When I got back from the park yesterday I received a text from Colten. I was so excited I made one of those girly squeaky noises and jumped up and down. We texted excessively for hours until I finally fell asleep. I woke up this morning and found a text that said 'goodnight'. He must have gotten the clue that I fell asleep on him. Then soon after I got a good morning text.

I was sitting at the kitchen table texting him while eating a sandwich when my mom came in smiling.

"You seem happier today." She asks but I didn't hear her as I typed up a message confirming to him that I was in fact free tonight.

"What?" I asked, ripping my eyes away from my phone screen.

"Who are you talking to?" She laughed.

"Just some friends." I said and took an enormous bite of my sandwich.

My phone vibrated in my hand. I jumped then checked it but was disappointed to find Harry's name pop up. Without reading it I set it back down on the table. My mom proceeded in making her own lunch.

I haven't given Harry a thought today. My minds been busy with more important people who care about me. Unlike him, that jerk of a player who only wanted me because he was bored.

I'm angry at him but sometimes I miss his touch. His kisses or when he strokes my arm while we watch movies. The little things are what I miss the most. But that feeling goes away when I remember that he was only using me.

Another message came to my phone and I checked the name first. Colten. I was safe.

'Party tonight?'

"Mom, can I go out tonight?"

"If you tell me who your talking to." she challenged.

"Fine, it's a boy I met. Okay? Can I go?"

She gave me a fake gasp.

"Really? Are you finally over..." she stopped before saying his name.

I've been snappy when she brings him up. Not that it's her fault.

"Be back by eleven." she winked.

She trusts me too much. It can worry me at times but I'm not going to be doing anything that bad. Anyway I left out the part about going to a party.

"Whose going where?" Jane asked as she walked in, "oh wait, I don't care." she smiled a bitchy smile and opened the fridge.

"Jane!" my mom scolded, "I've had enough of you two, you're sisters and this is not how you should be acting!"

"Mom you don't even know the half of it!" she yelled, took a water bottle and left.

My mom turned to me with her eyebrows raised.

"Don't look at me," I defended, "I haven't said a word to her."

I heard whining then felt a paw on my thigh. Captain was sat next to my chair begging for food. I waited for my mom to storm off with her sandwich to pull out a piece of turkey and give it to him. He swallowed it whole.

"Where's this party again?" I asked Colten as we drove farther from town.

"It's my buddy's parents house, they're on vacation so he's throwing a huge party."

"How much further, we've been driving forever."

"I'm not an axe murderer El," he laughed, "I promise we're almost there."

I know he's not an axe murderer, but I hardly know him. And just in case I keep a good sized pocket knife in my purse at all times, to parties, walking home at night, I even have it on me at school.
