《Stranded》pt. 5

I didn't get much sleep. I kept having a dream that someone was watching me. Plus with all the shit that happened in the last bit of time I'm still pissed off. So when I woke up to the sound of shouting from the downstairs I shot up. "I didn't do it!" I panic, my brain thinking I was going to get yelled at for not passing a class or smoking in the house again. Looking around the room I sigh. "Right, not my house." Carefully I swing my legs over the edge of the bed and grab my phone out from under my pillow. Mom had text me saying good morning at around 6:00am. I looked at the time. 7:30am. Sending her a goodmorning text back I put my phone down. The yelling was still going on. Quietly I go to the door and place my ear to it. Since I still couldn't make it out I go to my shoe bag and put on my slipper and quietly open the door.
Tip toeing I crouch at the top of the stairs. "What were you thinking bringing her here?!" A male voice shouts. "They were just dumped on the side of the road I couldn't just leave em there!" Lester shouts back. "You don't think do you?!" I tip toe down the stairs and peak around. Lester was standing infront of another, taller, man. "She just needs a place to stay until she can get back home. I'm got work. If I could I'd bring her with me." Lester gets quieter and I knock on the wall. "Hey I'm sorry to interrupt. But i-." The other man turned around and I stopped for a second. He was around 6'1'', with ash blonde (a very light brown) hair, peircing blue eyes, and he wore a mechanics uniform.
Seeing me his face changed from pissed off to shocked for a split second. "I uh, I'm really sorry if I'm causing any problems. I can grab my stuff and get a lift somewhere." I finish what I was saying as I fidget with my shirt. Lester looks at me then at the man. The man and I kind of just stare are eachother for a second before he looks at Lester and sighs. "It's fine, just would have appreciated if Lester here asked first." Looking back over at me he smiles softly. "It'd be rude for me to just throw you out with no where to go. You stay as long as you want. No rush at all." He steps closer to me and I feel my face heat up. He holds his hand out for me to shake. "Nice to meet ya, I haven't gotten ya name yet." Coming back to what was happening I shake my head and gently take the hand. "Oh uh, it's uh, it's (y/n)." I stammer out and see an amused grin grow on his face. "Bo. Come on in, we were just having breakfast. Hope ya like bacon." I nod at Bo and look over to Lester. He nervously shrugs before grabbing an extra chair for me.

As I sat down I looked around. There was an old oven/stove, and the kitchen just looked older like 70s. "I could help if you'd like." I offer as Bo flips some eggs in a skillet. "No you're our guest, you just sit there. Tell us about where your from." Bo says as Lester hands me a a cup of coffee. "Thank you, very sweet of you." I smile softly at Lester and see the same blush from yesterday. "I didn't know how you'd like it so I made it how I do." Lester says sitting across from me. I take a sip and let out a sigh of satisfaction. "Perfectly sweet, I've never been able to drink just black coffee. Too bitter." Bo laughs and puts a plate infront of me. "Just like my baby brother here. So (y/n) where ya from?" He asks sitting next to me.
I look at the eggs and bacon on the plate and poke at it with my fork. "Eh it's only a bit bigger than here. About 11 hours away." Lester looked at me wide eyed as I took a bite of food after talking. "11 hours? That's a hell of a ways away from home." Bo says drinking his coffee. "Yeah, but I just kinda got dragged out here so I'm just gonna use my vacay time to hang out in some places and get home." I explain. The food was OK. Not enough seasoning on the eggs but ok. "So wait. Lester's your baby brother?" They both nod. "Heh yeah." Lester chuckles nervously. "That's cool, I still live with my family too." I smile at Lester and watch as he checks the time. "Oh crap I gotta go, wanna get started before rot time." Lester blurts before gulping down the rest of his coffee and giving a glance to Bo. "We'll be fine, don't you worry." Bo tells his brother. "See ya later Lest." I wave as he runs out the door.

"You don't have to have me stay you know." I tell Bo to break the silence. "Now what give you an idea like that?" He asks trying to play it off and I look him in the eyes. "Your voice carries. I didnt want to upset Lester. He seems like a very nice guy." I state plainly before taking a sip of my coffee. "He likes ya, and I wouldn't mind you staying. There's really just not a lot for people to do here." Bo replies with a slight smile. "I'll only stay if it's no problem for everyone in the house. I don't stay anywhere I'm not welcome long." I explain getting up from the table. "It's no problem (y/n)." I smile at Bo and feel a light blush on my face. He definitely had something going on in his head but he's cute so I'll worry bout it later. "Thanks, hey is there a store here? I was hopping to grab some snacks." "Hey I gotta go there later today anyway. How about you write down a list of everything you need and I'll get it for ya." Bo says getting up out of his chair. "I don't want to put you out more than I already am." Bo stops me as he puts on his hat. "It's no problem at all, and I'll tell you what when you get bored of being in here." He grabs a pen and motions for me. "Lemme see your arm." I hold it out and he writes down two phone numbers. "This one's my personal number, this one's the stations. If I don't pick up one call the other." He winks at me and I feel my heart skip a beat. "Will do, Oh! I should give you my number." I motion for him to hand me the pen. He rolls up his sleeve and holds out his arm. Carefully I write it down and smile when I'm done as I put a small heart next to it. "Call me when you get to the store." I hand him some money I had kept in my bra and smile. "Will do." Bo smirks before leaving the kitchen.
