Allison's Pov....     

My friends dropped me and Connor off home. His mom must've seen us go inside because not 2 minutes later, she came running into the house crying her eyes out. She hugged Connor and I before speaking.

"Oh my goodness! I was so worried! I didn't know where either of you were! Oh, where did you go? Are you hurt? Why did you leave? Oh never mind, I'm so glad you two are okay!" She cried, hugging us again.

I explained what had happened, while saying my new cat did it and that Connor took care of me. She smiled and said okay.

"Well, I'm going to start lunch then, what would you two like, hmm?" She beamed.

Connor types fast into his phone before it speaks his food choice.

"Mom, can we have spaghetti? Because I haven't had spaghetti in a long time and I would like some if that's okay with you!"

Ms. Franta laughs before nodding her head and walking out the door. Connor and I watch some TV and play two rounds of the board game Sorry. He beat me both times. After a while he asks if I would like to come over and hang with him there. I happily agree and my heart flutters. Wait. No. Bad Allison. Stop. No!

Connor's Pov...

When she agreed to come over and wanted to get up and do my happy dance. Man, she's so gor-. No. I mentally slap myself before leading her over to my house. We go upstairs and I can smell the spaghetti. Mmmmm. Yummy. Allison and I sit on my bed, well, I do. She falls off. She starts laughing and I Smile widely, trying to compress my laughter.

"Well, I'm a klutz hahaha! That was funny. Let me try this again" She smiles, climbing on more carefully.

I just watch her. She's so much like her and it kinda scares me but at the same time, it makes me happy. I remember how full of life she was. Maybe this move won't be so bad after all...

"Connor. Connor? CONNOR!!!!!" Allison yells while laughing as I come back into reality.

I type in my phone.

"Sorry, I was just thinking, hey, could I call you Ally? Or no?" I smile because that sounded stupid and super cheesy.

"Hmm, no one calls me that, but sure. It can be your special nick name for me, Con De Bon." She smile. Ugh, that smile.

"LUNCH IS READY YOU TWO! COME AND GET IT!" Mom yells.

Ally and I give each other a look and the race begins. We run out of the room and down the stairs. However, we must have gotten to close because by the time we got to the bottom, we were rolling on top of each other. I felt my back hit the ground and Ally fall on top of me. We stared into each others eyes, and I swear she was leaning in, and so was I. We're going to do this. What am I doing?

"What was all that noise?"

Ally jumps up and holds a hand out for me. I take it gratefully as Ally replies to my mother.

"We, uh, were racing and we fell down the stairs hahah"

Mom shakes her head and walks away laughing. We sit at the table. Ally sat next to me and my mom across from me. I took one look at then plate in front of me and devoured it all. I look up and see Ally and my mom trying to conceal their laughter. But when I look at then with a confused look, they can't take it anymore.

"Y-you're......face!......You...You have...Stuff on......your face!!!" Ally says between her adorable laughter.

I pull out my phone and use my camera to see my face. Sure enough, I have spaghetti sauce everywhere. My mouth, my chin, my forehead, and even my hair! I smile brightly and use my napkin to clean myself off, but not before Ally can take a picture of me and show mom while they laugh. I smile and type in my phone.

"Dinner was amazing mom, as you can probably tell. Thank you!"

She smiles and says no problem. I go upstairs for a while and when I come back down this is what I hear.

"No, it's fine. I can stay home alone Ms. Franta"

"I insist! You can sleep in the guest room until your mother gets home with your baby sister next week!"

"Okay, thank you very much! I will help around the house too!"

"Hahaha, sweety, you do that anyways, and to this day i don't know why!"

After that, Ally gets up and walks out the front door, probably to get some clothes. I walk into the living room and mom says that Ally will be staying with us for a week. I nod, not letting her know I was eavesdropping. Ally comes back with a bag and says hi and I wave. She walks upstairs and I follow. The guest room is right next to mine and I watch as she walks into it and shuts the door. I'm about to knock when she calls through the door.

"One second Connor. I'm getting changed. Then you can come in."

I lower my hand and go into my room to change. I take off my shirt and Change into some basketball shorts.  I walk out to see the guest room door open and I walk in and smile at the sight. Allison is sitting on the bed playing in her phone wearing pink and white pj bottoms and a gray tank top. She looks up,  sets her phone down, and pats the bed next to her. I go and sit down and we talk for 2 hours about everything and nothing. I look a my phone before typing and see that it's 1am. That's not late for me, but it's been a long day. I type my reply and she sits quietly waiting.

"Hahaha yeah, I totally agree! Hey, it's 1. I think I'm going to go to bed. You look really tired too. It's been a long day. Get some sleep Ally." She nods and yawns in response and I go to my room. Right before I climb in, I decide it's too hot and take my shorts off, leaving me in nothing but my boxers. I climb into bed and let sleep take me over.
