Sorry, a little bit of a writer's block. But, it's cleared up now!
Chapter 4- Nothing to be here.
Stupid clue. I almost break my legs, break into a school, bust into my old locker, grab this book, and you know what my thanks is?
I get a nothing!
As I walked I read, flipping the pages fast. Only pausing if I absolutely had to.
Puck followed, of course he followed. I gulped when I got to the picture.
"You know," Puck said, looking over my shoulder. "They really did a horrible job of me."
I rolled my eyes.
"So did you enjoy that?"
I stopped, "enjoy what?"
"The kiss, Dog breath."
I gulped, "Nope." I really hated lying to some people. I mean I really hate it. Almost as close to my old loathings; Everafters, being a Grimm, the Scarlet scum...
"I need so air." I continued walking realizing that we were outside.
"Yeah Grimm. You need some air." He said, rolling his deep, green, eyes…
Knock it off Sabrina! You do not need to doom yourself to him. He won't love you and you know that. You always knew that. I shook my head and stuck my nose back into my book, hoping I didn't seem too stupid.
LATER
Puck and I got back to the house around dinner. Daphne about strangled me with her bare hands and I, well I ignored her and finished the book.
"Someone need hot chocolate?" Daphne walked in as I sat on my bed and looked at the three books before me. The first three cases.
"Thanks," I smiled as she came and sat beside me.
"So, can I read one now?" She asked. I closed my eyes and sighed. I picked up the book and handed it to her.
"careful" I warned as she looked at it.
"So, I can read all of them?" Her eyes filled with hope.
"Um, let's just start on the first one." I said, with a smile.
She shook her head and opened the book with hungry eyes. Soon she was sucked up into her past.
Weirdo.
I thought, lying back on the bed, drinking the hot chocolate. I just need some peace. I shook my head, as if a Grimm could get that. I laughed, spite myself.
Daphne pulled herself out of the world of my- our life.
"What's so funny?" She demanded.
"Oh, you know, a Grimm actually getting some peace."
She shook her head, obviously I wasn't funny to her.
"Fine." I snapped and went back to my hot chocolate.
"You know, I spit in that." She tilted her head to the cup.
What I might have done on any normal day was set the cup down and say 'Eww' but today I shrugged.
"Bottoms up for Daphne spit." I took a huge gulp. "You know," I said, pointing the cup at her, "Your spit is actually pretty good."
She looked sick. As always, I had the last laugh.
NEXT DAY...
In the morning, I sat at the kitchen table, drinking coffee, (Granny said the stuff would stunt my growth but I've grown like a weed.) and think.
A tea party…
A tea party…
Where am I supposed to go? Wonderland all the way back in England and go join the Matter Hatter?
Oh yeah, he's here. Plus he isn't a girl. Tea party…
I cursed under my breath, Daphne looked up at my from her stack of black waffles with a pink, bubbly syrup.
"Red," I said, turning to towards the girl. She seemed to shrink a bit. I loved the girl now, but it seemed she was still a little scared of me.
"Yeah?" She asked.
"Do you think they have your room at the hospital?"
"You mean the mad house?" She asked, I nodded.
"Yeah they should." I nodded, pushing the chair back and walked out, grabbing my car keys as I went.
"Where are you going?" Daphne asked, getting up.
"Oh, nowhere." I said, slipping on my shoes.
"Uh, I think you're going somewhere." She said.
I shrugged and walked out, ran to my car, and put the thing in reverse, and pulled out before one more word left the little girl's mouth.
I started driving down the street. Like I had my driver's licenses!
But I've had it since I was 14. It kind-of helps if you know the town's 'little' secret. I wished I used the car to get to the school, but then Granny would have seen, questions would be asked, and it would just be a big problem.
I smiled to myself…
