Always Watching
Chapter 2
I wake up in a strange room with a pounding headache. Where am I? Oh, nevermind this is Linda's living room. Wait, why am I here? I get up from the couch that I was sleeping on and walk to the kitchen to get some Advil. Once I get it, I call Linda.
"Linda," I called her so she could come downstairs, no answer.
"Linda?" I call and once again there is no answer.
"LINDA GET DOWN HERE RIGHT NOW!!!" No answer.
I dash upstairs to Linda's room but the door was locked. I had to go back downstairs to get the spare key. Once I opened the door, I found Linda sitting on the floor sobbing.
"Linda, what's wrong?" I asked her, I was worried.
"Don't you remember Bridge?" She asked me as I now stood there, confused.
"Remember what?" I asked.
"Steven died, so we started drinking. You were drinking so much that I had to stop drinking so I could hold your hair while you barfed," She said all of this through tears.
"Steven... Died? And.. I.. I... Didn't remember? How could I not remember?" I was now crying too. If you're wondering who Steven is, he's Linda's brother, but he was like a brother to me as well. He was in the army, and we were expecting a visit from him in a few months. I guess those plans are cancelled now. Last time we saw him was last year.
After an hour of crying, I realised that this is not what he would have wanted.
"Linda, we need to stop crying. We can't cry all our lives and he would've wanted us to be happy,"I said as calmly as I could.
"HE WOULD'VE WANTED US TO BE HAPPY BECAUSE HE DIED!? WHAT'S YOUR PROBLEM BRIDGETTE?!" She was crying and yelling now. I just unleashed a monster.
"No Linda, he would want us to move on and live a happy life. Dont cry because it's over, smile because it happened," I said trying to get her to stop.
"SMILE BECAUSE HE DIED?! YOU AREN'T HELPING BRIDGE!!!" Will this girl ever understand anything I say?
"No, smile because you were fortunate enough to have an amazing brother like him. Smile at all your memories, and the games you played as children. Smile because he loved you, and he still does. Smile because he's in a better place now, and he's not at any sort of risk. Smile because he was the best brother anyone could have. I'm sorry., I meant that he still is the best brother anyone could have," I surprised myself with the speech I gave and Linda surprised me by stopping the waterworks.
"You're right, sorry Bridge I was overexaggerating," She said.
"That's what best friends are for!" I gave her a hug and thought of a great idea.
"Hey, why don't we go get some ice cream and some funny movies and you can stay at my place for tonight," I asked her and she nodded.
We got ready and bought some Ben and Jerry's and rented a bunch of movies that Adam Sandler starred in.
Once we stepped into my house, I noticed something weird. THERE IS A DOG IN HERE!!!!
"MOM!!! DAD!!!" If you're wondering why I'm calling my parents it's because they are visiting me this weekend.
"Yes sweetheart?" My mom asked.
"WHY IS THERE AND ADORABLE PUPPY IN MY LIVING ROOM??" I asked with the biggest smile on my face as I touched the happy little pup.
"He's yours now. You can name hine whatever you want!" My dad shouted from the kitchen.
"YAY!!!" Both Linda and I screamed. We are both obsessed with puppies!!!!
"Want to name him Steven?" I asked Linda.
"I want to but it's too sad and it's not a dog's name. How about Max?" She suggested and I completely agreed.
"Max it is! Let's take him out for a walk, but let me change first.
Once I changed I went downstairs to walk Max. We decided to eat our ice cream later and took him to a dog park.
THERE WERE SO MANY CUTE PUPPIES THERE!!!! I noticed something was off when a bunch of dogs started running towards something, including Max.
It was a cat. A really cute cat being held by a really attractive owner, but the attractive owner is him. The one that stalks me.
"Linda, it's him. AGAIN." I said in an annoyed matter.
"Calm down Bridge, it's not like he's going to kill you," She said. Was he?
We decided to stalk him to see what he was going to do. I was shocked when I saw him put an adorable little helme on his cat and put him in a basket on his motorcycle.
"Linda, he's a biker," I said with a bit of worry.
"I'll give you some advice Bridge, stay away from him," She said right before she dropped to the floor.
