“I’m not afraid to hurt you, you know,” Chloe growled, “I have no remorse for a brat like you who doesn’t know when to keep his mouth shut.”
“Oh no, I believe you. To be here, you must have a rotten soul. But I don’t think you can actually hurt me,” he taunts, his tone venomous, “You just tried, right? And it didn’t do a darn thing, so what do you think you’re going to do?” Joey takes a step closer to her, only about a foot of space between them now.
Chloe’s eyes narrowed, walking over to the male and slapping him hard across the face.
The boy recoiled when the girl slapped him, hand coming up to his cheek. It stung, making tears well up, eyes hidden by his shaggy hair. But, stubborn as he is, Joey laughs, standing up straight, a red imprint on his cheek where she hit him, “I’ve been slapped harder by my baby brother.”
“It also leaves you vulnerable and easily manipulated. If you want to be in denial then keep lying to yourself till you actually believe the lie.”
“Not necessarily, you keep your guard up while in denial. I’ve been trying that, hasn’t really worked so far.”
“It’s actually the worst but if you’re in denial then it wouldn’t matter.”
“But that’s why it is the best, because you’re in denial, so the reality of the situation doesn’t matter to you. I wish I was in denial.”
“No. Just let me get some clothes on.”
“I’m so very sorry,” he repeats, keeping his eyes covered, a light blush on his face, “I was sent up here, but I think I got the wrong room.”
“Really? Because they should,” Chloe growled, “No, actually, I might just prove it to you myself just to prove you wrong.”
Joey laughs in her face, crossing his arms over his chest, “I’d like to see you try,” he responds.
“So either I’m dreaming, hallucinating, stepped into an alternate reality, or all of the above. Wait, before you tell me what’s happening. Don’t. I know and I’m in perfect, healthy denial right now so don’t ruin it.”
“Denial is probably the best state to be, if I’m completely honest.”
“Maybe a little time with the guards will make you realize who’s in charge around here.”
“Your threats don’t scare me. If you’re so big and mighty to demand my respect, you’d do something yourself. But, you can’t. We both know you can’t, because you’re a small pathetic person.”
“You know what, you little brat? I’m telling the guards that you don’t know how to keep your mouth shut. You have to respect us, do you get that?”
“Respect is earned, not given, and a disgusting little girl like you is never going to receive any respect from me.”
“No, things would be easier for you because you would have a nicer place to stay, you’d have better food to eat, and you’d probably be spoiled. Excuse me? Do you wanna try saying that again?”
“In all honesty, this dorm isn’t all bad, considering the circumstances. I’m sorry, are you just so slow that you can’t keep up with the conversation? I’ll spell it out for you, in the simplest of terms? I said you’re an idiot, and Lord almighty help whatever poor idiot gets stuck with you.”
“Have you seen the news lately, kid? Everything is bad for you.”
“Not everything is bad for you. And, even if it all is, there’s no reason to try avoid some of the bad stuff, especially stuff so obvious like alcohol.”
“Why not? You’ll have it easier here if people like you. No, not really. I don’t even have a pet yet, who says they’re gonna dislike me in the first place?”
“Things won’t be easier for me, they’ll be easier for you all, since I wouldn’t fight against you so much. I said so, haven’t you been paying attention, or are you too stupid to remember? It’s only common sense that they wouldn’t, unless your future pet is also a complete idiot.”
“It also helps me relax when I’m frustrated. My liver is fine, it’s not like I’m drinking all the time. Lots of things are bad for you.”
“If you say so. Yeah, but you should still avoid doing those things that are bad for you. No need to put yourself in harm’s way.”
“Nobody likes a brat, which is what you’re sounding like to me. Lucky for me, though, they don’t exactly get to have a say in it.”
“Good thing I don’t mind if people here dislike me. That doesn’t make you feel even a little bit bad?”
“Giavanna. And uh…likewise.”
“Sorry you’re here. You seem like too kind of a person to be stuck here.”
“True that.”
“I’m Joey, by the way. Pleasure to meet you, despite the, uh, circumstances.”
“And why’s that? Once I find my pet, I’m sure I’ll be fine.”
“Nobody likes a complainer. And if you’re pet has any sense, they’ll want nothing to do with the likes of you.”
