“So, you’re finally getting a place.”

“It’s a house.”

I perked up from the backseat and looked at their faces back and forth; Bill and David. There was a bit of a meaningful silence from David for a second.

“What’s it like?” he finally said.

“It’s huge, I’m only renting the attic; it was an ( Read more... )

He padded out from my bedroom in his bare feet. The second toenail on his right foot was black; he must have dropped something on it.

He was fiddling with a button, it looked vaguely familiar. It snapped absently through his fingers, flipping chaotically over his fingertips before he palmed it. His face wasn’t far from me today, even his ears looked ( Read more... )

It wasn’t that big of a deal.

It was just a set of keys.

Nothing was going to happen if I did open the door in the next five seconds.

The door finally swung open with a bang that I really hoped didn’t dent the wall; I really don’t need any landlord drama, just in time to hear one of David’s thick red strums. I think my toes seriously curled in my ( Read more... )

My arms were full of groceries, milk, butter, eggs, ground beef and maize from the little Hispanic mart down the road. Its where all the third gens hang out at the front of and have arguments about who’s darker and over pronounce the names of Aztec and Mayan gods. But its honestly one of the better places in the city, unless you ( Read more... )

“What are you doing?”

“Nothing.”

“What does that even mean?”

Kelsey rolled over onto his back and gave Bill the look. His arms lay in the hollow under his ribs, stacked against each other. The lap blanket tangled up around his legs.

“It means I’m not doing anything.”

The look was ( Read more... )

Its been about a year.  And I'm changing things up a tad.  But I'm updating again. 

David sat in the oversized window seat, his feet hardly touching the ground, like a child on a grown up chair. I sat watching his shoes sway back and forth, he let out a sigh that started on the soft skin of his lips and dissipated softly after. His face turned slightly toward the warmth of the sun coming through the window. Smiling in ( Read more... )

Sorry its been so long since I last updated I had six AP tests and graduation to get through.  I'll have the next bit up tomorrow or tonight.
Lots of Love to the two people who actually read this.

“You were serious when you said you didn’t know him.” It wasn’t a question only a pointless conclusion designed to make us feel better.
“Did he…?” his voice caught at *touch her*. Kelsey was still very young he couldn’t conceive of all the things that could happen like the rest of us. Gorged on the city and its darkness. But Ana made the darkness ( Read more... )

David had scared us when he came through the door; he was shaking and looked like he was about to kill someone. Really, really kill someone. It scared me how upset he was, more upset then I had ever seen him. Once we got home Bill patrolled around the apartment while I turned on the stove while Kelsey made me laugh. I don’t like being kept in the ( Read more... )
