10 Miles Wide

Evicted.

I smiled a little at Craig as a car pulled up and a guy with long black hair and snake bites got out and hugged Craig, "Hey man." Craig laughed, "Hey Max. Oh, do you guys think we can give my friend Izzy a ride home?" Max nodded, "Hell yeah. Shit, Craig is that the Izzy you were telling me about when I was here yesterday?" I seen Craigs face get a little red, "Shut the fuck up man." I smiled a little and got in the car and was sitting next to a skinny guy with blonde in his hair and a tall guy with curly hair and sunglasses. Craig got in the passenger seat and looked back at me as Max got in the driver seat, "By the way Izzy, that tall guy next to you is Robert and the short one is Bryan or Monte, whatever you wanna call him." I nodded a little, Bryan looked at me, "So you're Izzy?" I nodded, "Unfortunately." He looked at me again, "What do you mean?" I shrugged and didn't say anything, Craig spoke up, "Monte, leave her alone." Bryan nodded and looked out the window again. We got to where my apartment was and I got out and seen something on my door. It read "Evicted." I groaned and got my phone out of my pocket and called Siearra, she answered, "Yeah?" I sighed, "What the hell? How did we get evicted?" She laughed, "You think I was paying the rent when I have been staying with Tyler? Bullshit, I can live here for free. Sorry hun, find a new place to stay." I sighed and hung up and sat on the step in front of the house and cried, when Craig walked up and looked at me, "Are you okay?" I shook my head, "My friend she let us get evicted and now I don't have anywhere to go besides going home to Ohio and live with my parents again." Craig sighed and held his hand out for me to take, "No, come on." I took his hand and walked with him back to the car, he sighed, "Hey guys?" They all turned and looked at him, Max spoke, "Yeah?" Craig smiled, "Izzy got evicted. Can she stay with us?" They all smiled, "Yeah!" I laughed a little and hugged Craig slightly, "Thank you so much." After that I hugged Max, then Bryan, and finally Robert. I got in the car and Max drove to this amazing house, they all got out and I followed. Craig looked back at Robert and Monte, "Help Izzy with her bags please guys?" They nodded and I seen Bryan look at my guitar case and I swear his eyes lit up, he looked at me, "You play?" I nodded as we walked in the house. Craig lead me upstairs to an empty room, "This is your room. My room is right next to it, Max is across the hall. Monte is across from me and Robert is next to him." I nodded and he went to walk out, "Craig?" He stopped and looked at me, "Yeah?" I sighed, "Thank you so much." He nodded, "It's no problem. If you want you can just live here with us and make sure it's gonna work and then you can be a new roomate. Maybe if we all become friends, you can even tour with us. But for right now, if you want you can get a job. Make some new friends and get some extra money." I nodded and Craig walked out of my room. I decided I would go and find a job at the mall tomorrow, I fell asleep.
I woke up the next morning and got dressed in my favorite black skinny jeans a white fox racing shit and slipped on my converse and walked into the bathroom where I put in my lip ring and looked at my nose stud. I decided to change my bellybutton ring to my favorite Playboy bunny dangly one. I straightened my hair and put on my eyeliner and walked downstairs after grabbing my purse. I seen Craig and Max sitting in the living room, they were talking about something. Max spoke, "You wrote this while you were getting help?" Craig nodded, "I just can't figure out what the first verse should be. I need something to inspire me with an idea so I can get this done and we can record it and perform it on stage." Max nodded, "Well why don't you talk to Izzy? She seems to be changing a lot about you." Craig smiled, "She's beautiful Max. I hardly know her, she's so shy and quiet but I figurd if we let her live here she might warm up to us and break out of the shell that she formed around herself." Max nodded, "That makes sense." I walked into the livning room, "I'm going to the mall." I seen Bryan walk down the stairs, "Can I come with?" I laughed a little, "Sure Bry. Come on." We walked out and walked to the mall which was only like a ten minute walk. We got in and Bryan looked at me, "Where to first?" I shrugged, "I wanna see if Hot Topic or Spencers are hiring." Bryan nodded, "Well if you work at either think you can get me a discount on some stuff?" I smiled and we both laughed, Bryan looked at me, "You know, you can trust me." I nodded, "I figured, but...what do you think about me?" Bryan shrugged, "I think something happened that made you put up walls to protect yourself and you don't let people in until they prove they are who they say they are." I looked at Bryan, surprised that he got it that quick, "How did you know that?" He smiled, "Because I did the same exact thing after this girl that I was absolutely in love with left me for some guy she met three months after we got together." I hugged him, "I'm sorry Bry. You wanna know why I'm like this?" Bryan looked at me, "You don't have to tell me." I sighed, "You understood exactly how I felt and why I built up walls like I did. I know I can tell you." He nodded, "Go ahead then." I sighed, "Well, I was fifteen. My boyfriend of almost two years decided to go and cheat on me with the school whore. After I found out he told me I was worthless and no one would ever waste their time to actually love me. I should just fall over dead and no one would care. I ended up snapping and trying to kill myself. I ended up in the hospital for three weeks, at first they just put me in some group therapy. Then after another three years I snapped again, they tried the group again and it worked for another two years and then finally they put me in that home for six months. I think that helped the most." Bryan looked at me and hugged me, "You can stay at the house as long as you fucking want." I smiled, "Thanks Bry." We went and walked to Hot Topic and luckily they were hiring I got a job and I started tomorrow. The guy that was there looked at me, "Izzy?" I turned and looked at him, "Yeah?" He smiled, "I'm Trevor. You're gonna be working with me for awhile." I nodded, "Okay." I walked out with Bryan, after we were out of the mall he looked at me, "Be careful at work." I looked confused, "Why?" He sighed, "Trevor. He seems really nice, but he's an asshole. Don't get involved with him." I nodded and we walked back to the house. We walked in and Bryan went and talked to the guys. I went up to my room and sat on my bed thinking, why did I open up to Bryan so quickly? It was like he wasn't even trying to get me to tell him and I just cracked. I closed my eyes when I heard voices in the hall, "How did you get her to open up?" That was Craig, "I don't know. I just told her what I understood about her and she figured out that she can trust me and she told me why she's like she is." Craig sighed, "Can you tell me Monte?" Bryan laughed a little, "I can't. There's a reason she trusted me. I'm not gonna cave and tell you every secret she told me. Sorry Craig." There were footsteps and I heard the door slam, Craig was in his room. I heard him sing again, "Living on the coast of cocktails and telling lies got a fucking curse that's coming to life, left me here for all these days and ripped apart my pride. Take my place and look inside, I'm trying to find a place to hide, hide. Lost my faith but don't you cry, I got a hole inside and it's ten miles wide. It's not too late, I'm close behind. I've gotta get inside your mind, mind. Lost my faith but don't you cry, I got a hole inside and it's ten miles wide, wide, wide, wide. Take me on, I'm feeling in the mood for something dangerous, I've found myself again. Take me on, I'm feeling in the mood for something dangerous, I've found myself again." I smiled hearing him sing, I loved his voice. It's unique and when he's singing it feels like I'm the only one around and I don't know why.
