I wake up... Still sad just thinking about how much I love Steven and want to stay with him. I go to my closet and out on some pink brand grey sweatpants and a grey honey shirt, I go brush my teeth and hair and put on my slides showing my mismatched socks. I go check on Brook and she is still asleep I start walking downstairs and there is a pounding in my head and my stomach is aching. I go to my moms room and tell her I really don't feel good and Brook is still asleep, and she said we can stay home today because she is off . I go back upstairs and go to brooks foot and wake her to say we aren't going to school today then walk back to my room and lay down. I pull the cover over my cold body and look through Instagram. Looking through my feed I see so many pictures of Steven... I feel like I'm about to cry. I suddenly really don't feel good and feel a lump in my throat. I run to the restroom and stark crying and throwing up in the toilet and my mom hears me and rushes to me. "Are you okay???" My mom asks after a few minutes when I am finished still standing over the toilet. "Yeah I'm fine I just.... Don't feel well." I respond thinking about Steven. "Okay if you need anything just tell me I'll be in my room." she said  walking downstairs. I flush the toilet wash my hands and face and go lay down.

I wake up. What time is it? I think I thought I just took a nap but it's 8:00 pm! Wtf how did I sleep so much?? I check my phone with lots of kik messages from my friends asking why I didn't go to school today but Steven hasn't texted??? Is he okay?? Did he miss today too?? I don't know just thinking to myself. I text Steven
"Hey did you go to school today.." And went through and texted all my friends why I didn't go. It's been 10 minutes??? Why hasn't he texted back? I think. I try calling him three times and no answer. Now I'm worried... I run downstairs and ask my mom "is it okay if I uhhhh... Go for a walk??" "Sure sweetie you slept so long you need to get some energy out!!"she giggles. I run out the front door and go to Stevens house and knock. I knock, knock, knock.. What's going on? Maybe they are no home and at a party or something... I calm down a little and sit at my porch. I call Trenton and ask "Heyy do you know where Steven is or what he is doing??" "No, why?" He asked " just because he isn't answering me and he is not home and I'm just wondering but thanks, bye" I reply and hang up. I walk in the house and ask Brook if she is hungry and she says yeah so I lay on brooks small bed while she is on the floor playing with her dolls. I call my mom while I'm on my moms bed.

End of conversation

I ask brook to go downstairs and see what she wants me to cook us and she goes. I walk downstairs and see her looing in the frigid. "Is it okay if I just cook a oven pizza?" I ask Brook. "Yeah." She said calmly. I cook the pizza and cut it into 6 slices. I eat two and she eats two but not the crust. I put up the leftovers and text my mom they are in the fridge as I'm walking upstairs. I go to my room and put my phone on the charger and turn on the shower water in the restroom. I go to my closet and grab some shorts and a big shirt. I go take a shower, blow dry my hair, brush my teeth, and get dressed in the restroom then walk to my room. I have a text. It's from Steven.... It said "hey babe sorry I was helping my uncle and cousins move because they got kicked out their apartment.. And yeah I was at school, why weren't you there are you okay?" I replied with " oh yeah I'm fine I just felt sick this morning, but I'm better now.". I go downstairs and wash the dishes and basically clean the whole kitchen. I don't know how but I'm tired so I walk upstairs and go straight to sleep. I woke up 2 minutes before my alarm and get dressed and fix my hair into a high ponytail. I go check in Brook and she is ready with a surprisingly good bun. I text Steven good morning and go downstairs and grab a granola bar. I go back to my room and see Steven texted back "good morning beautiful, I am not going to to school for the first two periods but I'll see u later babes😏💘 bye" I smile and then suddenly remember.. I never told my mom about Steven when I told home I was so I just send her a quick text about it and then put my phone on do not disturb mode, get Brook and all our stuff and go out the front door then I lock it. I drop off Brook and walk to my school. The first few classes without Steven were really boring but when he walked in the door we locked eyes and I was so happy to see him. I got us and hugged him then he sat next to me. After he came my day got really good and now it's over and I'm said until I think about even if He didn't want to walk together we would have to because we lived next door lololol. He offered to walk with me to pick up Brook and I said if he wanted to. We picked her up and started walking. It was silent... Too silent. After we go to the middle of our houses me and Steven kissed and went home. As soon as I walk in I question Brook " what's going on?" She replies with " nothing.." " come on Brook just tell me I won't be mad." I say trying to help however she is feeling. " I don't know I just don't want to say the wrong thing around Steven because I don't want to embarrass you." She said and makes me smile. I hug her and say " aweee no matter what you do you won't embarrass me, say whatever you want in front of him he can deal with it lol." We walk in and I watch Netflix in the living room and Brook plays on her iPad not the living room floor. I put on " The boy in the striped pajamas"
And at the end I was crying and Brook came up to me and hugged me and said " are. You okay??" Sounding scared. " I giggle it's tears dripping down my face and explain to her why I was crying of how sad the movie is and then goes to her room. It's 10:45 and I go to my room and lay down then feel asleep.
