Chapter Five
She sits on the little white chair in the corner of the room, curled up in a ball. On a normal day she would have been right next to me doing something. Sleeping or just curled up beside me for no apparent reason. But, no this isn't no normal day. She's been like this for two days now. I miss it terribly. I feel like I've done something wrong. She still latches onto me at the studio and holds my hand in public thankfully, but it's like certain things stopped. When I had woken up in the morning these past two days Nirvanas been gone. It scares the ever living crap out of me. So, when she falls asleep on that little chair I'll pick her up and take her to my room. She'll curl up to me and I'll just play around on my laptop and wait for her to wake up. I did that till three in the morning, and that's when I realized she was having a nightmare. When I had her calmed down she tried to escape out of my room."Where are you going Nirvana?" She stops for a second and turns around and runs toward my standing figure. She squeezes me to death and I do the same back to her. "I don't want to get attached to you and then you leave me here for two months. I don't wanna sit here and miss you I don't wanna!" She exclaims like a child. I play around with her hair and mumble."Trust me I'm not leaving you. Your coming with me. I won't leave you. I promise." I've gotten used to her sudden questions and random thoughts that was full of nervousness. I think she has anxiety like me. Not much of ADHD obviously. I mean, I'm surprised she's felt with me for this long.
For once we both fall asleep, and I end up waking up with her there. And I loved every second of it. I missed her messed up hair in the morning. I missed her just being there. I stroke her baby soft face and whisper."I love you Nirvana." She opened up to me quickly and I'm glad she did it. Most people would have stayed quiet for so long not even wanting to touch a weird stranger. But her, she was drawn to me since I saw her when I was younger. I hope god will let me keep her, and not take her away. I never would want her taken away. Never. I hear some knocks being peppered all over my front door loudly. I mentally groan and entangle my self from Nirvanas arms. When I open the door I see a very blurry, I think it's Pete? Oh right, my glasses."What are you doing here." I yawn. He invites his self in and flops down on my couch. "Just making my rounds for the day. As in, I'm explaining the tour with each of you monkeys alone." I smile and nod my head."Yeah, about that, Nirvana is going to be coming with us. She isn't going to take up much room, not even an extra bunk." Pete runs his fingers through his black hair and sighs."Fine. Wait- not even an extra bunk? What d-" I cut him off waving my hands."Get your mind out of the gutter Peter." He gives off a light chuckle with confusion. "Okay 'Mr.Demanding' I'm going to go talk with the others." He stands up and walks out the door and closes the door loudly.
I wince, hoping that didn't wake Nirvana up. Damn Petes habits. I walk back to my-well, technically our bedroom. The beautiful sleeping angel laying there gives me a sense of relief. I think now we are each other's savior. Me basically saving her life from life on the street, and I don't know what she did for me but it was something. She slightly shifted on to the side I was on, so I went to the side she was originally on. Right when I lay down my phone goes off, and of course it has to be on the night stand right next to Nirvana. I quickly reach over her small frame and flip open the phone. "Hello?" I whisper. I hear a soft chuckle from the other end." Well good morning to you too." I hear. Of course my mom has to call this early in the morning. "Better get your butt out of bed because your father is coming to get you. Remember every Friday night is family night." I sigh from my idiotic brain that forgets everything. "Okay, I'm bringing Nirvana if you don't mind." She laughs happily. "I don't mind at all. She's a nice girl. See you soon." I reply back and hang up. I lean back and groan. Jesus Christ. I decided to get my butt up and get dressed. Mentally hoping that Nirvana won't wake up in the next five minutes, I try to put on my jeans, and then finally start putting on my shirt, but I heard a slight rumble from the bed sheets. "Brendon?" I hear her whisper. I quickly put on my shirt and start buttoning it up. "Good morning Nirvana." I say in a cheerful tone.
Her squinting eyes staring at me in amusement ."Where are you going?" She asks. I smile and go over to the table and put my glasses on my face. "We are going to my parents house apparently. Well I new I just kind of maybe forgot." I give a nervous pause as I scratch my neck nervously. " So, when you get your self dolled up we are leaving. Well, when my father gets here. Don't worry he is nice." She sits up at the end of the bed, staring at me with exhaustion. "You don't have to go if you don't want too." She shakes her head and stands up. "I'm fine, just tired." I stand in front of her with my finally buttoned up shirt. My hand kindly resting on her cheek as my thumb goes back and forth. "Are you sure?" She nods and stands up and walks back to her room. I sigh loudly and put my shoes on. I hear a whimper from the other room immediately makes me rush over. I knock on the door and yell ." Nirvana?" I slowly open the door, and find her against the dresser crying. "Nirvana?" I whisper. I run over to her and land on me knee's. "What's wrong?" I put my hands on her face once again, but I'm swiping her tears away. I bring her in a big hug, and stroke her hair like I normally would. "Come on, lets get out of the corner." I pick her up off the ground and hug her to my chest as I walk to the living room. " I-I love you Bren." I smile. "I love you too." she shakes her head." No, no I Love love you." I kiss her forehead and chuckle. Her glassy eyes from crying makes her blue eyes shine. "I do too." I smile and kick my feet up. Then their is a knock on the door. Of course he comes now. " Get ready real quick. I'll go answer the door." I kiss her forehead one last time and sit her down beside me.
When I go to answer the door I ask my self, why was she crying in the first place? "Hey dad, I'll be right out I just got to get my phone and wallet." I run to my room to grab well, you know my phone and wallet. I knock on Nirvana's door then open it slowly. "Hey, are you r-" She gives ma big hug. "Yes, I am." She's acting different all of a sudden. One minute tired to crying to happy. I wish I new what was going in that pretty little head of hers. I drag her to the front door, revealing my father quite surprised. "We are ready." I tell him. He smiles and moves out of the door way for us to exit. She quickly grabs my arm as we start walking down the little hall way with other doors to many apartments. "Do they still live in the same house?" she asks. I nod and smile as an answer. "Why? " She shrugs her shoulders and smiles quickly to cover up her frown that I caught last second. "Sure you still want to come?" She nods and leans her head against my shoulder. We sit in the back of my dad's car because one I didn't want her to be alone in the back and feel uncomfortable, and two I just didn't want to let her go. But, when we pull into my parents drive way she gives me a nervous look. "You'll be okay, I promise." She clings to my arm tighter and lets out a long lasting sigh. Let's just hope this won't be as crazy as it already is.
