Chapter 12: Oh Dear...

It's been two day's. I've read everything there is to read, played every instrument, explored the whole of this place until I know it like the back of my hand.

"I'm booored!" I moaned, I was leaning on Ridge's head while he was fiddling around with a computer.

"Find something to do..." He muttered, quickly tapping the key's.

"There's nothing to do! The only other thing to do is watch TV, but I don't want to watch TV!" I wined, not caring if I sounded like a child.

"Then... I don't know, work on separating that thing, what's it called? The bond to Minecraftia."

"I can't." I muttered, teleporting around the room, "It isn't the right time."

Ridge sighed and logged off. "Well, I guess there's exploring Bristol..."

My eye's lit up, not seeing the look's the other people gave Ridge. "Of course! I've seen this planet, but not first-hand! This is so exciting! You lot can show me around!"

"Umm, how the hell are we going to do that? And we don't exactly look normal, do we?" Asked Lewis.

"Easy, I just apply a temporary illusion. But you can't let anyone touch you, because they would feel the actual thing. For example, they would feel fur if they touched Panda!"

Everyone just stared at me, and my smile dropped. "What? Don't you guy's want to see your home again?"

"It's just... I kinda need to... finish editing! Yeah, I need to upload this video." Martyn said hesitantly. Everyone pitched in, saying every single excuse they could thing of. I raised a eyebrow, before sighing, and flopping onto a sofa. "You guy's are so mean. It's like your afraid to show something, I don't know, like you don't think Bristol is good enough... So why not Japan? or London? Maybe Hawaii?" I looked up hopefully, but noticed everyone had returned to their computer's, except Ridge. I resisted the urge to let out another sigh, and I teleported away. Okay, if they won't show me, I guess I'm going to be my own personal tour-guide...

I shook my head, and looked around. I had appeared in a small park, and luckily no-one was around. Thanking my lucky star's, I quickly turn my clothes into a retro outfit, which I personally think, I rock!

Grabbing my bag, which has all my thing's in it, including my sword, I walked quickly around the park, toward's the "Bristol Museum and Art Gallery". Once I had got there, I casually walked in, and tried to act "normal". Of course, that's quite a task to do when you have been living with the weirdest bunch of people. So I just walked around, and read everything as quickly as I could. Of course I got a few funny look's as I looked at exhibition after exhibition, but they didn't concern me. All this information! Sure, most of it I knew, but seeing it up close... is fascinating!

Slowly, I made my way to another room, stopping, scanning, walk, stopping, scanning, walk. It slowly turned into a routine that I was comfortable with, and my eye's was wide with childish wonder.

"Excuse me ma'am, but your standing on my bag..." Someone muttered. I look around to see that they had not lied, and I was standing on a strap.

"Sorry!" I said, lifting my foot, and I turned around to see who I was talking to. He was a young man, with that personality that practically screamed "nerd". I smiled and carried on walking, fully aware of the weird look he gave me. God-dammit, why was all these people staring at me? I look perfectly normal, nothing weird about me, no hidden tails, no crazy horns, just... me. I crossed my arm's, annoyed that that simple thing was keeping me from having a good time, I just hated being... analysed. Reminds me of... ugh, it's to horrible to think.

Shaking my head slightly, I decided to find a place without any people, and I was tempted to stomp off. But I'm a dignified woman, and shall think about this more carefully.

I walked off, until nobody could see me any-more, and I stomped to my hearts content.

I heard the sound of someone teleport, and I turn around to see Lewis looking a-bit green, wearing normal clothes. I grabbed his arm and forced him to sit down at a nearby bench.

"Why are you here?" I hissed, trying to keep my voice to a minimum.

"Why did you leave without telling any-one?" He whispered back.

"Because you lot wouldn't go with me!" I retaliated. "Now answer my question!"

"Ridge teleported me, to see where you are. We are all looking for you yah know!"

I ran my hand through my hair, and started pacing the room. "I'm not a child! I can take care of myself!"

"But you have no idea what this world is like, it's much more complex then you think! Plus, from now n, your not allowed to leave without one of us with you."

I let out a small groan. "Fine... jeeze, you never let me do anything." I grumbled, grabbing him and teleporting back home.

"No good stupid rules..." I muttered, "Will never see the world..."

"Hey, we have rule's for a reason! No creating black holes, no spawning in pirate's as a prank, no lava pools indoors!" Lewis said. "That stuff is really dangerous you know!"

I glared at him before walking off down a corridor. With a click of my finger's, I set his sleeve on fire, smirking at his surprised shout's. "And no setting people on fire!" He added, just as I slammed the door in his face.

I collapsed onto a chair, kicking myself mentally. All those people who saw me, I'm going to have to wipe their memories now, another boring thing I've got to do. I lean my head back, changing my clothes to my natural outfit, and I close my eye's. I'm just getting wound up by how boring all this stuff is, like for God's sake, does anything change? Everyone just types on their stupid little computer's, not having time to play, or do anything! It's like their being brain-washed, and are forced to watch that small screen, when they can experience it themselves! Like watching stuff through a barred window, when the door is wide open.

"You look really tired."

I smile and opened one eye lazily. "Do I? And Ridge, can you at least say a hello?"

"Unfortunately, I don't roll that way." He chuckled, dusting off invisible dust.

I sigh and looked down at my hand's.

"What?" He said, frowning.

"It's just... I can't help but feel unwanted... I've never had friends in a looong time, and I've forgotten what it's like to feel that I'm just getting on everyone's nerves..." I blink. Wow, that sounded really... deep. I quickly get up, accidentally knocking over a vase. Muttering apologies, I bend down to pick up the broken china, only succeeding in knocking over a nearby table, creating a horrible domino effect. I wince at every crash, smash, and boom. I look down at my feet, before turning around, trying not to cry. Why am I so insecure? This is horrible, I hate it, why-

My mind went blank when I felt Ridge embrace me. I melted into it, shaking slightly, clinging onto him. "Why?" I mutter, my face buried in his shirt. "Why..."

"Shhh, everything's going to be okay." He soothed, rubbing my back. "All people have insecurities, so don't worry about this. Not everyone will be there to help you, to be there for you. But there's always some people to pull you through, who will be there for you when you need them most. Nobody think's your a nuisance, their just stressed, they do have a job to do, dead-line's to do stuff, goal's to achieve."

"So your saying I'm just really lazy?" I mumble.

"No, I'm saying you have already achieved that, they have not. They still have to, and can only do that by completing their work. You have, and is now enjoying the world, and that is what I call awesome."

I slowly stopped shaking, the insecurities banished from my mind. I was also losing a battle to overcome sleep, his voice was kind of hypnotic, cute...

"Thank's Ridge..." I yawn, feeling my eye lid's close. "I'm... sleepy..." And with that said, I fell into a deep slumber, in his arm's.

Placing her gently on the couch, I scratched my head, my thought's a horrible mess. Thinking some fresh air might help, I walk down a hallway, looking for a window.

"Hey, Ridge!" Someone shouted, making me stop and turn to the voice. "You two seemed real chummy back there!"

I stare at Sips and Sjin, trying to contain their laughter. "Hey, I was just helping her, she felt really insecure!"

"Sure!" Sjin laughed, "Helping her with what?"

I pause for a few second's, "Realising-"

"That your in love with her?" Sip's interrupted, making Sjin burst out laughing.

I glare at them before walking off, ignoring their taunting shout's.

"You never denied it!" Sjin called, making me freeze.

"I and not in love with her, okay!?" I shouted, turning around sharply, only to see that the duo had legged it. I stomped my foot before storming out. I don't love her, she's just a good friend, someone who can make anyone laugh, someone who scrunches her nose when annoyed, which is adorable, who's smile can brighten anyone's day, who's eye's are a hazel-brown, and skin like silk, who look's so cute when angry-

God-dammit.

Life's a Bitch.
