I Dare You

"You ready?," asked Janice as she fixed my hair. Am I? I haven't seen her in so long and by the way she answered me yesterday, it seems she doesn't want to see me. Like she didn't care. What if she doesn't show up? I sighed and closed my eyes.

"I hope so". She smiled and stared in satisfaction.

"I am so good at this". I giggled and lightly pushed her. "And don't worry, if she tries anything funny, I'll be a few steps away, stalking you". Same old Janice.

"Thanks," I hugged her tightly," I'm so glad I have you as a friend".

"I actually just became your friend in hope that I can hit it, but you're not going for it. One day you'll want me". Fuckin' Janice. I rolled my eyes and let her go.

"Come on, lets go". We walked outside and into Crystal's car. Here goes nothing. I started the car and started driving towards the mall.

"Okay, I'll be right over there," Janice pointed towards the left side of the food court. I nodded. She pulled into one last hug and made her way towards her table. Okay, just relax, be calm, and hope she comes. I looked over at Janice and she gave me two thumbs up.

*30 minutes later*

Why isn't she here?! She did stand me up. I looked over at Janice and she had her head in her hands with a bored expression on her face. I shrugged and shook my head towards the mall doors, signaling her for us to leave. She nodded and stood up, but then stopped dead on her tracks and stared widely towards me. What's wrong with her?

"Aphrodite?," someone said behind me. I stiffened and slowly turned around. There she is. My mom.

"Mom," I smiled and quickly stood up. I pulled her into a tight hug, which she returned back. I can't believe it. After five years, she's finally in front of me, hugging me again. A few tears ran down my face as I squeezed my eyes shut.

"I'm so glad to finally see you," she said. I felt my heart jump in happiness. I let her go and gestured her to sit. She sat across from me and smiled. She looks the same, just dressed more fancy. I frowned as I remembered the guy she left with. I looked over at Janice again and she smiled widely. I smiled back.

"How are you?," she asked.

"Happy, I thought you were never gonna come".

"I wasn't gonna stand you up".

"I'm glad you're here".

"Me too and you're so beautiful, just like I always imagined you'll be. Except...".

"Except what?," I widened eyes in panic.

"Your hair. Why did you dye it? It was so nice before, now it's....eh". I looked at my hair and I
suddenly felt self conscious.

"It's my favorite color," I said above a whisper.

"I know and I never liked it". Need to change the conversation.

"So, um, tell me your side of the story".

"What do you want to know?".

"Why did you leave?". She smirked and looked down on herself.

"Isn't it obvious?". I looked at her in confusion. "George has given me things your father couldn't give me in a life time". So, that's his name.

"Is that all that mattered to you? The money".

"It's all about money, honey. I got tired of working. It's a man duty to provide for him, his children, and his wife. He couldn't even do that". I stared at her in disbelief. Who is she? This isn't like her.

"But he loved you".

"Love is an illusion. Once you see that, then you'll understand".

"So, you never loved Crystal and I?".

"I did, but diamonds are a girls best friend. Your father was nothing, but a joke" she smirked as she looked at her diamond bracelet.

"And you're nothing but a bitch". She looked at me in anger and gasped.

"You do not talk to me that way".

"And you don't talk about my father that way!". Suddenly a man came up to us.

"Annabelle, we need to leave soon. We need to make to The Johnson's by five".
So this is George. I through my head back and laughed.

"What so funny?," he asked.

"This is the man you traded my father for? You'v got to be kidding me mom!".

"Do not disrespected him like that!".

"I see why you only like him for his money".

"Well I don't mean to brag, but I am the president of the Truman Company". Truman? That sounds familiar.

"You'll never understand Aphrodite".

"So you are the infamous Aphrodite. Your mother was right, you were gonna grow up to be beautiful young lady," he ran his hand down the side of my face. I turned my head away. "How would you like to be my second wife?". I looked at him in disgust.

"How would you like to get your ass kicked?," I heard someone say behind me. Andy? I turned around and ran into Andy's arms.

"You okay?," he asked with concerned eyes as he held me by my waist.

"Yeah I'm fine".

"Who is this?," she asked as she raised her eyebrow.

"Andy, Andy Biersack".

"Wow Andy, you lied to me".

"I wouldn't be the one talking, Annabelle," I said angrily.

"The offer is there if you agree," George smirked.

"I suggest you get the fuck out of here, before I fuckin' kill you," Andy warned.

"Young man, you don't scare. This is between me and her".

"Well now it's between you and me". Andy punched George in the face, knocking him down.

"Don't you ever fuckin' come near again, you fuckin' pervert.".

"Don't hurt him!," Mom pushed Andy back and drop to her knees to help George.

"And you Ms. Adams, I expected more from you. You left a great man and family for this piece of shit?! Mr. Adam's will always be more of a man he'll ever be," said Andy as he looked down at my mom. I laughed and wrapped my arms around his neck. Wait a minute...Truman!

"You're president of the Truman Company?!," I asked in excitement.

"Thinking of accepting my offer," George said as he got up. Ew.

"No you fuckin' asshole. The Truman Company is own by the Marmon and Jefferson Company".

"So?". I laughed as hard as I could and pointed at George.

"My father is the owner of the Marmon and Jefferson Company," I looked at Andy in disbelief.

"No he doesn't!," said Annabelle.

"The original owner passed away and since he didn't have any children to pass his company down to, so he passed it down to my dad". George widened his eyes. " I can't wait to see what my father is gonna do once he is told the president of his Truman Company is the man his wife left him for and just offered his daughter to be his wife and is a sick, disgusting, pedophile".

"You wouldn't," said Annabelle.

"I would," we stared at each other intensely," anyways, fuck you both. George, good luck finding a job. Mom...Annabelle, you're a fuckin' bitch and good luck loving this man for the money he soon will not have". I waved goodbye and started walking away with Andy.

"You bitch!," she yelled. I turned around and saw her running towards me. Right as I was about to get ready to punch her, Janice stuck her arm out, causing her to fall back.

"Couldn't let you have all the fun," she smirked as she started walking with us.

"Where were you this entire time?".

"There was a big line at Burger Place".

"So, why were you at the mall?," I asked Andy as I sat on my bed.

"I went shopping with Mikey, Jayy, and Frank. They have some really awesome taste in clothes. Tight, but awesome," he said from he restroom.

"Well come out, I wanna see". He walked out with a leather jacket, black sleeveless Misfits shirt, black leather pants, and boots. Oh my....jizz.

"What you think?".

"I think I just had an orgasm". He smirked as he walked towards me. "I can't let you walk into school like that".

"And why not?," he asked as he laid next to me. I rested my head on his chest.

"Because all the girls are gonna want you and try everything to get you".

"No matter how many of them want me, I'm not gonna leave them for you". I pushed myself up towards his face and kissed him.

"Promise?".

"Promise".

"Even if they try to rape you".

"Yes".

"Even if they kidnap you". He chuckled.

"Yes".

"Good". I smiled and hugged him tightly.

"Isn't your birthday coming up soon?". Aw, he remembered.

"Yeah".

"I'ma have to do something special for you". I blushed.

"Really?".

"Yeah and you're gonna love it, I hope".

"I'll love it regardless, because it's coming from you".

"Time for bed, kido".

"Already?".

"It's ten and we have school tomorrow".

"Don't you have to change first".

"Right". He got up and ran into the restroom. I smiled as I hugged my pillow. Well, today I found out my mom is nothing, but a gold digging bitch, the man she left us for is a pervert, and my dad is a very powerful man. Out of all this shit, something good always comes into play. One day, my dad will find someone better and she'll actually love him for him, not for his money.
