CANNON
Explosions and gunshots sounded through my
headphones, drowning out the nauseating couple in the
kitchen making protein bites together.
My best friend, West, and his new girlfriend, Halle, were
still in new couplehood bliss, making healthy snacks
together to grab on the go, like the fit couple they were.
If I sounded bitter, I wasn’t.
Okay, maybe a little.
Not because I was jealous of his sickening lovey-dovey
relationship. That was not what I wanted. But I did miss my
best friend.
West and I used to hang out all the time. I’d drag him out
to the bar, and we’d be each other’s wingmen. More like he
would be my wingman, since he hadn’t been interested in
anything other than work. At least until Halle had shown up.
Now I was all alone. And not just when I went to the bar.
West wasn’t just my best friend, he was my only friend.
Which hadn’t been a big deal before he ditched me for a
pretty brunette.
My fingers flew over the controller, moving on their own.
I’d played this video game so many times that I didn’t even
have to think about it anymore.
I’d gotten into video games at a young age. Same as now,
I’d used it to block out the conversations happening around
me back then. It would drown out the yelling, the cursing,
things crashing to the ground. I could get lost in a fantasy
world and pretend I was somewhere else, anywhere but in
that awful house.
A loud knocking broke through the sounds of my game.
Pushing off my headphones, I looked around but didn’t
see West or Halle in the kitchen, where I had thought they
had been.
Knocking sounded again, and I set down my controller
and walked toward the door. I opened it and took a step back
in surprise.
She was the last person I expected to see on the other side
of the door. And I especially didn’t expect to see her
surrounded by more luggage than any one person should
ever have. The shiny rose-gold suitcases covered practically
every inch of the third-floor landing.
My eyes couldn’t completely focus on her luggage enough
to count how many pieces because they didn’t want to stop
drinking in the beautiful woman in front of me.
Her blonde hair was down, with one side in the front
pulled up and back in some intricate braid, showcasing a face
so beautiful that I always struggled not to stare at whenever
I was with her. She wore a matching black athleisure set, the
zip up jacket fitting to her upper body with a sliver of her
skin showing that had me hurrying to look back up at her
face.
“Hey, Cannon,
” she said, looking past me. “Is West
home?”
Her voice pulled me out of my daze and made me finally
notice that her eyes were watery and her cheeks were
blotchy.
Had she been crying?
But before I got a chance to say anything, West came to
the door, shifting me aside.
“Demi?” he asked, his voice full of concern. “What’s
going on?”
