I study him as he does me, "Always."
I'm never what I like
I'm double sided
And I just can't hide
I kind of like it
When I make you cry
'Cause I'm twisted up, twisted up
Inside

I nod and let go of her, kissing her cheek, "See ya 'round?" I ask, "I heard there's this huge camping trip that the teens like us are going on. Are you going?"

I flash a smile and shrug, crossing my arms over my chest again, "Maybe. I don't know yet."

I nod, "You should come. It'll be fun."

I pick up my IPod and wave, walking back to work as I do, knowing my parents are probrably going to yell at me once I do...

I smile and watch him go before heading home, hoping Brenden wasn't in just yet.

I get home and close the door silently, sneaking up the stairs and hoping mom or dad won't see me.

I find Brenden with a bunch of his buddies in the living room and quickly make my way to my room, locking the door and sighing.

I get caught and swear, mom at the bottom of the stairs as she looks up at me, "Downstairs. Now."

I put my stereo and keep it loud enough to hear but quiet enough to keep my brother happy.

She gives me a lecture about being out late and sigh, rolling my eyes.

I sit back and pull out an old book, opening it and smiling at the pages.

Once she finishes, I curl up and fall asleep on the couch.

I fall asleep soon after rereading the first page, right there on the floor.

The next morning, I wake and head into work in wait of orders.

Never forget how special this site is: the older I get, the more I realize how many lonely writers there are who have only family and maybe some friends to read their works. The fact we get free critique, nightly writing pads, free contests and unlimited interaction at *no cost* with people genuinely wanting to help, can not be overstated or overrated
