Ch. 6 Confusion

"You did what?!" Mary yelled at me standing up, pacing the floor.

"Calm down Mary, its going to be alright. We really like each other." I calmly replied to her embracing her in a hug.

"Oh, you really like each other?! Sure! Sure you do! He just wants in your pants!" she yelled once more breaking off the hug.

"Now you have done it!" I screamed at her and tackled her.

"We love each other! You hear me? We can prove it! Don't you ever! EVER! Say something like that again!" I shouted getting ready to punch her in the face. Of course, my phone had to ring. "Message from Jerry" my phone said loudly. I had forgotten to turn it down.

Lucky for Mary I got off of her and read the text.

'Hey, Iris. I had a great time tonight. I hope you did too. I love you. Very much. :)'

The text made my eyes and face light up. I gently put my phone down, planning to reply later. "Look, Mary, I'm sorry for almost re-arranging your face. But, as my friend I only ask you one thing. Please, just be there for me. Okay?" I said now calm and happy. "Fine, but if he does anything...ANYTHING to hurt you I will most defiantly kill him." she replied now collecting herself off the floor. I giggled "Thanks for the warning. Now what?"

"Well, its kinda late. And you already ate, so how does a movie sound?" she questioned looking through her collection. "Sure! Sounds great to me. Let me go get my pajamas on!" I smiled running up the steps.

I found my bag in the corner of her room and threw it on the bed. I found my superman pajamas and took of my clothes from that day. They smelt of Jerry. A perfect blend of peppermint, chocolate,and some other scent I can not describe. I went to the bathroom, then back down stairs I went.

Mary was on the phone. No surprise to me. That thing was attracted to her all the time. My guess it was Phil. When I hit the bottom she hung up the phone. "That was my mom. She said that she wont be home for awhile. That the trip will take about a month now. Not just this weekend. So, wanna stay with me for this month?" she said all to fast without taking a breath.

"I would love too! Let me call my mom in the morning and see." I said with a smile on my face.

"Iris, he really makes you happy doesn't he?" she questioned me while she put the movie in.

"Yes, Mary. He does." I plainly replied.

"Then I will do my best to support you. Even though he is our teacher..." she said sitting down beside me. She hit play with the remote.

"Thank you. It means a lot." I yawned.

The movie started and I curled up in a blanket. My eyes quickly getting heavy.
