Chapter Thirteen
"Sharon?" I asked.
"Yes Martha?" she replied.
"Do you care if this new girl from school comes over this weekend to stay the night with me?"
"Of course not. I am glad to see you're making new friends."
I looked at Jackson. He was looking into his bowl of cereal. "Mom?" He said not lifting his head.
"Yes dear?" Sharon asked.
"Could my friend Nathan coming over this weekend since Martha is having a friend over? I'd like to have one over as well."
"Well I don't see why not. Just no sex. I am talking to the both of you. Tell your friends that as well. I am not going to home tonight so you guys keep all body parts to yourselves. Got it?"
"Yes." Jackson said and I nodded.
I stood up from the table and took my bowl into the kitchen. I have been staying here at Jackson's house for a month and a half. I kind of miss my parents house. Then again, I don't. I don't miss getting beat or yelled at. Eating cold meals and sleeping practically the floor.
Here at Jackson's I have everything I need. The one thing I really need though is for Jackson to talk to me again. I miss talking to him. He IS my BEST friend. I know here anymore I have been hanging out with Aubree at school. He probably thinks I don't care about him anymore.
I do care about Jackson. I care about him a lot. I just hope that he will soon realize he cares about me too and will start talking to me again.

"This is a really nice house." Aubree said when she walked in.
"Thanks, By the way Jackson is also having a friend over." I told her.
"Well this should be fun."
"Sharon said no sex or anything because she won't be home."
"Okay. I wouldn't anyways."
"That's good well we'd better go up to my room."
