We soon arrived at Cindy's place, It was your average Castle Rock home.
Her's was alittle bigger than most, it was 3 stories including the basement. The main floor, the basement, and upstairs were most of the bedrooms were located. It was a beautiful home, thats for sure.
She jumped out of the car, with her tiny purse wrapped on her shoulder. I followed without hesatiation, my gaze towards my hightops. This wasnt the first time Cindy has taken me in. All throughout our friendship this has been happening, more times than nessesary. Sometimes I would sneak out and come here, or Cindy like tonight would pick me up. didnt mind at all, Cindy told me she loved me like her own and refered to me as her daughter when ever my name was mentioned. There was times would lay into Heather for treating me so harshy. I was offered so many times to stay with the Tessios, but I couldnt bring myself to do that.. I was tempted, but I couldnt take their kindness for granted. I had told tons of times how much of a prick I felt about staying in her home so much, but she would always get angery with me for thinking such a thing. She practically begged me to stay with her, I remember so many times when I was leaving to go back to Heather's house would sit at the kitchen table crying her eyes out, begging me not to go. But I had to, and she knew it. There was nothing I could do about it, I had to go back no matter what. Even though is like the mother I wished I had, I couldnt stay with her and cause her that. Maybe if I had time for a job and could help her pay bills, than maybe I would consider moving in with her, but I couldnt at the moment. One of the worst feelings in the world is being given an offer by the one person who makes you feel so loved and having to turn it down, over and over again.
She was my mother, and to turn her down hurt alot.

Cindy led me into the house, nobody was home it was just us, which made it oddly comforting. At least nobody would see my embarssment, only Cindy. had seen these types of things tons of times, just like Cindy, but I hated that. It was like my diginty was being taken away from me little by little. I couldnt help that though, I just had to get use to it.
We slipped our shoes off and ran up the stairs and into her bedroom. When we entered her bedroom I was met by the familiar scent of her brand of perfume, which reminded me of the tiny bottle in the front pouch of my apron.. Shit.. I tossed my apron across the room, if that was broken.. I was dead.. Tottally dead. Cindy looked at me and frowned slightly, she noticed something was on my mind. She could alwyas read me like a book, which I hated at times. She sucked in a deep breath and placed her hand on her hip and looked me deep in the eyes. Here comes the questions..
"Whats wrong?" She asked in a tone that order athority. I shrugged.
"Nothing." I lied. She glared at me, which caused me to sigh quietly.
"Shut the fuck up and tell me." She hissed. I bit my lip out of the nervous habit I had formed so long ago. "The perfume.. I threw my apron across the room.. It could have broke." I nearly whispered. She rolled her dark brown eyes and turned to her closet and began rumaging through it.
"Dont worry about that perfume.. The old bitch can buy more.. And plus, it probley isint broken. I've seen you use that shit, Its one of the most expesive perfume brands I've ever seen. Those bottles are made tough, considering the money she paid for it.. They should be." Cindy replied, passing me a heap of clothes. I looked down at the clothes in my hands and noticed a strapless black sun dress that would brush my thigh. And matching pair of under garments. A small smile crept over my lips as I looked up at her. She smiled warmly before pulling me into one of her familiar tight hugs.
"I'm always here for you. Dont ever think different." She whispered in my ear as we pulled out of eachothers embrace. I nodded and hugged the clothes to my chest. My smile grew as I ran her kind words through out my head once again. Cindy will always be my sister, no matter what happens. She's always here to save me, and always here for me in general. I hope I help her just as much as she helps me.
"Bathroom, Shower, Now." She demanded with a wide smile. I chuckled weakly and sighed walking across her bedroom and into her own personal bathroom. "Thanks Cin." I called as walked into her bathroom. "No problem sister." She replied. I pushed the bathroom door open and stepped in, locking the door behind me, Another habit of mine.
I placed my new clothes on the counter next to the sink and stripped off my soaking wet ones and pushed them in the corner.
I sucked in a deep breath and exhaled slowly as I began to make my way across the bathroom and turned the water knobs to the perfect temputure and stepped in.
The warm water pelted my skin, Like raindrops dropping on the cold cement on a rainy spring day. The warm water felt nice, It was as though I was washing away the bad memory's of todays events. My mood began to lift, as I let the water flow over my pale sun kissed skin. I washed my hair in a matter of minutes before cleaning the rest of my body. One last time I rubbed my fingertips against my scalp, washing all the soapy goo left. My fingers glided once more over my body before I reached out and turned off the tap. The warm flowing water suddenly stopped leaving me in a hot mist in the tiny bathroom. I reached towards Cindys personal towel shelf and pulled a towel towards me and wrapped myself up. I could feel goosebumps slowly forming on my arms as the coolness began to seep into the tiny bathroom. I quickly dried my body and hair, once I stepped out of the bathtub and dressed up, I chucked the towel in the laundry bin and reached for my clothes. I opened the bathroom door, feeling in a much better mood than before. Maybe thats all I needed, some time to clear my head and a nice hot shower.

Cindy was lieing on her bed, reading one of those trashy gossip magazines we're so addicted too with a smile on her face. I noticed she had changed into a dark purple dress, and did her hair and make-up to perfection, like she was probley planning on doing to me.
She looked up at me, and grinned, pointing to the bathroom again.
"What?" I asked her curiously, a smirk spreading across my lips.
"Your clothes," She said in a matter a fact tone. I shrugged my shoulders.
"Im bringing them home." I replied. She rolled her deep brown eyes.
"Bullshit. Put them into the laundry, Ma will wash them." she replied, her grin growing. I laughed and walked back into the bathroom, throwing the clothes into the laundry bin. I couldnt fight with Cindy, in the end she would just end up winning anyways.
I walked back into Cindy's room and sat at the foot of her bed.
"Thanks." I said quietly. She looked at me and smiled.
"Thats what sisters are for right?" She asked. I nodded as she threw the magazine aside and stood up.
I followed.
"Sisters for life right?" She said with a smile. I smiled and stood next to her. "Always." I replied with a warm smile as she pointed to her computer chair next to her vanity filled with makeup and hair products. I was right, good old cindy, fixing her best friend to look better than usual.
"Sit, I want to fix you up." She said with a smile. I sucked in a deep breath and sighed.
"Holl, You know me, i never stop until a job is done. Im no Billy, i dont do half ass jobs." She replied in a giggly tone, refering to her big brother, Billy Tessio.
I chuckled and ploped down in the computer chair as she had told me.
~*~*~*~~*~*~*~*~*~ In about 20 minutes she had my hair blow dryed, brushed, and straightened. She also had my makeup done perfectly.
Cindy's right, she never does a half ass job.
"There, your done to perfection!" She said happily as we both looked into the vanity mirror. I smiled and stood up,
giving her a tight sisterly hug.
"I look awesome, thanks." I replied with a huge smile.
She chuckled and pulled away, grabbed my arm and leading me out of the room.
"You have to look nice if we're going out.." She began. I nodded firmly.
"Where are we going?" I asked, letting her tug me down the hallway and towards the stairs.
"Out." Was her reply. I chuckled and nodded as we walked down the wooden stairs.

She dragged me across the house, were we aventally made it into the porch. We pulled on our hightops that conventintly matched our dresses perfectly. I got mine on first and watched Cindy as she tucked the laces inside her shoes before pulling them on. "Nice dress choice." I said quietly as she stood up, examining both our dresses and shoes. She smiled widely.
"What Can I say, I'm made to be a designer." She joked. We both laughed and made it out of the house and into Cindy's car. Now the big question is,
Where the hell are we going?
~~*~*~*~*~*~*

Good Old Cindy Tessio would leak a detail to where we were off too. So, Like a good friend, I waited patiently as we drove into a tiny lane halfway across town.
"Are ya ready for a good night?" Cindy asked with a smile as she parked in front of a tiny house and jumped out of the pink convertable. I followed quickly and nodded.
"Hell yes." I replied taking a good look around. I was never in this place, sure Cindy and I passed it a few times, but I didnt know were the hell we were. "Were are we?" I asked quietly as she led me behind the house. I noticed that she rolled her eyes and chuckled quietly. I frowned but continued to follow.
"You know I go out with Charlie Hogan right?" She laughed. I stopped dead in my tracks.
"What!? Why didnt you tell me!?" I questioned pulling her back. She laughed in my face and held her sides.
"It only happened today, thats why I was trying to call you.. But no, that bitch had you cleanin' like a slave." She replied, her laughter died down. It was my turn to laugh.
"Your dating that pussy!?" I replied in a joking voice, followed by laughter. I seriously wasnt joking though, Charlie hogan was the biggest pussy i've ever met, and one of the only cobras i've ever met.
You would think it's werid since Cindy's older brother belongs to that particular gang and they are always hanging around. But I only met Vince Desjardins,
And Charlie hogan, they're the only ones who really come over late at night to hang out. Oh Yeah, And of course Billy, Duhh..
But I have herd of the other guys in the gang, I just havent had alot of time in my life to meet them. The only reason I met Charlie, and Vince because Cindy and I bumped into them on the street acouple nights ago, one night when they were walking home from Cindy's. So.. Tonight I was meeting the cobras.. Great.
"My boyfriend Is not a pussy!" Cindy fought back obviously defending her boyfriend. She was laughing, so it made it look like she was joking which didnt help her situation much.
I continued to laugh.
"Charlie Fuckin' Hogan? Hell yes he's a pussy!" i replied.
"How do you know! You dont even know him!" She argued. I rolled my eyes.
"I'm Holly Williams, I know people.." I replied. She rolled her eyes now.
"Yeah, Whatever." She muttered under her breath, obviously sick of our little arguement.
"Come on." She pulled me towards a lit up garage in the back of the house.
"Their in the garage." She added. I nodded and let her drag me into the garage, were a large group of boys sat. I scanned the large room were silence over took. I swallowed hard as my gaze met a blonde who was staring intently at me.
He was.. Beautiful.
