Chapter Three:
"So Eleanor why were you so late this morning." Darin questioned from across the dinner table. I shrugged.
"Overslept." I said boredly, playing with the food on my plate. My mother looked at me.
"Eleanor eat your food and stop playing with it." Darin snapped. I rolled my eyes and took a bite of the mashed potatoes on my plate.
"Happy?" I said with a mouth full of potato. He glared at me from across the table.
"So you just over slept. Nothing happened with any of those boys?" Darin said continuing his interrogation. I rolled my eyes again.
"Yes Darin. I just over slept." I assured him.
"Liar." Leigh coughed. I leaned across the table and punched her. "Ow! Mom, Darin, she punched me!" She whined. My mother rolled her eyes and stayed silent.
"Eleanor be nice to your sister." Darin snapped. I bit the bottom of the inside of my cheek and glared at him.
"Would you quit acting like you're our dad?" I snapped. "You're Layla and Jason's father. Not mine and Leigh's so stop acting like you are."
"Eleanor!" My mother said, surprised by my outburst.
"I'm serious! Stop trying to act like our dad. Me and Leigh don't have a dad in our life and we don't want one. After all the guys mom's been with you may be the best, but that doesn't mean we trust that you're not going to leave or that we want you to play dad. Being married to our mom doesn't mean shit!" I yelled.
"Go to your room Eleanor." Darin snapped. I rolled my eyes and pushed y chair away from the table.
"Gladly." I said angrily as I got up and headed upstairs. I slammed my bedroom door shut as I walked in.I sighed and walked over to my bed, lifting up the mattress slightly and pulling out a small white box. I quietly moved my night stand in front of the door and then sat on the floor in the middle of my room. I carefully opened the box and pulled out the utility blade that was hidden inside it. I shook my head and sighed, then dragged it across my wrist a few times, pressing harder each time. The sharp kiss of the blade and the warm trickle of blood on my wrist felt amazing. I looked down at my wrist.
"Well that's twelve more to add to the collection." I mused. "So much for no more of this shit." I watched the blood run from my wrist for a moment more before put the blade back in it's box and put it back under my mattress. I grabbed the wash cloth and band-aids I had hidden under there and cleaned my wrist up a little. Once I had everything cleaned up I walked over to the light switch and flicked it off, then climbed into bed.
Morning
"Elle your weird hot friend are here." Leigh said as she walked into the kitchen where I was eating breakfast.
"You couldn't just say they're my friend? Why do you have to add the extra adjectives." I said with a mouth full of Froot Loops.
"I could but I knew that would piss you off so I had to do it." Leigh said with a fake smile as she pulled a box of cereal out the the cabinet along with a bowl and sat down next to me. I reached out and slapped the back of her head and took another bit of my cereal as Kendall walked into the kitchen.
"Awh! Leigh you said my friend. I'm not friends with this dork." I whined jokingly through a mouth full of food. Kendall rolled his eyes
"Well aren't you nice. You know I could just let you walk to Logan's alone right?" he threatened as he stole a Froot Loop from my bowl. I swatted his hand away.
"Don't touch my foot Kendork" I said pointing my spoon at him like a weapon. He held his hands up in surrender.
"Alright, alright, I'll leave your food alone." He laughed, lowering his hands to his sides.
"Pick a box, any box." I said before shoveling more cereal into my mouth. He did as I said and sat on top of a box opposite of me. "So, where's Logan? He said he was picking me up."
"His car broke down as he was pulling out of his driveway to come get you so he called me and asked if I'd walk you over to his house." I nodded. It seemed legit. Cars don't like this cold and snow very much."So where's the rest of your family?" Kendall asked. I took another bit of my cereal.
"Church." I said in a disgusted tone.
"Didn't your mom teach you not to talk with food in your mouth?" he questioned. I raised and eyebrow at him then stuck my tongue out at him with all the chewed up food on it. He pretended to gag.
"I told you I wasn't a lady." I said simply as I took that last two bites of my cereal and then drank the milk from my bowl. Some of the milk missed my mouth and ran down my chin. Kendall laughed and threw a towel at my face. I stuck my tongue out at him and wiped the mil off my chin then got up and put my empty bowl in the dishwasher. "Okay lets go." I said, as I closed the door of the dishwasher.
"You're leaving?" Leigh asked. He voice had a hint of excitement in it. I rolled my eyes.
"No I'm gonna play hockey in the living room with my three other invisible friends." I said sarcastically as I walked down the hallway to coat closet. I opened up a box labeled 'Elle's Hockey' and pulled out my hockey skates and grabbed my stick that was leaning against the wall next to the box. "Yeah Leigh I'm leaving. Don't set the house on fire this time." I snapped sending her a sharp look as Kendall helped me put his jacket on over my jersey.
"That was one time!" She said glaring at me. I rolled my eyes.
"No parties, no getting into Darin's alcohol and no smoking, at least not in the house. I don't wanna have to chase you around to kill you today." I warned before walking out the front too with my skates and hockey stick in hand.
"Your sister set you house on fire before?" Kendall as, raising an eyebrow at me. I nodded.
"A week and a half before we moved here. Told her to watch the food while I took care of Jason and Layla and she just walked away so the kitchen set on fire." I said, still annoyed with the incident. Kendall had an amused smirk on his face as he shook his head.
"Your sister seems like a trouble maker." He laughed. I rolled my eyes. He doesn't know the half of it.
"You have no idea. By the time she was twelve she was on probation for multiple charges of possession of drugs and alcohol." I said boredly.
"Like you've never gotten drunk or smoked a little pot." Kendall said. I shook my head.
"Nope. I'll have the occasional cigarette on the off season but the worst trouble I've gotten in was an assault charge but the kid had it coming, he was harassing me for months." I said kicking the snow bank next to me. "I managed to get him to drop the charges though."
"The midget can give a good beating huh?" Kendall joked. I glared at him as I followed him down the road.
"Just because I'm not a walking tree like you doesn't mean I'm short" I snapped, he looked at me like I was crazy. "Don't give me that look. There are actually trees that walk. They move six feet every year and they follow water."
"And you know this how? And yes, you are very short." he said. I hit him with my hockey stick.
"Am not. And I learned it in science." I said. He just laughed and shook his head and continued to lead me to Logan's house.
"What kind of science class was that?" he asked with an amused tone.
"Botany." He burst out laughing. "What?"
"That's not a real class." He said continuing to laugh as he helped me over a snowbank and to the back yard of a green house where we saw Logan Carlos and James out back skating around on the ice hitting each other with their hockey sticks.
"It is too a real class, just ask Logan!" I said as we trudged through the snow.
"Fine I will." he said, catching me as I lost my balance a little on the ice beneath the snow. "Hey Logan is botany a real class?" he asked.
"A pointless one but none the less real." he said.
"Ha! I told you it was real!" I laughed. Kendall rolled his eyes at me and I stuck my tongue out at him.
"Hey Elle, I'm really sorry I didn't pick you up, I tried texting you to let you know my car broke down but you never replied.
"It's fine Logan," I said. I smiled at him as I sat down on the bench next to the hockey rink. It was an impressive rink, its was only slightly smaller than a real one and the ice was smooth and clean. I set my stick and my skates down and untied my boots and set them next to me on the bench before slipping on my skates, grabbing my stick and walking over to the ice.
"SO you guys ready to play?" Carlos asked excitedly, slapping on his helmet. I laughed and rolled my eyes at the Latino boy. The three other boys agreed excitedly and I nodded in agreement.
"We need teams." Logan remind everyone.
"I call Ellie and Logan!" Carlos shouted excitedly. I shrugged and skated over to Carlos and Logan's side of the rink, wobbling a little as I did.
"You sure you played hockey back in Chicago?" Kendall asked, laughing at how unbalanced I was. I smirked, he didn't believe I could skate. Perfect.
"No, I was lying, I've never played hockey a day in my life." I lied as I stood face to face with Kendall. He had a confident look on his face.
"Don't worry, we'll go easy on you. Right James?" he turned to look at James who was about to speak as I slapped the puck away from Kendall who was looking away. I moved quickly, guiding the puck down the rink. Carlos skated ahead of me and I passed the puck to him but James blocked it and started moving it down the other end of the rink. I skated faster, catching up to him quickly. I checked him and knocked him right on his ass as I took the puck back and raced back to the other side of the rink. I was almost at the goal when Kendall tried to check me, I ducked and he missed, causing him to lose his balance and fall as I scored a goal. Carlos and Logan cheered and I gave Kendall a smug look.
"Never played hockey in your life huh?" Kendall said as he picked himself up off the ice. I smirked.
"Yeah I may have lied about lying." Kendall rolled his eyes and gave a small laugh.
"You're pretty good." He commented. I smiled.
"Thanks." I said.
"Pretty good?" Carlos asked. "Dude she's amazing!" James and Logan nodded in agreement.
"She's like a small girl version of you." Logan laughed.
"Except she checks harder than you." James said rubbing his side. "I'm gonna have a bruise there. You're ruining my perfect skin!" he shrieked. I rolled my eyes and laughed.
"It's winter. You're not gonna be walking around shirtless in the winter." I said.
"It could leave permanent damage, My perfect body may never be the same again." He shrieked. I raised an eyebrow at him. And this boy is supposed to play hockey? I wonder how he deals with helmet hair.
"James you're one very manly hockey player." I said sarcastically. He stuck his tongue out at me childishly.
"Okay, okay enough chit chat, lets get back to the game!" Carlos said eagerly.
We continued our game for the next few hours. Every hour and a half to two hours we'd change teams so it'd be fair. Carlos Logan and I won the first game, Kendall, Logan and Carlos won the second, the third game was won by James, Kendall and me. By the time we were starting the fourth game, it was already six o'clock and we were playing using the lights on the back porch of Logan's house.
"Are you guys sure you wanna play another game? It's getting really dark out and we haven't even eaten dinner." Logan said. Everyone just rolled their eyes and kept playing. "Guys I really don't think we should keep playing in the dark, someone's going to get hurt. I sighed and rolled my eyes as I skated over to Logan.
"Live a little Logan, have some fun, take chances." I said, as I grabbed his hands and pulled him around the ice.
"Elle, we were tripping on bumps in the ice from snow when it was light out, now we can't see them, I don't want anyone to get hurt." I laughed and rolled my eyes.
"Getting hurt is part of hockey, it's fun. Break out of the damn shell of yours Logan." I told him as I let go of his hands and skated in backward circles around him.
"Elle.." Logan whined. I stuck my tongue out at him.
"Like I said Logan. Live a little." I said again.
"Elle, limbo!" Carlos said excitedly as he and James held either side of the hockey stick for me to skate underneath. It was probably about three and a half feet off the ice. I could do that. I backed up a couple feet and lined myself up between Carlos and James before skating toward the hockey stick. I leaned back and ducked under it, clearing it by eight or nine inches. I stood back up and turned around still skating backwards.
"See Logan! Didn't get hurt." I said proudly. I probably shouldn't have said that though because right after that I hit a bump in the ice which caused me to fall on my ass and slam my head off the ice. Talk about an instant headache."
"Elle are you okay?" Carlos asked worriedly. All four of the boys skated over to me as I sat up.
"Yeah I'm fine." I said rubbing the back of my head. All four of them looked worried. "I'm fine, really." I reassured them as James helped me up. "I think Logan's right, maybe we should stop playing." They all agreed and we got off the rink and changed back into out regular shoes. "Anyone know what time it is?" I asked as I tied the laces on my boots. Kendall pulled out his phone and looked at the time.
"Shit." he hissed. "It's 6:20. We gotta get going we have practice." he said.
"I'll drop you off at your house." Logan told me. "I'll just take my mom's car." I nodded.
"Okay, Thanks." he smiled at me as we stood up. "See you guys later." I said as I waved to the other guys. They all waved back with their chorus of goodbyes as me and Logan walked around to the front of his house and got in his mom's car. He drove to my house quickly and walked me to the door. "Thanks for the ride Logan, and for inviting me over to play hockey with you guys." I said with a smile. He smiled back.
"No problem." he said. I opened the door and turned to go inside, "Wait, Elle.." I stopped and face him.
"Yeah?" With only a slight hesitation Logan kissed me quickly. I stood there in shock for a moment.
"Bye." he said with a smile before walking back to his car. I walked inside the house and headed upstairs to my room, still in shock from Logan's actions. I fell backwards on my bed, a troubled look crossing my face.
"And you say you're not a slut." Leigh scoffed. I sat up to see her standing in my doorway.
"I'm not Leigh. Fuck off and stay out of my business." I snapped throwing a pillow at her.
"Oh yeah you're totally innocent and definitely not a slut." She laughed. "Did you tell him that you never actually broke up with your boyfriend back in Chicago? Or that you fucked almost the entire hockey team there?"
"Leigh that's not my fault." I snapped. "I didn't want to!"
"Yeah, sure." She scoffed. "Just admit it Elle, you know you're a slut, I know you're a slut, everyone knows you're a slut. You have a slutty vibe. I hope you know that's why those guys are hanging out with you. They all just want to get laid by you." I glared at her.
"Shut the fuck up Leigh!" I shouted.
She rolled her eyes, "You know, I bet mom's proud of you, her oldest daughter growing up to be a slut." And with that said she left. I leaned back and covered my face with a pillow and screaming into it.
That nasty little bitch. My mom's right. Leigh is just like our dad. Then again so am I. And so is Ray Jay. I bet that's why mom hates us. No she loves Ray Jay more than any of us, and she loves Leigh too. I don't now how but she does. I wonder what I did to make my own mother hate me so much. She doesn't hate you, she's just busy and distracted. Yeah that's probably it. No she definitely hates you. Who wouldn't hate a daughter like you. You're a fat ugly slut. You're useless. Of course she hates you. Yep, that sounds a lot more accurate.
I sighed and shook my head as I walked over to my dresser, pulling out a pair of baggy long sweatpants and an old flannel shirt. I cold wet snow covered clothes quickly, avoiding my mirror, and pulled on my pajamas. I walked over to the doubles doors that led to my balcony and opened them, walking onto the balcony and leaning against the cold metal railing. I unconsciously ran my fingers over my wrist as I looked out at the untouched snow in my back yard, feeling the bumps on my wrist.
"Aren't your feet cold?"...
