Chapter 2- A Flame that still burnsA Chapter by Hazel Stone Chapter 2-Hazel The rest of the week was the same yet no getting in
trouble role, but sure enough we would do something stupid together this
weekend since my dad was gone for those two days and my mother died giving
birth to me so I have no mother. He was out in Virginia doing business work; he
told me the house was mine for those days so, me and everyone are having a
double night sleepover. Sunday we were going shopping in New York City since I
have two hundred dollars in my wallet that hasn’t been touched in months. I got up early Saturday to clean up the
house.Glanceing at the clock every five minutes to see if it was 12:30.Sure
enough time went by. I squealed excitedly from the bathroom as the door bell
rang, I stood putting the chemicals in the cabinet under the sink along with my
gloves. I darted to the door and yanked it open. Chrissie had a bag slung over
her shoulder and was whereing a cute purple dress and her hair was pulled back
in a ponytail. I grabbed her arm and pulled her inside welcoming her with a hug. “It’s nice to see you to” she laughed as I
let go of her and stood back. “Hi” I said looking back at the clock on the
wall, surprised to see it was 12:30 on the dot. I turned looking at her
eyebrows raised, “You saved me from cleaning the bathroom” I said turning into
the living room and falling on the couch. “You are the first one” I said stretching,
well more like reaching for the Bose controller so I could blast the song live
while were young. “You’re not planning on blasting music are
you” Chrissie asked, I got up snatching the controller. “Oh yes I am” I answered
clicking play and the surround sound blasted One Direction music. My jaw
dropped at how amazing it felt to blast music, “The walls are vibrating”
Chrissie yelled over the music. I looked at her smiling “I know right” “You don’t know how long I’ve waited to do
this” I yelled as loud as I could since the music was so loud. “Um I can tell”
Chrissie said putting her bag down. Then I thought I heard the door bell ring
so I went to the door and opened it. Kahlan was standing there gaping and Anne
was behind her eyebrows raised. I opened the door wider and allowed them in. I
bent down pausing the song. “Could
you blast that any louder” Anne asked sarcastically putting her bag down. “Of
course”-“Hey how about we turn it down a little, or we’ll all go deaf” Anne interrupted.
Then there was a loud bang on the door I silently walked to it and opened it.
My neighbor was not really happy looking. “DO YOU MIND I’M TRYING TO SLEEP” he
roared I smiled a little. “Just having some fun” “YEAH, WELL HAVE FUN WITH MUSIC THAT DOESN’T
SHAKE THE WALLS” I
flinched as I slowly closed the door and I turned to my friends, “Yeah that
went well” I said walking in the living room. “Any suggestions for dinner?” I asked
changing the subject and specifically looking at Kahlan. Later on we ended up on the couch playing,
truth or dare. For us we don’t just say which one and all who cares we tell the
truth and we do the dares. I was waiting for Kahlan to think of a dare. She smiled
all of a sudden and looked at me. “I dare you to, Sing the ABCs as loud as you can outside” she turned glancing at the group of Adults gathered outside who were all talking. I sighed giving her the evil eye then I got up opening the door and stopped at the steps leading to my houses porch. “Bow too” Kahlan added, I turned looking at them like this is ridiculous. A sixteen year old singing her ABC’s. “A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,I,J,K,L,M,N,O,P,Q,R.S,T,U,V,W,X,Y and Z. Now I know my ABC’s next time won’t you sing with me” I sang as loud as I could then I finished with a bow. The adults looked at me like I was stupid, feeling embraced I turned walking back in the house. “My turn” I said evilly. “Kahlan, I dare you to get in the shower,
cloths on and yodel under freezing water for five minutes. If you do it dinner
is your choice” I said eyes narrowing, she thought considering it. She jumped
heading to the bathroom. Chrissie laughed heavily and we all followed her. No
doubt she would do it. She went in the shower and waited for a minute.
Chrissie took her phone getting ready to time it, “Go” she laughed, and I turned
the freezing cold water on. She started to yodel as loud as she could. Me and
Anne were dying of laughter. I fell to the floor crying. “Time” Chrissie yelled.
Kahlan stepped out of the shower soaking wet. “Oh good cause now, I’M GOING TO SHOVE YOUR
HEAD DOWN THE TOILET” she yelled at me. “Hey just think dinner is on you” I pointed out;
She still was made at me. Chrissie smiled turning to me “truth or dare?” she
asked me, “Yeah umm Dare” I said we never choose dare as you notice. “I dare
you too eat a bowl of something I make you” she said running in the kitchen. “Anne it’s your turn” Chrissie yelled, Anne
turned looking at Kahlan. “I dare you to speak Irish all day tomorrow while we
shop” Anne watched as Kahlan smiled and the Kahlan turned to me. “Pizza and then we go hit some ice cream” I
nodded going back in the living room and getting the phone out, but Chrissie
came back with a bowl setting it in front of me. The bowl was fill with melting
black and brown with yellow showing. I covered my mouth. “What is that?” I asked
disgusted by the bowl of crap. “One bit” she said as Anne and Kahlan crowded to
see it.I hesitantly took the spoon getting a spoonful. “Just close my eye” I hissed
as I squashed my eyes shut bringing the spoon to my mouth then ate it. I jumped up after I swallowed
it going to the bathroom and vomiting. I went back in the living room and sat
on the couch. “My turn” ………………………………………………………………………………………………….
At around nine we were all up, with music playing softly. I was singing/falling
asleep. “It would be cool if we tried out for the X-Factor” Kahlan said, I looked
up at her nodding. “We would make it” Anne said smiling, “And then our surprise
being meeting one direction” Chrissie added, I sighed imagining my reaction. “We have dreams” I said softly, it was silent
for a moment. “Potatoes!” Kahlan screeched as loud as she could, we burst into explosions
of laughter automatically. “Remember that time in Art when you yelled that,
everyone was laughing so hard” I remembered. “Yeah then I was sent to the
principles” Kahlan laughed. “Okay if we became famous one day what would we
call ourselves?” Chrissie asked, Anne sat up thinking “I’ve got it the……Girls”. “Wait, what about The Beats. So it’s like our
name gets you into the Beat” Kahlan said reaching for another oreo.I thought
about the songs I wrote they go along with the name perfectly. “Yeah you know what, I like that too” I agreed.
“One day our dreams will come true, the flame still burns” I added. © 2013 Hazel StoneAuthor's Note
