Vanille Evol, unknown . [good e books to read .txt] 📗

"ok well me and Darek are going to go ahead and work now on our poem," I said pointing out.

Court just looked at me annoyingly, then she looked back and Darek and said,"You know after you two are done with your poem you should go ahead and eat dinner with us." She smiled with a flirt. I HATE you, I thought.

"Well sure," Darek smiled softly his eyes smiling too, "as long as Scarlett or your mother don't mind?" He looked at me with a reasuring nod.

"I'm sure that..." Then of course Court interupted my thoughts, again.

"She won't mind," said Court smiling and touching his hand quickly and softly. That WHORE.

I smiled tightly. I felt that if I said anything I would end up screaming at here to GO AWAY.
Court smiled again, flipped her blonde hair, and walked with a hip bouncing back and forth. I thought of course he'd be checking her out by now. But he didn't, he was just looking at me and smiling down.

"Shall we begin?" Darek asked.

"Follow me." I lead him up our new winding up stairs into my bedroom. I kept the door opened because or a rule we had. No boys in the room unless the door is wide open. I opened up my room, a bit embarrased of all the boxes in my unattractive room. It had just unpainted walls and a twin bed with a shabby cloth laying as a blanket for me tonight.

He sits down on the twin sized bed, and as he does the bed squeaks. Ugh, I hate this noise. I clench my eyes, and he looks at me funny. Did I do something? It looked as if he was gonna say.

"Nothing just hate the noise."

"Awe," he says,"well first things first..we need to get to know how we do stuff, and what we do and basically just chemistry about each other."

Chemistry? Where the heck did this come in?

"I mean how we do things," he repeated, as he did so he blused a little bit and the freckles on his skin scrunched, as he turned up his cute nose.

I smiled at him laughingly, "OK babe" I joked, as I meant it. But when I said it, he just stared straight at me. No expression but a little laughter in his eyes. He came a bit closer to me, and sat right next to me. I could feel his jeans brushing my skin grazily. I felt something like a spark. I knew it sounded cheesy, but it was true. He smelt of vanilla and something heavingly that I couldn't put it together. Like cinnamon, darkness, heat,and bit of dark licorice.

"I like the sky, nature, dark colors like your hair," he gestured," I also like the smell of grass right when you wake up and how it blossoms right into your nose. When someone looks at me I feel like they think I am something completely different than who I really am in the inside. When I see a baby cry, it makes me think of how I got abandoned at the age of nine when my single father was murdered right before my eyes. Or how I was left to watch my little sister, Lilah, until something...terrible happened to the both of us."

I watched him silently as a tear flowered down his rose cheek. "I love how it feels to be up in the sky! And how it feels like everything you ever feared is down there, and nobody in the world can bother you."

I felt so sad for him. He just shared lot with me. He was really open for just meeting me, maybe he felt the comfortable presence with each of us, just as I did, But it interested me about what happened that night..and did he fly an airplane or helicopter? "So you like fly airplanes or helicopters," I asked.

"Not exactly.."Darek said. I was going to ask further questioning,but of course he gestured for me to say something. Maybe it was my turn for him to know about me.

"I like the smell of..."

"Coffee and gasoline," he finished for me.

"How did you..know that?" I whispered.

"You don't have to tell me stuff about you," he came up close to my ear.

He got up and looked at the clock, it read 6:45 PM. "Time for dinner..."

"It's only time for dinner when Court yells..." I pointed out. All of the sudden..another creepy thing happened. Court yelled that of course dinner was ready. How did the frick he know all these things! He started out of the room, and looked at me and asked,"You coming?"

"Yeah.."

He grabbed my hand, and pulled me with him to join dinner with my oh so wonderful "family". OMG, he was holding my hand. His hand was strong and held my tiny hand tightly. As we went down, he pulled the tiny wooden chair for me to sit in, in our tiny country dining room.

"Thank you," I smiled.

He smiled faintly and sat in the chair right next to me. My mom sat in front of me like usual, but instead of Court sitting next to Mom like usual, she sat on the left of Darek. She looked up and smiled. He smiled back lightly.

Mom looked up at him and said,"Why aren't you a very handsome man?"

"Mom!" I looked at her embarrassingly.

"Well he is!" she smiled. "Just remember the door is alway going to be.."

"Opened!" I said "I know."

"Good. So what's your name?" She smiled at Darek big.

"Darek...Ms. the food that you made is really delicious," Darek said, stuffing a bunch of mashed potatoes and Chicken into his mouth.

"Well thank you! You know Scarlett used to eat a bunch basically piling a ton on her plate, but after Court said she would get fat and ugly eating that much," Mom looked at Court annoyingly, "she has not been eating that much!"

"It's true if you eat too much though, Mom" Court said.

"I just eat smaller portions," I argued, "and I eat fine." This was so embarrassing by now of course Court would be getting him, he'd feel all awkward and too weirded out by me.

"I think you could never get fat," he said looking at me,"your too pretty."

Did he really just say that? I could feel excitement flying up in my stomache. I looked over at Court, she had a dark expression on her face as if she was ready to kill someone. Ouch, serves you right though.

After this Darek helped my mom with the dishes, and she kept pointing at him and whispering, that he was a keeper. I laughed, and he looked up at me and mom, and we just kept prentending nothing was happening.

Later that evening, Darek got his backpack out of my "room". I walked him out to the door.

"Is your ride here?" I asked. There was no car in sight.

"I lost my dad remember?"

"Don't you live with anyone?" He can't just not live by himself and be in highschool, and be able to pay for a backpack and stuff.

"Yes, I do." I was going to ask who, but I felt a little to nosy.

"So are you just gonna walk then?"

"Maybe."

"What is with the "maybes" or "not exactlys"

He looked at me , smirked and quietly wondered into the streets. After 30 seconds of being stunned, I decided to go after him. I walked into the streets, but he wasn't there. How could he do that? It usually takes a guy or girl 7 minutes to walk out of this area because of how tight everything is. I decided to forget about it. As I walked out of the street, I all of the sudden had a flashback memory of a smirk that a certain boy gave me. I smirked back, and walked into our house. Locking the door, for no danger to come to us.

Everything from after he left my house was perfectly fine...until I came back to school the next lovely day. Court got stupid Darek's number, and I found this out when I got out of her car. I saw Darek and rushed to him, only to be blocked out of the picture when Court bumped her hips right toward Darek. Darek just smiled polietly and didn't even pay attention to me when he was flirting with her. So I did what any independent woman would do, I walked away confidently.

The next day, he still ignored me and now he was just sitting with Court at lunch. Every single frickin day he would seat with Court. When we went and anounced our poems, I went poured my poem to the class about him and sat down. I was patiently waiting to see what Darek would have written, but he never even got asked by Mr. Garret. Even after all the students had said what they thought about that person, Darek didn't even care to tell Mr. Garret he had forgotten about him. After that he just walked away and Court and him were talking again. She even poked his stomache and giggled about "how strong he was". Sure he was strong...cute...handsome...and so incredible sweet and geniune, but...I was just really pissed off!

It had been three weeks by now and I was really just done with Darek. Every day at lunch or in the hallways Court and him would be all cute with each other and I was sick of it! I was surprised he hadn't even come over with Court to her bedroom of "FUN".

I woke up this morning, and thought finally I had to be strong and confident and not always be so smoggled up with a guy. I would look really good today. I got dressed in some leather shorts sounded skanky, but if matched up in the right shirt and shoes did not! I slipped on a white low cut shirt and combat boots. Finally, I added a jean tight jacket ,and took a look in the mirror. Wow, I thought. I looked actually pretty good. I dialed Danny's number, no way would I go with Court to school any more with her acting like this with Darek, I rather go with my best friend Danny. Danny was always the sillest, nerdy girl ever, but I loved her.
