I got mixed results from the movies so at least I don't think something is awesome and everyone else thinks it's weird. This on will be filled with a few short 'Pov's. Sorry. Ok chapter 8! Happy Easter!
Five:
"Uh… that's confidential." I say jokingly trying to change the subject. "Oh, well, sorry I asked." He says playing along but digging at the same time. "Have you seen Nine?" I ask. "He is up on the roof." "Thanks." I say
While I'm in the elevator going up all I can think is why do we have to be up his high?
When the doors open I walk out cautiously. I spot him… near the edge. He hears me walk out. "Didn't think you were game enough to come up here." He said not meeting my gaze. "I'm not. Will you come inside please?" It freezing outside and I'm only wearing a singlet and shorts. I shiver and hug my stomach. "Nah, I'll be out here for a while." He says. "But you'll freeze." I say. "I'm alright." Go away. He thinks. "Nice try but I'm not leaving until you come here." I say sitting down on the ground. "I just wait here till you're ready." He just sits there. "Why are you mad at me?" I ask after a long silence. "I'm not mad at you. I'm mad at me." He grumbles. Oh, I get it now. "Nine, that happens to me all the time. I barely even felt it." I say truthfully. "Yeah right! I broke your knee and it didn't hurt, let's go with that." He says sarcastically. I decide to do something really stupid. "If I fall your dead." I whisper to myself. I stand up and walk over to the edge where he is sitting one leg on each side of the wall. As I walk closer he asks "What the hell are you doing?" "Being stupid." I say and sit opposite him on the wall. I clutch the edge. "Oh my god. I feel sick." I say looking down. He laughs and pulls me towards him and spins me around so my back is to him and he hugs me tightly. "I'm really sorry." He whispers in my ear. "I can tell. Plus I don't care it didn't hurt." I say trying to turn my head to look at him but I almost slip off the edge. His grip tightens instantly. "Do NOT do that again!" He says laughing. "Do NOT let me go!" I say clutching his arms for dear life itself. We sit up properly again and I shiver. "Cold?" He asks. "No I'm boiling." I say sarcastically. "Let's go back inside." He says. "Good idea."
When we walk inside the doorbell rings. Nine looks through the peephole and says "It's Sarah!" "Four's ex?" I ask. "Yeah." I open the door. "You must be number five." She says sweetly. "You must be a genius. How's Mark?" I say. I've read her mind and in the past two weeks after leaving John she got with Mark but he dumped her. So she came crawling back. Pathetic, isn't it? (A/N: sorry guys I have to make Sarah bad. She is alright I guess but I don't particularly like her.) "I don't have a clue what you talking about." She says all posh like. "where is John?" She asks walking pushing past me. Behind her back I poke my tong out at her and make a face. "Not a fan, hey?" Nine asks. "Underestimation of the year." I say and walk around to find Six.
"Sarah you shouldn't go in there." Marina says very loudly while standing outside four and six's bedroom. I can hear them cursing in there but I can tell Sarah can't. "And why not?" She asks. "Because we're keeping dead bodies in there." I blurt out trying to find a distraction. "You're full of it." She says. "Hey SARAH-" I say her name really loudly so the know to hurry up and disappear. "Do you want to see what I can do with my legacies?" I ask her. "No, I don't." "Well that's too bad SARAH. You're really missing out, SARAH." I say. "Oh you really should SARAH," Marina has started copying me. "They really are quiet interesting SARAH." At that moment Four walks out of the room casually. He says 'Hi' to Marina and I and looks at Sarah then back at us then back to her. "What are you doing here?" He doesn't sound happy. I wouldn't be. "I realized that dumping you was stupid," She says and I cough the word 'stupid' in to my hand. She glares at me. "I've decided to take you back." She says like she is doing him a favour. "What if I don't want you back?" He asks. "What?" She asks. Her face is priceless! It is so hard for me not to laugh. "You heard me." He says. She looks at me and Marina. "And I suppose you think this is funny." Marina and I answer at the same time. Me: "Hilarious." Marina: "Of course not." "You think you're so funny don't you? Well news flash: you're not." Sarah says. "Shoot me." I say. "Gladly." "Ok you have been inside the house way too long." Nine says and starts pulling my towards the door. "Nice meeting you Sarah." I call through the house. Killing her with kindness. Never done it better.
SIX:
"What is Sarah doing here?!" I ask john. "I don't know!" He says. He walks out of the room and I hear their conversation. "What are you doing here?" He doesn't sound happy. I wouldn't be. "I realized that dumping you was stupid," She says and I hear five cough the word 'stupid' in to her hand. "I've decided to take you back." Sarah says like she is doing him a favour. "What if I don't want you back?" He asks. "What?" She asks. "You heard me." He says. "And I suppose you think this is funny." Sarah asks Five and Marina. They answer at the same time. Five: "Hilarious." Marina: "Of course not." "You think you're so funny don't you? Well news flash: you're not." Sarah says. "Shoot me." Five says with bitter sarcasm. "Gladly." Sarah says. "Ok you have been inside the house way too long." Nine says. I decide it's a good time to walk out. "Oh, Sarah. What are you doing here?" I ask like I haven't been listening to the whole conversation. Sarah death glares me. I feel like saying 'bring it on Blondie!' but that would be like inviting a kitten to dine with a Tiger.
Nine:
I grab two of my hoodies before pushing Five out of the door. "I think she likes me." Five jokes. "I beg to differ." I say hit the elevator button to go to the ground floor. "I think we're going to be best friends." Five jokes. "Why did you do that?"' "Do what?" She asks. "Be all catty and stuff." I explain. "There is a lot more to her story then you would think." She says. "Wanna tell me 'bout it?" I ask. "No, maybe another day. I'm still trying to work it out." "Alright. If you want to talk I'm here."
We have been walking around the park for almost 30mins when I see…
Eight:
I sense that john wants to talk to Sarah alone so I decide to him a favour and clear the room. Go get Marina and pull her into the room we now share. "what did you want to show me?" She asks. "Nothing. Just thought four might want to talk to Sarah privately." I explain. "So there was absolutely nothing else you wanted to do with me? Just sit here and do nothing or did you have something else in mind?" She asks smiling dangerously. I gulp. "Uh… well now that you mentioned it…" I start but by then we are already kissing.
Nine:
Maddy. But it can't be. She is dead. Right? Five sees me looking at her and asks "What?" Although she most likely knows the answer she wants me to tell her. I shake my head just as Maddy turns and her eyes land on mine. She excuses herself from the group she was standing with and walks over. Five instantly interlocks our hands and stands closer to me. "Hey, Stanley." Maddy says like she didn't turn me into the mogs and break my heart. "Hi I'm Briar." Five says sticking her hand out for Maddy to shake it. "Nice to meet you, I'm Maddy." Maddy shakes Five's hand hesitantly. Then Five makes a face as if something just registered in her brain. "Hang on, Stanley?" She says smirking. I nod self-consciously. "Wow and I though Dakota was bad." She jokes. "Why did you think Dakota was bad?" I ask. "It's a boy's name." "Oh." She laughs and says to Maddy "Just so you don't have to ask – yes I am one of the loric." "Oh, ok." Maddy says weakly. "Stanley… I just… want to… um… say that… uh… I'm sorry… for… um… selling you out." Five just stands there awkwardly. "Um, 'Stanley'…" five say getting me to look at her when she mouths the word 'trap'. I turn back to Maddy (or maybe it isn't) and am about to say that we need to go when I see a Mog. I get ready to kill it but five beats me to it using her new legacy. Five and I jump into action killing all the mogs we can get our hands on.
There are about 4-5 mogs left and we are turning them to dust (literally). Five has been battling with one of them for a while. The rest are gone and I think of going to help her out but as I think this she glares at me and I think maybe not then. She finally delivers a strike to his stomach with her sword. I'm about to congratulate her when I see her clutching her stomach. She doubles over and starts spewing up blood.
CLIFFIE! Will she die… or will she live? Find out in next chapter. Just wanted to put something out there… I have a 'friend' that is writing a story. She is new to this and she reads my story every week (I think) so I would love it if you read her story called 'fall of five' and it's written by 'The real number five'. Ok question of the week isn't multiple choice this week you can give absolutely any answer… "WHO IS YOU FAVOURITE BAND/ SINGER/ GROUP?"
Favourite. Review. Follow. Read. (F.R.F.R – how do you like that one?)
Love you guys
Be lucky
Lucky Number 9
