《Brightside》The Fallout

Advertisement

I woke up to a empty bed. With my eyes still close I rolled around trying to find my phone but I fell off of the bed. I really have the worst morning luck.

I huffed and got up checking the time on my phone. It's currently 12:00 pm and I'm shook that I even slept this long. I swear I'm not touching a drop of henny for a long, long, long time.

I straightened up the bed and made my way to my own room for a nice long shower. I'm telling you one of the best remedies after a long night of partying is a long cold shower and also food.

We'll get to the food right after my shower. Can't go downstairs with hot breathe and looking like a mess, now can I. I connected my phone to the speakers in my room and shuffled my shower playlist.

Cool enough by TeaMarr started playing while I stripped out of my clothes. I turned on the cold water and stepped under it. I let out a sigh of relief as the water ran down my skin.

I did my routine and just stayed under the shower lost in thought. It wasn't just one thought, it was a combination of a lot of thoughts. I broke from my thoughts and stepped out of the shower, dried my skin and wrapped myself in my robe.

After I did all that I brushed my teeth and went to my room to put some comfortable clothes on. I changed into a sports bra and shorts , I left my hair wild and free then left my room.

The first thing I noticed when I left my room is how quiet upstairs was. Normally I would hear Levi in her room, especially when Rowan is around If you know ,you know.

I walked downstairs where I heard faint laughing. I followed the sound to the kitchen and there was Arlo, Levi, Rowan and the lady from last night all around the table eating. They looked like they were having a good time reminiscing.

I didn't know whether I should stay or leave because I didn't want to interrupt what they got going on so I turned around and was about to head up the stairs when my name was called.

"Aye Storm where you going girl?" Levi asked. I turned back around and thought of excuse really quick. I cleared my throat and answered,

"Hey, I was just going to get my phone."

"That can wait come have breakfast with us." Levi smiled.

I really didn't want to because I felt like I was going to be left out. It's obvious that they have some kind of bond so me going in there while they talk about their past is going to be awkward.

I shrugged it off, put on a smile and walked in. Levi was sitting next to Rowan, the lady from last night was sitting next to Arlo. The only seat available was next on the left of Levi right across from Arlo and the lady.

I grabbed a plate and started to stack food on my plate. I got some bacon, scramble eggs, french toast and a cinnamon rolls, I then got a glass of apple juice and sat next to Levi.

"Um good morning." I said.

"Hey sleepy head." Arlo smiled.

"Wassup Storm?" Rowan said.

"All good, but um no disrespect but who's the female?" I asked eyeing her.

"She's a childhood friend of ours and she's also a representative of a client that wants to hold a party at the club." Arlo replied.

I looked at the lady for a while longer and then started eating my food.

"Do you think you should be eating all that food?" The girl asked?

"Ma'am firstly I don't even know your name, secondly don't ask me dumb shit and lastly If I thought different would I be eating it?"

She didn't hesitate to answer back,

"I mean I'm just looking out for a fellow female, wouldn't want you to look more well you know what I mean." She smirked.

"Y'all better get your friend together before I do." I said continuing to eat my food. See from the minute I saw her ass here I knew It was going to be on some bs.

"Okay let's all calm down." Arlo said trying to be the voice of peace.

"I was just saying." The female laughed.

'Lord if I punch this trick in her throat just know she made me do it.' I thought in my head.

"So Storm, are you a stud or what?" She asked.

'Is this female going to learn not to talk to me?' I asked myself.

"Is it your business?" I rolled my eyes.

"I was just curious, last night you was dressed as a fem and now a stud so." She said.

"It's called mind your fucking business." I sarcastically smiled.

"Well that was rude." She said rolling her eyes.

"Okay and?" I replied.

"You should respect your elders." She said in a matter of fact voice.

"Respect is earned not given and you ain't earn shit but thank you for reiterating that your a old hag." I smiled.

She looked shook, I didn't want to add fuel to the fire but I just busted out laughing.

"That's kind of rude don't you think?" Levi asked.

"Please enlighten me." I turned all my energy on her.

"She was just asking a question, you didn't have to go off." She replied, then continued

"Sian I'm sorry for her outburst."

This girl done gone crazy. The female disrespected me first and now asking me stupid shit, and she taking her side and then you apologize on my behalf.

"Really Levi," I started laughing and then continued,

"You must not have been round this table when she was talking shit."

"I get that she's your friend from way back, but for you to overlook the shit she says is actually sad."

"But it's the same thing you do at school so I can't expect anything different from you right?" I asked getting up going to my room.

I turned back for a quick second to say,

"And don't ever apologize on my behalf, especially to a bitch that done disrespected me."

I walked up to my room and locked the door. I fell face first on my bed and then started to think. Okay Levi is a good person right but sometimes she just doesn't see when people are sneak dissing me even though she's right there.

The fact that se apologized on my behalf is crazy to me. She didn't even press the female to apologize to me for the way she disrespected me.

Also everybody heard what was being said but not one of them could of intervened and told home girl to chill.

Mayne whatever, I stayed in my room for the rest of the day on my phone and ignoring people who came at my door and their calls and texts. I literally did that for the rest of the day before I went out to find Arlo.

I went to her room and she wasn't there, I went to her living room she wasn't there so I went to her office. The door was closed so I knocked on the door and waited for a answer.

I heard a faint come in and I did that. When I walked in I saw the female and and Arlo around her desk looking at papers. The female was sitting on Arlo's chair handle while Arlo sat in the chair.

"Looks like I'm interrupting something , sorry." I said turning around and walking out.

I heard Arlo calling after me but I didn't go back. She's busy with her work so I'm not gonna interrupt.

I went back in my room, locked my door and took another shower. After that I brushed my teeth and went back to my bed. I checked the time and It was 7 pm. Damn I been in this room long as hell.

I just shrugged it off and went back to sleep.

The last thought on my mind was me wishing for the weekend to finish.

After Storm left I sat there baffled. I'm highly confused at what she means. I always stick up for her all the time, so she just talking shit.

"Sian can you excuse us for a quick minute?" Arlo asked.

She said yes and left the kitchen. After Arlo was certain that Sian left she turned to me and began speaking.

"You know you was wrong for that right?" She asked me a little too calmly.

"What she said was wrong though." I replied blandly.

"Didn't you see Sian say grimy shit to Storm?"

I stayed quiet.

"You owe her a apology, she literally was standing up for herself and I'm gonna deal with Sian right after you." She got up and left.

"Did I mess up that bad?" I asked softly.

"You know I don't sugar coat things baby, so I'm gonna be straight with you",

"You did mess up cause you call Storm your sister but you stuck up for Sian even when she said some low down shit."

I felt my eyes tear up as Rowan sat me on her lap and hugged me.

"It'll be okay baby just apologize to her and for future reference have her back." She kissed my cheeks and lips.

She calmed me down and then followed me to Storm's room. I knocked on the door and waited for a answer but sadly I got nothing.

I kept knocking more but still she didn't answer. I hung my head low and walked away. I went to my room and laid on my back and started crying.

I felt Rowan's arms around me and I cried in her chest.

"She hates me." I sobbed.

"No she doesn't, she just needs time to cool down." She calmed me down and I fell asleep.
