"Baby, you're just too young for things like these! Give them to me... or you'll get hurt!"
Chapter 7: Part 1- Rotten apple
I never thought that I am that immature, but I guess that life always had her ways to surprise us.
I am on the roof of the dorm. With no one but myself, but I wait for someone.
One year has passed since I left that doomed house. I am now 17. And I think that I hit the bottom of the river.
'I had a fight with Sasuke...' I let the time pass for this thought to spread through me, and a smirk has appeared on my face.
The reason is now between my lips.
Class had just ended, and the weekend welcomed me with her short arms.
On my way to the dorm, I've met two boys whom I've never seen before.
I could tell that they are friends which made me feel a feeling which was unknown to me until that moment.
"Hey, Blondie!" One of the two boys has yelled at me from their place, I knew that, but I didn't want to look at them, so I ignored them.
"Wait a minute!" Another voice, which I guess that it's owned by the other boy, has yelled, again, at me.
But I continued to walk ahead.
It was a rainy day; the pavement was wet because of the rain that has stopped with about just ten minutes before the last bell has announced our departure.
A bridge at my left made of grey stone, and the streets at my right where cars often pass by even if there are not many at all, everything was grey like the clouds above my head.
My large dark red sweatshirt is comfortable and keeps me warm but not enough, so I hurried my steps toward my destination.
The street it's completely empty, despite my opinion which revolves in a circle of pure hatred for the cold that has entered in my bones, but also gratefulness for the silence and for a clear road, it seems that my colleagues are ignoring the weather, and that they have put more interest on their precious end of the Friday.
I almost forgot of my only two companions, which were under the bridge the last time when I looked at them, and the single time when I looked at them.
But it was impossible for me to continue my road when the two certain boys have run right in front of me, blocking my way.
"Stay put for one damn minute!" One of the two has spoke with a tired tone, obviously, they ran to catch me. And now they rest, one supporting the other while they try to catch their breath.
I immediately observed that the one with the dark brown eyes and the black hair with a hairstyle that matched Sasuke's in a way , has piercings in both ears and on his bottom lip and even on his right eyebrow, a black cross hanging from his left earlobe has caught my attention.
They shared a long striped scarf in black and white at their necks, like it was connecting them.
The other one it's bit shorter than the other, which is taller, and he has different hair style, a dark red color, and his eyes are a dark green. He also has piercings but not as many as the other, one on his right eyebrow and in his ears.
However, their styles are very much alike, if I look at them like they are in one piece, not two, and the one scarf which they both wear, forced me in a way to look at them as at one piece.
Their clothes are also alike, with dark colors but simple in some way, that if you don't observe the jeans with holes.
I try to think that they are emo or punk rebels, not beggars.
After I inspected them thoroughly, I was even surer of myself.
'I have to run away.'
I didn't say a word, I just stared at them, and I waited until they calmed down and until the red haired boy has talked to me:
"Listen, I know that it might sound odd, but we have nowhere to stay and we wondered if..."
I could tell by his voice that he is sincere in his begging tone, with his hands at his mouth like he is praying to me, and that they are not beggars even if they live on the street, but they are not beggars, yet.
So, all that I said, even if I interrupted him:
"I can't."
I turned to right, I made a step to the right and then I was able to escape.
But I made just one more step and then the hood of my sweatshirt stopped me from advancing further.
I looked at him and he looked back, not impressed, the black haired boy still holds it with his hand, looking at me somehow frustrated.
The red haired boy it's still looking in the place where I've been but now his hands are at his sides.
"Damn it." The black haired boy said and I realized that all of the swearing which I've heard has been from him.
"Look, you'll feel really proud if you let us rot here? We are probably of the same age, I saw you with your rich family once, all I am asking it's some fucked help to get into your school. We need to stay in that dorm so we won't die under this fucking bridge! It will be so fucking simple for you!"
He said, or yelled, some words were yelled, some were not, but the end of his outburst sure was.
I looked at him, not surprised, but a little annoyed.
Not because he spoke the way he did of my not really, family, but because he thought that he deserved help from anyone because he said so.
"Just watch me." I said.
He understood that I wasn't talking about the rest of his outburst but about his question.
He has let go of my hood and I continued to walk to the dorm.
I didn't look back but I could say that the black haired boy is still angry but the red haired boy is sad. For a second, I felt bad just for him.
When I arrived, Sasuke was not there.
So I stood on the bed and I thought in the pure silence.
'He said that he saw me with my rich family.' I thought while looking at the white ceiling and then at the window that was open, the rain has started.
I got up, and I walked to the window, I wanted to close it but instead, I stared at the pouring rain and I listened at her song, the song made by the tears, the tears of the sky. While I remembered.
'I also remember his face, his eyes and his arrogance. When I was younger, I was forced and I had no word to say towards my family's wishes.
There were those really fancy dinners in which I was obliged to participate.
His family is also rich or at least it was then; his father is a friend of my step father. So, I've seen him once at one of those fancy dinners.
But he wasn't very different, I guess he had to take off his piercing for those dinners, but the holes were still there even with years ago; well, now their number has increased, but still…'
I closed the window, but I didn't moved from that place, I stood with my back against the window, the thunders, I can feel them, vibrating through the window.
And so, I closed my eyes and continued to remember.
'Like now, I have participated at one of his outbursts even then. Two families, at one huge table, but he didn't cared.
I was so young so I didn't know what they were talking about, I didn't paid attention, and I didn't cared. I almost couldn't hear them, but I know, I heard him.'
"You have no right to talk about him in this way. You don't know him! I don't care that you are my father. I do not allow you. He said."
'I spoke word by word to the silence, the words he has spoke in that night to defend someone that I knew nothing about, but now that I think better, I know who he was talking about.'
I sigh and then, I've put myself in bed again.
'After all, you had no choice but to run away with him, didn't you? Cloud?"
I spoke to the silence and just the silence answered me.
The door of the room was being unlocked by someone.
All I did was to pretend that I sleep but I could not sleep. The shadows danced in the dark. I watched them all night long.
To be continued…
Cloud is my character and the other one also; I hope you will like them and their story.
So for explanation, the beginning of the chapter is the present, the rest is just a remembering the situation why he had a fight and stuff, but this chapter will have two parts, this is just part one, or even three parts, anyway, the action happens in the other, here, you just met them and yeah, knew something.
The other part will explain some things but if you have a question then tell me.
I just like very much how I made them and how I know them in my head, you will know them two.
It took some time but it's here! So tell me your opinion!
