                 I walk into the car, I closed the door. I take out my phone, and started to text Edgar, as he was still waiting for my answer. I tried to pick out the pros and cons, the things that could happen, and the consequences and responsibilities for the relationship. I was worried, and I felt as if that very moment, the trust, soon became broken. I replied, and I said 'yes' but, I couldn't believe it. My parents 'perfect' little girl, wasn't perfect anymore. I actually lied to them. I mean't to tell them about this, but the words didn't come out, I tried to text them the situation, but I just couldn't press the send button. I didn't know what was happening, the excitement of my first boyfriend was amazing, and then there was the shadow of myself forming, I felt it, which didn't really please me.

             Edgar texts me again, saying how he had to go, that we would talk later, that he loves me, then that word, that one stupid little word, had so much of an affect on me. It had me stunned, My body went numb, my stomach turning. So sickening, but, I LOVED IT !! I started to doze off, dreaming, and smiling like a dork. My family was puzzled, asking me why I was so happy out of no where. That's when I continued piling up the lies. I exclaimed 'Oh I'm just excited for the fight, who do you think is going to win tonight?'. As we all argued in a playful way of who would win, we finally arrived to my step dad's family's house. It was RAMBUNCTIOUS !! So many children, running around, playing, as of the loud, drunk adults, and then ladies and gentlemen.... PIZZA !! I love pizza, I'm like a Ninja Turtle I swear. Anyyyyyywho, I took a chair, watched the fight, thanking God for such a miracle, but I still felt guilty. Why? Well I knew I would have to continue this lie, and that was something I have never done before.

             The fight ended, We all talked for a while, and ate some more pizza. My step dads mother had looked at me, smiled and asked 'Do you have a boyfriend?' I became very scared, and pressured by the question. I just answered 'no' but that again, only added onto my pile of lies. I then left the table, to avoid those type of questions. I decided to go on the couch and go on my phone to talk to Edgar. I grabbed my phone, went to kik, as soon as I went to send my message, BOOM !! Phone died, I was screwed. I couldn't believe it, I asked for a phone charger, but no one had the type of phone I did unfortunately. I was miserable !! I couldn't survive another minute in that house anymore.

       I bothered my mother, begging to leave, as she replied 'In a few'. But a few turned out to become several hours !! I didn't leave that place until 1 o'clock IN THE MORNING !! I was upset, I knew as soon as I get home, Edgar would be asleep. As we drove home, and I immediately rushed to my phone charger, I turned on my phone and went to check the messages. He must have sent about 25 messages asking what I was doing and why I wasn't answering. I replied at 1 o'clock IN THE MORNING !! How I was so sorry, that my phone had died, there was no charger, and how I just came home. I knew he wasn't going to answer at a time like this. Until, sure enough, I here a ring coming from my phone, and it was from Edgar. From then on, we talked all night together, until we knocked out, and when we did, I have to say, tonight, was the BEST night ever.
