-Maddie's POV-

I was looking everywhere for Josh, but it felt impossible to be able to find him.

I finally found him in the backyard, talking to some of his soccer buddies.

"Hey, I've been looking everywhere for you"

"Oh, I'm sorry Mads, you look beautiful" he spoke giving me a quick peck on the lips.

"Thanks and Ill be right back, I'm going to go get a drink" I said smiling, before walking off into the house.

When I went to go get a drink, I saw Emma talking to one of her friends.

"Hey, where is Ben?" I asked

"Um, last time I saw him, he was upstairs."

"Ill go find him" I spoke.

I climbed up the stairs, and took a turn down the hall, I saw him straight ahead, out on the balcony.

"Hey" I said, approaching Ben.

"Hi, just so ya know, you might want to step back"

"Why?"

"I feel like th-" he didn't get to finish his sentence, before he ran to the side of the balcony. I heard him let all.... that out of HHS system.

"Heyyyyyy" someone screamed.

"Sorry" he said to the person down below.

"I'm gonna go to the bathroom"

"Yeah"

After he left, I stayed out on the balcony for a little longer, before going back to Josh.

I was on my way home from the party, because my parents called and said they were getting on a plane to come home.

Thankyou. I finally get to see them.

.

.

"Maddie!" my mom screamed running to me in the hall way. She grabbed me into a bone crushing hug. After she released, she gave me a kiss on my cheeks.

Next my dad came and gave me a hug, and kissed the top of my head.

"I missed you" he wispered only loud enough for me to hear. Even though they were pretty bad parents, I still love them.

"Okay, so lets eat, I made dinner" I said.

We all sat down, and I served them the spaghetti I made.

"Maddie, thus is delicious" my dad commented.

"Thanks"

"Okay so guys, I have news" I said looking at both of them.

"What is it honey?" my mom asked.

"I have a boyfriend"

My dad started choking on his food.

"What!"

"I have a boyfriend, and he makes me happy"

"Well if he makes you happy..." My mom said looking at my dad.

"Joe" my mom said kicking my dad under the table.

"Then were happy" my dad spoke, finishing the sentence.

"Yay!" I yelled, with joy.

After dinner, I went up to my room, and prepared for bed until I got a text from Emma.

From Emma:
Hey, can I come over?

To Emma:
Are you crazy? My parents are home.

From Emma:
I can climb in the window :) Just leave it open

To Emma:
Whatever

Five minuets later, I heard knocking at my window. And saw Emma there. I was walking over to help her in, but I heard someone coming. I ran to my bed, and started to pretend I was reading.

"Hey, Maddie"

"Hey, Dad"

"So Maddie, I want to let you know, that I don't want you to get your heart broken again, so I'm going to let you know, there is only two things guys want and-"

"Dad, I'm fine"

"Well, okay, but we will continue this." As my dad was getting up to leave, the worst happened.

"Hey, why is your window open?"

"Oh I was just going to close it"

"No it's okay, ill get it"

I looked over and saw Emma's fingers holding onto the window for dear life.

I looked away, as I heard the window slide close.

"Goodnight"

"Night"

After my dad left, I hopped up and ran to open the window. I helped Emma in and closed it. I looked at her fingers, and saw that they were red and swollen.

"Are you okay?"

"Um ya, ill be fine, can I just get some ice"

I nodded, and walked down stairs, and passed my parents.

I opened the freezer, and found an ice pack. It was frozen solid, great. ill have to break it. I started to slam the ice on the counter. My dad came running into the kitchen.

"What are you doing?" he asked.

"Just breaking ice" I spoke casually.

"I know that, but what do you need ice for?" he asked.

"I have cramps" I lied.

"I thought women were supposed to apply hot things, not cold" he said while raising an eyebrow.

"Gotta go" I said, pushing past him, and running upstairs with the ice.
