Chapter 22 (Avery's POV)
I woke up in his arms. I felt safe and protected, and I haven't felt this way since mom died. I checked the time, it was 7:03 am and I need to go to Megan's to get ready. I slip from his grasp and he woke up. He smiled.
"I have to go, but I had fun," I smiled.
"Mkay. I'll be at your house at 8:30 to walk you," he said. Shit I forgot to tell him that its not my house.
"Actually, about that," my voice trailed off.
"What?" He asked sitting up, he was concerned.
"My grandmama got a new boyfriend. She kicked me out so he, he could have room." My voiced cracked as I held back tears.
"Avery, I'm so sorry. That's horrible. Where are you staying?" He asked.
"Megan's," I sniffled. Stop Megan you can't do this, not right now, not in front of him.
"Oh" he nodded.
"I-i gotta go, I'll see you at school." I said and gathered my things.
Why was this happening, I don't even like her. But the fact that every one else in my family has died off and that the one that's left hates me, that's what's gets to me. Every one but grandpa Joe, but he's barely family.
I sighed and blinked a few times as I forced a smile and left.
I walked to Megan's house and whiped the tears that had feel. I need relief.
I open the doors and walked up the stairs to Megan's room. She was curling her eyelashes and turned around. She gave a look of sympathy as she got up and hugged me. I sighed and we let go.
"Did y'all get married yet?" She joked. I giggled and shook my head.
"Nope! Not this time!" I said. She laughed and sat back down at her vanity. I changed clothes and did my makeup and hair. I wore white high waisted shorts with a turquoise crop top. They were Megan's and my grandmother would never approve, but who cares. Once we were both ready, We grabbed our board and left. Hopefully I can find cameron.
We were rolling down the street and I saw cameron. Tan khakis and a baseball tee. He had his white headphones in and was shaking his head to the beat. I looked at megan and smirked and but my finger to my lips signalling to be quit. She gave me a confused look but I just pointed to cameron. I got off my skate board and handed it to her.
I snuck up behind him and grabbed his shoulders.
He jumped, like seriously jumped and turned around. He laughed when he saw it was me.
"Jumping to Jesus?" I laughed. He just laughed and shook his head. Megan rolled beside is and threw my skateboard at me. The three of us just walked to school and talked about childhood memories.
