It was peace and quiet for a long time, until Mila's phone rang and woke her up. She checked her phone tiredly and panicked, it was her parents. They called her so many times. She assumed everyone fell asleep while watching the movie even tho it's supposed to be horror. Mila realized she fell asleep on Dylan's shoulder. She didn't want to wake him so she slowly got up.
She went to the bathroom and called her mom. When Kira picked up she started rambling "oh thank goodness you picked up, are you okay? Where are you? Why haven't you been answering my calls?"
"Slow down mom" Mila cut her off. "I'm at Harper's, I told you she invited me to her sleepover and we fell asleep while watching a movie" She answered. "Oh. I thought something happened to you. And you sneaked out again?" Kira asked.
"Oh sneaking out? Me? Nice joke mom, I simply just walked out the front door " Mila said smirking. "Oh shut it Mila, your father is furious. now's not the time for your stupid jokes" Kira said sternly.
"Okay okay. I'm on my way home now just tell him not to kill me when I get there" Mila said. "Oh you best hope I don't kill you before your father does young lady." Her mom rambled.
"Ouch okay cya mom" Said Mila. She hung up the phone and washed her face in the sink to get rid of her sleepy face.
She knew her mom wasn't serious because let's be honest, she's a literal princess for her mom. Mila and her dad don't get along that well but he's still her father so she (somewhat) respects him . She goes to exit Harper's house but then she realised. 'oh god.. I forgot about dylan'
Mila has no idea how she's gonna get him to hide in her room without her parents noticing. She went over to the living room quietly. "Dylan" she whispered so only he would hear. "Dylan we need to go, wake up!" She whispered again. He rolled over to his side, facing away from Mila "go away" Dylan said in a voice which sounded like he hadn't talked for a thousand years.
"Dude my parents are gonna murder me get your ass up before I drag you out" Mila Whispered in her usual "threatening" voice. Dylan finally sat up not wanting to die in his sleep by this crazy girl Infront of him. They walked out of the house and got into Mila's car. "How will I get to your room without your parents catching me?" Dylan asked.
"Uhh I don't know.. I'll figure something out when we get there" she said.
After a painful silence of 10 minutes they finally reached home. "Okay so you wait here and I'll go inside first. I'll tell them whatever I need to say and I'll distract them but if it doesn't work I'll have to wait until they go to bed. Then I'll come get you, okay?" Mila explained.
"How long..will it take?.." Dylan tried asking hesitantly. Mila gave him a death glare and he knew to shut his mouth. She got out the car and opened the door trying not to act suspicious. Her parents were on the couch talking, more like waiting to murder Mila. They stopped talking when they spotted her trying to tip toe to her room. "Stop right there" Fred, Her father said. She rolled her eyes but they couldn't see it cuz she wasn't facing them or she would've been 6 feet under. "Yes?" She asked in a sickening sweet voice. "How dare you disrespect us?" Fred said.
"I didn't disrespect you? I only went to my friends house to have fun." She replied. "Don't talk to your father like that Mila." Her mom warned her. "You are grounded. You weren't allowed to go out yet you still did" her dad went on. She didn't want to argue so she just kept quiet. " This better not happen again or you can say goodbye to your friends" Fred said storming off. "Sorry sweetheart but we know what's best for you. Go to bed now it's getting late." Kira said before going to her room. Mila sighed and went outside to get Dylan. Only she couldn't see him in the car. 'bruh I'm seriously gonna murder this guy'
Mila opened her car door and saw Dylan sleeping in the backseat. 'oh' she shook him awake "can you not sleep all the time and let's go, the coast is clear" he followed her to her room and things got awkward slightly. "Well um you can use the bathroom I'm going to bed" Said Mila and. She didn't need to change cuz she was wearing PJ's so she just hopped on her bed.
Dylan went to the bathroom. Mila was lost in her thoughts trying to figure out why he acted like that earlier today. His hand shook like crazy but maybe he was having a panic attack? At least that's what she thought. He came back and set his sleeping bag on the floor. Dylan layed down on the sleeping bag and stared at the ceiling. They both couldn't sleep because well they slept at Harper's already. "You need to go back to your house soon, you can keep hiding from your parents." Mila broke the silence.
He didn't answer but she knew he was listening. "I'm sure they aren't that mad at you? They're probably worried. don't you think you should explain the truth to them?" She now turned to face him but he was still staring at the ceiling not saying a word. "Are they that strict?" Still no answer.
"Dylan?" She asked. "You don't know what they'll do when their 'perfect son' makes a mistake " He said not looking at her. "What's wrong?" She asked. She doesn't know why she cares but she can't help but ask. "Why do you care? Why should I tell someone who hates me?" Dylan finally looked at her, he looked furious but his eyes spoke a different way. He was 'hurt?' then it hit her.
*Earlier that day*
"Mimi?" Destiny said. "Yea?" Mila answered. Destiny and Harper both looked at eachother and Destiny nodded at Harper to continue. "Do you like Dylan?" Harper questioned. "Huh where did that come from?" Mila said, confused. "Idk we just feel a tension between you two" Destiny said. "No I don't like him if anything I probably hate him." She said.
*End of flashback*
"Oh. So you heard our conversation..?" Mila said solemnly. He didn't answer. "I'm sorry I didn't mean that I don't hate you i just said that so they would stop annoying me." She said hoping he'd believe her. "I don't know what to do I've decided to trust you because I have no where else to go, sure I will visit my parents soon but I'm not ready for their outburst. If you don't want me here you don't need to pretend" He told her looking in her eyes, dead serious.
"I do want you here i mean I want to help and besides it was me and my friends that found you we want to know what's going on, I'm sure destiny would rather die then not know about what really happened. And I want to know, um I wanna make sure you're..okay." She said. He smiled slightly at her words but quickly shrugged it off.
"I hope I can trust you and your friends. And trust me I really wish I knew what's going on with me but I have no idea" Dylan said. It was silent for a while not the uncomfortable one tho, this time it was a comfortable silence.
They realized they were staring at eachother for too long, they flushed and broke eye contact. "Um well we should sleep we have school tomorrow" Mila said awkwardly. "Right yea. Wait am I coming to school with you?" Dylan asked.
"If you'd rather be alone here then-" "No never mind I asked let's go to sleep" he cut her off. After a few minutes they fell asleep, not knowing what awaits them in the future.
