Anthony looked at Salamai and smiled. He just needed to pretend that everything was good, but he couldn’t lie to himself because nothing was good. He watched at the TV as she change channels and then looked back at her. Yes, all of this was awkward. He stood up and looked at her “I think I better go to your brother’s room” he said walking to the door “I can’t do this anymore” he said in a slow voice touching the door with his hand, leaning over it.

Salamai chewed on her nail when Anthony got up. Just as he touched the door knob, Salamai felt the urge to stop him. It was too bad she could not be all dramatic and just tel him to stop. Why couldn't she run up to him, passionatly kiss him, and everything turn out to be perfect. Oh right, this was reality. She didn't want him to leave, but what could she do. She was obviously hurting him.
"I... Um.."she began but just hushed herself.

Anthony looked at her and gave her a smile that meant ‘everything is going to be OK’ but he didn’t quite look like if everything was going to be OK. He didn’t want her to feel like him. He couldn’t make her do something that she might want to do. He moved his hand from the door to the doorknob and moved back slowly opening the door. He looked through outside to see if her parents were there, but fortunately they weren’t, they might be in their room already. He looked at her “Good night” he said closing the door behind him and walking through the house trying to find her brother’s room.

Salamai began to bite at her lower lips again which was beginning to bleed a bit. And then she worked up the courage to tell Anthony to stay with her. He had just walked out the door. She jogged to her bedroom door and saw that Anthony had just then began to walk down the hall. "Hey, Anthony, wait!"she said and touched his shoulder very lightly. Then the courage was gone. Ironic.
"My brothers room is the second door to the left upstairs."she said quicky.

Anthony walked through the house having no idea what he was doing. Hearing Salamai’s voice and feeling her touch his shoulder he looked at her. “What?” he asked turning around. After hearing that her brother’s room was on the second floor he blushed. It was like the third time she told him where the room was and still he couldn’t find it. He felt pathetic. “Oh um thanks” he said making his way to the stairs. He then walked through the rooms to see which one was her brother’s, but didn’t really care. He just got in the first room he saw with a bed. He lay in the bed and covered himself with some blankets. He stared at the ceiling asking himself what he was doing there, he should leave, but still couldn’t. But the question that kept wondering in his mind ‘Do you want to leave?’

Salamai stood by the staircase for a moment. "Good night."she said quietly, eventhough Anthony was already out of hearing range. She trudged back to her room slowly. She wasn't in a hurry to get back there. She could hear a Berries and Cream Starburst commercial blaring from her television and smiled weakly to herself. She left the door open, not caring if anyone came in or not. She ripped off her shirt, leaving her in nothing but a pair of black shorts and a pink bra.
Salamai turned off the t.v an listened to the loud thunder which for some odd reason was beginning to depress her. She turned on her stereo and turned the volume up drowning out the storm.

Anthony looked at the ceiling. He was thinking about absolutely nothing. He didn’t know what to think mostly about himself. He covered his face with the blanket breathing faster and faster. He wondered what Salamai was doing ‘probably watching TV’ he though, but was interrupted in his thought by the music that came from downstairs “Well I guess she isn’t watching TV” he said to himself. He couldn’t sleep and well the loud music didn’t help even though liked that music. He stood up and walked to the stairs, sitting in one of the steps he just leaned his chin on his knees.

Salamai tossed her blankets to the side and decided to smoke and get something to drink. She lit up a cigarette and walked out of her room still in her bra and shorts. In the process of walking down the dark hallway only lit by the sudden strike of lighting that seemed to light up the whole house for a split second, she fell flat on her face, her cigarette flying out of her hand and landing right beside the staircase. She mumbled a few swares and got up, jogging to the cigarette. She picked it up and then noticed Anthony.
"Want something to drink? A smoke maybe?"she asked before walking to the kitchen.

Anthony kept listening to the music. It was really cool. He was really concentrated in the music that didn't realized that Salamai was walking by. Noticing that she was there when she spoke, he stood up and walked behind her to the kitchen without saying a word. He didn't quite wanted to talk, but didn't wanted to be mean to her. It wasn't her fault. He looked at her and smiled "Um I might have a smoke" he said doubting if he wanted to, he wasn't used to smoke and didn't quite liked it. "Um..." he said not knowing what to say.

Salamai flipped the light switch and the kitchen became extremely bright, showing off her mother's work of scrubbing and making things spotless. "Well we have tea, soda, beer, and water."she said to him and rummaged through the fridge grabbing a beer. She didn't plan on drinking much so one beer wouldn't hurt. She grabbed a lighter and a pack of cigarettes off the top of the fridge. She handed them to Anthony and took a long drag on her cigarette, savoring her favorite cancer.
"Just help yourself to something to drink or food or something."she said to him with a slight smile. She sat down on the white marble counter and opened the can of beer.

Anthony looked at her wondering through the kitchen and grabbing things. He grabbed the pack of cigarettes lighting up one. He coughed a little after taking a smoke. He wasn’t used to it, but didn’t cared at all. He walked to the fridge grabbing a bottle of water. He wanted a beer, but he had had a lot of alcohol already that night. He sat next to her and smiled at her. He liked her house a lot, it was really nice. He just stared at her maybe it wasn’t good for him to say anything, so he just stared at her for a long moment. He looked at her beer taking a drink from it and then from his water.
He walked to the fridge taking a sandwich and then sat next to her again taking a bite from the sandwich “Want some?” he asked putting the sandwich in her lips.

Salamai took a small bite of Anthony's sandwich. "Good stuff."she smiled. She finished off her cigarette and lit another. She had never been able to kick the habit of chain smoking. She took a drag on the cigarette and jumped off the counter. She jogged to the large window on the other side of the kitchen. "It looks like this storm is gonna last for a quiet a bit."she said blankly. "You know what I am craving? Marshmallow cream."Salamai grinned. She looked trough the cabinet where all the junk food was to see she was out of marshmallow cream. "That really sucks."she mumbled and just grabbed a bag of the big marshmallows.
"Marshmallows are marshmallows."she shrugged and sat back down beside Anthony. She put out her half smoked cigarette and took her time opening the marshmallow bag. "Want one?"she asked Anthony with a grin before taking a bite of one.

Seeing that Salamai took a bite from the sandwich he had a rather satisfying look. He took another bite to the sandwich and smiled “Yeah it is really good” he said taking several bites. He looked at her look through the window “Yeah I guess. Maybe I would had been able to go to my house, but oh well,” he said lifting the bottle of water to drink some. He smiled at her when she mentioned marshmallows. He wasn’t a fan of them. “Um no thanks” he said looking at the bag of marshmallows and biting from his sandwich. He smiled at her feeling helpless about the situation with Chase. He didn’t want to bring the subject up either that would just mess up the moment and at least he would feel out of place. “So I guess your parents are good now” he said laughing a little. It was quite funny how they start and how they end up the discussions. A really good reconciliation he had to admit.

"Suit yourself. More for me."Salamai shrugged and took a bite of another marshmallow. "Well you are welcome here anytime. I mean it's not like my parents care anyways. They are never home."she grinned. She thumped a marshmallow at a kitchen chair and jumped up when it flew over the chair and more than half away across the long kitchen table. "SCORE!"she exclaimed and danced around for a minute. She smiled innocently and took a drink of her beer.
"Yeah it seems they are occupied."Salamai giggled.

Anthony smiled at Salamai. “Um yeah thanks. Your parents seem really cool,” he said doubting even himself for that answer. He had not met them yet, but he hasn’t heard too many things about them. He started laughing when she when he looked at her catching the marshmallow in the air with his mouth. He started clapping “Oh wow really good” he said looking at her drink from her beer. He ate the last piece of sandwich drinking some water after it and then cleaned the little mess that he did with the bread and all that stuff. “Do you have some chips or cookies?” he asked getting some kind of idea for a game.
