Behind My Eyes by Angel (ereader ebook .txt) 📕

*Alice*
My name is Alice Brynn Jones, I’m sixteen, and I’m a fox; you know like werewolves just that I’m a fox, weird right, but no one knows. At my old school everybody said I was weird, stupid, and gothy because I had short black hair, which was natural, that covered my eyes, and I wore black only because it was my favorite color and I didn’t always wear it; anyways a girl came to punch me because apparently she’s the boss, but I grabbed her wrist and made her punch herself. Lots of people laughed but her friends went over to help her and started yelling at me, then I got kicked out of school, and that’s how I ended up her in Annut a small town in Missouri. My brother and I used to live in Jefferson City, but now our fund is low so we went to move in with his buddies, by the way my brother doesn’t know I’m a fox either he thinks I’m a wolf like him.

“Hey dude welcome home.” Cole shook Mark’s hand (my brother) then looked at me and smirked, “Still hiding your eyes, eh?” He went to pull my hair back, but I walked away ignoring him heading in the house.

I walked in and seen Adam munching on the honey bun, he’s the newbie in the pack so I heard anyway. I walk over to him and tap him, “Where’s my room.” I said coldly, but I guess that’s how my voice always sounds like. He looked at me and held up his index finger telling me to wait so he could put his honey bun wrapper up.

He went downstairs to the basement and told me it was my room. I opened the door to a mess of papers, dust, boxes, and probably even rats, and my bed was old and dusty, “Enjoy.” He said sarcastically walking over and bounced on the bed getting the dust off, “I’ll wash the sheets if you want.” Taking the sheets off, I guess he didn’t need my answer.

“Ok thanks.” I set my bag by the end of the bed, then sitting on a broken chair. I went over to a box that had tools in it. Soon I got all the supplies I needed and went to work.

*Adam*
This was the first time I have ever met Alice, and she isn’t much of what the guys told me. They said “she’s a slut, to weird, nosy, selfish, picky, bitchy, and that just sounded like every other girl except weird. Alice was a little weird, but she didn’t look sluty, selfish, picky, or nosy, but maybe bitchy her voice was cold.

I walked in the laundry room and turned the washer on. “Did you hear the slut is here. Oh we’re going to have some fun.” I heard Christopher or Chris talking to Luke from the kitchen. I sighed and put the sheets in along with some other clothes. I walked in and got two glasses out for me and Alice and poured Sunny D, I hope she likes this stuff. “Mhm I’m gunna buy some condoms, be back soon.” Chris sneered, fist pounding Luke. I rolled my eyes and went downstairs seeing Alice fixing up a chair.

“So you can fix stuff?” I smiled and set the glasses down on the table, she however continued working, “Hm she must have not heard me.” I whispered to myself and went over and taped her shoulder. She stopped and looked up slowly, but not all the way, only where she would have to roll her eyes to the top of her head to see me. “So you don’t like showing your eyes?” I grinned stupidly and she slightly nodded her head, “Well I made Sunny D if you like.” I nervously pointed to the glasses; she looked like the type of girl you wouldn’t want to piss off. She stopped working and headed for her glass taking a sip.

“Thanks.” She said even more coldly than last time, I gulped as she set down her glass and then heading for work again.

“Do you always sound this cold?” I asked hoping that I didn’t sound mean. She nodded her head finishing the chair, and then picked up one the paint buckets and painted it black. “So you like black?” She nodded her head again. “You don’t like talking much do you?” She shook her head, man she’s hopeless. “So why’d you move here?” She then looked at me stepping in front of me her head inches from my chest, I wonder if I annoyed her.

She lifted her head up just a little bit, “A girl,” she started, “almost punched me, but lucky she was dumb and slow.” She lifted her hand demonstrating the girl’s swing, “I took her wrist forcing her hand to punch herself, repeatedly.” She took my wrist making my hand go toward my face but made sure it didn’t touch my face, thank god. “I told the principal that I was one defending myself but he told me that it was uncalled for, and so for that he kicked me out of school.” She said quickly but slowly at the same time; yeah don’t ask me how it’s possible. “My brother said I needed school and since we were low on fund we moved here, the end.” She said more calmly and then closing her hand like she just read a book.

I did an unsteady chuckle, grabbed by glass, and ran upstairs; yep she is scary.

*Alice*

-_- Adam asked lots of questions, but not as many as girls do. I looked at my ceiling that was not that far up, so I grabbed a paint roller, paint, a ladder, and painted it black making white, yellow, and red stars. I finally got done and checked my clock 8:27 and it was 5:00 when I got here, hm I did a pretty good job. Tomorrow I’ll paint the grass and make a pond in the corner and pant tiny flowers on the floor and big flowers along the wall, but first the wall with be painted red with a mixture of purple making the horizon, I know I’m weird.

I went upstairs and spotted the laundry room with Adam in it folding up clothes. He looked at me and gave me my sheets. I then head back down stairs and fix up my bed, man I sure do have a lot to do tomorrow, so I texted my brother good night, pulled out my tomorrow clothes, stripped down to bra and underwear, and went to sleep.

Morning
I woke up and seen stars, I smiled, just what I wanted to see too, man I love the basement. I get up put y peep shirt on with baggy blue jeans, sprayed body spray, coco butter yum, and head upstairs. “Well look who decided to join us, we missed you last night.” Cole raised his head and smirked. Chris, Luke, Mike, and Shawn laughed. I looked at Adam who looks like he just woke up. “Why don’t we have some fun.” Cole looked at Chris who lifted up rubbers, oh brother and speaking of brothers where is he?

“Let’s teach this slut a lesson.” Chris elbowed his buds and they all agreed, but Adam. “Adam don’t you wanna join us?” Everyone then looked at him now.

He sighed looked at me then them, me, them, me, them, “Nah, I think I’ll just sit back and enjoy watching her kick your guy’s ass, I mean she’s pretty bad ass.” He looked at me and smiled, “You will teach these boys a lesson right?”

“One they won’t forget.” I grinned showing my teeth and I admitted when I smile like that I’m pretty scary. I made sure they could see my canines and their eyes bugled.

“Psh, she can’t take us it’s five against one.” Luke said nervously. I took my head and popped it along with my wrist and shoulders. Chris pushed Mike in since his basically the buffest or strongest one.

“Let’s see what you’re made of.” I looked at Adam who seemed entertained; he’s going to be happy that he didn’t join them.

“Meat and bones, what else would I be made out of.” He growled, seems like I got him pissed. I licked my lips as he came for me. He swung at me but I dodged easily and disappeared.
“Where the hell did she go?” Everyone started looking around oh I love this move it gets everyone riled up.

“Up here.” Everyone looked at me sitting on Mike’s shoulders; I smiled wickedly as he reached for me, “tsk, tsk, tsk, no touching.” I grabbed his neck and cracked it, and don’t worry I didn’t kill him only made him unconscious, I think. I jumped from him landing in front of him, and pushed him, and he fell just like a rock. “Anyone else?” They all, but Adam of course, got up at the same time. Well this looks like it’s going to be interesting.

Chris came at me first punched for my face; I dodged swiftly and kicked him in the stomach he went back groaning. Cole and Luke decided to go at the same time, bad idea though. They both swung aiming at my face, but I slid down and in result they punched each other in the face, and both dropped. Chris got back up so I kicked him in the balls and hit him on the pressure point on his neck knocking him out.

When I was done all the boys were passed out around me, and Adam rolling on the floor laughing, “What’s so funny?” I asked curious, I just kicked his buddies’ asses and he’s laughing?
“You..kicked their butts like it was no problem.” He started coughing from laughing too much, then sat up and looked at me, “Man you’re good, who taught you?”

“Instincts, I don’t need anyone to train me.” I said a little harsh, but Adam didn’t seem to care for he was too busy poking his friends making sure they weren’t dead. “Help me carry them to their beds.” I grabbed Cole’s leg but Adam took my hand pushing me away.

“Nah let’s leave them on the floor, their jerks they don’t deserve to be carried to bed.” He go up brushing himself of so I did the same, I did get a little dirt on me. “Want some breakfast?” I nodded and he went in the kitchen getting out some bacon and eggs. He cracked an egg and broke it, so I took one, cracked it and put it in the pan, perfectly. He chuckled, “I was never good at cracking eggs.”

“Was? You’re not very good at your grammar are you?” He looked at me and laughed sarcastically making my lips curve into a little smile.

He smiled, “Finally I got you to smile.” He got excited so I punched him not to hard though, but never leaving the bacon and eggs out of my sight, “Please don’t hurt me.” He ‘pouted’.
We finished cooking and ate, then we got ready for school, and surprisingly the boys were still out, but Adam didn’t want to wait so we left leaving a note for my brother explaining everything.
We pulled in the school driveway and it looked exactly like my old school, same sluts, boys, and teachers. I got out with Adam and all the girls gave me looks, surprise, surprise.
“Adam who’s the goth slut? I hope she’s not your girlfriend.”
