Musically Problematic

Chapter 10: Grounded

I walk up my driveway and into my house.

"I'm home again!"

Sophie's POV:

I walk up to my bedroom hoping to avoid my family since they didn't seem to hear my warning. I open my door and see both of my parents sitting on my bed, arms folded and angry expressions on their faces.

"Where were you?"

"Out..."

"Where?"

"The park..."

"Who with?"

"Mys...A friend...acquaintance..."

"Who?"

"I told you an acquaintance...just some person that goes to my school..."

"Who?"

"You sound like owls...I already told you...I was at the park blowing steam at a friend...acquaintance from my school."

"That's it! You're grounded!"

"Why? Because I needed some fresh air?"

"No, because you left without telling us where you were going and especially after we just picked you up from the hospital and you were told to rest...and now you aren't being truthful with us."

"I can't rest with everyone hovering over me like I'm younger than Bryce!"

"We are just looking after to you!"

"Well I don't want you to look after me! I was barely hurt! You know what? I'm going out again! I can't be here!"

"Sophie Savannah Sugg sit down this instant!"

"Bye!"

I run down stairs and outside, pulling out my iPhone and dialling Calum's number. I continue walking towards the park. He picks up after three rings.

"Hey Cal."

"Hey Sophie. How are you feeling?"

"Fine! Just can I come over?"

"I'm actually at Michael's place at the moment...but he says it's okay for you to join us."

"Thanks, where does he live?"

"46 Acheron Road. How far is that from your house?"

"That's 5 streets from here...could you guys maybe meet me at the Choncè park, that's near where I live."

"Wait...don't you live in Penny and Kate's street?"

"Yeah, why?"

"I know someone who lives near there and goes to their place pretty much every day, I'll see if he can go down your street and meet up with you. He knows the way here also...it gives us an excuse to hang out with him for once too, without Penny nagging him about it or dragging him away."

"Ok, thanks."

"It's alright. Anything for you. Michael says hi and that he can't wait to see you."

"Tell him I said hi and that I feel the same way...see you soon."

"See ya."
