LUCY
Who did he think he was asking me to his church tonight? Do I look like a church girl to you? Absolutely not if anything I am the exact opposite of what you would find in church. I am not part of that crowd. I walk up to my car and get into it. Luckily I escaped more torment from the goons. I hope Seth talked to them after chemistry. I actually had to poke him with my bare finger like one hundred times before he actually woke up from his comatose state. For a second I thought he died. But he did look kind of cute sleeping there on the desk with his hair dancing over his face.
What am I thinking? These are dangerous thoughts Lucy. Don’t go there; you have someone very special to you. I shake my head to clear my thoughts. Think about Charlie and about tonight. Yeah I’ll think about that. Tonight should be fun though. I have been looking forward to it ever since Charlie moved out. The house is so empty without him and mom has been drink more without Charlie telling her when to stop.
When I get home I am not surprised to see my mother’s car in the driveway. She usually comes home around 3 for and afternoon drink. When I walk in the door there is a note on the counter I go over and pick it up.
Charlie not coming tonight too busy with school.
Don’t bother me
Mom
Are you kidding me? I take out my phone and dial Charlie’s number.
"Hello" says the deep voice that I know is my brother’s.
"Charlie you’re not coming tonight? Why?" I say half sobbing.
"I'm sorry Lucy.. I’m... just really busy with school" he says. I hang up and run to my room. I start sobbing on my bed, with my face hidden in my pillow. I can’t believe that he would just skip out like that. We have never missed a game night ever! I knew that him moving out would change things! I knew it!
"I told you that he doesn’t really care about you," I look up, it’s mirror me. "I told you so. Now get up and do something with yourself. Your disgusting me by laying there crying." I listen to myself and get up. I walk up to my mirror and stand there waiting for more instruction. "Do I have to tell you to do everything?" She shakes her head at me. "Take out your phone and text Dominic he is probably having a party tonight that he’ll let your sorry butt come to." I do as I am told
