Chapter 5: Perdictions and a helpful hand

For the next few days life was peaceful at the schoolhouse. Well no fires or fight. Ryan and Darrion didn't talk much after their big fight, maybe a look or two from time to time but other than that; they were as silent as stone. Darrion though, didn't need nor wanted to talk to Ryan, she found a friend, someone who didn't make her want to pull her hair out every day. Or when they did talk it was always about how bad the world was or about what was on the news, seeing people dying and wondering when the next judgment would be. They mostly talked about what life was before the rapture. For Darrion she changed it, just a bit, she didn't want Andy to know who she was…just yet.

Every day for two days now Darrion woke up…made sure to stay clear from Janie and Ryan, did her chores, then she went to Andy's room for the rest of the day. When Darrion was done giving out the lunches to everybody she went up to Andy's room.

"You seem to be here every day now." Andy said struggling to sit up in his bed.

"Well it's not like I have anything better to do." Darrion said closing the door and walking to his bed

"Here, I brought you lunch, do you think you can eat?" Darrion said handing the tray on his bed.

"Oh, well… a sandwich…and pudding…what's that? Three days in a row now?" Andy said looking at the food with a grim look on his face.

"It's the only thing that we have to serve 20 people, I'm sorry it's not to your liking but you could find another group of kids to stay with that let you sleep and eat…and scream from pain whenever you like." Darrion said saying the last word slow.

"I never said I didn't want it…all I said is that you could change it up a bit sometimes." Any said biting into his sandwich.

"I think the words you were looking for is, thank you Rosemary for this amazing food you brought me" Darrion said making sure she said her fake name instead of her real name.

"Well, if you provided so variety then I would" Andy said

Darrion raised an eyebrow, wonder if she should make a comeback for what he said, she decided to ignore him, she didn't want this to end up becoming an argument.

"Ok, whatever, I'm not having this argument" Darrion said sitting on Andy's bed

"You just don't want to loss" Andy said

"Ok, sure whatever you say…pudding face." Darrion said laughing at the mess around Andy's face

"What, this…ya...i'm saving it for a rainy day" Andy said whipping his face off

"Sure...whatever you say" Darrion said

"So… what is up with you and blondey?" Andy said which Darrion did not expected

"Who, Jake… nothing!" Darrion said quickly also remember to say Ryan's fake name also

"Well all I remember is that I could hear you guys from up here screaming your butts off at each other"

"We…got in a fight, so what?" Darrion said really not waiting to touch on the subject

"Well, all couples have fights…it was bound to happen" Andy said.

"WHAT! Couple…oh no, no no no! We are NOT a couple on any means" Darrion said shocked by what he just said.

"So, you guys aren't a couple?...well you sure do act like one" Andy said

"We do not! And what makes you think I would go for a guy like…Jake" Stopping at first to remember to say Ryan's fake name

"I don't know I was guessing you two were…not my fault if I was wrong…but it is true you fight like an old couple"

"Whatever think what you want" Darrion said waving this off

"So, why were you to fighting so much the other day?"

"Oh, just…he wasn't thinking and a bunch of bad stuff happened that's all" Darrion said really waiting to change the topic

"Well he must be really stupid to do something to get you, that, mad"

"No… he's not stupid…just, I don't know…doesn't think" Darrion said

"Oh, yes because that makes total sense."

"Yes, it does…" Darrion said

"Whatever you believe princess" Andy said

Darrion looked at the window just wishing Vicki and the others would come back, not just Vicki, Mark, Conrad, and Shelly, but Judd, and Lionel also. She wanted everybody to come back and be a family again, or what she called her family.

"So…how did you get involved with these people?" Andy asked

"Well… let's just say, that boy out there saved my life and the others took me in when I had no one" Darrion said

"What happened?" Andy asked impatiently

"Oh...too long to explain, lets just say…there was more then one person involed with me meeting them" Darrion said really waiting to tell him it was God who showed them to her…but she would work up to that.

"Well, what ever happened to your parents?"

"Um…they well, died…" Darrion said feeling sad for bring her parents back up

"Oh, well…how?"

"Why do you want to know my whole life?" Darrion said standing up tired of all the questions

"Just wondering…sorry"

"It's fine…I just… don't like talking about my past…" Darrion said sitting back down "So, what about you? What's your story?"

"Nothing really exciting…you know most of it...but after the disappearances, I sorda just...disappeared I guess you could put it, I really didn't do anything"

"Ya, I know what you mean"

"Yep, well not that I just love chatting with you but I want to get some sleep so if you don't want to watch me sleep I would ask you to please leave" Andy said

"No not the first thing on my list, bye" Darrion said leaving the room

"Bye"

Darrion closed the door feeling…something odd, like she shouldn't have told him so much about herself, like…he would use it or do something… but Darrion shock it off, she was use to that feeling now so she didn't think much about it, but that didn't help the feeling of it.

Darrion walked down to the kitchen to put Andy's tray in the sink…wait, she had dishes today.

"Oh, great" Darrion said

"What?" a voice came up behind her and it scared her, it was Ryan. That was the first word he said to her since there fight.

"Oh, nothing you should care about, I just realized I have dishes…among a bunch of other stuff" Darrion said walking away from Ryan, she was still mad at him, but…she didn't want to get in a fight

"Oh" Ryan said

"Ya, 'oh' but whatever" Darrion said shrugging her shoulders and walking out of the room.


Ryan wanted to say more to Darrion but knew that it would make things worse, he had to make up for his big mess up the other day. Well he thought of what he could to, but that made him think of what he shouldn't do.

"Where's Judd when you need him, he's always doing stuff like this for Vicki…maybe he could email him, calling would be too risky, but email, Darrion could see that.

Well maybe just do little by little and go from there.Ryan thought to himself, and so he did. He decided to do something that he didn't have to get Darrion, something she would see for herself. And that is when he thought of the dishes.

"Ya, I'll do that! It's a start" Ryan said

Ryan started on the dishes, it took him longer then he thought, by the time he was done it had already been 45minutes.

"Ok so just go to your room and don't say anything" Ryan told himself. And so he did and when he was at the door he saw Darrion walking to the kitchen looking tired and beat. He ran into his room making sure she couldn't see him.


Darrion walked into the kitchen, not happy for what she had to do. But when she walked to the sink, the dishes were all washed and put away.

"What?" Darrion was confused; it was her night to wash. Then she thought to herself

"Ryan…" Darrion whispered to herself. But she didn't know why he did it. And why he would, but he was happy he did. Darrion was tempted to walk to Ryan's room and thank him, but, if he wanted a thank you he would have told her what he had done. So she didn't, she walked to her room and planted herself on the bed. And before she could do or think about anything she was asleep.
