It's been a few days since Trystan and I first date, and since then I have dreamed of him every night. I don't know why I suddenly feel so strongly about him, maybe I have for a while but I've just not paid much attention to it.

I really want to tell him I want him to know that I like him, but I'm afraid, I'm afraid of rejection, I'm afraid that things will become really awkward that he will no longer want to hang around with me because of how I feel. I don't want to mess things up.

"Carmen, come down here for a second please" my dad shouted up to me, interrupting my train of thought.

I walk downstairs and into the Livingroom where my parents where.

"Your mother and I are leaving town-"

"What? Why? How could you abandon me? What did I do wrong?" I interrupt my dad rather dramatically

"It's only for a couple days"

"Oh, um wait why can't I come?"

"Because you have school, and your father and I have been planning this for a very long time"

"Okay, wait, you're trusting me at home alone?"

"Shahada, of course not honey" my mum laughed, wow well that hurt

"I behave though"

"Oh yeah sure, okay, I don't want to be coming home to find the place a mess after you've thrown a party or whatever"

I gasp in fake horror, she knows me too well.

"Well where am I going? no please don't send me to crazy carols, she has got that nickname for a reason"

"Stop being so dramatic, not you will be staying with Trystan and his mother"

Ok I don't know whether to be extremely happy or not.

I mean yeah I like him so I'm fine with staying at his, but what if I get really attached.

"Okay" I reply simply not wanting to give away my emotions for him.

"Go pack Trystan's picking you up soon"

"Okay"

I practically run upstairs and grab my duffel bag.

I pack my undies, clothes for the next three days, my hair brush, my tooth brush, my makeup, my power cord, and whatever else I needed.

I checked my phone and I had a text off of Trystan

Guess you're staying with me for a couple days ;) xx

Guess I am, don't get too happy ;) xx

Did I just flirt back with him???

Guess I did.

I'm here by the way xx

I looked out of my bedroom window to see his car parked in the drive.

I walk downstairs wave goodbye to my parents and walk out to Trystan's car.

"Hey" he greets me

"Hey"

He drives to his house

"So why are your parents leaving for a couple days?"

"They said they've been planning this trip for a long time but I couldn't come because I've got school"

"You know what they mean when they say that right?" he winks at me

"Oh hell no, eww that's disgusting"
