Chapter 34 I could of done that
Harmoni;
After work on Monday, I cornered Raven. I say cornered because sometimes catching that girl is like trying to catch smoke with your bare hands, she could be a slippery little minx when she wanted too.
"Harm, you gotta move, I want coke"
"I need to talk to you" I didn't move because if I moved she would disappear upstairs and I would have to wait for tomorrow and this couldn't wait.
"About what? Please not your boyfriend and Shane's comments, cause we all know that that ain't gonna happen"
"Its got nothing to do with Shane,"
"Then please get outta my way"
I moved but Raven didn't go upstairs, she merely sat on the bench and looked at me, "Ok, what did you want?"
"I was wondering if you could talk to Jamie, about moving into her own room"
"How about you talk to her about kickin her out of her own room"
That was a fair point, it had been Jamie's room before I moved in. The spare bedroom used to be mine, I used to share with my twin but after everything that had happened, I just couldn't go back there, Jamie didn't mind sharing with me but now I guess it was time for one of us to move and I didn't want to go back in that room, even after all this time, the wound still cut deep. Some wounds never heal I guess.
"I'm not kickin her out,"
Raven just looked at me, no matter how you put it at the end of the day I was kicking her out of her own room for my own selfish needs.
"Ok I am, but if you talk to her, she'll listen"
"And she won't hate you"
"And she won't hate me" I added in because that was another reason I didn't want to tell her. I didn't want to lose another sister, I still liked Jamie.
"Fine, but you gotta paint my fingernails"
"Deal"
Jamie;
As I walked to school and countered all the flower petals along the way, Raven stayed beside me. Harmoni and Izzy had fled up ahead, this wasn't looking good so far.
"Am I in trouble?" I like to know when I'm in trouble, maybe I could talk my way out of it, thats a skill I gotta work on apparently, at least according to Iziah.
"No. But today is a good day for you"
"Ooh why? Am I gettin a muffin button?"
Raven chuckled "No honey, I'm still workin on that. But you do get somethin else"
"Ooh is it a puppy?"
"No"
"A kitty?"
"No"
"Well I give up, what is it I get?"
"A brand new room!" Raven threw her arms around, I guess that meant it was good news. I was still confused.
"But I have a room"
"I know you do, but I thought maybe you were old enough to have your own room, and we just so happen to know that there is a vacancy down the hall"
"Is Harmoni mad at me? Is that why she don't wanna share with me?"
"Nah she's not mad at you. But I think its time you had your own room"
"Then why can't she move?"
"You know that room scares her"
I didn't know why but I think it had to do with Brittney, I don't know what happened to her, she just left one day and didn't come back. Good, because she's the reason I'm now 'special'
"So she's not mad at me?"
"Nah, but if you have your own room, do you know what that means?"
I shook my head, I didn't see the silver cloud to this lining. Or something like that.
"You can decorate it any way you want, you don't gotta deal with people sneakin in when your trying to sleep"
"Can I take the curtain?"
"Sure"
Now I was happy again, I got my own room and the curtain! Awesome day right now.
Of course the awesomeness was ruined when I met up with Kaitlyn before English, I had passed Punk and had tried to say sorry about the purple thing in the woods, but he just ignored me. I lost count on how many times I had said sorry, but it was alot.
"You ok Jamie?"
I really liked Kaitlyn and Aj, my first real friends outside of my sisters, they were really nice and I still didn't get why there no money problem was an issue, but apparently when you have no money whores like Barbie pick on you. Yeah, I think its stupid too.
"I said I was sorry to Punk, but he won't listen"
"Aww" Kaitlyn patted my shoulder, "Are you sure it was Punk and not someone else?"
"I'm not that silly Katy"
"Well yesterday you were calling me Aksana all day"
"Sorry bout that"
Kaitlyn waved it aside, "Sweet as."
"Guess what!?" I suddenly remembered my awesome idea, "Do you want to come for a sleepover this weekend? I've never had one before and I thought I'd try it"
"Sure, is Aj coming?'
"We can ask her, but she can if she wants too"
And then I saw him, on his crutches away from the rest of us and not looking at me, at least trying not to make it obvious, he looked at me once and then quickly looked away.
"He won't even let me say sorry" I whispered sadly to Kaitlyn, "I just want him to know that I'm sorry"
"Do you want me to try?"
"Guess it won't hurt"
"Punk!" She called out gaining everyone's attention, "Jam is sorry for whatever it is she did to you and she hopes your knee feels better real soon!"
"Uh thanks?"
"There you go Jamie, all done" Kaitlyn smiled at me proudly.
"I could of done that"
And I bet my voice would of been way louder.
