Chapter 22
"Now that... That's Savagery at its finest." Emma says after I told her about the conversation with my mom from last night and Peter nods his head in agreement as we sat on my bed.
"But that is a bit irrational. Y'know your mom being mad at her for something she didn't do? And It's been what? 38 years?" Peter asks.
"35 actually but Yeah!" I agree. We stayed quiet for about 3 seconds.
"I just got the sudden feeling of impending doom?" Emma says, looking around. "Or maybe not doom but like, Excitement? Probably Doom though." She adds.
"Why?" Peter asks.
"It just happens sometimes." Emma shrugs.
"Alrighty then." I laugh.
I was talking to Elijah on my bed, I managed to sneak him through the window so that my mom didn't kick him out. We were just sitting across from each other with our legs crossed, talking about eye color and Zodiac signs. It was a weird conversation. It was about 3 hours that we had been talking when Elijah started playing with my hand and the bracelet that looped around my wrist.
"Didn't I get this for you for Christmas?" He asks, looping his index finger around the bracelet. It was a leather bracelet with a simple dagger carved into it.
"Yeah." I recall the memory.
"Do you still have yours?" I ask.
"I do actually, It's in the side pocket of my suitcase." Elijah answers, turning towards my door as if looking into The Pals apartment where his suitcase would be. (Sorry if I was unclear about this but everyone was staying at The Pals apartment with the couple each having their own room (there are three) and Elijah sharing with Ethan and Amie.)
It was the day before Elijah and I went our separate ways before Christmas. We sat together on the couch, my head nuzzles into his side as his wrapped his arms around my and played with my hair.
"I got you a little early Christmas present." He says, shifting so he could fish something out of his pocket. He then Held up a bracelet, well two actually.
"This looks so cool!" I laugh, Grabbing the one he held out to me. It was leather with a Dagger carved into it.
"I've got a Rose on mine." Elijah shows me his Bracelet.
"Wouldn't it make sense of you has the dagger-"
"I literally saw you take down 3 full grown men twice your size in an Alley... There's no way I'm not gonna give you the dagger." He laughed.
"Fair point." I smiled as I latched the bracelet and rested my head back on Elijah's shoulder.
"Your Great. You know that right?" He mumbled, pressing his face into my hair.
"Just great? More like amazing if I'm being honest but okay" I joked,
Smiling.
"Whatever." He laughed.
"We should go out." Elijah says, snapping me out of my thoughts."
"Like you and me or everyone?" I ask.
"Well, Both but I just got a text from Ethan saying everyone is pretty bored so we should go clubbing or something." He tell me, looking at his phone at the text that Ethan sent. I sigh. "Come on, it'll be fun!"
"We haven't changed a bit, have we." I smile.
"Nope!" He laughs. I smile and give in, grabbing his hand and heading for the window. I open it and we climb up the fire escape and I got a big feeling of nostalgia as we reached the roof. I dragged him across the roof and climbed down the fire escape on the other side. I knocked on the window because it was locked. I saw Emma's head snap up and come to the window, letting us in.
"What even-"
"Come on, Fellas! We're going out!"' Elijah proclaims.
Soon enough were all going to a club in downtown Queens. Peter, Emma, Sub, Alex and I planned to just chill out in the corner and talk or something, needing that one of us needs to be the designated driver in case one of us got drunk. We all headed inside and just as expected, it was humid, smelled like alcohol, music was booming, people were grinding on each other and others were buying drinks or straight up making out with each other. What has changed since California... Like honestly? The designated driver crew headed towards a table. Soon enough Denis ran over and grabbed Alex to go to the dance floor.
"Welp, Ones gone." Emma shrugs. We all talked for a while before Flebsy sat in Subs lap.
"Come dance?" He asks and they're gone.
"Shoot! We've lost an other!" Emma jokes.
"We're screwed! It's like One Direction, One of us leaves and we all just fall apart!" I laugh.
"Accurate." Emma laughs.
"Our friends are crazy." Peter laughs, pointing at our friends dancing wildly on the dance floor.
"I'm Crazy, They're plain stupid." Emma takes a sip of her water, looking over the rim. "Sips fact not tea." She says before taking an other sip.
"Technically that's water." I point out. Emma stares at me side ways.
"Because I don't drink!" She exclaims, doing the whip.
"So we could all go get drunk and we would still have a driver?" Peter asks and Emma shrugs.
"Pretty much." She makes a hand motion, her water hanging from her fingertips as she did something that I call the gay wrist. I gasp and point at said gay wrist.
"It's the Gay wrist." I say.
"Sis, you need to know that I'm only 98 percent straight so duh it's the gay wrist." She says as if it was the most obvious thing so both Peter and I are laughing so that's fun. After a while a very drunk Braden came over and leaned against our table and our table was like kinda short so he's leaning at like a 150 Degree angle with his hand propping him up.
"I might loose friends for this, but I support Gays." He slurs.
"Braden, It's me, I love gays more than gays love gays." Emma furrows her eyebrows at her drunk boyfriend. So Peter and I are wheezing on the ground at this point.
"Your are- The best!" I wheeze, clutching my stomach as I stood up.
"You wanna go dance?" Emma asks Braden in that tone that says, You-too?-really-you-too? Tone.
"Sorry, I have a Girlfriend." He hiccups and Emma pinches the bridge of her nose.
"I am both disappointed and Proud." Elijah walked over, also drunk but not Braden Drunk yet. Keyword; Yet.
"What's up my Homies?" He asks, Pronouncing the 'O' in 'Homies' like an 'O' not like how you would actually say it. (H- o- me-s)
"The sky." I answer and Elijah gets in a ready sky, looking up at the ceiling.
"That's not a sky!" He slurs.
"Yeah no Sh*t Sherlock." Emma says, raising her eyebrows at Elijah then slowly she turns her head to me like she was saying, 'Come get your mans'
"Hey, Lije, Twins are the same person just moving back and forth really fast. It's scientifically proven." I start to mess with Elijah's head. He looks really confused as he points at Ethan across the room.
"Wha-" He patted his shirt as if checking that he was still there.
"Bamboozled." Emma comments. Boy was this gonna be fun.
