Chapter 8 | The Worrying

It has been a week since Logan kissed me. And we have been going as strong as ever. As of now we have been dating for almost two weeks and June is almost over, three days left actually, meaning two months until college starts.

I am internally freaking out. Two more months until college means two more solid months with Logan. We still haven't talked about what we want to do for colleges. My number one college choice expects to have my final decision within a week. Logan and I both only have one college out of all our colleges we want to go to. The rest are practically across the country.

We both have University of Minnesota Duluth on our list, the rest of mine are on the east coast and Logan's choices are in the south mainly Florida and down there. He says he misses his friends, but is curious to what Minnesota's winters are like. I told him that would be a big mistake, as the winters are unpredictable, you never know what it would be like.

My major of choice is a english teaching degree. Logan's major of choice is architecture. Two completely different majors, but we both have plans to do generals.

When I woke up today I had thought it would be a good day with Logan, just like it has been since the last week. But, however, when I got a text from Logan only a few minutes before he would pick me up, the text stated that he would not be able to get me because something urgent has came up in his family. I had texted him saying that it was fine and I understood. I have always believed family comes first before well, anything, really.

Since Logan texted me quite late I decided to skip my shower so I could make it to work on time.

I made it to work with only two minutes to spare. It was okay though, considering how Mandy has recently been to work on time and actually working.

I am guessing it is for one of three reasons or maybe all together: a) since the cheating has been revealed she doesn't need to be sneaking around by) her father has gotten on her case about being late, or c) Brice asked her to. But I am doubting the last one. Brice doesn't seem all that taken with Mandy and it doesn't seem like him to do that.

When I got to the back of the cafe I hung up my purse and put on my apron. Before I went ahead to work, I stopped by my boss's office to ask him if I can just make some cookies instead of working the counter. He granted my wish, but he said that my pay will be a little lower since that is not what he hired me for.

He also know that I have thought about owning a bakery for my career,  but I also wanted to be a teacher. I figured out that I will be a teacher and also bake in my free time. When I am going to be in college I will be searching for a bakery to work in.

My favorite types of cookies to make are chocolate chip and sugar. I figured that I would make chocolate chip because I checked in and saw what Mandy needed more of.

I just finished making a second batch that is ready to go into the oven when my phone rang. I found it odd that someone would call me since the only people in my contact list are mom, dad, Grayson, Kenda and Logan.

I knew it wasn't Grayson or Kenda since they are both on their way back to college. They told us that they only came back to anounce their relationship and inform us what Ali did.

Mom is at work and dad is probably sleeping or playing tea party with Brooke. They don't usally call me unless if something major happened in our family.

With that thought in mind I quickly raced to my phone only to discover it was Logan. I breathed out a sigh of relief and relaxed.

I answered it and put it to my ear and said, "Hey Logan. What's up?"

"Hey Olivia, I am calling to tell you that I won't be able to pick you up at work." He replied.

"Alright, may I ask why?" I said then quickly added "It is okay for you to not want to tell me."
