Forest City 4 Chapter 13 -Chilly Winter's Breeze-

-

    Content warning: lil' swear

    I pressed my head up against the door, trying to listen in on Cobalt and Mr Lupin's conversation. Monty stood next to me, trying to get me to look at something. I continued to ignore and block all of the sounds around me.

    The conversation went like this, roughly...

     "Did you cheat?" Mr. Lupin began sounding quite bitter.

    "No, I would never!" Cobalt replied.

    "Is that so!?" Mr. Lupin continued, "because Bonnie-"

    "Oh so you're listening to Bonnie now," Cobalt replied quite bitterly.

    "Absolutely not!" Mr. Lupin responded defensively, "look at what you have, don't go around wasting it."

    "I didn't kiss her, if you were wondering," Cobalt replied silently, "she made me do it..."

    Mr. Lupin went silent.

    "Why are you so concerned with what Bonnie has to say or do?" Cobalt asked with despair in his voice, "You're acting like a high schooler right now."

    "It's just that..." Mr. Lupin paused, "I'm glad you're happy with your partner, I've seen you get better, and I've seen how much of a positive influence they have been on you. Hell, I wish that could be the same with me. I wish I could have been better for you... and for Daisy."

    "I know how hard it was for you to be there and for you to be a supportive father. I-I want you to get better and be a good dad for Daisy. It pains me everyday to think about how she's so much younger than me and living without a father. I want you to be there for her... okay..." Cobalt replied.

    "MAC!" Mom practically screamed, her hand covering her mouth.

    The front door opened and a chilly winter's breeze wafted through the house, all eyes sharply pointed at Cobalt.

    Mom had grabbed me and held me close, I tried to release myself, but couldn't get her to budge.

    She yelled, "What did you do! What did Mac do to deserve this!"

    "Now listen here," Mr. Lupin came to Cobalt's defense, "it's not what it sounds..." his eyes met a familiar sharp green eyes from across the room, his face turned from anger to expressionless, "she did this," he had finished what he was saying.

    "You." Mr. Lupin spat threateningly.     I sat in silence waiting for the attack.     "You are in so much trouble Macadamia," Lupin's voice began to rise in volume as he approached me, he continued while still taking steps towards me, "You think this game your playing is so smart, that you can ruin someone's life because you hate them."     Don't let his words get to you, I thought to myself, it's not worth it .     "Well, listen here, I hope that you get expelled and sent back to your father's farm," Lupin's words practically wounded me. He was awfully close to my face, his snout almost touching mine and he said silently, "Between you and me, I will win this little game you're playing." He took his hands off of the armrest of the chair I was sitting in, I hadn't noticed that my arms were wrapped around my chest in defence.     "Conall, get back in here, now," sounded Mrs. Chordata from the ...

Forest City Chapter 9 -Liar-

    It was around 3:52 when Aunt Hazel and I arrived back at her apartment. She has 8 minutes to get ready for tea with the ladies and I had already made my way up the stairs and into my room, remembering to not hit my head on the ceiling. I gazed out the window, hoping that Cobalt would be waiting, his lights were off and I didn't get to see his handsome blue eyes. My phone buzzed.     Cobalt: 3:53 "Expect to see me with no fur lol."       -Cobalt sent a GIF-     -Mac joined the conversation-     Mac: 3:53 "Lol how's detention going."     Cobalt: 3:53 "Dad was furious, Tora got away with it. D:<"     Mac: 3:54 "Sorry to hear about that, any other stupid consequences."     Cobalt: 3:54 "Lunch detention..."     Mac: 3:55 "What about Bonnie, she's going to drive Monty up the walls with her constant staring and gossiping."     Cobalt: 3:55 "Bonnie's been glaring at you two durin...

Forest City 2 Chapter 1 -October-

    It has been a month since Bonnie's disastrous birthday party, she hasn't talked to me since then, I don't blame her. I stepped over a few piles of dirty laundry in my room and opened my big dresser and all of it's glorious drawers. As a kid, I used to play in dresser drawers, I mostly rummaged through my parents and sisters dressers looking for something fun in them. I never was allowed in my brother's rooms, but I'm sure all that I'd find in their dressers are a bunch of old superhero comics or... I don't know... nut free snack foods. My brother Sorrel is a topic of conversation, he's deadly allergic to tree nuts, which is ironic because, well, we're squirrels. I threw that thought out of my brain, none of my clothes were clean, all my drawers were empty, and most importantly, Aunt Hazel was out of town. I DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW TO USE A WASHING MACHINE!!!     Our other neighbor, that lives on the opposite side of the Lupins, to the left of...
