  " Stupid, conceited, arrogant, jerk" Some of the htings I mumbles as I walked down the road, after being kicked out of my own home. How dare he? Is Cambria really this important I mean come on! So here I am walking and walking and walking for about a hour. Regardless of the fact that's it's good for me, I'm bored. I couldn't even grab like a book or something.

   "Someones angry!" A unfarmiliar voice, noted. I turned around to see a guy with blond hair and a tall structure, standing behind me. I've never seen him but he probably goes to our school. "Jackson," 

   "Amanda," He stuck out his hand so I shook it, very gentlemen like. "Do you live aroud here?" 

   "Yeah, I live in the street over but I jog hear all the time. You go to my school right? I'm in level two so I don't think I'd know you," I couldn't help but take in his ocean eyes. 

   "Yeah grade nine, actually," 

   "Yes! That's where I know you, you are dating Jesse right?" Excuse you?

    "No we aren't. Um, he not- We just aren't together," Awkward pause "I hate him," Made even more awkward. Leave it to me to make a extremely attractive, speciment of the male species stand there uncomfortable, just staring at everything but me.

   "Well I should get going but, here's my number," Handing me a sheet of paper, "Call me sometime if you're ever lonley and wanna hang out!"  

   "Wait, you just carry things around with your number on it?" He nodded in agreement " Do you make these with your adress as well?" 

   Chuckling, he insured me, he doesn't own those. After saying our goodbyes I turned back home, slightly more joyful.

 -------------------------

   After a uncomfortable ten minutes of sitting in my room listening to Cambria and Jesse laughing and flirting, she finally left. Hallelujah. I'm so bored. Sam is busy, she has family visiting and I'm all alone. 

   Eyeing at the sheet of paper next to my bad that Jackson, has offered me, I picked up my phone and dialed the number.

   "Hello?" His voice is so cute.

   "Hi, It's Amanda"

   "Amanda!" He says sounding excited "What can I do for you?"

   "I was thinking about thinking about your request. Do you wanna hang out?" 

   "Yes! We shoudl go somewhere like to eat?" I needed to think where I wanted to go, obviously I waited to long, "Or- Or not. We can always do something else. We don't have to eat!" 

   "No, no eating is fine. How about taco bell or something simple?" 

   We agreed and he would be here to pick me up in fifteen minutes. I pulled my hair down to frame my face, threw on a little extra lipstick and mascara. I wore a purple plain t shirt, with my black skinny jeans and my black and white flats. Call me simple, but it is just taco bell after all. 

    Hearing the honking of a horn I ran downstairs to see Jesse curled up on the couch watching 'that 70's show'. He's such a girl.

   "Where are you going?" He asked, suddlenly concerned about where I'm going and my well being. 

   "Why does it matter to you?" 

   "I wanna know where you are going so I know you're safe," 

   "Because you were so concerned half hour ago when you sent me to wonder on the streets alone," before he could say another word I slammed the door and walked into Jackson's car. After arriving at the resturaunt we took our orders and sat down.
