Perfect Summer

Chapter two

Chapter two-------------------------------------------------------------------

I sat there and stared at the request for a moment or two. Do I accept or decline? Mum decided that for me when she shouted me down for dinner, I quickly declined the request, after all I didnt want the worlds biggest douche bag looking at what I share with my friends and family plus Mols, Sally and Bella would ask me how the most popular boy in school knew my name and also wanted to be my 'facebook friend'.

"I was just about to shout you down again, your dinner was going cold!"

"Sorry mum, I just had to finish off something upstairs, I've got quite alot of home work tonight."

"You have all weekend to do your homework!"

"Actually you're right, after I've finished dinner I think I'll go for a ride, I haven't been down to the yard all week."

Riding Polo always cleared my mind, hes like my own personal therapy. Pepper is unofficially my mums horse so I very occassionally ride him as he can be quite a pain on trail rides. I remember when I first got Polo, I nagged my mum and dad for years that I wanted a pony, I've always loved horses since I was small and when they finally decided that I was old enough to care for a pony I fell in love with a small fluffy grey pony that was soon to be named Polo. The only advantage of being 5'3 is that I can still ride him after owning him for four years

Beep.Beep

"Arghhhhhhhhhh" I screamed, making Polo jump and the nearby birds fly away. Can no one leave me at peace for two minutes! I quickly scanned my phone:

"CHARLIE EVANS WOULD LIKE TO BE YOUR FRIEND."

Oh pee off I thought to myself, do you honestly not get the idea that I don't want to be 'friends' since you barged into me, broke my new ipod and then hardly apologised.

"hmmmppffff" I murmured as I declined for the second time. I put my phone away and pushed Polo into a canter, racing back towards the yard.

It was approaching seven o'clock when I got back to The Crescent Fold and the light was starting to disappear over the horizon. As soon as I sat down Henry came racing over to sit on my lap and give me a cuddle whilst I watched the news unfold, he smelt a bit funny and had a really boney bum but I though I best make the most of it because in a few years he won't want to hug his big sister.

"Hen I've got to go upstairs now."

"Ok sammie!" He obediently replied sliding off me.

"Can I come sit in your room with you, I promise I'll be good!" He wailed.

"Ok ok but if I'm on the phone or on cam to any of my friends, you have to extra quiet?"

"I will, I will!" Henry exclaimed.

I cam'ed Mol that night, we mostly talked about her and James; their relationship is too complicated! Apparently lots of rumour have been going around school that at Stacey's party last week Molly snogged her ex boyfriend Ashley Thorpe. Most of the time Mols would just shrug it off but she seemed really on edge about it all. Like I said I never attend these parties but I had the distinct impression that she wasn't telling the truth.

"Oh smidge I don't know what to do! James won't speak to me because he thinks its true and I've heard more gossip that he's going to dump me!"

I seriously wanted to disconnect and tell her to man up but that wouldn't have gone down too well so I took a deep breath and thought of the old war moto of 'KEEP CALM AND CARRY ON.'

"Molly don't be so silly of course he doesn't believe the rumours! You've been together for almost eight months! He wouldn't be stupid enough to let you go over a pathetic rumour thats not even true!"

"Hmmmm yeah I guess I just don't want to lose him over something so silly." She said coolly.

"Anyway look I've got to go to bed now Mols its pretty late! I think you should too theres no point in being sat up fretting! Night love you!"

"Love you too Samara!"

Thank god I don't have a boyfriend I quietly thought to myself and then I fell into a fitful sleep.
