Chapter Seven
Drew Matheson
After waking up early in the morning like always and getting dressed I made my way downstairs and mom was siting on the counter reading comics from the newspaper.
I chuckled, " Your such a kid."
" But I"m still your mom," She says not taking her eyes off the paper.
" Where's dad?" I ask as I lean against the counter and eat some toast from my mom's plate, " He's still with gran... She's not doing that well," She sighs and lifts her head up," Hey!"She yells snatching the toast from my hands.
" Well I don't see where my breakfast is," I tell her.
" Yeah. Sorry about that I had came late from the hospital yesterday and hardly had sleep and actually just woke up." She answers tiredly.
I kiss her cheek, " I think I"ll go visit her, and I'll get some breakfast from the Diner. I'll just stay with her until school starts in the afternoon, I'll catch a bus."
" That seems like a good idea," She tells me.
" Well better get going," I say picking up my things and heading towards the door.
" Have a good day Honey!" Mom yells from the kitchen.
" You to dear mother!" I chuckle back.
I open the gate and start walking down the sidewalk.
I pass Nick and Tristen's houses which were across the street, they were probably both still sleeping.

While I was walking by the soccer field to get to the Diner, I saw a girl wearing a baggy gray pair of sweatpants and a red sweater.
I don't know why but my feet walked across the fresh summer grass and towards her and when I was able to see her face I blurted, " Andy?" And she looked up from her day dream, " What?" She snapped.
" Well lookie here, Drew Matheson, yay!" She teases.
I chuckle and look at her, I couldn't help, but I started to stare.
I noticed her features, her menacing eyes that say the've been thorugh a lot, the beautiful hair, her soft lips but yet wild look.
She stood up and picked up her backpack and skateboard and I shook my head to snap back to reality, " Back to Earth?" She asks and I laugh.
" You skateboard?" She nods, " But I just found this lying around so, I kinda took it," She says sounding guilty.
But suddenly she yelps, " What's wrong?" I snap clutching her arm for support.
" You see," She mumbles, " I-I- umm... Had a skateboard accident!"
" Oh." I say not convinced but don't push it any further.
" Hey so you know a breakfast play around here? A starbucks?" She asks ignoring what pain she had.
" Yeah, I'm headed to a diner here, wanna come?" I ask her hoping for a yes.
She thinks, " Umm... What ever, I'm really hungry... But don't tell anyone about this." She says.
" Great let's go then," I smile.
She sighs," Yeah, sure but can you unclutch your arm off mine?"
I quickly do so and apologize and she laughs.
" Well lead the way," She said.
I smile and start walking, she follows limping.
" Are you sure your okay? I can hold your-" I start but she waves her hand signing she's fine.

Humor" Leave me alone Drew... You don't want to get involved in my screwed up life," I said and started to walk away. Drew grabbed my hand, and I snapped my head up to look at him. " What if I want to be involved?" He asked. I look at his eyes, as much...
