Allison's POV

Today we would have to start on the project. We got in our groups and started to work.

Max got up from his seat, and came to sit next to me.

"Hey."

"Hi." I said mad. I was still pissed that I got paired up with him. I was trying to get away from him, when life was making me get closer to him.

"So....What are we going to do for our project?"

I shrugged, I didn't really know. We were in English class and we had to make a poster and stuff.

"Well, lets just brainstorm." I said.

We worked on the project till class ended and when it did, I knew something bad would happen.

When we got out, I was trying to find Dylan. I need to tell him that I had to work on the project at Max's house. It would get him pissed, but I just want a good grade.

I found him laughing with Gina.

"Hey guys." I said strangely.

"Oh, hey."

"Listen Dylan, I have to go to Max's house to work on the project."

"Yeah okay, I'm gonna work on mine. Bye."

And he left. Did he seriously just ignore me. He ignored me! He didn't even care that I was going to Max's place! Like what the hell!

****

I arrived at Max's house after school. When I rung the bell, no one answered. Is he seriously late or is he trying to get me annoyed.

I waited which felt like forever and nobody came. I finally decided to go home and come back tomorrow. If he didn't want to work on this project, then whatever.

Before I could get off the porch, someone opened the door.

"Hey sorry I was late. I was just preparing some stuff."

"Okay...." I said weirdly. What kind of stuff was he talking about, hopefully it was for the project.

When I got in his house, it looked like his regular house 4 years ago. Same designs with hardwood floor and a cream colored wall.

"How did you even manage to get your house. I thought you sold it when you left."

"Well, we didn't sell it. My dad decided that he wanted to keep it and have it to give it to me when I came back. Pretty sweet right."

"Totally, you get to leave all by yourself without anyone telling you what to do."

Honestly, I wanted to have this kind if life. I love my parents and all but sometimes they get me really upset sometimes and I can't control myself.

We got to his dining room where we brainstormed and talked about the project. We had a few ideas that were pretty good and finally picked one.

We obviously didn't fool around, but we did have our moments for laughter.

We took a break and I went outside to get some fresh air. I was remembering the time when we tricked Alexandra on the whole play project and later on had a water fight.

I was remembering our first date when he asked me to become his girlfriend. I was remembering the times that we had fun.

"Hey.." I nearly jumped when he surprised me from behind.

"I was just wondering if you wanted a snack." I did. I was starving. I wouldn't really eat at school cause their food sucks. They sometimes would have good foods but a lot of times it was bad.

"Sure."

We ate a couple of sandwiches and put our feet in the pool. It was so refreshing and relaxing. We laughed and had a great time.

By the time the sun went down, I decided to go. I told my mom I was gonna be home by 6:00 and it was 8:00. Man I'm dead.

"I gotta go, see you tomorrow." It was pretty dark outside. Honestly, I didn't want to walk alone. Being in the dark by myself in the streets is something I don't like to do.

"Hey, um... I could give you a ride home. I mean, it's pretty dark and well yeah.."

You don't have to tell me twice. I said yes and we took off. During the ride, we were just talking about stuff.

We got to my house in 10 minutes and I am so dead.

"Thanks for the ride."

"No prob." It started to get awkward and I noticed that someone was staring at us in my house. Who the hell would.... Oh my gosh!

"I gotta go, bye."

"Bye."

I quickly ran into my house and I was so happy to see that person.

"Grandma!!!" I haven't seen my grandma in ages. She was the sweetest person ever who always made me chocolate chip cookies that could make your heart melt. She was technically my dad's mother, my real dad.

"Oh pumpkin. I'm so glad to see you again." I could smell the chocolate chip cookies on her, she felt like home.

"So, tell me all about him." Like what?! Who in the world would she be talking about.

"Grandma, who are you talking about." I said a bit confused.

"About that boy that I saw you with. Is he your boyfriend." She must be talking about Max.

"Oh.. He's not my boyfriend. He's simply my....friend boy." I said it so confused. I mean, Max and I are friends, I think we are.

"Your friend boy, well I thought he was your boyfriend. You like cute together." That's a first one.

We ate some chocolate cookies and went to go to bed. My grandma was staying for a few weeks. She told us that her house flooded.

When I went to bed, I was thinking about so many things. My grandma thought that Max and I were a couple, we weren't meant for each other. Right?

I went to sleep, but this time. I was only thinking about Max.

This is starting to get pretty hard to write. I know what I want to do at the end, but right now it's hard. It's a long way to go so, yeah.

I don't really know what to say for a question. Wait... I got one! ☺

Question: What will happen during the project with Allison and Max? Will things change for them, or will they be the same old friends?

I got no bonus question sorry.
