"I cannot belive it." I said to myself again. I just gratuated highschool. "I'm free!" I yelled at the ceiling.

I giggles slightly, and shifted on my bed. And then I shifted again, and again, and again. I couldn't get comfortable.

Just then, my phone let out a lovely noise. I checked, only to see a text from Chris.

Chris: Maddison, can we please talk?

Maddison: not right now.

Chris: why not?

Maddison: Because I'm sleeping.

I set my phone down, then picked it back up, and dialed Dahlia's number.

"Is it bad?" I asked.

"Is what bad?"

"Is it bad that I still like him?"

"No. Especially if he was telling the truth, which he most likely was."

"How would you know?"

"Haven't you seen the way he looks at you? Even Callie sees it. And, I've kind of been spying on him for the last few weeks, and he's totally a mess without you."

"Are you serious?'

"Yes, why do you seem so happy?"

"Because he's a mess without me."

-Call Ended-

----------------------------

"But what does that say about me, as a person, if a I keep running back into his arms?" I asked. I was now on my fourth phone call with Callie.

"It means that you have a heart. It means that you love him."

"But does it also mean I'm weak?"

"Never."

------------------
I was laying on my bed. It was a normal Friday night, I had been binge watching for the past five hours and I think I had lost a few brain cells. Although I couldn't stop thinking about how much I wanted to run back into Chris's arms, I was still quite lazy.

"Mom! Do we have any ice cream?" I yelled down the stairs.

"No sweet heart, Clarice ate the last of it!" She yelled.

"I'll kill her." I growled at the ceiling.

Little brat ate all my ice cream.

I grabbed my purse and keys, making sure to check that I didn't look too zombified.

"I'm heading out." I told my mom.

"Alright hun, bring back some cookie dough."

Ha. She knew I wasn't going anywhere exciting.

I hopped into my car and started driving to the grocery store.

"Hmmm... cookies and creme or mint chip?" I pondered out loud

I finally decided to just get both.

I continued down the frozen food isle and peered into my cart.

"Ok, so I have three tubs of ice cream and a giant bag of chips in my cart. I look like a pig." I said to myself. I shrugged, and walked towards the books.

"Oh! This book looks so good, oh my gosh. Ten dollars for a book?! Curse my stupid reading addiction" I sighed.

"Maddison?" A male voice asked. It was Chris.

Out of habit I ducked down behind the shelf.

I then facepalmed, considering he had already seen me.

"Stupid, stupid, stupid." I whispered to myself.

Slowly, I stood up and saw Chris's face. I could tell he was holding in a laugh.

"Go ahead, laugh." I rolled my eyes and waved him on.

He burst into a laughing fit, causing him to roll around in the floor.

"Done yet?" I asked, shifting my weight onto my left foot.

"Yep. Nope." He said, bursting into another fit of laughter.

He finally got off the floor and looked at me with his beautiful brown eyes.

"I'm sorry Maddison." Chris said. "But in my defense..." he started and my jaw dropped. "In your defense?! Chris!!" I shouted, and began to turn away.

Wait, I had turned around, he was supposed to grab me and pull me into his chest. I turned around and look into his pretty eyes.

"Chris, listen. When I'm mad, and walk away from you, follow me. When I push or hit you, grab me and don't let go. When I'm quiet, ask what's wrong. When I ignore you, give me your attention. When I start to cry, hold me and tell me everything is going to be ok. When I say that it's cold, wrap me up in your embrace. When I tickle you, tickle me back. When I stare at you, I want you to kiss me. And when I'm about to give up, tell me that you'll never let me go." Hot tears were streaming down my face, and as I closed my eyes, I could feel him pull me into his chest and whisper, "Everything's going to be alright."
