Scott's P.O.V.
Bree and I wake up Sunday morning and I look out her window into my room. I saw someone I didn't expect to see. My mom was running around the house, frantically looking for something. Or someone. I remembered that I have most of my stuff here. I get up and kiss Bree awake.

"Scott? What's wrong?"

"Nothing princess. Mom came and she's looking for me. I'll be back later. Love you." She just nods her head and drifts off to sleep. I shake my head and kiss her forehead. I make my way down stairs and over to my house. When I walk in my mom sees me.

"SCOTT! WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN!!" She sounds panicked but not mad.

"Nice to see you too Mom." I laugh and shake my head.

"Scott I'm so glad you came. Guess what??"

"What?"

"My job is giving me 2 weeks off, so I booked a vacation for us in Hawaii!"

My eyes go wide. "Who's going?"

"Me and you silly. Have some time together since I haven't been home lately."

"O-Okay. Can I go talk to my uh, friend real quick?"

"Sure honey."

I practically run over to Bree's house.

"Bree! Get up! We need to talk."

"She shoots out of bed, looking around frantically for me."

"Right here princess."

"Scott?? What's wrong??"

"Moms taking me on vacation..."

"Why's that a bad thing??"

"It's just me and her...for 2 weeks."

"Scott that's okay. It's your mom. You've been with me for a long time and not her. I promise it's okay." She says and gives me a hug. "When do you leave."

"Today."

"Oh. Okay. Want me to help you?" I️ could hear the sadness in her voice. She was bad at covering it up.

"Sure. Let's go."

"Mom! I brought over Brianne. Our neighbor. She's going to help me pack."

"Okay honey." She responds and I roll my eyes at her nickname. Bree giggles at it and I laugh back.

"Okay, you'll need shorts, T-shirts, underwear, socks and swim trunks." Then he face changes to sad.

"Bree? What's wrong?" I couldn't help but ask.

"I-it's just that, you'll be in Hawaii, there's a lot of girls there, they'll see you in your swim trunks." She seems REALLY sad about this. She looks as if she's going to cry.

"Come here princess." I say as I pull her into a hug. I need to ask her out. I need her to be mine. Officially. I'll do it when I get back. I have a special way to ask her. "No one will get me. Even if we're not 'officially' together, I'm all yours. No one else. I love you Brianne Reid." I kiss her head for reassurance. She smiles and finishes throwing stuff into my back. Just then, mom comes in.

"Hey Scott. I wish we could take her along but I didn't know you two were close until now. I'm sorry Brianne but we need to get going now. We will take you along on our next trip and thank you for watching my son while I was gone." She says with a wink at the end. She pulled Bree into a hug and we all walk out together.

I give Bree one more hug. "I love you Bree. If something comes up, call me and I'll be here in a second. We can call every night. I promise." She kisses me on the lips and hugs me one more time. Two weeks without my princess. I feel a little better that Jake was here but I just hope she doesn't fall for him again.

Bree's P.O.V.
I feel a tear go down my face as I watch his car drive off. It just two weeks. You'll be okay. You'll just be sleeping in a cold bed, alone. I sigh and walk up to the house. Jake catches up to me and I instantly smile and engulf him into a hug. "Jake! I'm so happy you're here."He smiles and hugs me back. I've missed being in his arms.

"Hey beautiful. What's wrong. Have you been crying? Who do I have to kill?"

"Haha, no one. Scott left to Hawaii and now I'm at home all alone."

"Well, you could be like before, you can come stay with my mom and I?" He says, a lot of hope in his eyes. I felt bad for doing that to Scott but I figured I'd stop by and say hi to his mom.

"Um, can I just come see your mom for a sec?"

"Sure....you really love him don't you?" I look down and bite my lip.

"Yeah...."

"That's good, he loves you too, I can tell. I won't do anything to get between you two. Okay?"

"Okay." I say as I smile.

We walk up to his house and I'm greeted by him Mom, Linda, with a bone crushing hug.

"Hey Linda, how are you?"

"Im Great! How are you Bree? Is your mom home?"

"No, she's on a trip again."

"Oh, you can stay here hun, in our guest room?"

"That's okay. I'll stay at home and watch my dog."

"Okay honey. If you need anything, we're right here."

"Okay, thank you! Bye Linda, bye Jake!"

After our goodbyes, I walk home and into my room. A lay down in my bed and drift off to sleep.

****
Sleeping was hard. I felt cold and alone. I had Boe come lay in bed with me so someone was there but it wasn't the same. I got up alone and put on a grey hoodie that was Scott's, black leggings and ugg boots. I pull my hair into a messy bun and walk down stairs and grab the keys. I don't have a vehicle still. Should I take his bike without asking? I decide to send him a text.

Me: Hey Scott, can I use your bike?

Scott: sure princess, be careful. I love you.

Me: thank you! I love you too.

I️ get onto the bike and head to school. I arrive and people were looking at me. Next thing I know, Leslie and...Rae? Walk up to me. Leslie was the one to speak, considering she's the 'leader'. "Awe, is someone all alone today?" She whimpers and her 'crew' giggle, including Rae.

"At least I'm not alone everyday, like your sorry ass."

"Looks around me Bree, does it look like I'm 'alone' to you?"

"Well leslie, considering that these girls are as fake as your nails, then yes." I say, mostly glaring at Rae. Rae pulls back and slaps me and Leslie slaps me too. If only they knew I fight. I punched Rae and kicked Leslie with all my force. They both fall back and as I'm about to attack again, Jake comes out and grabs me, holding me back.

"Woah woah woah, you okay gorgeous?" He asked me, but Leslie stood up quickly, blushing.

"Yeah, I'm great" she purrs and I cringe. Jake shakes his head a laugh.

"Haha, nice one. I don't think fake people are gorgeous. I was talking to Bree. Bree, are you okay?"

"Yeah, I'd be BETTER if you let me finish though." I say and roll my eyes.

"Well, I know what you can do, I don't want you to have to pay for their fake noses." He grins at the girls.

Jake's walks into the school, like he owns the place, when in reality, it's his first day. Leslie walks up to me. "Listen to me SLUT. You either get Scott, or him. Can't have 'em both."

"First of all," I spit back, " I don't want both, I'm not like you, who tries to get with every guys she sees. Scott is mine and JAKE is my best friend." I emphasize the end, directing it at Rae. She looks hurt but covers it again with this fake bitch act. "If you even THINK about messing with me, just know that that hit I took on you, can get WHOLE lot worse and I don't think you want that. So leave me the FUCK alone and stay out of my life." I say this, looking at Rae. I walk away and go to my locker. This is going to be a LONG two weeks.
