6:50pm

I flipped through the channels trying to find something to watch, I settled on 21 Jump Street. I got under the covers to get comfortable.

"Johnny is so fine." I comment before popping a olive in my mouth.

After the whole passing out fiasco at my grandparents, I stayed with them for a few days before coming home. My dad wasn't happy when finding out I was with Jackie, he didn't spazz out too much since I was still recovering.

That was my first time passing out. I'm unsure about having Jackie back in my life if she's going to cause me so much stress that I fall unconscious. Then again, it would be nice to have my birth mother be in my life again.

I missed school this whole week, I plan on going back next week. I finished all of my make up work, you wouldn't believe who dropped it off at my grandparents, Elijah of course. I didn't see him cause I was sleep, I'm glad I didn't because it would've been awkward if I did. He hasn't phoned me or came to see me since, crooked finger fuck.

I know that sounded cruel but he hasn't bothered to hit my line to check on me. I was afraid our first fight would end bad- it wasn't even a fight, it was more like a...shit I don't know. Maybe it was a mistake to be more than friends, some things aren't meant to be.

A knock on my door broke me from my thoughts, "Come in."

The door opens, Alex comes in sitting on my bed, "Hi."

"Hi."

"How're you feeling?"

"Pretty good, I drank some tea and ate olives so I feel like I'm in heaven." I laugh.

His face contorts in disgust, "Ew, I bet your breath smells like a public bathroom after a hot dog eating contest." he insults.

"Wanna find out?" I quickly grab his shoulders pulling him towards me, blowing my breath at his noise.

He pushed me away, dramatically gasping for air taking hard breaths, "Oh. My. God. I was right, I see why Elijah stopped talking to you, blah." he waves his hand over his nose.

See, I can't rant to this boy about nothing, he always throws it back in my face.

My eyes roll, "What do you want pipsqueak?"

"Henry wanted me to tell you he's going to take me home and he's staying out for the night." he answers, my eyebrows raised.

"Henry, come here!" I yell.

He walks in my room wearing a button up shirt and slacks, "Whats up?" he walks to my mirror to comb his hair.

"Where are you going tonight hot shot?" I sit up in my bed.

"Out on a date."

"With who? I thought you and Amelia broke up." I say already knowing this. He's been seeing this mystery lady for a while and won't tell me a lick about her.

"Yeah we did. How many times are yous gonna ask me who she is knowing I'm not going to tell you? You don't know her." he projects taking a seat on my desk.

"I know a lot of people, Henry. Are you ashamed of her, she must have a glass eye, a wooden leg and crooked teeth or sum." me and Alex laugh as Henry straight faced us.

"You must be hiding something cause you always tell me about the regazzos you date. Why does she have to be kept a secret?" I watch his eyes cut at me while he rubbed his knee, he's nervous.
