This chapter is set alittle after Jan runs into Pepito and Squee. And I'm taking out a few certain parts in chap.1 that I relized don't belong in this story. Well anyways, ON WITH THE FIC!
'Echo in Jan's head'
'Jan in Jan's head'
First sight of home:
Pepito and Squee watched in shock as Jan shoved half of her taco into her mouth. She swallowed quickly and took a long sip of soda, happy to have something to eat for once. "You might want to slow down. You could choke or something bad like that." Squee said softly. She glanced up and put down her second taco. She looked down, emmbarassed at having shown them how hungry she was. Pepito tapped her on the head. "We don't mind. We just don't want you dieing on us."
Jan looked up. She knew it wouldn't hurt much to tell them she was now not only poor but homeless too. As though sencing her thoughts, Pepito leaned back in his seat. "So what were you running from?" he asked. Squee looked up from the sketchbook he had taken out to listen. "Ehhhh...I was running from a burning building, my apartment went up in flames." she said, taking a huge bite of taco. "Soo...you don't have anywhere to go now." said Squee. She nodded and put her feet back down on the floor.
Her heart skiped a beat as her leg touched Peptio's in the small booth. She quickly moved it, ignoring the sudden longing to keep it there. If he had noticed he didn't act like it. "Thanks for the food, guys. I'll see you tommorow ok?" she said, getting up. Pepito mumbled something to Squee and he pulled her back down gentaly. "We have an idea. My parents are out of town for a few weeks so you can stay with me untill we find you somewhere eles to go." he said. Jan just stared at him. "What? Something wrong?" he asked. She shook her head. "No just wondering how your parents are willing to leave you by yourself"
Squee just laughed and smiled at her. "They always do that. They always tell me to get run over by a bus too, but that's a different story." he said. She felt her mouth drop open some. How could someone say that to their child? Neither boy waited for her to say something. Squee threw away their garbage and Pepito lead Jan to the door.
They had been walking for a good thirty minuetes before Squee pointed ahead. "There's my house," he said "I hope you don't mind a sorta small room or anything." Jan shook her head and smiled. "I'm just glad to have a place to go. Thanks again" Squee grined.
Pepito glanced at his watch and sighed. "Gotta go amigos. Dad said I need to be home early. See ya." he said, taking off in a different direction. Both Squee and Jan shouted their goodbyes after him and continued walking. As they got closer, Jan noticed a small house that she hadn't seen before. It was more like a shack than anything, with bourded windows and a grassless lawn. The numbers 777 were painted next to the door, which was hanging off it's hinges slightly. She stoped and stared at it as Squee walked up his driveway.
"You coming or not?" he called to her. She turned and ran up the drive, still looking at the little house. "Why dose everybody do that? That place scares me." Squee said going inside. She followed, now curious about 777. "Why dose it scare you" she asked, following him as he lead the way upstairs. He didn't look back as he answered. " 'Cause the scary neighbor man lived there"
She glanced in the genaral direction of the house. Scary neighbor who?
