it turned out that Mike decided to let Fortiter be fostered, I haven't seen him since the day I fell. The took him away when I was still in hospital. Gus' foster parents came back from New York, they had been at my parents hearing. My parents had been sentenced to 12 years in jail, but then after those years they would be tagged for at least another 7 years. I guess, according to the government, what my parents did to me was pretty bad to get that much punishment. Mike had taken me to some centre in London where they discussed security issues concerning me, I was apparently a vulnerable girl who was likely to be attacked.
The press had decided to release the information about me in the future without revealing my identity to the world. According to them it would lead to a lot of people trying to kill me and it would make me probably the person who had the most people wanting to kill her in the whole world. Oh wow, what is my life?
Anyway what else has been going on in the Dumping Ground? Oh yes, Elektra acting very weirdly, she was being nice to Johnny and she joked with him rather than insulted him. Johnny has also been acting very weirdly he was being nice to Elektra and only occasionally teasing her and calling her "Mandy Perkins." Hmm... I think something may be going on. But then again I'm not the only one.
I came downstairs and went to have breakfast, while we were all eating in companionable silence Elektra suddenly said, "Mike is it ok if I go to the library for revision,"
"What?! You revise," Verus said sarcastically.
Elektra shot a look at Verus, they were both 15 and in year 11. Meanwhile I was 15 in a few weeks time and in year 10 along with Johnny and Beta. Frank was in year 12, Rick was in year 11. Carmen, Lily, Tee and Tyler were all in year 9. Meanwhile Jody, Harry and Floss were still in Primary School, Jody year 5 and Harry and Floss in year 4.
"Yes and I've got training," Johnny said, according to Tee Johnny had taken up running after managing to do a half marathon with no training.
"Ok," Mike said.
After breakfast I went to the lounge, where Tee, Rick and Tyler were playing pool,
"ok men," I said,
"and women," Tee added,
"this is the third time this month Johnny and Elektra had given us this excuse," I said.
"Is it time?" Tyler asked.
"Indeed."
When Johnny and Elektra left the house we followed them, I had managed to ditch the crutches. I didn't really need them, only the doctors said I do and they know nothing. We followed them to the end of the road, if they were genuine Elektra would go left to the library and Johnny would go right to the park. Instead they went straight onwards into town.
"They are lying," Tyler said,
"this isn't enough proof," Rick told him.
"vamos amigos," I told them.
"allons-y," Tee said,
"lass uns gehen," Rick replied following our languages theme.
"Um... lets go," Tyler said and we all laughed at his monolingualism.
We followed them into town, they went into a shop and they both came out holding bags full of stuff. We followed them until Tyler started winging that his feet were hurting, so we decided to stop off at a coffee shop. Please take a point to appreciate that we were hiding our appearance by wearing hats and scarves, admittedly it was October but it wasn't that cold, so we were being sent a few weird looks. Tee and Rick went up to get drinks, but Tyler's eyes followed Tee up to the counter.
"So Tyler when are you going to tell her?" I asked, Tyler jumped obviously having forgotten I was there.
"I'm sorry what?" he asked, I repeated my question.
"Tell who?" he asked,
"Tee, duh..." I said trailing off.
"Tell Tee what?"
"That you so fancy her," I told him.
"What! I don't fancy Tee," he said and he started going slightly red.
"You so do it's obvious," I sang, he blushed even more furiously.
"I don't,"
"why deny it's the TRUTH!" I said emphasising the truth.
"What you talking about?" Rick asked as he came back with Tee, with two trays, his full of drinks and Tee's full of cake.
"Um..." Tyler muttered,
"It doesn't matter," I said.
They sat down and we started eating the food, I had paid, it was my treat to them. I still had loads of money from when I had ran away from Burnywood. As we were eating two familiar figures came into the café, both with brown hair but one had blue in it.
"Elektra, Johnny," I whispered nodding in there direction. We quickly disguised ourselves and they went and sat in our view but they had their backs to us. They got drinks and they were talking, I noticed they were both smiling when suddenly Johnny leant over and kissed Elektra. tee squeaked like a mouse who had managed to get stuck under your foot. I quickly shoved my hand in Tee's mouth, to prevent her from making any more sound.
After another hour of watching Elektra and Johnny make out in café we had decided we had had enough and my hand was hurting because it was still in Tee's mouth and she was a very good biter, not in a weird way. Well as normal as having your fist in your friends mouth for over an hour is.
"Awwh, they are so cute together," I said as we walked back,
"yes it would be cute if the guy who was sticking his tongue down Elektra's throat wasn't my brother," Tee said,
"what you jealous Tee," Rick teased.
"because I'm pretty sure we could find you a boyfriend very easily," I said, I saw Tyler turning red. Rick grinned at me.
"No one would want to go out with me," Tee said, in a very that wasn't very her.
"I would," Tyler suddenly announced.
Tee looked shocked, "really?" she asked. Tyler nodded and suddenly Tee grabbed Tyler and started kissing him.
"Bloody hell," I said,
"my sentiments exactly," Rick replied.
They kissed for a few seconds and became apparent they weren't going to stop any time soon.
"Right..." Rick said,
"lets go," I said,
"agreed."
As we walked up the drive Rick suddenly said, "so Elektra and Johnny, who would have known?"
"so Tee and Tyler who would have known?" I asked,
"us," we both said simultaneously and laughed. We walked up to the door and let ourselves in. "What a day!" I exclaimed, Rick laughed and that day only got better.
