Chapter 4

I slowly open my eyes, to see Chris and Kelley talking on the chairs next to my bed. I quickly sit up, accidentally scaring them.
"I GO HOME TODAY!" I say, very excited.
"WE KNOW!" They both say in unison.
"And for that, Kelley and I decided..." And before Chris could say that, Kelley said it for him.
"A ROADTRIP! Because we thought you deserved it," she says, and they both look at me with a smile.
"REALLY? IM SO EXCITED!" I jumped out of bed, feeling better than ever. I completely ignored the fact that the whole reason I got here was because I was bullied. But that doesn't matter anymore. I have 2 great best friends.
I quickly slip on some clothes my mom brought me last night, and go over to my sleeping mom on the chair.
"Mom, wake up!" I say. "Let's get out of here!" Once she realized what I said, she quickly got up and we signed out of the hospital.
"Well you seem different!" My mother says in a happy tone.
"Yeah mom, I feel so much better. I now have some friends!" The moment I say that I regret it, because it makes me sound like a loser. They all laugh, I laugh too.
"Honey that's great. So what are you guys going to do today?" She says, putting the pen down and quickly saying thank you to the lady at the front desk.
"We decided to go on a road trip. Since its summer and all," I say.
Mothers POV:
I secretly knew what they were doing. They asked me to do it while she was asleep. They are going to be staying for the whole month of June, but Maddie doesn't know it. On the way there, they are going to surprise her by telling her. All of us parents are going to be paying for the whole trip.
Maddies POV:
"Alright. Sounds like a lot of fun!" My mom says in a weird tone.
"Yup! I'm so excited!" I say. Kelley and Chris smile back at me. I'm so glad to have such wonderful best friends.
"We are going to leave around 6. So just be at my house with your phone, some sunglasses, and your flip flops," he says as he winks at me.
(A/N: Chris Johnson is played by Robbie Amell. Robbie Amell plays Jimmy in True Jackson VP, and Wesley Rush in The DUFF, my favorite movie!)
"Okay!" I say. We all buckle in our seats and my mother turns on the radio. I don't feel like plugging my phone into the AUX cord.
20 minutes go by, and I'm at Chris's house. I hop out of the car with him. I want to say a personal thank you.
"Chris, before you go, I wanted to say: Thank you so much. I didn't know we were friends, and now you're my best friend. And to be honest, I've always had a huge crush on you," I say, with a face that looks kind of like this: 😁
He smiles, and leans in. I think he's going in to hug me, so I just stand there until he gets closer. Then I realize, he's coming in to kiss me. I kiss him back, with no hesitation.
"I've always liked you too," he says.
"Oh - er - wow. I love you," I said. WOW HOW STUPID AM I? HOW COULD I SAY THAT? HE PROBABLY THINKS IM SUCH A WEIRDO. UGH I HATE MY-
He kisses me and my thoughts are interrupted. Wow, I love him so much. We don't pull away for another 10 seconds.
"I love you more," he says with one of those famous smiles. All I do is smile back as cute as I can, and then walk away. If you looked in side my body, this is what you would see: 🎆🎆🎆
I open the car door, and I don't even say anything. My mom and Kelley both look at me with a smirk. And they slowly drive.
"So.... Anything you want to tell us?" Kelley asks.
I sit there with a HUGE smile on my face. I don't even bother to respond.
"Cool," Kelley says. My mom lets out a giggle.
Once we arrive to Kelleys house, I get out with her.
"KELLEY HE FREAKING KISSED ME LIKE 2 TIMES THEN TOLD ME HE LOVED ME!" I managed to get out, right at her doorstep.
"I KNOW! ME AND YOUR MOTHER BOTH KNOW! WE WATCHED! HAHA!" She says.
"BYE SEE YOU AT 6!" I say.
"BYE!" She says.
I get in the car, and 5 minutes go by. I get home and run right into my bright blue room. I open my vanity and do my makeup.
... It's 5:45.
