"For the record," I hear my mother say to Florence from down stairs, "I didn't tell her to scream at him."
I was up stairs in my room, watching figure skating, then I was going to watch cute cat videos. It's what I always do when I'm sad. I also had Prince Royalty with me to keep me company, because we both love cheese and strawberry ice-cream, so we got a whole bunch (He mostly ate the cheese).
"Can I come in?" Lyrical whispered from behind my door. I hadn't thought about the high possible that Lyrical might have been there when I got...you know.
"Not right now." I said.
"Why not?"
"I'm changing."
"I don't care, I'm coming in."
I screamed as if I was actually changing, but he came in regardless.
"What if I was actually changing in here? You freak-pervert." I said, throwing one of my stray t-shirts at him.
"What did you do?" He asked with a poker face.
"I just tried to help. Besides, if I hadn't made him mad, he probably would have-"
Lyrical pat my head.
"Thanks. I owe you one." I smiled. "In that case, can you watch ice skating with me...?" I asked lowly. He probably didn't hear me, because he was already gone.
--------------------------------------------------------
Sundays, we have baking class, but I really didn't want to do anything that day. I finally felt the sadness set in from not being on Fable. The first time I auditioned, I was four, and I had my Father and Mother. I met Lyrical, we didn't talk much, because he was to snobby to talk to a short one year old looking girl like me. Every other year I auditioned, then the one time I thought I wouldn't get it, I got in...
Then lost it.
I needed to talk to Monarchy, I couldn't tell if he thought I was good or not, but that's better than nothing. Besides, if I can't be on "Unexplored Innocence", what will Robbie do?
"Oh well, they probably replaced me anyway." I thought.
"Where are you going?" My mother asked me from the kitchen. "Just to the park." I love our house because the neighborhood had looks of mysterious allies and has the prettiest trees. We could get a bigger house, but My Mother, Bonnie, Lyrical, and Florence have friends here, plus this neighborhood is like a maze so it's fun to walk to the park or visit friends. I dressed in all white, with a bright red purse and went to the park to go on the swings. I heard kids riding their bikes and guys playing basketball at the court. And nobody was at the swings! I can't step foot to the swings, even if only one person was there. I sat down swing back and forth, planning on doing so until a hour pasted. Unexpectedly, five guys came over to the swings and started acting annoying. They were there for like 20 minutes, then for some reason my swing stopped jerking me back.
"Swinging kinda slow, aren't you?" A guy said from behind me.
He had stopped my swinging and was still holding my chains. The other three guys walked in front of me had creepy grins on their faces.
"I kinda wanted to swing slow."
They laughed.
"Ever thought about swinging higher?" One guy had said.
"Yeah. How about I swing you? I'll swing ya real high..." They laughed wildly.
What was so funny? He pushed me lightly at first, but it slowly got faster.
"Wait, stop!" I screamed loudly.
I dragged my feet on the ground slowing my self down. "Maybe I don't want to swing high!" I said catching my breathe.
"Aw... c'mon, we were having so much fun." The guy behind me said.
I jumped off the swing and back up. "I, um, have to get going so..."
My back bumped against the other three guys and I froze.
"Aw, c'mon..." They whined. They walked up really close to me.
"She's adorable, isn't she?" One guy said. The other guy snorted. "Yeah..." They all laughed. I felt so creeped out, I couldn't move. The way they looked at me was creepy and disturbing...
"Hey! Could you leave her alone? She hads to be somewhere!"
I turned around and met the eyes of Melody!
"Come on, Bernardette." She said, shoving the guys out of her way. She pulled me by my arm and lead me toward the sidewalk.
"Who were they?" Melody asked. I shrugged.
"Don't let people treat you like that, alright? Anyway," Melody said as we crossed the street. "I'm going to have a costume party on the seventeenth. Would you come?"
I couldn't get my words out, so I gave up and just nod.
"Cool. I'm going to be a cowgirl. Chase is going to be a pirate If he even dresses up, and my other brother is going as a jailed dude."
I tapped my lip. "I Don't know what I want to be..." Melody laughed. "Just dress as the first thing that comes to mind-"
"A bunny!" I blurted out.
"A bunny? Don't you think that's kinda racy?"
I blushed. "I mean, you know, a full bunny costume! I've always wanted to do that!" I smiled just thinking about it. "I was kinda hoping you would want to be snow-white?" My heart stops. It was perfect.
