(Sam's POV)

I was woken up by my sister's voice. She had been calling my name for about 10 times this morning. I wasn't ready to face the world. I'd rather pass on breakfast rather that giving up my 30 minutes of extended sleep.

"Sam. wake up! You don't want to be late for school. "My sister, shook my legs trying to wake me up. I growled at her for doing that and I rolled over to the other side, avoiding her.

Don't you just hate it when your sleep gets interrupted? When you're being woken up by someone before your alarm snoozes? Ugh! 

"Leave me alone Val. I need some sleep."  I said, wrapping the blanket around me like a cocoon and covering my face with a pillow. She tickled my tummy and I wriggled like a worm.  I immediately got off my bed. I'm really ticklish and that's my weakness.

"Can I just skip school?!"I hissed, wrapping my arms across my chest, sighing. 

"Stop kidding around and fix yourself. We're going to be late." She said, giving me a skeptical look before walking out. 

I've been overthinking last night and I can't seem to sleep well. I was trying not to make a big deal with what Kaelan has said. I know he probably said it just to fend off his psychotic ex-gf. If I were in hi shoes I'll probably do the same thing. 

When you're thinking about someone before going to sleep, waking up is the hardest part. You roll outta bed and down on your knees and for a moment and you simply just want to jump back on the bed and get some more sleep.  I only had two hours of sleep. Isn't that great?

I took a quick shower, put on some decent clothes. I'm already late for school. I grabbed a granola bar when I reached into the kitchen and ran outside, hopping into my car.  

"So, have you decided already?" Nelson said.  I nearly jumped out of my skin and shrieked by surprise.

"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make you jump."  He said, giving me that apologetic look.

"How'd you get inside my car Nelson?" I asked.

 "Dude, relax. You gave me your extra car key. Remember?"  He said. I shook my head in disbelief, regretting that I gave it to him. I always forget where I put my car key. So, I gave my spare key to him, just in case it'll happen again.

"What?" Nelson screamed at the top of his lungs like he just saw Lady Gaga. I told him about what happened back at the bleachers. That little make out scene we made me feel warm and fuzzy inside, like everything around me suddenly turned into cupcakes.

To be honest, I don't know how to react when he did that in front of me.  I wasn't sure whether I should be happy, or I'd pity Crystal because Kaelan was being harsh to her? I know Kaelan was being honest to her, but who would want their ex sticking to you like a gum, even if it's crystal clear that it is over?  That's just a pain in the ass. And as for Crystal, she's just a total bitch. 

Whoah! Did I just say that? But who cares? Everyone has their own bitchy moments. Kaelan hates her and I can see why.

"I can't believe it!"  I pushed Nelson away and shrugged at him. He was showing the symptoms of

"FANGIRLING over here!" He sang, squealing and glomping like a fan girl.

I looked away, avoiding Nelson's gaze. I know I was blushing.

Sometimes things happened so fast that they all soon began to blur. It was as if there's no stopping to it. I've been into relationships before and it was entirely different. I never really had a decent boyfriend for the past two years. Not a single one, unfortunately. They all broke my poor little heart to pieces, playing me like I was nothing but a toy.  I easily fall in love and I've been fooled a lot of times and I've learn to play their stupid games. But with Kaelan, there's something so different about this guy.
