Chapter 2 :What the fudge

CHAPTER TWO: WHAT THE FUDGE

Jane POV 

The next morning I was awakened by my best friend Jennifer Blake . When  I looked at my best friend with all smiles on her face , she had her curly red hair in a bun , she was wearing Demin. Everything she had on was Demin . That was when I realized she was up to something .  " what's wrong", I asked her.

 "we are going to the mall.", she said enthusiastically.

 From the minute I heard she say the word mall I was starting to  feel sick. It's  just that I hate going to the mall .

So I got up and went to the bathroom to get ready . To go with her , but it's not like she will take no for an answer .

When I was finished I went down stairs and saw Marcel and Coby in the living room. "what are you guys doing here so early "I asked them both. marcel said, " Jenny called and said to come over we are going to have fun today".

I know what he means by that whenever Jennifer say fun she means going shopping and cause trouble . The five of us got in Marcel car which had Marcel and Jennifer at the front and Cody my brother and I at the back. He didn't want to come but mom insisted that he come . We all went to the closest mall.

When we went inside of the mall it was after five minutes that we noticed that we had lost Jennifer . Normally you would go and look for a lost friend but we were all very glad because we knew she wondered off to one of those shoe boutique . The four of us went to the food court and bought Mac Donald's  and ate ; it was not long after we notice Jennifer holding ten shopping bags filled with shoes, clothes and lingerie.

When she arrived next to us , she sat down next to me and Jack and she let out a sigh . It was not long after that Jack bought up a suggestion that we could go watch a movie. I didn't want to go watch a movie that Jack would pick he always picks all the scary ones whenever we go to a movie theatre he always does that.

When we arrived at the movie theatre that was in the mall. I was so terrified , I just can't stand scary movies at all .I tried to say calm but all of my friends were laughing at how I was scared. It was when Jack asked me for money to buy tickets for the movie and snacks. When he left I was praying for him to not pick a scary movie . When he came back , and gave me the change and the ticket when I looked at what movie he choose and it was the conjuring . The moment I saw that I was terrified. It gave me chills and made the hairs on my hand rise . When we entered the movie theatre we all had been seated in a row . I was seated next to a young man who kind of near my age. I couldn't figure his face out because of the theatre was very dark.

As soon as the movie had started I was afraid of what may happen to me and also to the man that was seated next to me . That is because whenever I am watching a scary movie next to anyone I would grab their arms or any body part that is close to me.

The beginning of the movie was kind of ok but as soon as it got to the terrifying part , I grab the arm of my seat . The next thing I know is that I had grab the man next to me arm as soon as I realized what I had done . I whispered to him a sorry , he whispered back it's ok .It was something in his voice that sound familiar but I couldn't put my finger on it . The movie was getting scarier and at that moment I grabbed the man hand again .

It was at the end of the movie that I got to cool my nerves . When we exited the theatre I could hear my brother and my friends giggling behind me . It was when I suggested that we go to the food court .When we got to the food court I bought a cheese pizza to help my nerves ease . It was when I turned towards my table to my friends that I saw him with them laughing and talking I was at shock because I didn't know what was happening . It was when I realized it was the guy from yesterday. At that moment I was angry again by just looking at him.

Scott POV

BEEPBEEP

I heard the ringing of my phone , when I answered it . The caller on the other end was my best friend Colt Evans .I  had asked why he had wakened me up, he said we are going to go out today . I didn't want to but I needed it because of what had happened yesterday . At an instant I got up and went to the bathroom to get ready .When I felt my face it was still hurting from the kick yesterday. As I think back of what happened yesterday .

Flashback

It was around eight in the morning when my dad had called me to the office we had just moved from Canada to New York . We were supposed to move to our grandparents house today but I couldn't because dad had called saying it is important .so I decided to go to his office first and then go to the house . I told mom what happened and she said, "that she would move everything but I must come right after I was finished to help her" .

I was worried why he had called me this early in the morning and for what . I began to get ready to go to the garage to pull out the car , but when I put the key in the ignition and turned it. It wouldn't start I tried for over seven times and I gave up. At that moment I decided to go take the bus at the bus stop . I was lucky that the bus stop was not far from the hotel.

When I got in the bus to go to my father company to find out why he called me . When I arrived at the company and went in the elevator to go to his office . When I entered his office he told me to take a seat . I kind of know what he was going to tell me but I prayed that it wasn't that .

But all he said was that I was of age to take over the companies and he was placing me at the company in Los Angeles . I  tried to get away from it by telling him if I can finish high school first . He just told me that he would considered it only if don't get in trouble . At which he know would be hard . I gave it a taught and I realized whether I behave good or not I would still have to take care of the company whether I liked it or not .

As I left that company I was so angry that I pulled out a pack of cigarettes' and lit one as i waited for the bus . So I took a bus to go to my grand parents home that mom told  me to go . When I got off at the bus stop , I started walking on the sidewalk towards the house I was so angry at what happened earlier at the office . It is just that he doesn't listen to me and ask what my dreams are and what I want to do with life .

I was angry at my father that I didn't watched where I was going and I walked into girl . When she walked into me she had a hand on my chest bracing herself from falling in to my arms . When I looked down at her I noticed that she has a kind of hazel eyes she had curly Burnette hair she was so beautiful and she didn't even had make up on . I was so mesmerized by her that I was brought back to reality . It was then that all of the argument had started . The only thing surprised me was that she kicked me . I never taught that someone would do that they would always flirt with me or try to get in my pants because every girl that talked to me wants to sleep with me.

******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************

when I finished getting ready .There was a knocked on the door it was then that I realized it was colt at the door. We both went to his car and he started to dive ,after a few seconds I asked him " where we are going" . He said "we are going to the mall" . When we entered the mall Colt decided he wanted to buy some books so I went with him .

When we were leaving the bookstore I saw the same girl I saw yesterday . When I looked at her I could see how she didn't pay any attention to what her friends were telling her. She was looking down at her fingers as she was playing with them. After they were walking I followed her to food court where she bought her food to eat . It was when I noticed the boy that was sitting close to her was her brother he was trying to annoy her .After about thirty minutes I heard him say that they would be watching the conjuring .

That was when I told Colt we were going to watch a movie and he immediately accept it . When we got in theatre I was seated right next to her . It was easy and free because Colt and I didn't have to pay because the mall owner is one of my cousins . So when she had sat down in her seat right at the corner of me I could see she was tense .

When the movie had reach the scary part she  grabbed on the arm of her seat after a couple of seconds she gabbed my arm . I could see she didn't realized, but when she did she said sorry . When the movie had ended I could hear she told one friend she was going to buy pizza .It was at that moment I recognized one of her friends . So when she went to order Colt and I went over to Cody to say hi and we were introduced to one another and we started to get along well .When she  came back with the pizza I noticed that she was shocked to see me . It was after I heard her say , "what the fudge" which is weird because yesterday she said the f word .

Jane pov

I was so shocked at what had happened because I nearly swore again . So I decided to go towards  the table . It was when Cody introduced us,

" Jane this is Scott and colt they were my friends from my previous school . And Scott and Clot this is Jane my best friend , but I would warn you don't upset her she is going to kill you". They all laugh at what Cody had said .When Cody stopped laughing he turned towards me and noticed I was not happy at what he said.

" Um jane are you angry at what I just said you know I was only joking right", he said being dramatic again.

I just let it slide because I know that he was trying to cool my nerves from the movie we had saw.

" oh I know you are joking", I slapped him behind his head while grabbing a slice of pizza.

After a couple minutes I heard Scott asked me , " Jane do you curse" at the very moment Marcel and Cody looked at each other and answered  at the same time," no ." 

When the two of them had said no, Jennifer started saying, " well she used to curse and then she stopped" . Scott and Colt look bewildered as if they don't know what was going on at that moment.

As she was going to explain what she said , Marcel and Cody kicked her telling her to stop and then she mouthed to me I am sorry.

After a minute Cody told me , "J I want to ask you a question about something" I asked him what! He could sense I was angry and he was right I was mad at Jennifer for talking about my past how could she. She didn't even know what happened at that time.

He said , "ok ok I won't make you angry but can you answer this question . I told him ok .Between me and Marcel who do you think is good looking . It was that question again . And out of nowhere I heard Jennifer giggle and told Cody you know if you and her weren't friends , she would already beat you black and blue everyone started to laugh . He pleaded for me to answer me , I just told him what I told him yesterday that would rather look at a pig than look at you. He was being dramatic again .

We were all laughing at what had happen . It was a while later that I heard Marcel say , " you know what J it has been a while since I have seen you laugh and enjoy yourself ."

 I just said, "really" .

They all said," yes ". 

Then my brother said I am glad you are starting to heal of what happen two years ago. I didn't want my friends to know what I went through so I kicked him on his knee under the table to notify him to shut up and he looked at me trying to ask why I did that . He then realized that he should shut up because he was starting to exposed everything .

It was after a few minutes when Cody said , "J did you know Scott is living in our neighborhood" . 

 I didn't know what he was talking about so I asked ,"which part of the neighborhood". 

he said," both of you are neighbors" I was shocked .

 I told him , "no because marcel and I are neighbors".

He then told me the Sullivan's home on the right I said oh . I was just irrigated at that because I taught that I was never going to see him today and never see him again . But now I have to see him everyday .

And once we have new neighbors my mom would want my brother and I to go over and say hi and welcomed them. I was so angry not only did I meet him today I will have to see him everyday of my life until I graduate because I am sure he will go to our school.

After a few moments I told my friends that I will be leaving , and they all say they will be leaving too . When we left the food court I saw someone familiar coming towards me. I then noticed that it was my father . When I looked at my brother and then back at the direction. He noticed what was happening.

He then told my three friends what was the situation about , all of my friends knew about my relationship with my father . My friends tried to help me get away from him but I told them I am brave now to handle him .

When he arrived he said , " Jane can I talk to you" , I angrily told him ,"no". 

I thought that I could do it but I just  started to get angry and started shouting, " you had time to talk about everything 13 years ago , but no you only wanted to take everything from mom and her family . You know that mom had a rich father who would do anything for her but you didn't realize that he will stop talking to her . So you went and get mom pregnant twice because you taught once we are heirs to the Olsen's and we would receive shares too . You would always demand for things she could give so you used her and us . So dad all I can say is that you never loved us you just used us as properties and as objects. So I would like it if you would say far away from me and my brother.

And out of nowhere I heard my brother say , "would you please say away from her you are the reason she is like this . She always say that not everyone is like you and two years ago she realize that everyone is like you".

Everyone started to walk towards the exit . I could feel that my heart felt a lot lighter . Then Jennifer asked , " Jane remember when we met in grade nine when you saved me from a bully" . 

I answered with a," yes". I then curiously asked her ,"why" .

She said nervously ," then do you remember that you would always swear and laugh and you would always be the live of the party, and you would wear makeup and dress in the coolest clothes" . 

I kind of knew what she was talking about so I decided not to start an argument and simply say ," why are you telling me this ". 

She said fidgeting with her fingers, " I think you are beginning to be the same person I met when I was in grade nine ."

Well I didn't know she was going to say that I thought to myself

I then heard Marcel say ,"well that is weird because whether you change from what you are before to what you are now you would always beat us if we make you angry" . Everyone started to laugh at what Marcel said.

******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************

when we arrived home I told mom everything that had happen she then comforted me and told me that everything will be ok . We then ordered take out from a Chinese restaurant because mom said that she is too tired to cook . After we finished lunch mom asked me if I can baked some cookies for the new neighbors. So I asked her how many persons live there she told me about twelve of them . All I could say is wow that is one big family so I decided to bake the cookies .

While baking the cookies a taught came to my to my mind that I should put some wasabi inside of the cookies that are for Scott . I made a variety of cookies which include oat meal cookies ,chocolate chip cookies , cherry drop cookies and cinnamon cookies . There were about ten dozens of cookies that were made .

When I had finished everything which had include decorating and placing them in tiny bags for each person in the house hold . And I made sure the one that Scott had was made beautifully . When I finished with all of the preparation with the cookies I decided to go and take a shower because of all the flour that was on me .

When I got out of the shower I quickly pulled on some black sweat pants and an pink sweat shirt and then I quickly pulled my long curly brunette hair in a bun . When I was finished getting ready I quickly ran downstairs to find my mom and brother waiting on me . The two of them grabbed their coat while I grabbed the cookies that was on the island in the kitchen. The three of us quickly walked over to the Sullivan's house .

The Sullivan's house not only looked big but it looked more like a mansion itself . When we walked up to the door mom knocked on the door while my brother and I just stayed behind her admiring and talking about the house . Plus we were comparing it to our uncles houses too. 

We were interrupted by the sound of the door bell , after a couple of seconds a lady came to open the door . The lady looked like she was in her late thirties . She had very red hair it was in a high ponytail she was about 5'1 she wore some blue skinny jeans and a white t-shirt .

She then grabbed my mom in a big hug saying happily ,

" it's been like forever since I last saw you"

My brother and I looked at each other confused at what was going on at the moment . When they had broken away from their hug my mom introduced us saying ,

" Karen these are my kids Jane and Jack . Kids this is Karen Sullivan we went to the same high school together ."

We told her hi there was silence for a couple of seconds when my mom said ,

" Jane made you some cookies for the family"

Karen replied " wow it looked like you already know who to give what and who not give what"

We giggled she then said let me call the kids down she then shouted ,

"kids  we have guests come down quickly."

They all came down at one time. Then she said ,

" kids this is miss Olsen , and her kids jane and jack there are our neighbors . Guys these are my kids Sam , Jacob , Austin , Caleb ,Nick , Nichols's , Zion , Stephen , Scott and my youngest Luke"

 When she had finished calling their names I felt someone grabbed my leg when I looked down it was Luke . I then took a bag of cookie out of the basket and handed the basket to my brother and I knelt down to reach at his height I asked ,

" hey Luke how old are you"

he said , " I am five" showing me his fingers.

I said , " well Luke do you like cookies"

he said , " yes".

"Do you have chocolate chip I love chocolate chip .", he asked stooping up to look in my hand. 

I then told him , " well you are in luck because I have got you some chocolate chip cookies hope you like it I made it."

I gave him the cookies and then he went going towards Scott telling him something. 

" I wished my brother was so adorable and cute when he was five", I said wiping a fake tear off my eyes.

" you know I can hear you right", jack said getting a bit irritated.

I just ignored him. Knowing that would anger him.

" And for your information I was cute and adorable when I was five", he said and I noticed he was getting a bit angry. 

" My dear loving brother i could tell you a hundred things but cute and adorable wasn't any of them", I said sarcastically.

At that point I knew he was full out angry. Because he turned to mom and asked her angrily," mom wasn't i cute when i was five". he waited for mom to answer but she was contemplating what to say.

" mom" , he shouted more angrily.

" well sweetie ... um ... when you were five you were no where to cute . You were kind of a troublemaker.", mom said stammering a bit trying not to hurt his feelings . But I think he already knew that.

" no i wasn't", he said in a high pitched sound.

" oh really i bet a frothy bucks i could tell you three things you did at five that got you in trouble.", i said challenging him.

"ok deal" he said ready to hear what i have to say.

" ok. when you were five and mom would take you at the playground you would always get into fights with the other kids ." i was cut when he said

" they started it first"

"still talking", i said waving both of the forty bucks in his face.

He motioned me to continue.

"ok. when we used to live in Liverpool i had a friend who would come over and you told her that you wanted to see her underwear . only god in heaven knows where you learn that" i said looking at him for an answer.

He started to say," remember cousin Leo ".

i shook my head.

" well when he stayed with us for the week i went in his room and saw a book on his bed with girls in bikins and lingere.  as  was about to go to another page he came out the bathroom taking on the phone with someone saying ,if  you show me your underwear I will show you mine." he said seductively too . i mean he didn't had to do that.

I wanted to laugh but i stopped myself because i had to tell the last one. he even noticed that.

"jane don't laugh or else the bet is off", he said knowing he was losing.

"ok but tell one thing why did yo tell my friend that", i asked wanting to know what he thought it meant.

"well i thought it meant becoming friends. and you knew i was friends with all your friends except her don't blame me i was only five"

i just nod my head and continue with the last one ,

" Remember when we were spending a week of summer with our grand aunt Olga and when she took us into town you kissed that girl who have never met before." looking at him and pushing the money in my pocket.

" ok fine i wasn't a cute , innocent and adorable when i was five . you win . But let me tell you something it was a love at first sight kiss. he said  and everyone started to laugh.

"are your kids always like this " i heard Karen asking my mom . 

"oh no this is nothing. You should when they are fighting for food ", mom said sarcastically.

when i looked over at Scott's direction i saw that he was coming towards me.so  I then took the cookies that contain the wasabi and gave it to him and then I distributed the rest of the cookies to his brothers and gave the remaining to his mom . Before he could take a bite I told mom I was coming back I rushed through the door as quickly as possible and giggling .
