Wounded Not Defeated

16: Fran

"Our whole group of friends, you'll runaway. We'll hide you."

"No. I won't do it."

"Why not?! You sit here, complaining about how your life is shit and you are a horrible person and shit like that but then here you are, you have an opportunity to help it get better and you fucking refuse to do it!" I started to get pissed.

"Why don't you already say it?" She said getting pissed, too.

"Say what?"

"Call me a fucking coward. I've been waiting this whole phone call to finally hear it."

"You're not a coward, just stupid at times."

"Okay well I got to go before I get hit for being on the phone too long."

"Okay, bye, love you. You are not worthless. You mean the world to all of us. And it would really suck to have one less person in our group."

"Yup love you too bye."

Click!

"Ugh!!!!!" I throw my phone a crossed the room, it bounced off the wall and landed in the fish tank.

"Shit!!"

"Good job babe. Bravo." Blaze claps,

"Shut up wise ass." I snap playfully. "My mom is going to kill me."

Then a slam of the front door makes me jump.

"Why is mom going to kill one of you?" asking both of us,

"Um, hi mommy!" I say with a most innocent smile I could wear.

"What did you do?"

"Wow, I don't even get a hi or anythi-"

"Quit trying to make me forget you did something and just tell me, Pain in My Ass."

"That's not my name." I pointed out trying to make her forget one more time,

"It is now, so tell me."

"I.... may have thrown-my-phone-atthewallanditlandedintothefishtank! Ow! Pleasedon'thurtme!" I say all rushed and cover my head with my head curling up in a ball up against Blaze. She just shakes her head and walks away.

"Wait. What just happened? Did I miss something? You're not going to yell at me? Confusion has just washed over me completely."

"I have more important things to do than to deal with you, wait until your father gets home. I'm really tired."

"Great. *note the sarcasm* Okay! Nighty night mommy!"

"Night Fran."

I frowned, she never calls me Fran, she usually calls me Franny or Franny bananay. What's wrong with her? She must've had a bad day at work.

"You threw your phone into the fish tank?"

"I-,"

"What were you doing? Playing basketball with it and you made it into the fish tank?"

"I didn't mean to do it on purpose."

"That is an iPhone 5c, young lady, this is your last one."

"Really? Thank you! Thank you daddy!"

"Your welcome, be careful with this one."

"Okay! Thank you!" I hug him, then my mom calls him from upstairs.

"He..just...gave..that to you right there...." Blaze stared at me in awe,

"What? My dad's rich and travels a lot."

"Ah."

"Fran!"

"Yeah Dad?"

"Could you bring up the mop?"

"Um..Sure?"

I walk into the kitchen to get the mop then go upstairs into the bathroom.

"Your mother wasn't fast enough to the toilet." My mom had puked all over herself and the floor.

"Aw, Mommy," I said feeling bad for her.

"Don't pity me just clean up this mess for me please?"

"Okay." As I was cleaning I began thinking why she could've puked. She isn't pregnant, well at least she shouldn't be, ate bad food, ate raw food, lack of eating, drinking a Monster Energy on an empty stomach (I know that from experience.) or just a stomach bug? I don't know. I finish, wash my hands and walk downstairs. Blaze is laying down on the couch sleeping, curled up in a blanket.

"Hey babe," I say caressing his cheek,

"Hi," He says sleepily,

"Can I join you?"

"Of course." He lifts the blanket and I crawl into the blanket. We both fall asleep with his arms wrapped around me and my face snuggled into his chest. I wake up two hours later alone in my bed. I smell Blaze's body wash and I knew right there that he was taking a shower. So I turned on my tv and watched spongebob. I hear the shower being turned off and Blaze walks out with he's towel on. He sees me and jumps.

"Hi!"

"Hello," I say amused, "Did I scared you?"

"Pfft. Nope, not at all."

"Sure. Get dressed," I say throwing a pillow at him.

"I am!" He screeches.
"You're gay," I say joking around because of how high he just screeched. He gets mad and walks back into the bathroom. As I sit on my bed confused of what just happened.
