SHIT....

I cannot believe that just happened.

What the hell was I thinking, I should have been watching where I was going, but he also should have been watching where he was going.

Now, I am hiding in the bathroom like an idiot. He probably went to class already. And it is definitely to late for me to go to class since there is only 5 minutes left.

With that in mind I decided to walk to Casey's car and wait for him in the parking lot. Realizing I didn't have the car keys I decided to text him.

---

Me: Hey I'm by the car so please hurry because it is cold out here.

Casey: Wtf are you doing at the car???

Me: It's a long story

Me: I will tell you about it later

Casey: Well Mr. Matthews is letting us out now so I will be right there

Me: Ok

"Hey fina..." I was about to say hey when I saw him, I was quickly drawn into a daze by the sound of the same husky deep voice from earlier, "Well hey there princess."

Tyler looked at me with such ease in his eyes, my knees almost buckled right their from just his look, what the hell was wrong with me. I was quickly drawn out of my own thoughts by Casey deciding he needed to ask questions at this very moment.

"Um, does anyone want to tell me what is going on?"

Tyler replied, "Yeah sure, I asked you where Josie was because she may have taken some of my notebooks earlier when..." then Casey rudely and suddenly interrupted him with, ''Earlier!? What do you mean earlier?"

"Well I was going to say when she ran into me dropping my stuff everywhere." Tyler says looking at me with a sarcastic smirk on his face, and in that moment I may have gotten a little to mad.

" I ran into you! I think not you were the one running down the hall like an imbecile, not watching where you were going!"

"Hey princess calm down no need to get so upset I just wanted my notebooks back."

"And would you stop calling me princess?"

"Not going to happen... Princess"

"Uh, forget this, Casey lets go."

Casey hurried to unlock the doors and start the car, and just before we were about to leave I heard Tyler yell, "What about my stuff," I ignored him and Casey proceeded to drive us back to my house.

When we finally got to my house, we went inside and I started making a snack for me and Casey when he turned to me and asked, " Girl what the hell was that all about?"

I then rolled my eyes and proceeded to tell him what had happened earlier that day he started to make fun of me when he found out that I hid in the bathroom after the incident, and then slapped me in the arm when I told him about me pushing Tyler off of me so I could get up and run away.

"What the hell did you hit me for!?" I yelled at him, holding my arm in pain.

"Because you are dumb as fuck for pushing him off of you, if it was me I would have pulled him closer."

"Well I'm not you and, I got scared ok. You remember how bad I had a crush on him before, plus Victoria would make my life a living hell if she found out about what little thing even happened today between us. You know how she is."

"Honey she already makes your life a living hell."

"I know, but I don't want it to get worse."

"Yeah I know but she is just a dumb bitch who is all over Tyler when he clearly doesn't like her, and you know they are not together. She is just crazy as fuck."

"Exactly my point she is crazy and would kill me!" I said with my hands waving everywhere for the dramatic effect.

"Girl you need to chill lets just go watch a movie maybe take you mind off of everything."

"Ok that sounds manageable," I chuckled.

Then Casey and I both said in unison "The Breakfast Club..."

We then got a bunch more snacks, made our way to the living room, popped the movie into the DVD player and, started watching our favorite movie. 

Midway through the movie Casey got a call from his dad saying he had to come home. He apologized to me and said he would see me in the morning.

In the realization that I was now alone my mood sank a little.

I was about to turn off the movie when I heard a knock on the door.

When I got up to look through the peep whole I saw Ms. Robin so I opened the door and let her in. When she came inside she had this huge red casserole dish, she then looked at me and said, "I decided to make your favorite casserole for dinner and thought we could have eat together tonight."

I smiled widely at her and walked over to the kitchen to get plates, silverware and napkins. We then sat down at the table and started eating.

She proceeded to ask me, "How do you like the casserole?" 

"It is lovely as always Ms. Robin." I said with a mouth full of food trying to smile at her.

She chuckled from across the table when she notices I had some sauce on my nose.

I began wiping it off when she asked me about my day.

My mind traveled back to events that took place today. But, instead of going into all the details I just said, "It was good, what about yours?"

"Mine was very nice, thank you for asking." she responded with a smile on her face.

When we finished eating we decided to play one of our favorite table games called Rummikub.

She stayed over for a few more hours after our 7 games of Rummikub.

We then decided to sit and watch our favorite TV shows.

It was always nice when Ms. Robin came over because even though she wasn't my mom, she treated me like a daughter and cared for me. She always made me feel better when she came around.

It's like she knows when I am feeling sad or lonely because she always ends up showing up.

When she left I decided I would just go to bed.
