Neighbors (Madison Alamia love story)

Chapter 22

I walk out to the living room, and Whitney is sitting on the couch with Ella and Sofia watching some kids show. “What’d you want?” I say as I sit down next to her. “Well I was taking Sofia and Ella to an amusement park today, and I wanted to know if you wanted to come with us. Abby’s coming too.” “Oh yeah sure, I’d love to!” I say smiling. “When are we going?” “Tonight at like 6.” “Alright. I’ll go get ready, because it takes a while to look this good.” I laugh and walk into the bathroom and turn the shower on. 

I place my Phone on the dock, and click shuffle. As I step in the shower, Story of my Life by One Direction comes on, and I can’t help but sing along to it. “Written on these walls, are the stories that I can’t explain.” I sing along while I rub the shampoo in my hair. “Leave my heart open, but it stays right here empty for days. She told me in the morning, she don’t feel the same about us in her bones. Seems to me that when I die the-” 

I stop mid-sentence when I hear a knock on the door. “Yesssss?” I say. “Are you okay in there, it sounds like someone’s dying!” “Oh shut up!” I say laughing, and rinsing my hair. 

MEGHANS POV

Its been about a week since Shannon left. Pretty much nothings the same. I mean, me and Nick are still together. But Bri and Madison still aren’t talking, and they’re both devastated. They should just make up already. Mikey’s devastated about Shannon. Nick and I have been hanging out with him at least everyday since Shannon left. I was planning a surprise party for Nick today. The only problem is, I have no clue if I will be able to get Madison and Bri out of there houses. Or Mikey for that matter. 

I planned on going to tell Bri that Madison wasn’t coming, so maybe she would go. I’m pretty positive that she still likes him, but just doesn’t want to admit it. I walked to her house, and her mom let me in. “Bri, can I come in?” I say knocking on the door. “Fine.” She answered. I opened the door, and it looked like she hasn’t left her room for days. “How long have you been in here? Have you even left your house?” “I’ve been in here for about 3 days. And no, I havent left for a while.” “Well you are today, because I’m throwing a surprise party for Nick, because he’s turning 16 and I want everyone to be there.” Shit. Well that ruined my plan on telling her that Madison wasn’t going to be there. “So Madisons going to be there?” “Yes. But you can’t just sit around in your room all day, everyday. Go out and show him that you don’t need him to be happy.” “But I do. I miss him Meghan.” “I know you do, but he cheated on you. You don’t need him. You’re too good for him anyways.” “Fine, I’ll go. But make sure I don’t see him at all. I’ll end up breaking down.” “Sure thing. Don’t worry, you won’t see him.” I was about to leave, but turned around and said “But please take a shower and clean up first. And spray some perfume it stinks in here.” I say laughing then leaving. Now I have to get Madison to go. And Mikey.

I decide to go to Madisons first, since it’ll be easier to get him to go then Mikey. 

“Hi Mrs.Alamia, is Madison home?” I ask his mom, as she answers the door. “Yeah, he’s up in his room.” She says smiling. I love how nice she is. “Do you think it’s okay, if he goes to a birthday party for Nick today?” I ask. “That would be lovely. Good luck getting him to go though.” She says laughing and allowing me in the house. I walk up to Madison’s room, and knock to make sure he’s decent. “Can I come in Madison?” “Yeah.” I walk in and he is also laying in his bed. “So I’m throwing a surprise birthday party for Nick today, and I wanted you to go. I want every one of his friends to be there.” “Is Bri going to be there.” “Yes.” “Then I’ll go.” He says. I am not about to tell him that Bri doesn’t want to talk to him, let alone see him. Because if I tell him that, then he won’t want to go. “Okay great! It’s at 7 on the beach.” I smile, say my goodbyes and leave.
