It's Not the End

Chap. 2

We walk back the same way back that I got to the cliff with and headed to my house.

*25 minutes later*

I don't have much but at least I have a bed and or a couch to sleep on. "You can have the Bed, the bathroom is third door on the left and this is the kitchen." I tell him walking into the kitchen. I stop in my track, "I never asked you for your name and I never told you mine." I laugh awkwardly.

He smiles, "I'm William, 17, an orphan." He holds out his left hand. "Well William, it's nice to meet you, I'm Amari I'm 21. And my parents died 5 years ago." I shake his hand telling him a little bit more about myself.

"Oh wow I'm sorry. I am lucky to have never met my Parents, they apparently didn't want me so I don't mind." Why would someone not want their child?

"I have an idea but I don't know if you'd want that..." I scratch the back of my head. He c***s his head to the side, "what?" He looks so confused I chuckle. "I could adopt you, like as my brother..."

I look at the floor. "But we'll think about that later okay? I'm gonna go make dinner and then I'll go wash up. You should wash up, I'll wash your clothes and tomorrow after school we'll go shopping okay?" He still looks shocked but he nods

I turn around to go to the kitchen when he hugs me, to be honest I'm not the biggest fan of hugs but I let him hug me. He probably needs it. I pat his arm. "Hey big guy you okay?"

He nods into the crock of my neck. "Yeah I'm just glad that you stopped me. I would have never had a sister...thank you Amari." I chuckle smiling, "don't thank me just yet Will, this will be hell. We're gonna have to go shopping for things and a new bed and so on, I have another bedroom but it's full of boxes so we're gonna have to unpack those too. Most of them are old things from my parents and clothes."

This house has to be freaking clean if I want to adopt a seventeen year old, goodness this is gonna be hard. "But I'm gonna make dinner wich means you have to let me go and you have to shower my friend. There is some clothes that should be your size, they're my ex boyfriends clothes, maybe they will do? Maybe get them a bit dirty if you want. Oh and do you have any allergies"

He shakes his head again, "I'll go wash up, put your ex's clothes on and then I'll come down for dinner s***h a night snack." He says laughing and walking away.

Aish this kid

I shake my head and walk into the kitchen to start dinner. I whistle the Melodie of Teeth while cooking. I'm making Pasta because it's like the easiest and fastest thing to make, haha yes, I'm lazy. Sue me b***h.

I set the table and put the Pot of pasta on the table, sitting down I wait for William to come downstairs.

"William! Food's done, hurry your ass up b***h!" Smiling when I hear him coming into the dining room. "Hi, Digg in. Have as much as you want." He just smiles and nods.

"Thank you Amari, I appreciate you taking me in and saving me from myself, oh and for the good food of course." He says laughing his ass off.

I just shake my head.

I feel my phone vibrate in my back pocket, taking it out I see an Unknown number calling me "I'll be right back I have a call to take." I say getting up.

Amari: Hello?

Unknown: Hello Mari, how are you my little sugarcup?

Amari: What doe hell do you want Jackson?

Jackson: I don't think that's how you talk to your boyfriend Amari Lee, you should be nice to me. And I just wanted to know how your doing with your new Boy toy?

Amari: You have to stop this Jackson, you can't keep medaling with my life, you need to stop stalking me as well. Enough is enough Jack, it's getting scary, so I ask you yet again. Please leave me alone...I beg of you to leave me and my brother alone.

I hang up the phone and walk back into the dining room. "Okay, tell me what that was about Amari, and tell me why the hell your crying." He says looking at me with a worried expression. I put my hands to my cheeks and truth be told, they were wet.

"f**k, uhm I'm sorry Will it's nothing, just weird caller." I say forcing a smile. He doesn't look convinced but let's it go. "Let's eat hm?" I put some pasta on my plate.

While eating we keep our Smalltalk going, nothing interesting just literally random things. It's like we've known each other for years, but I just met him today. Shaking my head I go back to eating and telling him about how dogs hate my presence, but cat's love my presence, like I said, Random.

"I'll wash up!" "No I will wash up, you cooked!" I roll my eyes, "Fine you wash up I'm gonna go lay down." I say getting up and go to my bed for now, my couch. I walk into the living room and sit down on my couch.

I'm thinking about the adoption thing when he walks into the living room, "Hey Amari, I'm done with the dishes. What are we gonna do now?" I snap out of my thoughts.

I study him with my eyes, "come sit, we have stuff to talk about." I say smiling up at him from my sitting position. He walks up to me and sits down on the couch beside me.

"Okay what do we need to talk about?" I look over at him, "How long until you're 18? Because like I said, I could adopt you but I would need your help a lot around here. This house looks like hell itself threw up so if we want your social worker to let you stay with me I need your help. And about tomorrow, well later but you know what I mean." We both chuckle.

"I am going to come to your school and have a talk with that boy. Ion even remember his name, doesn't matter anyway." I lay my head back against the couch.

We should go to sleep...

"We should probably go to sleep, if you need PJ's there are like I said my ex's clothes if not you can sleep bare." I say laughing at my last comment. He gets up shaking his head. "Bro your stupid, I'll steal some of his clothes."

He bends over to hug me. "Night Sista, I hope you're okay sleeping on the couch, you could technically sleep on the bed with me, I mean we won't do anything." I shudder. "Yeah ew, not happening. Anyways, night lil Bro, sweet dreams and if you should have any problems you can just wake me Kay?"

He nods, turns and walks to my bedroom. I unfold the couch to a bed and get out the blanket and pillow. "Let's just hope my back doesn't kill me. The hell am I thinking about adopting a teenager. Bruh I'm still a teenager." I smack my forehead, "young, dumb and stupid (NMIXX anyone?) my god, how dumb can I get? But hey at least I'm not all too lonely in the house anymore.

Chill out Amari it's gonna be okay.

I set my alarm and put it on the Living room table. Laying down on the couch I look up at my sealing thinking about what to do with my life now that I have a 17 year old boy under my roof.

Shit! I basically kidnapped him! His parents?! Damnit he doesn't have his school stuff either
