Who the hell cares?!

Chapter Fourteen.

ALLIE ROSE.

I don't even get the chance to say bye because I already hear the beeping in my ear from my iPhone telling me that he's hung up. I groan out loud while I flop back onto my bed, I think to myself, 'Have I really done the right thing?'. All I wanted to do was help. Frankie's my best friend and Jimmy's my... well.. my... I'm not too sure actually what we are. Friends.. with... yeah I don't really want to think about that right now. I don't think my parents would be none to pleased with my relationship with Jimmy Cassidy. I don't think Frankie would be either.

This is too difficult. I don't want Jimmy or any of the Cassidy's really to think I'm taking pity on them, because I'm not but I can see how they see it in that way. It just seems that every time I try to do something nice I always do something the complete opposite. Like wrong. Completely wrong. Great.

While I'm wallowing in my own self pity I don't even realize that my mother had walked into my bedroom, asking me twenty questions that I don't even have the chance of answering, because she's talking to me a mile a minute. How am I meant to answer her questions when she doesnt take a breath, or give me a moment.

'Mom... Mom... MOM!' I try getting her attention by waving my hands in front of her face. After a few seconds of doing this I finally manage to get her attention. 'Mom, slow down. You're talking way to fast for me to understand right now. All I caught was something about dinner? Tonight? Maybe it was tomorrow night. I'm not too sure.' Great now I'm doing exactly what I was trying to get my mom to stop. At least I now know where I got it from.

'Allison. What I am trying to say is, is that your father's boss is coming over for dinner tonight. He's also bringing along his very handsome son as well.' She's giving me THAT smile. You know that smile, the one where you know she's up to something but she tries to hide but makes it horribly obvious. Yes. That's the smile she's giving me right now. She's meddling into my life again. Sigh.

'Mom...'

'Now, now Allison, don't jump to conclusions quite yet. He really could be good for you, it's time you met someone.'

But.. I have met someone, just someone you dont like... or well, I know you wont like. This is what I wish I could say to her but I really know I can't. I'd get all those who, what, when, where and how questions which right now I do not want to talk about seen as I dont know myself what our relationship is exactly. I wonder what he's doing right now... is he trying to explain to Frankie and Danny why suddenly all their bills are paid for and why Frankie's University tutition is suddenly full. No. He wont be telling them the real reason at all. He'll be lying through his back teeth like Jimmy Cassidy always does. Did I even get a goddamn thank you from him? No I did not. After everything I gave to him and I dont even get a simple 'Thank You, Allie'. Nope. Nothing.

'Allie...'

Blinking a few things trying to get Jimmy 'Goddamn' Cassidy out of my head I look to my mother, trying to recall what we were talking about. Oh yeah, daddy's boss coming over with his son to dinner together.

'Sorry Mother. What were you saying?'

'Allison, pay attention. What I was suggesting is that you should wear that beautiful purple dress tonight that I brought for you a couple of months ago. Do you remember? It was strapless, really light.' She tells me while rooting through my wardrobe pulling out the exact dress she was talking about. She must of been talking to me about it for a while because I'm pretty sure I shoved it right at the back of the wardrobe. I'm not a fan of dresses personally. 'Ah ha! Here it is. Oh Allison it will look lovely on you. Perfect for tonight'

Although I really do not want to wear this dress, it's absolutely pointless trying to argue with my mother, she always manages to get her way.

'Alright mom, I'll wear it tonight.'
