Chapter 2: My parents have a weird obsession with Naruto.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WHEN I GOT HOME, I holed myself up in the basement, trying to finish the painting.
Chase has gone gaga since he saw the female boxer, what was her name again, oh yes, Kai.
I add the finishing touches and take a step back, smiling as I look at the image of a little girl, the rain pouring down on her but she's staring at the bright sun, a smile on her face, her clothes are dirtied with mud, she has a small bug on her face but she still has that innocent smile right there on her cute face.
I rub my hands on the apron and take it off, I look at the clock and my eyes widen, "Shoot!" I gasp and straighten my pants, I bolt to the stairs and run into the living room.
Everyone stops what they're doing and look at me, "Why didn't anyone tell me that it's already past six o'clock?" I ask and glare at the seven of them.
"And when did Dad get home?" I throw my hands up, shaking my head.
"About an hour ago." Ethan says looking back to the TV. My left eye twitches and mom smiles nervously, "Temari, calm down, we didn't want to disturb you, Macy told us how important it was for you to finish that painting today." Mom says.
And yes, you read right.
My parents have a weird obsession with Naruto, she named each and everyone of us after some of the characters in the anime.
Yep, so I'm named after Temari, my blonde hair and my mismatched eyes, the left one's teal, the right is brown.
June is named after Sakura, she actually dyed her hair pink to make her look a lot like Sakura, her green eyes making it a lot easier for the look.
May is Hinata, mom had to dye her hair black almost everytine to stop the blonde from showing, her pale blue that's almost white eyes made her look even more innocent than she sounded.
I know it sounds harsh thinking that a mom would dye her daughters hair black just so they could fit the character she thought her of, but to be real, May actually looks better with black hair than blonde hair.
Ethan and Kira, the twins, who really look like each other.
Ethan has blonde hair and blue eyes, just like Naruto, he even acts like him!
Kira is Ino yamanaka, her pale blue eyes making her look a lot like Ino.
Mom is Lady Tsunade, her brown eyes so intimidating it can make you pee your pants.
Dad is just Lady Tsunade's husband, even though he doesn't look anything like Jiraiya. His black, short hair is the total opposite of Jiraiya.
Chase, you can classify him as Sasuke. He's always too serious, has the same black hair that falls and the same dark eyes.
Sometimes I wonder if mom actually cut us out from the anime.
But, it's kind of me and dad that look different, I mean, Temari didn't have dreadlocks, although they're still the same sandy blonde as hers, dad is like Jiraiya, but without the face makeup and the white hair.
"Oh go get me my beer, this show really is interesting." Dad comments, his eyes glued to the TV.
"Get one for me too!" Ethan says and I shoot him my hardest glare, grumbling and walking into the kitchen.
I pull out the beer and walk back into the living room, only to find that no one is there and they're already rolling the credits.
"Come on!"
I stomp all the way upstairs, to my room. I flip down on the bed and huff in anger.
My mind goes back to that author guy.
Austin Henderson.
The way his pitch black hair fell over his face, to his eyes, the way he stared at me with those ocean blue eyes. Captivating me in those blue swirls.
I could still feel his warm hands wrapped around my waist, holding me from hitting the floor when he crashed into me.
I could still feel his warm breath fanning my face, and I could still see the way he looked like he was about to pee his pants.
Fiddle sticks!
I roll over just as my phone pings.
I see that it's a text from Adam.
Video call, now!
I furrow my brows and grab my laptop, answering the call.
Adam's brown curls coming into view, he was applying some cream to his hair, probably one of the thousand hair products he has.
"So I see you've met Mr author guy." He says and I furrow my brows, I didn't tell anyone about it.
"What do you mean?" I ask, and he rolls his eyes, shoving his phone to his laptop camera.
"It's been all over the internet!
World famous chef Theresa Freeman's daughter, April Freeman caught on camera with famous author Austin Henderson in an intimate position.
Does this mean the seventeen year old artist and the eighteen year old author could be dating.
Latest couples? We can't wait to find out.
This is soo stupid! Like, how could they say this from just one picture?!" He yells and I groan, running my hand over my face.
I did not want this.
I did not want any attention on me!
Why does the world keep messing up my chances of living a normal life?!
Curse you universe!!!!
"What the- why would someone even post that?" I ask and he rolls his eyes.
"For juicy gossip, you guys are going to be the talk of the month, or maybe even the year!" He throws his hands up for emphasis and I roll my eyes.
"April!" I hear June scream and I roll my eyes again, "I gotta go, I'll call you later."
He waved me off, looking at himself in the mirror. "Yeah, yeah, I'll talk later."
I roll my eyes again, that's like three eye rolls in a row, then I cut the call.
I close the laptop and walk out of the room, then I walk into the one that's right next to mine, the pink explodes in my face as I take in her room.
Pink walls, pink curtains, pink closet, pink bed, everything was pink.
A pink head pops out of the wall in closet, glaring at me.
"Why in the world is there a paint stained shirt in my collection of ball dresses?" She questions and I shrug, walking to her bed and flopping down in it. She walks out and for once, she's in her slippers.
"Have you seen the article about you and that author guy?" She asks, sitting on the bed next to me.
"Yeah, I don't really know why they have to make a big deal out of every little thing, he only ran into my ice cream when I was with Chase, and how the fudge didn't they get Chase in the picture? They made it look like I was getting too close with him!"
She laughs and lays back, her pink hair pooling around her, it was so long, all the way down to her waist.
I get some of her hair in my mouth and I start spitting, trying to get it out as she laughs at me.
I glare hard and turn my face, staring at the glass cat that was on her nightstand.
"Hey guys." I hear May's soft voice call and I turn to look at her.
"The innocent one of the three, what's wrong?" I ask and she rolls her eyes at the nickname.
"Have you seen the article?" She asks softly as she sits at the foot of the bed.
"Ugh, does everyone else know about this?" I groan and she giggled.
I sit up from the bed and stare at the both of them.
Triplets. The only thing we have that's identical is the shape of out face, the way we roll our eyes and the way we do things but in physical appearance, not much.
I'm pretty sure that's the reason why mom decided to change our appearances, I remember really well when May got into some really big trouble, I had to replace her so she wouldn't pass our and they didn't even notice.
May starts to play with her hair, brushing away the bangs that were trying their hardest to enter her eyes.
"I'm hungry, who's hungry?" I ask and they both roll their eyes.
"You're always hungry!" They both say at the same time and look at each other, a small smile playing on their lips.
"Come on."
After dinner, eating is called what?
Anyone know, tell me.
I shove the last chip in my mouth and watch as June eats her salad. May was eyeing the donuts that Ethan had already laid claim on.
"So, tomorrow, Clark and the guys are coming over, he's been begging me and I can't say no anymore." June says.
Clark is her boyfriend, really annoying guy, I almost want to shove his face in all the time.
I groan and May slumps in her chair, making a pouty face. "Come on, he's your third boyfriend, settle down with someone that's not a douche." I say and May gasps.
"I know, he's just the raining guy now and I had to have a taste of him!" She smirks and I laugh, May giggling along.
We know her too much.
Chase walks in, his dark hair over his bored and straight face. I look at him with raised brows, I can't still believe he was the person that was squealing yesterday over that boxer girl.
He can really pull off the face of Sasuke, probably because he was always a bored kid.
"Have you seen the article?" He asks, for a fourteen years old boy he has a really deep and rumbly voice.
Almost like Sasuke, he definitely deserves an award for how much he can pull off the act of Sasuke.
"Ugh, how has every other person seen this?!" I ask in exasperation, throwing my hands up.
"Maybe it's because you don't have a social life anywhere other than between these walls." June murmurs and I narrow my eyes at her.
Unbelievable!
Chase rolls his eyes and sits down beside me, scrolling through his phone.
My own phone pings and I look at it, message from Macy.
'Have you seen the article?'
I groan and shut my phone off, stealing one of May's cupcakes.
"Hey!" She protests and I give her an innocent smile to which she glares at.
She may look really innocent but she had a death glare.
"I'm going to bed, tomorrow's a Sunday and you June, do not even dare wake me up before three o'clock." I say and narrow my eyes at her making her put her hands up in the air in surrender.
I smirk and walk towards the stairs of the building.
I throw the door to my room open and run for my bed, jumping and landing directly in the middle.
I snuggle in and was just getting comfortable when I realize I'm still in my skirt and not PJ's.
I groan and stands up reluctantly, walking to my huge walk in closet to pull out my pajama shorts and a loose shirt.
I pull my dreads into a bun and pull on my clothes, feeling the cool breeze hitting my skin.
I walk to the window and push it open, stumbling back to my bed, I snuggle in and pull the covers over my body.
I know, I sleep in the weirdest way possible.
Why open the windows only to cover yourself?
Well let me tell you why.
Because it brings a particular cool into the room.
If you get me, then you get me.
*.*.*.*.*.*.*.
I wake up with a jolt, nearly tumbling off my bed since I was already halfway off.
I rub at the drool that sticks to my face, blinking and looking around my room.
Do not judge me, I dreamt of over cream and pie, and besides, I'm not a really cute sleeper.
I glance at the clock, eyes widening when I see that it's one in the afternoon.
"Oh come on! I can't have a beauty rest? Isn't my suffering enough?!" I cry, feeling the tears build up in my eyes.
I blink them away and walk to the bathroom. I'm very emotional when I wake up.
After brushing and having a soaking warm bath, I change into lazy sweatpants and a tank top.
When I get downstairs, I immediately regret it.
June was in her boyfriend's lap, disgustingly making out.
I grab a pillow and throw it at them, making them both jump apart.
"Get a room, May could come in here and I don't want to run the innocence of the only innocent Freeman." I say and turn around.
I stop and turn to look at them again.
"On second hand, don't get a room, Ethan and Chase have done enough of ripping bones of guys that have been in there." I say, turning my attention to Clark whose eyes were wide.
I smirk and walk to the living room.
Only to see Kira making out with her own boyfriend on my favorite spot.
I'm frozen for a whole second but snap out of it as his hands slide under her shirt.
"Oh come on!"
