I got home and walked to the kitchen to make tea and crackers, my 2 favorite snacks after school. I found a note from my mom, saying the usual, "Taking boys to soccer practice" or "at work make sure to feed the dogs". This time she claimed to be taking the boys to soccer practice. They were basically always at soccer and if my mom didnt take them, it would be me. It was near soccer camp time, so it was worse because they would come home take their soccer stuff and I have to lug them back and forth to their camp. It was exhausting and I was just glad when it was over. I threw the note away and headed to the "kids room" as my mom called it. When I was little, before Mason was born, Joey, me, and the dogs would run around in what WAS the family room. We managed to break the tv, so my mom took out all breakable items and made it the kids room. Now it's more of the homework, book reading room for me. The boys still like to run around with a soccer ball or basketball, but it's just the way our family works. If there isn't chaos or lots of noise, It would mean I was the only one home or the boys were outside. I got out my book and started reading. I told myself to read 2 chapters then do homework, then that turned to 3 chapters, then 4. By the time I got myself to stop, it was 5:00. My mom would get so mad if she knew I put off homework. I wouldn't get to read for a week! (My punishments always involved not being able to read never something like taking away my phone, I never used it) I heard the garage and rushed to make it seem like I was deep into my homework. I wasn't, I never really liked homework, but I still did it for the grades, and so my mom doesn't chop my head off for it. "Zoë, did you finish your homework?" mom asked. "Well I was working on it but I got confused so I had to go back and read my math book. It IS my first day, mom." I was pleased with my excuse. But my mom wasn't. She found out I was reading my other book and now I won't find out if Bella is team Edward or team Jacob for 2 weeks! (I was total team Jacob btw). Yep I was a fan girl over twilight, one of the stupidest books ever. To be honest, I thought that until I actually read it. It's pretty good for being so made fun of. I managed to finish my homework by 6:00 and I went outside to "my oak". We had 2 floors, and this oak was in front of my window. It had a limb extending right into my room, so if my mom said to go outside and I really didn't want to, bam, I would climb my oak tree. My mom still hasn't figured that out yet. I also keep extra books in a little box I attached to the most leafy part of the tree. I have another set of the Twilight books up there. My mom doesnt realize she has such a smart daughter. I went up to the tree and at first thought I heard some sort of wood eating bug, but realized my phone was vibrating. I got it out of my pocket and probably got 9 texts before being able to read any of them. I read the first one. "Hey Babe, I miss you." Unknown number. "Babe?" Same unknown number. Every single text said babe and something like "I love you" or "I must see you soon." Probably a wrong number or prank. I texted the babe dude and said,"I think you have the wrong number, "babe". I slid my phone onto my window sill and read while I waited for a reply. About 10 minutes later I got a reply saying "Zoë, babe, it ain't no wrong message." Now I was freaking out. "Who is this?" I needed to know so I wouldnt go to school with some fricking stalker sitting next to me on the bus. At dinner that night, I found out it was Dillon, apparently some super football player at our school. I feel like he was trying to impress me, but i'm more regular guy without a giant ego crush. But I did find out a lot about him the next day on the bus....

Thanks for reading my second chapter! Please vote for it, I'm kind of winging it so it will be a bit sloppy for now (I MAY fix it later, probably not though). And comment too!! Tell me what you think, is Zoë going to like Dillon? Will she hate him? Find out when I update next!!!
