After eating lunch, I read my textbooks in advance because my parents kept telling me to. But some of the textbooks are boring, so sometimes I hide my phone underneath the book and use it but when my parents go to my room, they won't see the phone so they'll think I'm reading.

I streched my arms as I finished 'reading my book' and yawned. It's one in the afternoon already and I don't know what to do. I'm not in the mood for stalking. I wanna have fun. I looked at Thomas in my window. He's reading his textbook. I just stare at him for a while. Still bored.

I text my friends on my contacts but they're all busy. Then I was about to text Lexi when suddenly my phone vibrates. I saw that it was a message from Lexi. It read:

"Hey girl! You bored?"

"Yeah! Reading textbooks is boring!" I replied and clicked send. By the way, Lexi and I got close through the last few weeks by social media and texting.

After a few seconds she replied.

"Wanna hang out?"

"I'd love to! Where will we go?"

"Where do you want? Mall? Amusement park? Movie theater?"

"We can do all of them one at a time, can't we?"

"Sure! Why not? It's still early."

"So get ready! We're meeting at the mall at 1:30 'kay?"

"Yeah. Can't wait!"

"Same here!"

"See ya!"

I didn't reply anymore as I changed my clothes and put what I need in my bodybag. When I went downstairs I told Mom about it and she agreed but I should be home early so we could eat dinner together.

*Fast forward*

At the mall, Lexi and I decided to go to a ice cream parlor and eat ice cream. Mine was chocolate and hers was cookies and cream. We explored the mall as we ate our ice cream while talking and laughing. Then we're quiet, but not awkward.

I feel like she's been my friend for a long time. Like I'm so close to her. I don't know why. I shrugged that thought off and talked to her again.

"Hey, ready for the amusement park?"

Her once poker face lit up and she smiled. "Let's go!", she said then grabbed my arm and ran to the exit. My ice cream almost spilled on me.

We finished our ice cream on the cab we're riding.

When we reached the park, we can't decide which ride first. Finally, we both decided to ride the rollercoaster first, then the star frisbee, then the ferris wheel, then we will try the carousel, and buy some food. Then we started going to the rides.

The rollercoaster was fun, we rode it like three times, the star frisbee makes me kinda dizzy, but we still rode it two times, in the ferris wheel and carousel we we're shouting(mostly Lexi) and laughing, so we we're given weird looks, even from the children, but still rode both three times.

Our voices we're almost hoarse because of shouting, plus I think the eating of sweets makes it worse, but we ate anyway and turns out we still have our voices, so my theory is wrong.

"It's-", I cleared my throat because my voice is a little hoarse. "Cinema time!", I continued with my normal voice.

She cleared her throat before saying, "Yeah! To the movie theater!"

So we called a cab and went to the theater. We both agreed to watch X-Men: Days of Future Past. We went inside after we paid and bought popcorn. The movie started after a few minutes. The characters are cool.

The movie ended at exactly 6:00pm.

"Charles Xavier is cool! Every mutant is cool!", Lexi exclaimed.

"Yeah! I feel like I want to be a mutant too!", I said happily.

And we babbled about the movie on the way home. Well most of it was her. But I know we're both tired.

When I went inside my house, Mom, Dad and William are watching T.V. We ate dinner a few minutes after they saw me. Then I went upstairs to take a quick shower and wore my pjs. I went downstairs to join them watch again. Then when they watched a show that's boring for me, I used my phone.

I went to bed early than I use too, 8:00pm, because I want to browse stories on Wattpad and read. Also because I'm tired. Before I know it, I already fell asleep.

I woke up at 7:30 am the next day. I feel like there's a mask on my face. I went to the bathroom and looked at my face. It was full of colored drawings and doodles and some words. There's only one culprit, my one and only brother.

"William!!", I shouted his name as I opened the door to my room and went outside to the hallway. I knocked on the door of his room.

He opened the door and said, " What do you-", his poker face lit up as he saw my face. He laughed hysterically. "Hahahahaha sis! You look so ridiculous! Hahahahaha- uh oh.", he stopped laughing when he saw me frown and he closed the door.

I groaned loudly as I went back to my room. I tried to read some words written on my face.

" I am really super duper ugly, not true. I am a good person on the outside only, err.. I dunno. I will study hard, what the hell? I will marry Thomas Sangster, hell yeah. Wait what? why is he included in my face? did that sound right? now I'm talking to myself. ", I told myself.

After washing my face and taking a bath, I went downstairs to eat breakfast.

"Darling, I heard you groan earlier.", Mom said in the middle of my eating. "Why?"

"Uh.. Cause William drew on my face.", I answered as I put my plate on the sink. Then I heard Mom laugh softly. "Mom did you know about it?" Then she laughed louder so I heard her clearly. "Mom!"

"I'm sorry! hahaha We didn't hahaha mean it hahaha!", she said inbetween laughs.

"What?!! Ugh this is what I get for sleeping early?! This is so-Ugh!", I said avoiding to get mad at Mom because, she's my mom.

"Maybe you're really getting married with Thomas in the next few years. Tasha will come here later and have tea with me so I'll tell her to maybe arrange you and him a wedding.", Mom said when she calmed down.

"Mom!!"

"I'm just kidding okay? But Tasha is really coming here and have tea with me."

"Still don't tell her anything about what I do?"

"Nah. I told her already when she last came here."

"What? What happened? What do I do now? What if he doesn't talk to me anymore?", I said while panicking a little.

"Calm down Bella. She said she won't tell him until the right time."

I was relieved when Mom told me that. I went upstairs to my room, Thomas' mother coming here again in my thoughts.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A/N I'm crazy right? See what I did about the rides?

Her parents and Thomas' mom knows about her 'stalking', but they didn't tell anyone especially Thomas about it.

I hope this chapter is long enough for you.

What do you think will happen?
