-I promise I will call you..
This morning we talked about how hard it will be to communicate. I won't be able to call him. He will have a lot of stuff to prepare, meetings and stuff and if anyone knows we are together.. that maybe costs Alison.
Knowing that he has a relationship with a 18 year old girl won't make it any good to get Alison.
That's it..
We said goodbye... kissed a lot.. and left me..
He didn't left me. He just had to leave me for a while..
That's what I need to tell myself every day for now on.

Dad came home at night and I told him everything about Steve. I had to.

-Maybe it's for the best, Hayley
He says to me like me and Steve have broke up.

-We didn't break up, Dad.

-I know but maybe you both needed that. Some time.

Some time?? Is that what I really want?? I wanna be with Steve. Today, tomorrow and every year.
Since Lucas died, I have never thought about how my life would be after him.
It's been a long time since I felt, Alive.

-Yeah.. you are right Dad.
He is not, but he will never understand.

-So.. how was the trip??
I asked him.

-Really busy. One meeting after the other.

-You called your mother..?
He asked me. This is so weird.

-Of course I did.

-How is she..?

-We didn't have time to talk. Her friends were making her a surprise party.

-That's good.

-Yeah..

One Week later, everything seems to go normal. Biology finally starts to seem easier, thanks to mr Jasper. After all these private lessons we had all week, I found out that he is not creepy at all. He helped me a lot, and keeping my mind to Biology, besides Steve... helped another part of me.

-So.. let's see how did you get.
Mr Jasper starts saying while he was sitting in front of my desk, holding the paper with exercises he gave me.

-How bad is it..?
I asked him curious. He is been staring at my paper for more than 10 minutes.

-Not at all. It's actually, good.

-Come on.. Just say it. It's not the first time that I will get 3/10..

-What if I tell you you got 7/10???

-WHAT?
I yelled surprised.

-That's sure my first time am getting 7/10. Tell me that you are messing with me.. aren't you??

-Why would I?? You see??? You are making a progress over here!!

-I can't believe it!!
I said smiling.

-Can I.. see it??
I must see it!

-All yours.
He gives me the paper and I couldn't believe in my eyes.. or in myself.
