Unconditional

Chapter 11

"Dude, I swear he was so fucking cute. I took him to the party and we just hit it off. I invited him to that thing, I hope it's ok" Joey looked and sounded excited. I am glad he met someone who made him feel like that.

"Are you talking about the friend night thing Xios was telling me about?" I was sitting on the kitchen counter eating an ice cream sandwich. I was on my third one and planned to eat a fourth.

Joey got up and punched Xios in the arm, "Dude you weren't supposed to tell her." Xios shrugged then thought about it then shook his head.

"Tell her about what? I just told her we were all going out as friends." Xios was practically glaring at Joey now as he understood and nodded.

"Right, I must still be high." He walked away and plopped himself on the couch as Caleb came home, "Dude! Finally, you've been gone for almost a week now."

"I was busy." He walked upstairs.

"You've been gone a week?! What could you have possibly been busy with?? You too busy to text me or something??" I had gotten up and behind him. He just turned and looked at me, "You fucking reek of alcohol, Caleb. Is that what you've been doing!?"

He huffed and shook his head, "It's none of your business, now leave me alone." He pushed me backwards and it felt like time stood still for me. I was falling...because Caleb pushed me...he pushed me. I was bracing for impact when nothing happened. I looked up and saw Xios had caught me. I turned around and hugged him as he glared at Caleb.

"What the hell is your problem!!? You can't just push people down the stairs like that! Especially not your girlfriend!"

"Who said she was my girlfriend anymore huh?"

I looked up at him and my eyes got watery, "What?"

"Hell, who even said we were friends?? Leave me the fuck alone man." He walked to his room and slammed the door. Joey had gotten up and walked over to us. Chris heard the commotion and came out of his room to join us.

"All in favor of kicking the drunk out, say I." Chris said as he held his hand up.

"I" Joey and Xios said at the same time. They both looked at me as I just sat there and cried. I was making any noises, I was just letting the tears run down my face.

"I," I said as I raised my hand. The boys all nodded as Chris and Joey went upstairs. Xios sat down on the couch and comforted me.

Chris was throwing Caleb's stuff outside and Joey was holding a thrashing Caleb.

"What the hell are you doing?! You can't do this! This is my house too you ass holes!!" He was thrown into the yard.

"Consider yourself kicked you, alcoholic ass." Chris said as he slammed and locked the door. Joey sat down on the couch and let out a sigh. He ran his hands through his hair and looked over at me.

"Well, Xios can have his room now and you don't have to worry about him anymore. He doesn't live here anymore."

"So, how do you guys decide who to kick out? Is it how we just did or?" Xios was a little lost.

"Normally we ask Fluffy because technically he owns the place, we just all help pay for it. Except Aeryn, she took the responsibility in buying food and cleaning supplies."

"That's s-"

"Before you call us sexist, she wanted to do it. She says those are the two things she is actually good at. Which is bullshit because she is good at a lot of things."

I hide my face in the couch and blush. I was embarrassed because I didn't think I was good at anything but those two things.

"Well, I guess I will start moving in tomorrow" Xios let me go and stood up to stretch.

"Ok, and this was a special case by the way. If you drink than that's ok but if you drink to the point where you hurt others in the house then we kick you out automatically. Same with drugs." He gets up and makes a phone call to his new boo.
