Save Me From Myself (sequel to "My Neighbor")

Chapter 10

Chapter 10| Aurora
I don't know what it is, I just feels like Zander doesn't love me anymore, it's a feeling in my chest and it's making me want to punch something. It's hard to explain.

I pretended to fall asleep so Zander would fall asleep also but I just did that so I could be alone. I unwrap his arms from me and walk out of my room. I grab some blankets and take them to the living room.

I look for a pillow around the house but sadly I found nothing so I decided to skip the pillow and use the couch's armrest as a pillow.

My tummy starts grumbling so I go to the kitchen and decide to make some macaroni and cheese at 2 in the morning.

While the water starts to heat up I grab the remote and put on Netflix because I feel like watching a movie, but I don't know what.

The water starts getting hot so I set the remote on the couch and head to the kitchen to cook the pasta. I then decide to make the sauce, I'm not one of those people that like the mac and cheese from a box, I like to make it all by scratch, I'm weird I know.

I finish my mac and cheese and pour it into a bowl. I look in the cabinet for some koolaid and make some koolaid for myself. I take everything to the livingroom and start searching through Netflix.

I decide to watch mean girls for like the five billionth time and I still love it. Yes, I need help I know, first I don't like simple mac and cheese from the box and I'm not tired of mean girls I get it.

I start craving so many things. Caramel popcorn, pizza, chocolate, sushi, ughgghhhgh Jeebus Christ enlighten me with all my cravings.

I finish mean girls then yawn signaling for me to go to sleep. I cuddle up into the couch and instantly fall asleep.

I wake up to Zander's eyes staring at me "What the hell?!" I yell as I cover myself with the blankets and turn around "Why did you leave me while we were sleeping?" He asks

"I woke up and couldn't fall back asleep so I came to the living room to watch some Netflix and I just fell asleep here" I lied. "Babe, you have Netflix on your TV, what's wrong?" He asks

"Nothing, I didn't want to watch Netflix in my room cause I didn't want to wake you up" I say "It's better than making me worry, when I woke up I thought you were kidnapped again or some shit I started to worry" He says.

"I'm sorry, I didn't think that through" I say "Don't do that to me again, alright" He says as he cups my cheeks and plants a kiss on my lips "I won't" I say and smile.

"What do you want to do today?" He asks "How about we just stay home and relax?" I say in more of a question. Zander's phone vibrates and he checks it "Sorry, I can't do that today I uh have to help my dad with a few things, you know how it is" He says.

"Oh, yeah it's alright" I say. He kisses my cheek and puts on some shoes. "I'll be back soon" He says "Okay, bye bye" I say then he leaves. I take a deep breath and get up to my dad's room.

He's laying on his bed watching TV "Do you need something Aurora?" He asks "I just came to see how you are" I say "I'm alright, did you sleep fine?" He asks. I nod. "That's great!" he says.

"Do you need anything?" I ask "No no, nothing at all, thank you" He says "Okay, if you need anything i'll be here" I say. He nods and I walk out of his room.

I walk into my room and decide to look good today. I do my makeup, and put on some black skinny jeans with a baby pink kinda tight crop top. I grab some leather boots and keep my hair straightened. I apply some nude lipstick and look in the mirror.

I look at my reflection and see a beautiful girl with long blonde hair and big, beautiful eyes. I wonder how many people I can fool to believe I love my life and I live like a queen.

I grab my phone, and my purse and look for my dad's car keys. I don't know were I'm going, but I will find out.

I walk out and here a familiar voice "Aurora?!". I look up and see Austin. I smile and run up to him and give him a big hug "Ohhh how i've missed you!" I say as he hugs me tightly.

"I heard what happened oh my god are you okay?!" He says "I'm alright don't worry!" I say. He checks my face along with my hands and arms "I missed you oh my god!" He says.

I lightly laugh "Aw I know I know you already told me" I say "Oh my god where are you going?" He asks "Honestly, I don't really know" I say.

"How about I take you to the mall? How does that sound?" He says. I smile "If that's not a problem then sounds good!" I say

"Aurora stop! Of course it's not a problem come on give me your keys i'll drive"
