Summer's POV
School again, after yesterday I never wanted to return, we had gone back to Carlson's him getting annoyed about my ever fidgeting over what movie we should watch when we got back to his, I had settled on one of my favourites 'Now you see me' he was surprised thinking that I would have picked some chick flick, I kindly pointed out to him for the second time that I wasn't like most girls. I actually ate food, I watched many movies and of course I've played my fair share of video games.
I had spoken with my mum when we got home about why I had a beaming smile on my face and she was over the moon that I had finally found a boyfriend, mainly because my mum used to be Lauren and had her first boyfriend by the time she was twelve so she was beginning to get worried that I was incapable about getting a boyfriend. My mum ladies and gentleman, We spent about an hour or two talking about the events of the day and my mum was fan girling about the entire thing, my dad found it amusing when he got home but went all over protective when he realised that I wasn't his baby girl anymore, such a sad moment for him.
Carlson was going to be coming over after school to meet her as she had the day off, something about having a doctor's appointment in the morning and not wanting to go back, she acted like a teenage wanting to get a day off of school, Sammy reminded me of her so much apart from Sammy was still very much a virgin or at least she was until she met Aaron but I do NOT want to know. I met up with Carlson for English, we ended up not doing a single thing so I had to copy notes off of Sammy though I would have to ask her at lunch what was up, there was something bothering her she never took down notes but I was in such a selfish mood that I never asked her about it.
Lunch time arrived after an hour so I rushed to our table to see Sammy with tears in her eyes, I am such a bad best friend I should have asked her earlier, if it was my brother I swear to god I would tears his god damn eyes out. "Sammy, what's wrong?" She looked startled to see me there then just burst into sobs of tears, people started looking at us so I brought her out of there so she wouldn't feel too embarrassed or have too many people butting their noses into where they aren't wanted. "My dad, no one’s heard from him they don't know whether he's alive or not." My eyes widened, I really wish she would have told me, "He'll be fine, we know your dad he's not even scared of that snake that attacked him at the zoo anymore!" I got a small laugh out of her as we remembered her dad's face when this HUGE yellow snake came slithering towards him, he looked like he was going to pee himself it was a great day. One of the few that we had shared with her dad!
"Aaron's coming round mine tonight to make sure that mum and I are okay," A bright smile lit up her face, they were truly made for each other, I smiled at her telling her that she deserves that, after reassuring her until the end of lunch that her dad would be alright I got on with the rest of the day not seeing her again as she went home claiming that she was ill, I really hope her dad is alright because I would hate to see Sammy and her mum go through any sort of pain, it was hard enough going through the thought of him not returning.
"Hey baby, are you sure your mum isn't a psychotic that is going to kill me?" He had been asking me silly questions about my mum all day but it never stopped being funny, I hadn't told him a thing about my mum not even answering his weird questions which just increased his panic, it was amusing to see him so worked up about meeting my mum. He was panicking about not being liked by the women that brought me into this world, he was really weird sometimes, one of the perks I think that he has, if I was going out with a normal person I can only think of how bored I would be with them. You have to have some excitement!
Carlson's hand held a death grip on my hand, I hadn't actually realised just how nervous he was about this whole thing but it's too late to calm his worries now as we would stood in the hallway of my house while my mum raced downstairs. Now I have known my mum all of my life, of course, but what happened was not something that I had been expecting. She raced down the stairs with the loudest footsteps I've ever heard and my dad and brother are not the smallest, she then proceeded to jump into Carlson's eyes and kiss him on the cheek! "Oh my lovely future son in law," Carlson's hand was no longer in mine while he tried to balance himself from my mum's attack, I had never seen her act this way before she was acting like a five year old seeing their dad after months without him, my face was one of shock horror.
"It's Uhm nice to meet you ma'am." Oh no, he didn't, he called her ma'am the last person that had done that had received a slap round the face while she repeatedly claimed that she wasn't old enough to be a ma'am though she surely was, she was 45 for crying out loud, when were you old enough to be called ma'am? Though she continued to surprise me...
"Oh aren't you polite, it's nice to meet you too young man, and you sure are handsome, please call me Carly." What was she on?
Turns out my mother had taken a few sedatives for the pain in her stomach, apparently they were a tad too strong and we had to deal with a looney mum all day and her food? I don't even want to go there, normally she's a good cook but I actually had to retire to bed early from feeling sick.
