Teen Stardom: Porsche

Chapter 10

Louis was so different looking when he was all done, I had never seen his fur so short.

I texted a picture to Trent and Jake, saying I would be coming back soon.

T: Woohoo! He's looking good! :)

J: Niiiiiiice! Mind getting something for dinner tonight on way home? Will pay back, I promise

So I got Louis back in the car with some water as I sat with him, looking out at the sea.

The dog finished with the bowl and put his head on my leg, and out of pity I stayed still for an extra five minutes before deciding it was time to go.

I was able to get some stuff from the shop on my way up along with more ice cream.

But for whatever reason, I stayed out longer than intended.

When I had finished with Louis and the shops, it was just 1 PM.

And I thought Trent wouldn't mind if I took the dog for a walk, without telling him.

Kidding!

I actually got distracted.

.........

I got her call when I had driven past Dunbeag, going down to the village and parked outside the charity shop to answer.

Hey, Meg."

"Yo." She sounded tired, and a little upset.

"Is everything okay?"

"Yeah, I just wanted to tell you I made it home okay."

"Alright, I'm just about to take Louis out on a walk.

"Okay, but maybe we could talk later? Like maybe tonight?"

"I'll call you, or you call me. I don't actually know."

Megan actually laughed a little bit.

"Text me when it's okay, I don't know where you plan on sleeping."

"Alrighty then, talk to you later."

We hung up, and I switched off the engine before getting Louis out and on the leash.

I was an idiot, I know. Meg was the biggest distraction you could ever throw my way and I'm pretty sure if Louis wasn't very good at tugging on the leash I would have forgotten who I was walking.

It became a longer walk than intended, because somehow I had gone way past the old pier.

I checked my phone; half 2.

And below that? A crap ton of text messages.

T: Where are you?

I: Is everything okay?

A: Hope nothing happened, everyone is getting nervous here

J: You better be alright

So yeah, I was in trouble.

And to make my situation even worse, I did take my sweet time getting home.

Because I was scared about being yelled at, or kicked out, or literally anything else that wasn't good.

I worry about a lot of things and make dumb decisions, that's one thing to know about me.

........

First person to hug me when I was finally back; Trent.

"Where the fuck were you? Never mind! I don't want to know, just thank god you're okay!"

And I was wondering if he had spoken to Darryl or something, because he sure was acting like him a lot.
