" So thanks for putting up with me for the day" I said as he walked me to Red's parents house.

" Thanks for putting up with me" he said.

" Ehh. It was easy" I said.

" Can't say the same for you" he said.

" Well" I said walking faster then him so I got to the door first.

" Bye then" he said.

" No but really it really was fun spending time with you" I said.

" You too. See you later y/n" he said walking away.

" You too" I said walking into the house.

" Hello?" I called out when I saw no one.

" Hey" Red said coming down the stairs.

" Hello." I said sitting at the table.

" So how was it?" he asked sitting across from me.

" Good. We had a lot of fun" I said.

" That's good. So I talked to my grandmother." he said.

" And?" I asked.

" Well she told me that you were the worst possible mistake I could possibly make. And that she wants you out of this house." he said. He looked at me with a sad look in his eyes.

" Oh Red." I said reaching for his hands " I'll tell you one thing. I gave up trying to please people like that a long time ago. I'm not a people pleaser once they have an image of me in their head. A bad one that is. And tell ya what. I. Don't. Care. Now if you said those things I would die inside. You saved my life. But she has her feelings for me. In her head. So stop trying to change them. Okay?" I said.

He got his hands out of mine and said " I have to go grab something. Be right back."  

" Okay" I said.

When he got back down stairs he held something behind his back. " Close your eyes" he said.

I smiled and closed my eyes

" Okay. I know all I did was put something on the table but it's a pretty something. I think so anyways. Oh you can open." he said.

I opened my eyes and smiled even bigger. " Oh thank you Red" I said. It was a necklace. It was a tiny golden hart. On the case thing that held it said ' Loved you yesterday. Love you still. Always Have, Always Will'

" Oh no problem. I saw you wear a silver hart. Still don't know where you got that. So I got you this" he said.

I touched my sisters necklace. I smiled and hugged him. " Thank you so much"

He hugged me back. He kissed the top of my head and said " Well you have been through a lot. So something to reward you for your trouble."

" Well it's lovely. But we still need to talk about your grandmother." I said letting go of him to take my sisters necklace off.

" Well I told her you don't need to go as the girl she thinks help hurt your own mother. You can go as my girlfriend. After she shot that down I told her that if you don't come I don't either." he said helping me put it on. I held my sisters necklace. I'll have to put this somewhere safe.  

" And what did she say then?" I asked turning to face him.

" That you could come. Only cause of what I said tho" he said.

" That's okay. Um I'm going to go put this somewhere safe. Be right back" I said. I grabbed the thing Red's necklace came in and went upstairs.

Red's POV

" So did she like it?" Vanessa asked. She came down right after y/n went upstairs.

" She liked it. Thanks for helping me get it." I said.

" No prob. She is really pretty in it. I saw her for a second and she was, more so then already, so pretty." she said.

" She is isn't she" I said.

" We just went over this" she said.

" Over what?" y/n asked coming down the stairs.

" How pretty you are" Vanessa said.

She laughed " That must be hard to do" she said.

" How so?" I asked.

" I'm bad at a lot of stuff and being pretty is one of them." she answered.

" What else are you bad at then?" Vanessa asked. 

" Oh math, breathing under water, flying, English, and becoming a bunny" she answered.

" Okay. But we can't do those things either" I said.

" Yeah but there still things I'm bad at so I'm not wrong" she said.

" She's not wrong Michael" Vanessa.

" I know" I said.

" Yes. I always be right" Y/n said.

" Really?" I asked.

" Shhh. Just shhh. Let me have this" she said.

" Okay." I said laughing.
