I put my phone in my pocket and let out a huff, Craig looked at me with concern, "what's up?" He asks, I shrug my shoulders and sigh, "Quinn, she's going over to Mia's, it's not that i don't trust her it's just, she's been known to play around when she's upset and i'm worried she'll mess things up with Mia." Craig looks at the floor for a while then at me, "Hey, i know i haven't know Quinn as long as you" pfft definitely not, i think to myself "but i feel like she's different now, i don't think she'll do anything stupid and if she does, at least she has you there to knock some sense into her." he nudges me with his shoulder and smirk, i chuckle and sigh yeah.

"But we should definitely go pick up Jason." I say while pointing my thumb at the car, Craig nods in agreement and swings his key around his finger, "After you prince~" He says in a jokingly way, i stick my tongue out in a playful way "Gross" We laugh and get in the car.

When we get to Jason's school he hops in and sees that it's only Craig and i today, "Where's Blyfe and Quinn?" I look at Craig with a face of 'What do i say?' he shrugged and made a hand guesser suggesting that i come up with something. We already lied to him once that B was at a club meeting but i feel like if we keep lying to him he'll catch on. "Blythe issss- on a date with Quinn! Yep, gross." i say while pointing my finger into my mouth as to say ima throw up. He laughs and mimics me, when i look over at Craig my goofy smile simmers, He has a face that has anger or like confusion as if saying 'Why would you say that?' I give him a questioning face back, he pull my face close to him, my face got red, "Why would you say that if B and Quinn are broken up? What if Jason brings up the "date" at home??" He asks with a stern tone.

I slap my forehead and groan, sliding down in my seat. 'Sorry' I mouth, he sighs and drives off towards B's house. When we drop off Jason we don't leave till we're sure he's inside safely, once the door closes behind him Craig takes off. I take a few glances at him and then stare at my fingers, fidgeting with them, "So ummm how was school?" i ask in a totally awkward way, Craig laughs under his breath and looks at me through the side of his eye. "You're being awkward." He states to me as if i didn't already know this, "Gahh i know it's just i don't know, i feel like we're rarely alone together so i don't really know what to say or you know." I shrink into my seat, at this rate i'll be sitting on the floor of the car. 

Craig speaks "We were always alone in the cabin, and we were alone earlier." He looks at me, i shake my head "That's different!" I claim and raise my head so i'm staring at the ceiling, there's a stain, "How?" He ask's, i blush and try to push the words out my stupid mouth "Well you know before we weren't. YOU KNOW!!" I shout and groan. He laughs one of his loud amazing laughs. "Dating??" He asks as a genuine question, i nod my head and realize how dumb i probably sound, we pull up at my house and Craig puts the car in park "Hey i know this is different for you, hell, for both of us. But i promise nothing has changed, i'm still me and you're still you right?" He asks me, i nod but we're not, before we were friends, before Craig didn't talk a lot or laugh and i wasn't a mess, we're different now. I look up and see Craig staring at me, i blush and scratch my face. "Uh i should probably get going heh night Craig." I say as i exit the car, he waves bye as i shut the door, i was scared that if i stood in there too long we were gonna kiss, and i might actually die if I did that. I walk into my house and see mama cooking dinner. "Hola mama, what are you cooking?" I ask, she must have gotten home a little early today. "Chile con queso! Papa's favorite mmm" she says, i sniff and sigh, smells good. I notice her looking around for Quinn as if she's gonna pop out from behind me, "Oh Quinn's at Mia's today. Should be home later." i tell her, she nods and gets back to cooking.

I lay on my bed and stare at the ceiling, there are some glow in the dark stickers that went out years ago just hanging in there, Quinn and i did that to help sooth us when we were having a hard time. I remember papa telling us everything would be fine and asked if we wanted to have stars in our room to watch over us. We nodded and he helped us get started, Papa said the stars were our angels and if anything happened they would be there to watch and guide us, I wasn't to keen on that stuff but it always reassured me when Quinn wasn't there for me to talk to. I throw my shirt off and get under the blankets, i hear the sound of the clock tiking as i fall into a dark sleep.

I'm a kid, i look around at my room that looks the same as it did when i fell asleep, i hear crying from the other room, i know whose room it is but i can't remember their name for some reason. I jump out of bed and run to the room but when i get there the door wont open, i rattle the door knob hoping it will budge, nothing. "Hey! Are you okay?? Hello!?" I keep pulling on the knob, why wont it open, i can't get to them "Let me in please!" i demand! A little girl skips by me, she has blonde hair and messed up teeth, Mia, Mia was her name i remember now, she knocked on the door "all you gotta do is knock." she says to me, she knocks and the door opens for her but when i try to follow it closes, "why, why will you let her in but not me?"

I wake up gasping for air, that dream was weird, why was Mia there and why couldn't i get into Quinn's room? I stare at my door and head towards it and to Quinn's room, i stand there and knock on the door, she opens it, "Wassup, did i wake you? sorry." She says, i point inside, "Can i come in?" I ask, she opens the door to let me in, I did what little me couldn't in my dream, I went to go lay on her bed. When i look up at her ceiling i see the dead stars, just like my room, she stares at me confused. "wassup dude?" she asks in a careful way as to not say she's busy. I stare at her then let out a sigh "You would never shut me out right?" i ask her, she looks at me with a pout, "of course not, why?" she asks, i roll into her sheets and cover myself up "I'm taking your bed tonight." She laughs and jumps on top of me "You air head get off." I put my hand over my head dramatically "I cannot, for you have killed me with your heaviness bleh." I play dead, she laughs and pushes me "you oddball."
