~Happier With Him~

Tom's POV
(in case you forgot)

Me- Natalie, I'm not doing that. Angie is a good friend of mine.

Natalie(on phone)- You will if you want to keep this relationship alive.

Me- Can we talk about this some other time?

Natalie(on phone)- Fine. But if you don't stop talking to her, we're done.

[She hangs up and I sigh as I put my phone on my nightstand]

The Next Day
Angie's POV
[I wake up with the sun in my eyes. I sit up and look at the time on my phone. It's 10:36. I get up and change into this outfit:

I put on some sneakers and I head out my room and go downstairs. I see Wyatt sitting on the couch watching TV]

Me- Hey, Wyatt.

[He waves without looking away from the TV. I go into the kitchen and start to serve myself some breakfast]

Me- Good morning, mom.

Micheal- Your mom's not here.

[I look at him]

Micheal- She went out with her friends for a little bit.

Me- Okay..

[I feel my phone vibrate in my pocket. I sit down at the table with my plate and look at my phone. I see a message from Tom]
~~~

Tom: Hey

Me: Hey

Tom: So

Can we talk about what happened yesterday?

Me: Wdym?

Tom: Well

Yknow what just come over to my house we'll talk about it here

Me: Okay

~~~
[I quickly finish eating then put my plate in the sink and start to rush out the kitchen]

Micheal- Where are you rushing off to?

[I stop walking]

Me- One of my friends invited me over to their house.

Micheal- Does your mom know?

Me- No, my friend had just texted me. I'll text her when I'm on my way.

Micheal- Actually, you can't go out until I say you can.

[I look at him blankly]

Micheal- Your mom left me in charge.

Me- Yes. I know, but-

Micheal- So, until I allow you to leave, you're staying here.

[I look at him, then sigh. He looks around for a few seconds]

Micheal- Okay, you can go.

[I rush away from the kitchen entrance and head for the front door. I open it, step out, and shut it behind me as I start to walk to Tom's house]
———
[I knock on Tom's front door and wait for someone to answer. Then, the door swings open and I see Tom standing there]

Me- Hey-

[He grabs my hand and pulls me inside. He shuts the door and we quickly walk up the steps as his mom comes from the kitchen]
