How did we end up here

Chapter 10

Heyy guys sorry it's been so long since i updated this story but now i'm back! How have you been enjoying it s far? Hope you'll like this chapter!

There were only 5 more days till my birthday, and I was kind of getting excited for what Alex had planned.  I didn't have his number so I couldn't text him about it but at lunch when they sat with us, I always tried to get something out of him, but he didn't budge. The only thing he told me, is that the surprise would be on Sunday even though my birthday was on Monday, but I didn't mind at all. I agreed with Zane that I could drop Alice off at his house on Sunday and Tommy's nanny would watch them.

The rest of the school days went by fast and thankfully it was already Saturday. My neck was still a little blue from when my dad strangled me, so I again put on a turtleneck and then went to practice. Since the competition, the other girls and I have been friendlier than before, but I wouldn't say we were really friends. The hockey boys had practice the same time as we did and I over heard their trainer tell them that their next game would be next week on Sunday. I made a mental note to tell Maya, just in case Max would forget because she told me, she really wanted to see him play. I just hoped I wouldn't have to go with her, because I really didn't want to watch some guys skating and ramming into each other for an hour, or how ever long these things are.

After practice I changed and went outside to my bike. I saw someone waiting beside it and as I went closer, I saw that it was Zane. "Hey princess.", he greeted me smiling. "-hey, what are you doing here?", I asked him confused. I liked that my relationship with Zane isn't just hate anymore. I sometimes dream about what it would be like to really be with him, but I always dismiss those thoughts. We still kind of hate each other even if we're friendly now.

"Just wanted to tell you: tomorrow meet us all at 5 my house. Dress nicely.", he said I guess giving me the info. "Okay, where are we going?", I asked hoping to get something out of him. "Oh, sorry, can't tell you. Wear a dress", he said smirking at me. I just rolled my eyes at him and wanted to put on my helmet. "You know I also have a motorcycle. I always use it in the summer, but never in winter. It's too cold.", he told me looking at my bike. I felt a bit awkward because he's bike was probably way cooler than mine, but I plan on buying myself a better one once I have the money. "I also wanted to tell you that sadly our tutoring session won't work for me today, but don't worry we'll catch up on it some other time.", he told me looking a bit sad. Almost as if he didn't want to miss our tutoring lesson. We talked for a bit and then I was off.

At home I texted Maya about the hockey game and about what Zane told me about tomorrow. We planned that I would go over to her house, and we would get ready there together. She promised to give me a dress I could borrow because I had no dresses. My dad had left earlier to go to a bar I guess so I had some peace and could study. I had no other plans for the day so after I was done, I watched some TV, helped Alice with her homework and then went to bed.

I woke up from another nightmare, my heart wasbeating really fast and as I touched my face, I felt tears rolling down. I wascrying and I didn't know why. There was no reason for me to cry. What happened,happened a long time ago, so why couldn't I just forget about it. The nightmares were getting worse and worse, and I don't know why. A few weeks ago, a almost never had any, but now I have them almost every day.

I looked at the clock and saw it was only 3:30am so I just laid back and tried to go back to sleep.

In the morning I woke up around 8am and I decided to go to the supermarket to get some food for next week. I bought some bread and fruits. At home I made some scrambled eggs for Alice and I and as I ate, I went to watch TV. Soon Alice also came downstairs to eat and watch some TV with me. After we both were done, I cleaned the kitchen and vacuumed the living room and Alice and I's room.
