Chapter 17

I woke up the next morning feeling tired and like I hadn't had enough sleep. My face was tight from crying myself to sleep - not out of sadness or jealousy towards aaron. In fact, it was nothing to do with aaron. I was mad at that bitch, Stacey, for becoming involved in something she had no right to be in. What a bitch! I couldn't believe she told me to stay away from Aaron, too. Does that mean she expects me not to visit Jason? My best friend? Well she had another nothing coming.

Not like Jason was talking to me anyway. But he would have to eventually. We've been friends for god knows how long, he couldn't turn his back on me know, just because he thought his brother was bad for me! There was nothing between me and Aaron, and after last night, I'm sure there never will be.

Then there's Aaron himself. How could he send me such mixed messages and then bring Stacey to the cinema? Even if it was because Jason told him to, why would he accept? He must feel something for Stacey, and I certainly don't doubt for one minute that something has went on between then in the past, or she wouldn't have warned me away from him. She definitely had feelings for Aaron and I honestly couldn't pretend to myself that the weren't perfect for each other.. Slut and bad boy.. Voila!

At least I had another trip to the cinema to look forward to. Just me and Luke. He was honestly such a great guy and it's great to think I could have a day out without any drama.

Except there was drama..

I had only been dreaming about this guy for god knows how long and I had no reason why. I had never met him before he moved to our school and according to my 'dream self' I wanted to marry him! Oh, how cliche if I had to fall in love with him, right? And wouldn't that be awkward if I actually grown to like this guy and I told him about the dreams I had been having of him? I can imagine his reply: 'creep', and truth is, it is creepy, but there's nothing I can do about it unless I go to a shrink. But there's nothing wrong with me really.. And I'm not too happy about having someone else knowing about how creepy I am. That'd be super-dee-dooper!

There was just one thing I needed ti clear up that morning, and I needed to see Jason.

I got dressed and pulled my hair into a high pony tail. I walk down stairs to fin my mum sitting on the couch with her feet propped up and drinking he morning coffee. She didn't work Saturday's but my dad did.

"hay, mum. I'm just heading over to Jason's for a bit." I said, giving her a warm smile.

"No bother, honey." she returned the smile and just as I was about to walk out she said, "oh, Eboni, I was wondering if you wanted to do something tonight, just me and you? Your dad's away on a golf trip for a night when he returns from work but I have no plans. Dance for sport relief is on, so we could order a dominos."

I tried to smile because I didn't want to let her down. Me and my mum haven't really been as close recently and we didn't do much, so it was saddening to turn down her offer. "sorry, I'm going out with a friend tonight."

"oh" her eyes were disappointed but excitement replaced the emotion. "is it a boy?"

"yeah." but don't get your hopes up, I mentally stated.

"From school?" she sat up and placed her coffee cup on our small mahogany table in front of her. when I nodded she added "tell me about it?"

"oh, it's nothing." I replied. My mum didn't know anything about my dreams or Luke, and I had no intention on changing that.

"It can't be nothing. Is he taking you to the movies?"

"well, yeah. But it's more a casual friend thing." I stated, waving a dismissive hand.
