I ran into the house and threw my school bag on the ground. My sneakers flew in two different directions as I ran up to my room as fast as i could. I immediately threw myself on the window frame. I saw Xander's long legs walking in the direction that we came from.

Why was he walking back? He said that he was going this way. I saw him walk down the street until he took a right turn and got out of my sight.

Did he come all this way just to accompany me?

No that couldn't be correct. He doesn't even know me nor does he show any interest in doing so, therefore that couldn't be true. I guess... As I was too lost in my thoughts my eyes had not shifted from where Xander disappeared. This leading to me not noticing my dad's car pull up in the garage. The doorbell made me jump out of my own little world and I started making my way downstairs.

"Daddy!" I shouted as I jumped on my father making him nearly loose his balance. I guess I'm not that light anymore.

"There's my baby! I missed you so much pumpkin." He kissed my head and I jumped down on my own two feet.

"How was your trip dad?"I asked as my eyes roamed behind dad for Kate but she was nowhere in sight.

"Oh it was amazing. What miracles does that state have. And what comfy beds!" My dad wiggled his eyebrows.

"Ew gross! You old people make me sick." I fake gagged.

I heard my dads faint laugh as he was now in the kitchen while I was still waiting for Kate by the door. Me and my politeness.

"You can close the door. Kate's gone to the market for some grocery shopping. It crossed our minds that there wouldn't be much left here."

I simply rolled my eyes at my dads secrete offense. The buzz in my back pocket indicated that someone was calling me.

"Hello?" I answered without looking at the callers ID. A habit that I do quite often.

"Be ready in 50. We're coming to get you." That's definitely Anna.

"What are you talking about?"

I heard her groan of annoyance. "I said get ready we're going out."

"What do you mean we're going out? Who's going out?"

I never got a reply as I heard the line go dead. Seeing as though I was stuck I groaned and went to take a shower.

Entering the back of Dan's car I saw Jonny texting away on his phone. He put it down when I got in to give me the usual kiss on the cheek.

"Hey love." He greeted me with a smile. I also smiled and gave him a quiet "hi" back. I greeted Dan with a pat on the shoulder and Anna with a punch on it.

"Ouch! Well, hello to you too Amiga!" She groaned rubbing her shoulder.

"That was for not filling me in and this.." I punched her again "is for hanging up on me." I spat at her, this time only getting a laugh back.

The car ride was filled with jokes and laughs since Dan is quite the comedian.  I noticed that he had parked in the parking lot of the dock, a place this, which I love.

"Well someone's excited" Jonny smirked at me as he noticed the excitement on my face. I poked his side knowing how ticklish he is making his explode in a fit of laughter as the four of us started walking down the old wooden dock.

There were people all around us. This precise dock was built especially for people to enjoy themselves while on it rather than being home to ships.

Dan and Anna were walking hand in hand in front of us so Jonny scoffed in a childish matter and grabbed my hand as well. I laughed at his childish behavior and didn't retrieve my hand. It was a nice evening, the sun was begging to set and the lights hadn't turned on quite yet.

The four of us walked all the way to the far end of the dock enjoying our little moments together. The sun looked like a blasting flame that was slowly dying. The burning flame was halfway into the sea making his reflection mesmerizing, it's red shining so bright that the sky itself had become almost red too.

The four of us dropped down on the wooden floor as we sat on the edge of the dock. Our feet hanging freely above the water surface. Anna, being the cute little monkey she is when she's with Dan, put her head on his shoulder, their hands still together on her lap.

Jonny was watching them with a slight smile on his face. He took a deep breath and turned his eyes to our intertwined hands. They were still together, standing in the fair distance we were keeping form one another. It wasn't much though just a couple of inches. A frown overtook his face. He closed the distance by sliding himself next to me.

"There, better." He told me with a bright smile. I smiled as well at his cuteness, isn't he adorable? If you took a picture of Jonny's soft brown eyes and the thick lashes surrounding them you wouldn't be able to stop looking at it. He was simply adorable with those big brown orbs of his.

I kept a hold on Jonny's hand for a couple more minutes but there was this stupid gut feeling telling me there was someone watching me. I started looking in all directions but everyone seemed to be minding their own business. I was about to give up until my head turned right at the very corner.

Green eyes bore into my blue ones as unpleasantness, or dare I say anger was evident in them.

Xander glared at me for no more than 3 seconds before his eyes followed my arm length down to my taken hand. His face muscles were so tense I could see them forming lines. His jaw shut so forcefully the bones forming their own pattern on his skin. I shouldn't have kept looking at him when he was giving me that look but it was too late now. I had seen the look of hatred he had given me.

What did I do? I couldn't stop myself from wandering about what I had done to make him look at me like that. Never had I been looked upon with such...hate. I thought he was being nice to me earlier because he thought that I was genuinely nice. I don't get it. Did I upset him when I left hurriedly?

I quickly turned my head away from him not being able to bear with that look anymore. What is he doing here anyway? I looked at him from the corner of my eye and saw that there was a guy with him.

Tall, broad shoulders, David Beckham hair. The guy seemed to be telling something but Xander wasn't really paying much attention as he kept takin long puffs out of his cigarette.

"Reach you okay?" I felt Jonny tugging my hand. Only then did I notice everyone was up on their feet. The lights had turned on and the sun had set.

"Yeah, yeah. I'm fine." I got up as well and started waking with Jonny hand in hand just like Dan and Anna.

"How about some pizza guys?" Dan suggested.

We all agreed and made our way across the dock. Nevertheless I could still feel those green orbs on my back.

And there goes another chapter for you guys. Hope you guys like it and want more of this book. Happy birthday to me btw! Haha

Be true to yourself. - O
