- Joey
Sleep is something I really can't get when something's on my mind. All of these mixed feelings about me and Madison are really frustrating me.

I'm starting to really realize how bad she's getting treated. For the most she minds her business at school. And I feel like her reputation is ruined because of me.

I can't sleep. So I decided to get out of bed and walk to her house.  I see that her mom is sitting on the couch flipping through channels on the tv.

So I climb up to her window. Her curtains are closed and her lights are off. I know she can't be asleep. It's only.... 11:58 pm.

I knock softly on her window a couple times.

I see her lights turn on so I know she's coming.
She opens her curtains and look out.

She looks stuck for a minute trying to figure who I am in the dark but she realizes I'm Joey. She opens the window.

"What's up?" Her wavy brown hair blowing back from the wind.

"I just wanna talk" I say. I have no idea why I'm here. I just want to see her.

"Come in" she walks over to her bed and sits down.

I follow behind her.

"What do you wanna talk about?" She asks.

Suddenly I feel sleepy and I just wanna wrap my arms around her and Lay in bed.

"..... Joey?"

I realize I've been staring at her for a moment now.

"Can we just sleep?" I ask her.

"Sure."

We lay in bed and I wrap my arms around her.
But she brushes them off.

- Maddie
"Goodnight , best friend"
"Goodnight, Madison." He replies.
Friends Is what we are. We aren't a couple. I remind myself.

- early morning time...

Joey's not in bed with me when I wake up so I check my messages.

From Joey
Joey: sorry. I left I had to shower and do other things, I had a Goodnight sleep with you tho
Read at 10:06 am

And from Mikey.
Mikey: hey it's Mikey! Tonight there's a party @ my bro Bryce house. No choice you're coming, pick you up @ 5 pm. Pass me your address.

So I send him my address..

Mom walks in my room.
"Good morning, Alexis wants you at her house to talk and when we get back we will go shopping" she closes the door.

I take a shower and throw on my mom jeans and a plain white crop top and jean jacket with my low top vans.

I walk over to lexis house and welcome myself in.

"Good morning, buddy, where's Lexi?" I ask her 5 year old brother who is sitting on the couch watching tv.

"Up the stairs, in her room" he points upstairs.
"Thanks bud" .

I walk upstairs to her room and she's on her oxygen machine.

When she see me she takes it off and a smile appears on her face.

"Glad you're here!"

"Haha. Me too, whatcha needa talk about?" I ask her.

".... So...." she plays with her fingers.

"... yeah?"

"My life threatening surgery is coming up..."

"Wait what? For what" I asked, confused.

"I'm having heart surgery.."

"Why"

"It's hard to explain" she pats the side of her bed.

I sit with her.

"Will everything be alright?" I asked.

".. I don't know" she starts to cry.

And now I'm crying.

And she looks up and sobs.

"I'm scared" she starts crying really hard.

The hardest I seen her cry.

I hug her really tightly.

- later that day

After hours of shopping with mom and on and off thoughts about joey and Alexis. I throw on a short skirt with the same white crop top and shoes.

I realize it's 5:03 so I head downstairs.
"Mom, I'm going out!" I shout up the stairs.
"Alright, don't be home too late"
"Ok".

I wait outside. Minutes go pass, it's now 5:27. At around 5:30 he pulls up in his car. He honks twice and shouts.
"Hop in!"

I laugh and get in his car.
"Sorry, I had to handle somethings" he says.
I nod.

Not that long of a drive we walk into the house. It's so huge.

"Im gonna get us a drink" he says.
"Ok sure"

I head over to the couch but I see joey.
"What are you doing here?!" He shouts over the loud music.
"Partying with Mikey" I start to do my party dance.
"No way! You gotta go home, Madison"
"I'm not going home" I shout back at him.
"This is a college party! You can't be here, Mikey is not a good person, Madison. Go home."

"Hey, Joey! Nice to see you!" He comes back with two drinks.

Joey walks away.

Mikey hands me weed and drinks and we party.

"I'm having fun!" He laughs.
"Me too!"

We make eyes contact and he leans in.
He's a inch close to my lips when I blurt out.

"Mikey, what are you doing?".

"I was gonna kiss you..." he says.

"No, you don't even know me"

I see joey walking upstairs with a girl that's all on him.

I feel jealousy starting to release its self.

"Mikey, Can you take me home?" I ask.

"Why?" He asks.

"It's really late and I'm tired so please take me home" .

He nods, shaking his head.

I walk outside with him.

He unlocks the door and I get inside his car.

He gets out a cigarette and starts driving.

"Why did you wanna leave?" He asks.

"I'm tired."

"You were just having fun and now you wanna leave, are you bipolar?".

"No, I'm just tired, so please take me home"

He chuckles.
