Chapter 10. Right in the face
Recap:
Now now let's see how I'm going to ask her about Flame and her strange acting around him.
"Sparky. What's the thing with you and Flame?"
______________________________________________________________________________
She frozed at my question."What do you mean? It's nothing." she said with a neutral face but I can see her cheeks turning red.
I scoffed and put my brush down. "Really Sparky? Really? Do you think I'm blind or stupid? Or you don't trust me?"
Her eyes grow big and said fast "No! It's not that!" she sighed.
"Then? What's the problem? He did something to you? If he did I'll kill him just tell me." I said alredy planning who to kill him.
"No, no, no, no! He did nothing! Well, actually nothing bad." she paused for a second. "He is the guy that scared Dante away." she said and looked at me to see my reaction.
I stared at her with a poker face before I grinned ear to ear and jumped on her. "Yeeeey!!! I knew it! I knew that was something between you two, but I never imagined that you two could be a couple!!!"
Her face was completely red by now. "Hoo! Lighty don't you think that you think to far? He doesn't like me!"
I looked at her with a are you stupid face. "I don't think to far! And he likes you trust me. He never smiled, winked, saved, or talked about any girl since now. Trust me, I know my brother and he is not that bad. He is actually a big tedy under that rock exterior."
"I knew it!" she exclaimed happily.
"You knew what? That he is actually a softie? Well he is but just with the right person." I said and winked at her.
She started to paint again. "So do you really think he likes me? I don't know. I don't look like his kind of girl." she said a little bit sad.
I dropped my brush and put my hands on her shoulders. "Listen. I know my brother better than anyone! He wouldn't tell Ethan about some random girl! Even if she was my friend and even if Ethan would've asked him to tell because he is not that kind of person who likes to follow the rules."
She chuckled. "You two are very alike. Don't like following the rules, rock exterior but actually big softies, and completely bad ass." she shook her head. "This family really is something else."
I smiled. "I know. And you see?? We are alike and I like you so he likes you to. And I'll ask him if she likes you to be sure."
She started to panick."No!! You'll ask him nothing! I don't think it's a good idea!"
"Calm down your spark, Sparky." she rolled her eyes at my choice of words. "I won't tell him that you have a crush on him."
"I don't have a crush on him!" she whined but her tomato face betrayed her.
I pinched her cheeks. "The first step is to accept Sparky."
She slapped my hands away. "Maybe I have a crush on him. MAYBE." she added fast when she saw my smirk.
"Prepare Sparky. You two will be the couple of the year. Flarky." I said and made the jazz hands.
"Yeah, yeah whatever. We'll see. Now shut up and paint."
"Fine, fine grumpy pants." I said and started to paint again.

After 2 hours
"We did it!" I said and throw my brush away.
"Yes, finally." Sparky said and jumped on my bed. "Aah. It's sooo fluffy."
"Yes, I know but I'm hungry. Let's go down and eat." I said and started to drag her out of bed.
"NOOOO. It's to comfy!! Leave me alone you demon!" she said and started to kick her legs at me.
"Fine! You can starve then." I said and turned around to leave the room.
She groan. "Waaaait for mee!!" she said and get up from my bed.
We walked our way downstairs in the heaven of food a.k.a my kitchen, and saw that the idiots cars are outside. This means that they are in the kitchen or in their rooms.
I turned to Sparky before we entered the kitchen. "My brothers can be in the kitchen. Let's give them the silent treatment." I said with an evil smirk.
She smirked too."Bring it on."
We entered the kitchen and they were alredy here, how I suspected.
"So, Sparky what you want to eat. Anything specific?" I asked her while looking into the fridge.
"Not really. If it's food, it's fine by me."
"Sis we have some lasagna from yesterday if you want." said River but I ignored him and took some already made burgers.
"Let's go and eat in my room. Or in a place that it doesn't smells like egoistical jerks." I said and walked out of the kitchen with Sparky.
When we arrived in my room we started to laugh like hyaenas.
"That was epic!" Sparky said and we highed five each other.
"Yes, it really was. Now let's eat." I said and took a big bite from that burger.
We ate in silence and after we finished, we talked for 2 hours but our little party was ruined when Sparky had to leave because her parents called her and told her that they have a bussines dinner. Her parents have the best yachts company from America. Their only competition was a company from France.
"Sorry Lighty, but I'll see you at school tomorrow. Don't you dare to skip again!" she said in a fake angry tone while she enterd her car.
"It's fine and please! I can skip classes only with my best friend." I said in a duuh tone.
She starte to laugh. "Good. Then see you tomorrow. Bye Lighty!!" she said and closed the car door.
"Bye Sparky!!" I said and waved my hand because she alredy started her engine.
I waited before she disappeared in distance, then I walked in my roon and jumped in my bed because I was completely exhausted.
Hmm. It wasn't such a bad first day. I thought and felt asleep.
............................................................................................................................................................
Scared of my own image, scared of my own immaturity,
Scared of my own ceiling, scared I'll die of uncertainty,
Fear might be the death of me, fear leads to anxiety,
Don't know what's inside of -
I groaned and punched the alarm clock. Even if I love twenty one pilots, I still can't deal with any sound in the morning. I lazily get out of my bed and went to the bathroom. I did my bussines in 5 minutes and got dressed in a pair of black skinny jeans, a white t-shirt which said I don't have the energy to pretend that I like you today , my favorite black hoodie and a pair of white chucks. I put my hair in a high ponytail and covered my scar. Now I'm ready. In my way to the garage, I stopped in the kitchen and took some waffles because I didn't wanted to eat with my brothers. They are still on the silent treatment. I arrived in the garage and thought at which car I should ride today, because my baby was making some weird noises so I sent him to repair. Finally, I decided to take my black matted Lexus Hybrid. His name is Tiger. I get in Tiger and started the engine. I named him Tiger because the engine starts to roar exactly like a tiger every single time I start it. I speed out of the garage and I arrived at school in 5 minutes. When I searched for a parking lot, I spotted Shiro and I parked next to him.
I went to my locker to take my notebooks and everything I need for 2 hours, but to my surprise Sparky wasn't here. I'm wondering where she could be. I'll send her I masseage in history. I went into my classroom and to my bad luck the jerk was alredy in his place. I went passed him and sit down without saying a thing.
"Morning. I saw that you skipped the last 3 hours you little rebel." he said and I could hear the smirk in his voice even if I was pulling my things for that hour out of my backpack. I ignored him.
"So you are ignoring me now?"
No shit genius
"Why are you ignoring me?"
Because I want and I can
"Very mature Lighty."
"Don't call me ever again Lighty." I said and glared at him.
"And why I shouldn't?" he said with an attitude.
"Because just important people for me can call me that. And you are not one of them." I said and put my earphone in to block him out.
When he saw that he will get nothing from me, he left me alone. After 5 minutes of peace Sam and Sky walked in but to my bad luck they came to me.
"Why aren't you talking to us and why you didn't wait for us this morning?" Sam asked angrily.
"1. I'm ignoring you because you are a prick and you insulted my best friend and 2. Because it's non of your bussines." I said without looking at him.
"Sometimes I don't understand how Lincoln could tolerated you for so long." that fucking prick said with venom.
It hurt. This one really hurt and he knows that I hate talking about Lincoln because, you see, we two were inseparable and his dead hit me hard right in my heart. He was the only one who knew about my problems and helped me through them. But now he's gone, and with him died a part of me. The hoodie I'm wearing right now is my favorite one because was his and it reminds me of him.
I clenched the hoodie's sleeve in my hands and raised the volume in my earphones to ignore him and he left after staring at me for a second. All hour I stayed with my head on my arms, hide after the tall guy in front of me. I didn't wanted to hear or see anyone. Finally the bell rang and I stormed out of the classroom like the day before, but this time the jerk followed me to my locker.
"You know, I don't understand a thing. You said that you don't want to be my friend because I'm a fuckboy but you stayed at lunch with that Aiden guy, who alredy flirted with half of the school. He is a fucker bigger than me." the jerk said.
"Shut the fuck up. It's non of your bussines what I'm doing and with who I'm staying." I said angrily. This kid really knows how to get on my nerves.
"Why because the true hurts? Oh, the little girl is angry! What are you going to do about it? You're gonna run to your brothers and tell them to come and beat me up? Oh wait! You can't cause they hate you too. Even that Lincoln guy I think hates you since I haven't saw him anywhere."he said in my face.
Wrong move fucker.
I faked a punch to his stomach with my right hand and of course he let his guard down, and then my left hand goes flying right in his face. He fells down to the floor holding now his broken nose.
"First dute dracu*! Second Aiden is my brother fucker! Third" I paused and send him a death glare and an evil smile "I don't need my brothers to beat the crap out of you. I can do that better than them." I said and turned around to go to my next classroom while he was still laying on the floor.
In my way to my next class I dial Sparky's number. She gave it to me yesterday at my house.
"Hello?" she answered after the third beep.
"Where are you?" my voice sounded a little bit too angry for my liking.
"In my way to school. I oversleeped because that fucking dinner ended at 1 o'clock! It was horrible!" she said exasperated.
I chuckled. "Move your ass faster before the bell rings. I've got a thing to tell you."
"Really?? Tell me now!" she tried to command me but it doesn't work on me.
"Nope. Move your ass faster if you want to know." I said and ended the call because I arrived at my seat in class.
In less than 5 minutes Sparky runned in class barely breathing.
"TELL ME NOW!" she said and punched the table with both her hands.
"Okay, calm down." I said and started to tell her everything from the fight with Sam to punching the jerk.
Now she was laughing on the floor. Yes, she was laughing so hard that she fell on the floor."Oh, how much I wish to be there when you punched him. I would've videotaped it." she said after she got up and she wipped off her tears.
I laughed at that too. "Yes, that you've been a good idaea."
"Oh, and I'll kill Sam with my bare hands. Or maybe with a tooth brush. Anyway how could you punch him like that? I mean with that first punch as a distraction." she said eyeing me up and down.
I think she knows how to fight too because no normal person would asked that. "I know karate and I practice it since I was 12. And I participated at lots of competitions. What about you? Cause no normal person would know about that distraction punch."
She gave me a big smile. "I know karate too. I practice it since I was 10. What style? Mine is Shotokan." she said with pride.
"Same." I smiled at her."We should practice together one time. We can do that in my basement. I've got a gym there and the ground it's covered with tatami mats**." I said and wiggled my eyebrows at her.
"Deal!!" she said excited.
