I really want to dedicate this chapter to Ayehu3 she always leaves me awesome comments. Thanks so much for them, I always take the time to read them 😊~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I paced my kitchen floor and Beastly flowed every step as I waited for the phone to ring.
"Will you quit following me?" I asked the dog and he let out a bark.
I returned to my pacing and finally, mom answered the phone.
"Hey sweetheart." She smiled and I relaxed a little.
"Hi." I breathed out and my pacing slowed.
"What's up?" She asked and I let out a sigh.
"I think I regret not applying to college." I sighed.
At the end of my party there was a bonfire and all everyone talked about was which college they're going to and what they're studying.
"Casey, college will still be there next year. You took a year off because you were emotionally tired of school." She reminded and I nodded.
It's true, I did.
"And trust me, I truly believe that you made the right choice. College is not easy and I think you need that break." She reminded and I nodded.
"Thanks mom." I sighed.
"Is that all?" She asked and I shook my head.
"Yes." I told her instead.
"Are you sure?" She asked.
No, absolutely not. I'm still madly in love with Jason Christopher McCall.
"Yes." I said again.
"Really?" So we can talk about Jason without you wanting to cry?" She asked and I cringed.
Dang it.
"Mom." I said slowly.
"Sweetheart, your father and I taught you to always go after what you want. Correct?" She asked and I nodded.
"Yes."
"Its time for you to practice what we taught you." She said and I let sigh.
"I can't, I messed up." I told her.
"What do you mean?" She asked.
Sliding to the floor, I launched into the story of how Jason tried to kiss me on Friday night and how I blatantly rejected him.
"Why didn't you kiss him?" She asked and I scratched behind Beastly's ear.
"I didn't want it to be the wrong kiss." I told her and as I said it out loud, I realized how stupid that sounded.
There's no such thing as a wrong kiss with Jason McCall.
"I suppose that makes sense." Mom stated over the phone and I nodded.
"Yeah."
"Well, I wouldn't worry too much about it. I think you guys will work things out, I am team Cason." She said and I gasped.
"How do you know about that?" I asked and she laughed.
"Yours and Maddie's girl talk isn't very quiet at two o'clock in the morning." She said and I grinned.
