~Annabelle~

Speaking of the devil or the second best, James comes walking towards me with the biggest smirk on his face.

'' So how did it go", He practically sang plopping on the couch.

'' It was different'', I said tauntingly walking away to the kitchen. Surprisingly, I'm still hungry. OK well not that surprised. He actually thought one box of pizza was going to be enough. Pfft, do I look like a salad eating bitch, No. One box of pizza to myself would have been satisfying.

'' What do you mean different'', James asked mimicking my voice.

''One, I don't sound like that and two he took me to aaaaa....'' I said tapping my chin, staring at the wall like it was my crystal ball.

'' A drive in movie, A dog pound, A sex..''

'' Imma stop you right there. One I don't think drive in movies even exist anymore. Unless he put a projector on his dashboard projecting a movie on his garage. Two, why would he take me the dog pound. Three whatever you were going to say didn't happen", I said heating up some shepard's pie.

'' One, that would be cool and romantic because its out of the box. Two, he could be sensitive and wanted to buy a dog and get shared custody. Three, it never hurts to make you blush.", He said in a duh tone.

'' He could've taken me to a skate park, or an abandoned pool and taught me how to dance, or he could've took me to the park and had a romantic candlelit picnic.'' I said walking to the table to devour my food.

'' What is this 'Baggage', Just tell me all ready", He said watching me swallow my first bite.

''Annnhhhh, wrong answer. The correct answer was he took me to a skate park. He taught me how to skate and we DID have a picnic.'' I said forking another piece.

'' That is different. How did you get into a skate park so late?'' He asked stealing a piece of my pie. I looked at him with disgust.

'' What, like you need to eat anymore food", he said taking my plate.

'' That's classified", I said hitting his arm.

'' Well did anything else happen"? He asked wiggling those stupid bushy eyebrows.

'' Not what you're thinking. He tried to kiss me but I skated down the ramp like a boss", I said laughing at myself.

'' Why did you do that"? He asked

'' I didn't want to kiss him...Goodnight", he knew I was done talking and I just wanted to relax my muscles and drool on my pillow.

~ Next morning~

I woke hearing the beautiful songs of the singing birds, feeling the warm crisp sun beating on my arm. I never felt like this in awhile. I never felt peaceful. I just laid in my soft bed thinking over the event of last night.

I thought about the almost kiss.

Surprisingly, disturbing thoughts didn't cross my mind like last time. No dark feeling came, the only feeling that came was regret. I wish I would've have kissed him and felt those soft lips against mine. I wish I could've felt his rough soft hands touching my cheeks. I wish, I wish, I wish.

In this moment, I realized that I was over my mother. Not because of Ashton, not because the regret. Because I am finally happy and things are starting to look my way. For the first time in a long time, I feel cared for.
