Chasing waves

Good news

Listening to music on my way back home I can't help but smile as I am proud of those two punches I did. As I bring my head from looking out the car, I notice ride is silent, so I decide to stick my earphones in and ignored everyone. I didn't want to speak or answer any questions, I'm sure everyone heard what happened anyway. As the car pull up on the drive way, I notice there's 2 people stood outside our house looking about Hayden age I'm pretty sure it's my cousin mate and his girlfriend. With me being in no mood to talk, I walk straight pass them into my bedroom, still listening to music as I don't want to answer them when they ask why I strike another person 

"Hey, though you was coming later?" Hayden says to his mate Darren who made the journey, Hayden starts walking over to him giving him a man hug as he's happy his mates down

"We got here a little earlier then expected. What's up with your cousin? Though she was in school" Darren says to Hayden, a little confused as it's still early for school to be out

"That's fine, she got excluded for knocking someone out" Hayden says laughing walking inside the house with the two of them following, he wants to showing them around before the house starts to get packed again 

"Charlotte, can I come in?" I hear Hayden ask, I wanted to ignore him but he knows me too well and I get off my bed and stand at the bottom of my bed 

"Sure, you would of walked in anyway" I say, taking my jumper off as I only just notice I have blood on it, as I take my jumper off I see more then 2 legs and everyone else is at school 

"Lottie, I like to introduce my friend Darren and his girlfriend Lacey" Hayden says to me, I look at the boy then the girl, and then back To Hayden, waiting for him to explain a little more 

"They are staying the week with us" Hayden says walking towards me with a smile, it's the play nice smile, he always gives me

"Ok, I'm Charlotte. I hope you gave them a room on the other side, don't want to listen to them have s*x" I say with no emotion, I look at the girl and she has the most annoying smirk on her face 

"Don't worry, we'll be quiet" the girl Macey says or was it Lacey, I look at my cousin as if he serious 

"Ok macey" I say turning round looking for another jumper to put on. I only took one look at the girl to know she's one of those girls who are fake. Reminds me so much of Linda, I'm glad she's only here for the week or I wouldn't of coped. I'll be losing brain cells with talking to her

"It's Lacey" she says back to me but Hayden already pushing them out the room before I can respond with words as he knows me too well and I'll say something offending 

It's only 4:45pm and grandma should be calling us down for dinner soon, I couldn't be anymore happier as I'm starving and I love her cooking. Sitting on my bed I don't want to explain what happened in school today all over again, so I hope grandad caught her up but I make sure I take down my earphones with me 

"Dinner is ready Lottie" I hear grandad shout up to me. I quickly make my way downstairs with my earphones still in, I don't fancy talking or greeting the two new people instead I sit in between the cousins Hayden and Oliver hoping they shield me from my grandma. 

Uncle sits next to Hayden with grandparents at the end so that leaves the seats in front of me for Darren and Lacey making me roll my eyes. Everyone talks with each other but I keep humming to my music as I'm actually enjoying the songs they are playing. Trying to ignore everyone as I'm not in the mood I make sure everyone can hear me humming but grandma doesn't understand 

"How was everyone day" grandma asks looking at uncle first. I lowered my music so I could listen to make sure that no one drops me into it 

"Nothing really, watched Lottie throw one hell of a punch, who ever taught her that, well done" uncle says laughing but gets cut short when Hayden kicks him, grandma looks at him funny not sure how to understand what uncle just said but she looks at me for tell her 

"Charlotte, Care to explain" grandma says with a worried look, obviously grandad never mentioned it. I shake my head and play with my food. Everyone knows not to talk to me when I'm annoyed as it doesn't end well 

"I'll explain later hunny" grandad says to grandma giving me a weak smile, the dinner table goes silent, all you can hear is the forks hitting the plates, I'm still not hungry so I play with my food

"Charlotte, we have good news to share" uncles says looking at me with my cousins smiling, I look at my cousins then my uncle, I don't respond, I just wait for them to continue 

"We are moving down here, the house next to yours" uncles says, I jump up and give my uncle a hug, I always wanted them to be closer 

"Tell me your being serious" I respond with a smile on my face, I can't stop smiling 

"I'm dead serious, maybe you could teach me that right hook" uncle says jokingly but I kick him in the leg but grandma gave us the eye, and we stop talking, after dinner I head to the backyard for a little piece of quiet as the house is full with my cousin and there friends, I just need time to myself to think about everything.
