"Oh, you're on a new book." Mrs. Pierce says, smiling as I looked up.

"Yes ma'am. I already finished with the other one." I told her.

"Hm.. what's this one called?" She asked, as she sat next to me on the couch, I put the bookmark back into the book before saying, "Crush by Tracey Wolff. She recently came out with a new book, called I believe... Cherish? Yeah Cherish. I'm going to ask my grandma for it as a graduation gift." 

"Why not get it now?" She asked, as I looked at her before saying, "Well.. she isn't here and I don't necessarily have the money for it." I gave her a shrug.

"Do you not realize who you're talking to?" She asked, with a huge smile, "Why don't we have a girls day tomorrow, it's Sunday, so when we get out of church, I can come pick you up, we can go shopping for new supplies, new clothes, a fresh start at your new school." 

"I-I can't have you do that..." I said low, feeling guilty.

"Please.. I insist." She said, "You're like family now." She brought her hand up as she moved a strand of hair behind my ear. "Besides... Prom is coming up around the corner, a month from now." She smiled, "I'm sure you want to go dress shopping or at least look." I felt myself shut down, as I looked away from her, "What is it, Hon?" She asked. 

"N-Nothing.. it's probably going to sound stupid." I told her as I looked to the right, as she said, "Nothing is stupid... what's wrong?" 

"This time of the year you'd think you can celebrate it with your parents. Or at least your mom.." I told her, as I looked at her as tears filled my eyes, "But... I don't have any. So I expected to celebrate it with my grandma.." 

"I'm sorry honey." She said, as she pulled me to a tight hug. I tried to not sob, but I failed, as I cried, I kept apologizing. I hate feeling weak, hate crying around or on people. "It's okay to cry." She stated as she rubbed my back. I probably let myself cry on her shoulder for a good five minutes before calming down. "How about we watch some movies and have a cheat day with some ice cream?" She asked me, as I let out a small laugh before nodding.

Waking up to someone shaking me as a deep voice said, "Ana..." Sebastian. I woke up fast as I looked around, realizing I fell asleep watching the movie. "I'm having friends over. If you want to sleep, go upstairs." He said, watching me as I rubbed my eyes, before I grabbed my phone to see it's 12PM. I laid back down as I pulled the blanket over my head, "Did you hear me?" He asked, ripping the blanket from off my head.

"Gosh, yes! Leave me alone!" I argued, as I watched him giving me a look. I rolled my eyes before getting up, grabbing my phone and my book. "Still a jerk." I snapped, before leaving the room and went upstairs. 

Since I was up, I might as well get ready. Seeing that Mrs. Pierce messaged me telling me that church was almost done. I decided to do a quick shower, then I got out and wrapped the towel around my body, as I brushed my teeth.

When I got back into my room, I opened the closet as I walked in, flipping through the hangers, not knowing what to wear. After a good minute, I decided on some black ripped jeans and a fitted t-shirt, along with matching undergarments. Before taking my towel off, dried myself off, then wrapping the towel in my hair. I then put on the bra and underwear, before slipping on my clothes.

I then put on some matching white socks, before putting on my Nike shoes. I then took the towel out of my hair, then ruffling my hair in the towel. After, I grabbed my hair brush and brushed out my hair, before sitting at the vanity, grabbing out two rubber-bands and plugged in my blow-drier. I then turned on the hair drier and dried my hair. 

Then I brushed my hair again, before parting my hair and clipped the right side. After parting my hair, I start to do a French braid, and had the French braid thick on my head, before doing it tight after past my scalp. It took me about 40 minutes to do this, as I kept messing up and or it'd be uneven, plus because my hair was so long. I left a little piece by my temples out of my hair. 

I lift my phone, pressing on the home button, I saw that Mrs. Pierce messaged me saying how she was here. Which was sent 35 minutes ago, and another followed 25 minutes ago asking if I still wanted to go. I replied back telling her, 'Yes! I'm coming down!'.

I sighed as I looked in the mirror, before applying some minty chap-stick, then went downstairs. "Hey Anastasia." A voice that I never thought I'd hear again. 

"Ethan." I replied as attention was on me, my eyes went to Ethan as I noticed he had a couple bruises on his face.

"Why do you look dressed up for?" Sebastian asked, as I looked at him. 

"Going out." I told him, as I saw a hint of anger or jealousy? "Going out where?" He asked.

"Does that matter?" I asked, crossing my arms.

"Is it a boy?" He asked, what is with these questions? Should I mess with him a little? Yes.. I wanted to, "And what if it is?" I asked him, keeping my arms crossed.

"Well you can tell him plans changed." He stood up.

"Hmm... let me think." I said, "Oh! How about.. no." 

"Anastasia." He said, "Do not play games with me." He said, coming over to me, as I stood tall, looking up at him before saying, "Sebastian.. I'm not playing any games. I will be going to the mall.. where I will be meeting him at." I was trying so hard to not laugh or even smile.

"Then I will be going with you." He snapped, "Because whoever he is.. is not going to have you." 

"Oh! There you are! You ready?" Mrs. Pierce said, as Sebastian looked at her, then me, then back to her, "No, you're not going, we are having a girls day. But don't worry, we'll be back for dinner." I found myself bursting out laughing as Sebastian was fuming. 

"You asshole." Sebastian snapped, "We will be having a conversation when you come back." He said low, before Mrs. Pierce came up, taking me from him as I was laughing walking out of the house.

This was the first time in a while, that I actually laughed.
