Hate Is A Form Of Affection (UNEDITED)

Chapter 3

It's freezing outside today. I walk home listening to music, hugging myself to try and keep myself warm. It's only 11 o clock right now, and I'm supposed to be in school as of  right now, but I can't be there , I just need some time with myself to think about things. I see my house appear, and I run over to the front door. I take out my keys & open the door. I enter my house and lock the door. I run upstairs, and open my bedroom door. I take off my shoes, and put them in my closet. I fall back onto the bed, and sigh. I turn my head to the bedside counter on my left. I sit up, and see A picture of me, mom, and dad together, having a small picnic in the park. I pick it up, and smile remembering that day. That was one of the greatest days of my life. I really miss him, I wish I could just have one last moment with him, even if it's just for a second, it wouldn't Matter, at least I would have got the chance to see him again. I place the photo back on the counter, and get up and open my drawers looking for clean Pjs. I pick out a black tank top, with sweatpants & clean undergarments. I grab my towel, and walk to the bathroom. I close the bathroom door and strip out of my clothes. I put my clothes in the dirty laundry bin sitting in the corner of my bathroom. I step into the shower. I turn the knob, and the water begins to pour all over me. I make sure it's warm, so that way I don't either burn to death or freeze to death haha. About 15 minutes later, I step out of the shower. I grab my towel and wrap it around my body. I walk back into my bedroom, and dry myself. I slip my clothes on, and go downstairs to find something to eat. I open the fridge, and find nothing. We really need to do some groceries. I close it and walk over to the couch. I lay down and turn the TV on. Hmm, I'm in the mood to watch spongebob. I lay down and stare at the screen, I slowly feel my eyes closing. I let out a loud yawn, and close my eyes, then I fell into a deep sleep..

"Riley.. Wake up" My eyes slowly open. My vision is a little blurry, so I rub my eyes, now my vision is clear. I find my mother standing in front of me. "Mom? What time is it?" I ask getting up stretching. "It's 4:00. Did you go to school today?" "Yeah mom, but I left early" "what? Why? You better have a good reason" "I just, I didn't feel very well, I just needed to stay home, I'm sorry. I hope you can understand". She sighs & walks over to the kitchen. "It's okay, but next time call me and tell me please." "I will" "Did you come walking home alone or did Matt drive you?" I stiffen at his name, but regain myself. "Um no I walked here by myself, he was.. Busy" I say getting up. "Oh okay. Well what do you want to eat? I can make lasagna" she says smiling at me. "Mm, as much as I love your lasagna, I'm in the mood for Chinese" I say. "Okay, I'll order in" "really? Thanks mom" I give her a small peck on the cheek, and she grabs the phone. I hear the doorbell ring. "Can you please get the door?" I nod and walk over to the front door. I open the door and see Matt standing on my front porch. "Matt?" "Yeah, can I talk to you?" "About what? "Maybe if you'd let me talk to you, you would know" he says Rolling his eyes at me. "Uh, okay?" I step outside, and close the door a little bit behind me.

"What is going on?" I ask.
"I just wanted to come and tell you that, tomorrow I'm coming over for dinner" "for what?" I ask. "I don't know, my mom said that your mom, and my mom have to tell us some thing important. You know how this goes, don't mention a word about anything that Happens at school, or I swear it'll be the last thing you ever do" "I know how it goes, now get off my property" I say pushing him off. I open the door. "Who was it?" "It was just Matt" "Oh. Did he tell you about the dinner were having tomorrow here?" "Yeah he told me, and he also mentioned that you, and Claire need to tell us something important.. What's going on mom?" She walks away from me. "You will find out tomorrow, trust me it's nothing bad, if anything, I think you'll be happy about it" I raise my eyebrow at her in confusion. "Don't worry, okay?" I nod my head. "Great, the food should be coming soon, so how about we watch a movie or something while we wait" "sure".
