Unpacking?

    Cara's P.O.V

Have you ever felt like no one is listening to you? Well I do, my parents died last month and every one says i've been acting weird. But, who the fuck cares. Turns out everyone does.

 

I walked into my new room, "Wow...so this is it huh?" I said putting my bags down.

 

"Yeah, sorry this is the only room without a guy in it." Austin,my older brother said.

 

"Haha very funny, but this room is so tiny can i bunk with you?" I asked

 

"I would let you Cara but, Chris is staying in my room." Austin said.

 

"Why am I the only girl here agian?" I said.

 

"Because you are, and thats it. Bye."He said not caring and walked out I sat on my bed and began to unpack. I put my clothes in my dresser and then I gave up. Then I layed down and put some ear buds in my ear and turned on my ipod. Suddenly, Chris walks into my room and pokes my arm. I took out one ear plug and sat up a little.

 

"Yeah," I said.

 

"Need help unpacking?"Chris asked.

 

"If you wanna help,sure." I replied.

 

"Cool." He said and smiled.   Then I got up and gave him a bag. He started unpacking my blankets and making  my bed.

 

"So.... how's lissa?" I asked.

 

"We broke up." He said

 

"Sorry, bout' that."

 

"It's okay, What about Trevor?" He asked

 

"He enlisted into the Air Force."I said shyly

 

"Oh."He said

 

I could tell he felt sorry for me but, I didn't want him to. I opened  my bag and grabbed some speakers and plugged them into my ipod and turned some music on, 'Rebel Love Song' By Black Veil Brides. I started to dance, I saw him began to smile.

 

"What are you laughing at?" I asked

 

"Oh, nothing" he said.

 

"sure..." I said and kept dancing.

 

Xbox Time!

Later that night I walked into Austin's room "Hey bro, have you seen my...." I looked up
"And he's not in here." i said to Chris and walked out.

 

"Wait, wanna play Call Of Duty?" He asked

 

"Umm sure," I said and sat down on his couch.

 

"Great grab a controller, do you know how to play?" He asked

 

"That was a dumb question," I said and began playing then relized I victored the game.

 

"Woah, We just won" He said and hugged me It was a long hug but not awkward. We slowly let go of one another still holding on we looked at each other and kissed. His Lips were sweet and tasted like cheries.
  "Sorry." I said and fake frowned

 

"I'm not, Cara i've liked you for the longest time" Chris said and kissed me agian. And Austin walked in "Chris get off her!" He yelled Chris got up really fast.

 

"How the fuck are you just gonna kiss my little sister, right we we moved in.. i thought i trusted you bro" Austin said

 

"He didden't kiss me i kissed him" I yelled

 

"You don't have to lie for me Cara." Chris said

 

"Cara Go!" Austin said pointing at the door.

 

"No, Because, what we were doing dosnt concern you, Austin!" I yelled

 

"Whatever, Do what you want!" Austin said "But, i won't be there to help when he screws it up, hah or she does" He pointed at me and walked away..

 

Chris walked up to me and held on to my tightly as if I was the last thing on earth.
"It's Okay, don't worry about this"Chris said

 

"It's okay Chris, i'ma go to bed." I said trying not to make it awkward.

 

"Let me walk you there!" He hurried up and said.

 

"Alright, but you just wont give up will you?" I said teasing him.

 

"Nope." He said playing around.

"Morning, Whats wrong?"Jake said and put his other arm around me.

 

"Me and Austin got in to it last night." I said

 Chris's P.O.V
Later that day Jake, Cara, and Me all got in my Car. I open the Door For Cara then got on my side and Jake was already in the back. I looked at Cara as we were driving, she's beautiful. She's what every guy would wan't. She has strawberry brunet hair, a perfect figure, and an emo personalty. Then the song 'The Drug In Me Is You' By Falling In Reverse came on. She started to sing It.

I heard a knock upon my door the other day
I opened it to find death staring in my face
The feel of mortal stalking still reverberates
Everywhere I go I drag this coffin just in case

My bodies tremblin' sends shivers down my spine
Adrenaline kicks in shifts into overdrive,
Your secrets keep you sick your lies keep you alive
Snake eyes every single time you roll with crooked dice
I felt the darkness as it tried to pull me down
The kind of dark that haunts a hundred year old house
I wrestle with my thoughts I shook the hand of doubt
Running from my past I'm praying feet don't fail me now!

I've lost my God Damn mind,
It happens all the time,
I cant believe I'm actually
Meant to be here,
Trying to consume,
The drug in me is you
And I'm so high on misery
Cant you see?

I got these questions always running through my head
So many things that I would like to understand
If we are born to die and we all die to live
Then whats the point of living life if it just contradicts?
I felt the darkness as it tried to pull me down
The kind of dark that haunts a hundred year old house
I wrestle with my thoughts I shook the hand of doubt
Running from my past I'm praying feet don't fail me now!

I've lost my God Damn mind
It happens all the time
I cant believe I'm actually
Meant to be here
Trying to consume,
The drug in me is you
And I'm so high on misery
Can't you see?

I've lost..Myself!
You tried to reach me but you just cant help me
So long,
Goodbye!
You tried to save me it wont work this time

Cause now

I've lost my fucking mind
And there's no fucking time
I can't believe I'm actually
Meant to be here
Trying to consume,
The drug in me is you
And I'm so high on misery
Can't you see?

 

 

We pulled In to the parking lot of Hottpic I turned off the car and we walked in. I walked with Cara and Jake went to the other side store. She grabbed a bunch of shirts and pants.

 

"Come with me!" She grabbed my hand and ran to the dressing rooms. "Stay here, I want you to tell me if I look good or not."

 

"I can answer that right now." I mumbled

 

"What?" She asked

 

"Nothing!" I said and she walked in to a little room. About 2 minutes later she walk's out wearing a blue Sleeping with Sirens shirt and White ripped shorts. "Hot." I said

 

"Oh, am I now?" She asked and walked up to me putting her arms around my neck. She started playing with my hair and I put my arms around her waist.

 

"You have pretty eyes." I said looking in her eyes as deeply as I can.

 

"Thank you," She said and kissed me on my cheek.
