------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It was the first day of my 10 day suspension, and I was enjoying it. I didn't wake up till 12. I checked my phone to see that I had a text.

It was from "Aiden:)". He put the smiley there cause my contact in his phone had one, so "it was only fair", he said.

I opened the message and it said, "Good morning Kaylee. I'm gonna miss you today /: try not to have too much fun at home without me".

The text made me smile, which hurt cause my face was still bruised. I decided to reply and say, "ohh you know I can never have too much fun without you (;"

Of course he was in school, and if my memory was correct, he was in Gym class. So, he wouldn't be able to reply right now.

After My parents got home yesterday, they told me that ow as grounded for a month for fighting. Then my dad pulled me to the side and told me he wasn't mad, that he was surprised that I got in a fight.

My parents were come rely different. My dad, well actually he's my step dad, he got into a lot of trouble while he was in school. He was known as "a trouble maker". So, he was more relaxed about the whole situation.

My mom was a different story. She was one of those girls who never got in trouble, and kept good grades. So, she doesn't understand my decision to "result to violence", as she put it.

She was really mad, unlike my dad, but my dad talked her into letting me keep my cell phone. His reason for letting me keep it was, "while she's suspended and were at work, if she needs help, and you take away her phone, how is she supposed to get help?"

I thanked my dad privately, and he just smiled at me and waved it off.

I made myself some breakfast and turned on the living room TV. I didn't like breakfast food all that much, so I just made toast with butter and jelly on it.

I finally found something to watch on TV. It was the movie, Titanic. I loved that movie, and it had just started. Half way through, Aiden texted me back and said, "sorry, gym class. How are you feeling?"

"If your talking about my face, it still hurts some. But I'm enjoying my first day off. How's school?", I replied.

He texted me back and said, "school is as boring as ever. Haha".

I told him I was sorry that he was bored, and he told me not to be. It was 3:30, and my mom texted me and said, "ur dad and I have 2 work till 7 2nite. Ur sister went 2 a friends"

I told her, "okay". Then I heard a knock at my door. Before I got to open it, it opened by itself. Aiden walked in and said "hey beautiful. Your face looks better than it did yesterday".

He looked at me with this sympathetic look. Then he put everything he brought with him in my kitchen. He pulled out a bag of ice and told me to put it on my face.

I did as Aiden told me too, and he pulled me over to my couch. We sat down and he stared at me. He looked a little sad, so I asked him, "what's wrong?"

He looked me in the eyes and said, "nothing's wrong".

I could tell he was lieing. So I took his hand and looked him in the eyes and said, "I can tell when your lying to me Aiden. Tell me the truth".

"Well, I just.. I hate to see you like that" he said pointing to my face, "it makes me feel bad for you. I feel like I need to do something for you".

I took his other hand and said, "you are doing something for me. Your being a friend to me through this whole thing. And you even brought me ice. I don't know many people that would do that".

Aiden smiled at me and then tackled me, pinning me to the ground under him. He was stronger than me, so I couldn't get up. I laughed and asked him, "what was that for?"

He looked down at me, cause I was still pinned to the ground under him, a said, "ohh nothing. Just being random". He laughed.

After we both stopped laughing, we stared into each others eyes. His eyes were so pretty. A sudden thought flashed through my head. I wanted him to kiss me. Then I realized, if he kisses me, everything will change.

When I finally realized he was gonna kiss me, I said, "how about I make you some food. Are you hungry?"

Aiden was less than an inch away from kissing me. I saw a slight flash of sadness in his eyes. I could tell that he really wanted to kiss me. He smiled and said, "how about I make you some food? I'm an amazing chef!"

I laughed and said, "I'd like that". Then he went into the kitchen, and started preparing dinner.

When I tried to sneak in to find out what he was fixing, he saw me and made me leave, saying that I was "not allowed to witness the amazing cooking skills".

Whatever it was, it smelled good.
