Chapter 3

Why is the word of the day

The next morning, I wake up, feeling warmth on my left side. I look over see Ty sound asleep. I smile to myself. I gently move Ty's head, and get out of bed. I walk over to my dresser, and put some clothes on. When I close the drawer, I see Ty open her hazel eyes. "Hi Adam" She says sleepily. I wave back to her. She smiles, and gets out of bed. She walks towards the door, and as she reaches it, she turns around. "I'm gonna go get dressed. See you later!" As soon as she shuts the door, I remember. I remember why she came last night, I remember how she felt, and I remember that I'm mad. Really mad. I quickly comb my hair, and storm out the room.

I run down the hall. I run so fast, faster than ever before. I run through hallways, until I see Mitch's door. And luckily for me, next door is Jerome. I pound on both doors, and hear mumbles. "Get out!" I scream. The finally walk out, and when they see me, their eyes widen. "Why!" I scream. They look at each other like nothing happened. They both shrug. My face grows hotter, and anger bubbles inside me. "I'm going to ask you one more time. Why?" Mitch shrugs, and Jerome just smiles. He remembers. Jerome whispers something to Mitch, and they both burst out laughing. They have to put their hands on their mouths to shut up. Finally Mitch speaks up. "Because we could!" They high five, and walk back into their rooms. But I'm not through with them.

"Ow, ow, ow! Ok, Mercy! Sky stop!" Mitch yells. I shake my head. They aren't nearly done, they still have a few more painstaking minutes. "Yeah! We surrender! We're sorry Sky! Stop!" Jerome agrees. I punch him in the face to shut him up. I kick Mitch, and push them both to the floor. "You're going to delete that photo, or else!" I yell. They both nod, and back away from me. "You guys are done, got lost." I say, walking out of the room. I'm glad I did that.

"Why did you do that Sky!"

"They needed to pay."

"But…"

"Look, I'm sorry! It's gone now, and that's what matters!" Ty nods, and I hug her. "I know you hate fighting, but I had to." I whisper in her ear. She squeezes me tighter. "Promise me you won't fight again." She says. I nod.

Sorry for the short chapter! Just returned from my very long break!
