I am back guys <3 Tysm for 350+ reads!! ahh love you.

ANNAS POV

"Hey, Anna," my mom says suspiciously the moment I walk through my front door.

It smells different in here; like roses and gasoline. Kellin. I look around quickly, trying to see if I spot Kellin, or even hear him breathing. Kellin breathes extremely heavy.

"Hey, mom."

"So, how come you had Oliver call me last night? Didn't I tell you that you needed to be home at a specific time?" Her lips press into a straight line, and she places her hands on her wide hips. Instead of answering, I stare at her. "And?" she presses.

"Mother," I start, "Oliver called you on his own terms. I am sure he wanted to show you that he was responsible. It turns out, he really likes me, and I do like him back, and I stayed with him overnight. I know I should've come home, but I fell asleep on the beach. Oliver called, he told me." Did that satisfy her annoying parental needs? Damn.

A shocked gasp comes from my mother's now parted lips. Her eyes look... hazy. Upset, maybe? Pitiful? I can't really determine her expression until I ask.

"What's up, mom?" I ask. I pull my hair into a low ponytail and take a seat in the chair in front of me.

"Well," she says. What is she hiding!? "Kellin stopped by last night, and he was, uh," I cut her off.

"Why the hell was Kellin over, mother! We broke up, and I expected you to not fall into his guilt traps. I can't believe this!" I shout. Maybe that is why it smells like Kellin...

"Anna, don't speak to me like that. Kellin is a nice boy, whom I have grown to love over the course of your relationship. He came over to try and win you back, but you were out with Oliver," she says his name with venom. "And since you were gone, with the British boy, whom I have never met in person, he wanted to talk to me... about his troubles," she spits.

"Mom! Seriously? You act like Kellin is God himself. I'm sorry, mom. No I am not over him, but I am working towards it, yes. I need to move on, you said it yourself before. He treated me badly, even if it was only for a short amount of time, and I wasn't about to put up with it! You taught me better than that! That's why you left dad," I spit. My mom stares at me, giving me an evil look.

Then, we both storm off to our quarters of the house.

No, I really am not over Kellin, not yet anyway. I am working on it, and I am thankful that Oliver is there. I am not using him, he just happens to be the guy i am getting over Kellin with. Okay... maybe I'm using him a little. But I actually do like Oli quite a bit. He is A great guy, and doesn't seem to have any surprise anger issues like Kellin does. I mean, Oliver is kind of better looking than Kellin.

Oliver is tall, thin but muscular-ish, and he has tattoos. Sleeves, which are almost completes, and a rose on his neck. I like the way he dresses, and he has a nice jawline. Kellin is shorter, with dark, longer hair. It reaches his shoulders, just about. He has tattoos, almost a completed sleeve on his right arm. Kellin has a nice voice in general.

All I am one-hundred percent sure of, is that I will be talking to Kellin about coming to my house and talking to my mom.

yes I know they have more tatts, but they're in high school, and I am trying to preserve their young bodies haha.
