Chapter Afterwards
I woke up with a headache. It wasn’t terrible, just annoying… I noticed that I was warm, and I heard a light thumping nose… The sound was pleasant… I just listened to it for several minutes. When I finally went to get up I felt arms around me, my reaction was confusion at first. Then I saw Elizabeth, I had been laying on her chest… She was in her underwear, I jumped away in shock.
I was trying to figure out what had happened last night when she started waking up. “Huh? Red, is that you?”
She was trying to open her eyes, I wanted to know why she was in my room. “Why are you in here?!”
She rubbed her eyes and looked at me, then she looked down. “You don’t remember then?”
Remember what? “W-What? I don’t know what’s going on right now?!” We sat in silence for several minutes, I spent that time trying to figure out what happen. I remember her shoving a bottle in my mouth, then barging into my room. She tried climbed into my bed with me and… Then I remembered what she said. “I-I’m sorry.”
She looked up. “Sorry about what?”
I was the one looking down now. “I just remembered… I don’t know how I feel about it though.”
She gave me a weak smile. “It’s ok Red, if you don’t want to you don’t have to.”
She was giving me a choice… “It’s not that I don’t want to it’s just… I don’t know what to do. I’ve only had people mentor me. I had Kayla and Owen before but, I don’t know… It felt fake, this feels real. I don’t know how I’m supposed to feel about it.”
She crawled towards me, and put her hand on my thigh. That was when I realized I was in my underwear… “Shh.” She pulled me close to her, this was embarrassing! “It’s okay. You can decide how you feel about it later, just enjoy what you have now.” I heard a small creaking noise, it was faint but I definitely heard it. “I’ll say, your pretty good in bed. I didn’t know you could move that way.” My face turned red, what was she saying.
I heard the door slam open and a scream. “WHAT!!!!” it was Jessica. “WHAT DID YOU TWO DO LAST NIGHT!?” Elizabeth looked defiantly in the direction of the door and then kissed me. She was holding me tightly, why was I enjoying this? “ELIZABETH I WILL KICK YOUR ASS!” Jessica was furious but Elizabeth was smiling. She leaned backwards and not letting go of me, she threw the blanket over us. She pinched me in the ribs, it hurt and I let out a squeaking noise and tried to pull away. I looked over at Jessica and her face was bright red, she was pissed. I didn’t understand why though.
I was getting concerned. “Jessica. Why are you so angry?”
She looked at me sternly. “I remember what she convinced me to do last night. She took advantage of you and I’m probably going to kill her!”
Was she serious? No, I think she was, her face said it all. Elizabeth thought it was funny though! I didn’t want her to kill Elizabeth. I did something that surprised all three of us. I kissed Elizabeth, it felt weird; We stayed like that for about thirty seconds before Elizabeth pulled away…
She stared at me for a few seconds before giving me the biggest grin and hugging me tightly. “I knew you wanted to be mine!” She pulled me close and kissed me again, I didn’t know how I felt about this but I needed to keep Jessica from killing her…
I looked over at Jessica, she looked irritated rather than angry now. “Red… get off of her, NOW!” I jumped up and wrapped myself in the blanket. She walked over and grabbed Elizabeth by her hair.
She dragged her out kicking and screaming. “I’m sorry I’m sorry I’m sorry I won’t do it again I’m Sorry!” I heard the door to outside open and a few smacking noises. Then I heard the door close and Jessica walking in holding Elizabeth in the air. She dropped her on the floor, Elizabeth was out.
Jessica was staring at me now. I was scared. “Y-y-y-you’re not going to do that to me, are you?!”
She looked evil right now, it was terrifying. “I don’t know, I just watched you do something incredibly stupid! Why shouldn’t I kick your ass as well?!”
I couldn’t think of anything… “I didn’t do anything wrong?”
Her face went blank, then she looked angry again. “Come here…” I felt like disobeying her would be the worst option here. I got up and kept the blanket around me and walked up to her.
She grabbed me by the hair on top of my head and pulled it towards her. “Ow ow ow ow ow ow! That hurts please stop!”
She looked me in the eye. “Don’t be an idiot. You don’t play along with one of her gags, get me fired up, and then pull that shit!”
It hurt, she was pulling really hard. “I thought you were actually going to kill her! I’m sorry I didn’t know!”
Her expression changed immediately… “You took me seriously…?”
I felt like I was going to cry, it really hurt. “It hurts! Please let go!”
She let go of my hair and I fell down. “Sorry… You probably shouldn’t take me so seriously when I’m angry.”
That’s the stupidest thing I’ve heard her say. “Don’t take you seriously! WHAT?! If I wouldn’t have taken you seriously the first time we met you probably would have killed me!”
She stared at me… It was silent, I felt like I did something wrong… She looked down. “I guess you’re right… Tell you what, leave Elizabeth on the floor and let’s go get something to eat.”
What? “Why would you want to leave her on the floor? You just beat the crap out of her! We can’t do that!”
She started walking out of the room. “She’s a tough girl, she’ll be fine.”
I was hungry but I didn’t want to leave her on the floor, I got some clothes on and waited for Jessica to leave the hallway. I put her on my bed and caught up with Jessica.
