The phone was ringing as I waited patiently for him to pick up. He probably wouldn't answer because of how late it is. Tapping a random beat on my table, I listen to the endless ringing noice until it forward me to voice mail.

Hey Dad, it's me! How you doing? How's Mom? Just checking on how my favorite old man is doing! *laughs* I made an A on the test if you wanted to know.....Call me back in the Morning! Love you

I ended the voice mail. I know for sure he'd call tomorrow.

Walking towards my TV, I bent down, pushing the release button on my DVD player. Nothing was in it. I was expecting to see a CD or something.
Filling the back and front of my pockets I try to feel for that sticky note, I got at the mall. Taking it out of my pocket, I examine it.
After Shining it in light, blowing on it, laying it on top of a black light to see if there was hidden words multiple times

Look at me trying to be an investigator

But sadly I give up

I laughed at myself throwing away the paper in the trashcan.

I wonder where Green was off too? Does he know people?

Leaving my front door unlocked for Greenie, I turn on my bathroom light before getting into bed.

I lay down in my cool, comfortable sheets. Getting under my blanket, I notice that my foot wasn't covered, so I quickly covered it up. I don't want a monster bitting it off. After watching insidious and Scary Movie ,it changed my whole perspective of things.

Closing my eyes, I began hearing things.
You know when you watch something scary at night, you start hearing things. You think it's real but honestly it's from your imagination.

That's what's happening now but without the influence of the scary movie.

Grabbing my phone, i get under the covers fully. I still hear the noise, like someone's walking on my floors.

At the feel of a hand on my leg, it makes me tense up. Then the covers were pulled off of me.

Throwing pillows at the unknown,, I quickly ran out my room, into the living room, grabbing a near by book to throw at the unknown if it comes near me.
I threw the book when I heard movement by my room

A loud grown and moving coming from my room, the unknown doesn't stop. I see it's silloette come out into view.

Oh shit

"Hey... Wasn't expecting that" he laughs fixing his self up. He walks towards me, arms opened wide. He shouldn't be here, at least not right now. He was grinning from ear to ear.

"Hey" I waved, trying to think of ways to make him leave. Green could be here any minute and I don't want them meeting.
"Babe, Didn't you miss me?" Landon says opening his arms wide.
"I did miss you" I say. Key word: Did. I do love him, it's just that he hasn't been acting like he cared. Ten second conversations on the phone is not enough for me. His arms were still opened wide , as I stood there with my arms cross.
"Your so distant babe" he chuckles walking towards me,pulling me into a tight hug. "Oh how I missed you"

I pat him on the back, pulling away.
"I'm tired, Come back later" or never.

"C'mon the night is still young baby!" He says trying to kiss me but I pushed him away.
"I'm tired Landon.."
He shifted his weight to his other leg
"I flew all the way here for you, and your pushing me out. What did I do?"

You know what you did. Don't play!

"We haven't had a decent conversation in the past months Landon. You never have time for me at all. Then your "studying" on the weekends all night long. Who does that? Hmm" I asked calmly not wanting to argue.
"Your just going to push me away when i need you babe"he sadly says picking up his things and leaving. I watch silently as the door closed infront of my face. I didn't mean to be that rude, it just he shows up out of no where and expects to be all touchy touchy when we haven't had a decent conversation. I don't even know if I have feelings for him. I do love him, it's just unexplainable.
I lazily slipped back in my bed, looking out my window. Seeing the beautiful moon shining in the sky.

"Moon, please help me out here" I mumble, closing my eyes.
<~>
"Janae" a voice says shaking me half to death.
"What?" I yell irritated, that someone was waking me up from the best dream ever. I'll tell you about it later :)

"You- your phone is ringing"
I open my eyes to see a pair of green eyes staring at me. My eyes fell Into slits. "What" he says putting his hand up in offense. "Your phone was ringing and ringing...",He drags. "It disturbed my beauty sleep" he dramatically touches his face saying that he would have to sleep for hours to be able to look good all because of me. "It is not my fault" I laugh, poking his dimples. "It looks to me that you had your beauty rest unlike me." He looks me up and down before saying.

"Yeah you need your beauty rest" he jokes, walking out of the room then coming back in
"Shut up Green" I say rolling my eyes. I do look a hot mess but it's whatever.

"Who's calling?" I ask sitting up in my bed, scooting over to make room next by me. He steps closer, opening the covers so he can get in too.

"Your boyfriend!" My eyes went wide. "I'm joking, it's your Dad" he smirks handing me my phone. I shouldn't be worried about anything, he doesn't even know my boyfriend name and it's not saved on my contact list as anything special. If just says his name.

I thanked him, answering my phone.

"Daddy" I cheered into the phone. There was noise in the background. Sounds like he's at work. Perfect!!!

"How's Daddy's baby girl doing?" He asked.
I smile "I'm doing good as always. So...Dad I have a problem!" I dramatically say. Green looks at me. He probably thinks he's the problem, he's definitely not. He's a dime, unlike some people.

"Who is it? Was it.... did you forget to pay your Electric Bill again! How many times have I told you not to wait last minute!!" He lectures. I laugh out loud. Yeah I have forgotten to pay my electric bill multiple times but gosh I'm still not used to paying bills, I'm used to my parents doing it. But I'm in that independent woman phase.

"No dad" I laugh, " winter is coming and I need a car, I don't want to ride in the snow..." I say in a pouty voice. Green Eyes looked relieved, knowing that he wasn't the problem. He lays down in my bed, pulling the covers over his whole body. The only thing I could see was his cute curls.

"I thought my baby girl wanted to be independent", my Dad taunts.

I hate being independent

"I am Independent, c'mon Dad!! This could be an early Christmas present "I beg. I don't even know why I'm begging. I already know he's going to easily hand it to me.

"Okay Babygirl.. I'll see what I can do" he sights,"I'm at walmart, getting some food for the big festival at work. Talk to you later!"

Whoop!Whoop!

"Guess who's getting a new car? Me!" I shoot under the covers pouncing on him.
"Spoiled Daddy's girl" he laughs, pulling me into a hug. "I've never thanked you, so thank you"

"Anything for you Green!", I smile at him. Hugging him back tightly.

"Anything?... Your such a naughty girl Janae" his deep raspy voice says. I get off of him. That British voice of his is too much for me. It could send me into shock for days.

This side of him makes me fill woozy. It doesn't come frequently so it surprises me all the time.

"I might be!" I smirk. Noticing that my phone was on 30% I quickly get off of Green putting it on its charger. I thought it was charging last night.

Which brings me back to my dream. It was just a regular night and Green and I was playing Tic Tac Toe, listening To rock music. Green got bored and wanted to play a new game. So I agreed. Long story short he kissed me and it was amazing even if it wasn't real. It was perfect. The way he held me was just so beautiful. He was beautiful.

Green looks up from what ever he's doing an smiles at me and I smiled back.
"Did you get those shirts and socks I bought you the other day?" I asked, getting out my computer to pay my Electric Bill. Thank god my dad brought it up or I would have never payed it.

"You don't have to buy me anything Janae" he pouts. "I have clothes, I do. Just not here!"

"Where are they then?" I asked raising my brow.

"Let's just say I know someone..." He starts.

"Who do you know?"

-pause-"My Dad"
