I was sitting on the floor leaning against the wall. I was talking to Audrey on the phone and she sounded pretty bad. I didn’t have to be smart to tell she had been crying. Andy and Max were across from me, no one was talking. Max looked at me angrily. I wonder what the fucks his problem was.1
“Do you want me to come over?” I asked her.2
“I-I don’t know… I guess, I mean if you want.” She said taking a breath.3
I knew that ‘I guess’ meant yes. I smiled to myself.4
“Okay, buhbye, I’ll be there.” I answered then shut the phone.5
I stood up off the floor; Andy and Max looked at me curiously. I pulled up my skinny jeans that were falling off. I slipped open the window and laughed to myself, I never really used a door.6
“Where are you going?” Max yelled at me after I yanked open the window.7
I looked at him and brushed my bangs out of my face so I could see him well.8
“Audrey’s… She was crying,” I answered throwing one leg out the window and resting it on the windowsill. 9
“Why don’t you just go sell drugs and leave her alone?” Max said harshly to me.10
I’m not going to lie, that fucking hurt. I hated my brothers for selling drugs, I hated my family. He didn’t need to bring them up as an insult. 11
“Maybe she doesn’t want me to leave her alone, fucking prick…” I muttered throwing the other leg out the window and jumping.12
I didn’t honestly believe what I said. Maybe Audrey wanted me to leave her alone, I’d never know. For now though, I was happy to have her in my life as she was.13
I shivered realizing how cold it was, and I only had on a grey tight short sleeved shirt and tight black vintage skinnys. I shoved my hands in my pockets and quickened my pace.14
Luckily for me Andy’s house was just around the corner from Andy’s. Audrey’s window was always right in front of a long tree with a branch that pretty much touched her window; it wasn’t that hard to get into Audrey’s room.15
I grabbed hold of the tree and started climbing. The bark hurt my cold hands but it didn’t matter, there wasn’t much more to climb. I slid over on the branch and popped her window open. I saw her shiver as I climbed in. I was shivering too, not as bad as her but still.16
She smiled at me and lifted the blanket a little bit and patted next to her. I dived in, she laughed a little. I pushed close to her and wrapped my arms around her lower stomach shivering. She leaned away a little bit, feeling a little hurt I pulled my hands away.17
“Why were you crying?” I asked her softly.18
“I overreacted…” She muttered.19
I could tell that whatever made her cry meant a lot to her. Audrey was a good liar but I could always tell. Plus her beautiful icy blue eyes were red and if she overreacted there wouldn’t be that many tears.20
“No… Tell me,” I said my voice pleading.21
“My parents were talking to me and my dad called me a fat ugly prostitute…no big deal,” She whispered.22
I hugged her tightly trying to hide my shock. Audrey wasn’t fat, in fact she was skinny enough that I thought something was wrong, but I didn’t say anything. In fact she was the weird kind of thin; the thin arms and legs and a flat tummy, but defiantly not a flat chest, whoops that last though slipped in. She also wasn’t a prostitute, anyone should know that. But most of she wasn’t ugly, any guy would go weak in the knees for her and she didn’t even know it.23
“You’re not fat, you’re not a prostitute, and you’re defiantly not ugly.” I whispered in her ear.24
She nodded slowly and smiled a bit. Good, it was awesome to see her smiled.25
“Do you want to skip school tomorrow?” She asked me randomly.26
“Who?” I asked confused.27
Spending a day with her and Max would be hell, I wouldn’t mind the other guys though.28
“Just you and me…” She said softly.29
My heart almost stopped a beat.30
“Sure but what are we going to do?” I asked her slowly.31
“We could get you snakebites,” She offered.32
I had always wanted snakebites and she always said I’d look awesome with them.33
“That’d be awesome,” I said hugging her.34
She hugged me back and then let out a giant yawn.35
“I’m tired!” She muttered slipping down on the mattress and closing her eyes.36
I laughed a little and leaned my head against the headboard trying not to fall asleep…but I hadn’t slept in over two days and Audrey’s bed was warm and comfortable unlike my own. I closed my eyes…37
