A girl named Daisy who just moved to California and lived in her uncle's house. She faced a lot of family drama and not to mention, she's going to the same highschool as her ex.
shit. i didn't know what to say and wasn't ready either.
"Alex!!! Daisy!! Come down for lunch." thank God marilla called us. if not i'd be dead explaining the whole thing.
we came down and went to the dining room. marilla made us spaghettis and meatballs. just then, i heard the door bell rang.
"Can you please open the door, Daisy?" marilla said. i opened the door and i saw in front my eyes the most beautiful guy i'd ever seen. he's about 6.2 feet and he's so tall compared to the girl standing in front of him with only 5.4 feet. he had blue dreamy eyes with a cute nose and a rosy,thick lips to match with. bushy brows and sharp jawlines to complete his beauty. his hair was a little bit long and he was wearing a denim jacket and a black shirt under it. he was standing really straight and got a good posture. i was mesmerized and i couldn't say anything. this is Calum lmao.

"Helloo.. hello?" he said while waving his hands.
oh god, i'm so stupid.
"Oh yeah, you must be Calum. I'm Daisy." i said as i pulled out my hand in hoping he would shake hands.
"Daisy, who? I never heard of you."
"Come in, come in everyone." alex appeared suddenly as he put his hand on my shoulder.
"Alex!" i said as i felt weird him touching my shoulder. "What?" he answered. "Your hand, please." "Sorry." he put his hand down. we all came in and sat on the dining table.
"Hey Calum, nice to meet you. How you doing?" marilla asked. "I'm doing great thanks for asking." calum answered shortly.
"Alex, I need to talk to you for a while, now." marilla said. alex looked shocked and he obeyed his mom and went upstairs with her.
it was just me and calum sitting at the dining room. there's this face of observing something on calum's face. there's a one minute silent session and i decided to start a convo.
"So, what do you like to .." calum put his hand on my lips, telling me to stay silent. "Shush."
i noticed that he was eavesdropping the conversation between alex and his mom.
i decided that it would be nice to follow what he did.
"How many times should i tell you?" marilla said in a high pitch and sounded angry. "What's wrong with Calum?" alex said as he sounded annoyed. "There's nothing wrong with him. You are the one who's wrong Alex." "Why me?" "Dad tells us dozens of times that he doesn't like when your friend comes over to often." "But it's just Calum and we never make any noises." "Whatever." "Fuck Dad." "Now I don't have time to argue with you. Let's go down." she paused and she walked down the stairs. "Respect Dad." alex rolled his eyes and bit his lips. calum and i looked away and busied ourselves.
"Sorry for making you all to wait, you can eat now and I'm not hungry actually." marilla said with a cold face as she gritted her teeth. alex sat next to me and he spooned out some pasta and the meatballs for me. such a gentleman.
"Thanks." i said as i blushed. now if you really think i like him, i do. but not in a romantic way. he's cute he's sweet but i just didn't know about him anything. he could be this bad boy that treat all girls nicely and play with everyone's feelings. i'm not hoping much. while calum on the other side, he looked real and raw. he looked like a nice guy but he's a little cold at some point. i kinda had a crush on him.
"I believe we haven't introduce ourselves properly." calum said as he was mixing the spaghetti.
"Well I'm Daisy Marie and I'm 16 years old and I'm going to be a junior this year." i said in the most coolest way i could ever speak.
"Calum. 17 and a senior. And also Alex's bestfriend." he said coldly.
"So I got a lot of explaining to do, Calum." alex said.
"What's that?" calum raised his eyebrows. he looked so cute.
"Long story short, Daisy is actually my cousin but not blood related because you know. it's from my stepdad. And she's going to stay here until she graduates school which means for 2 years. The reason why she move here.. eh I don't really know."
"Well, I got accepted in Southwood High and my old school just was not my type at all. And my mom, she's.." i stopped, should i tell them?
"She what?" calum asked, he seemed to care.
"She wants to sell Dad's house because she needs money and she'll be renting a small apartment for a while. My Dad died like 3 months ago so my mom just thought the house was too big for both of us. But i moved so that means I can lower down the costs of our life, I guess. And your father Alex," i said while i'm smiling and turning myself to him.
"Is very kind and he helps us a lot for giving a permission to stay here. I want to thank him but I haven't seem him around. Where is he?"
"He's always like this. He only comes back home on weekends. He's always working and sleeps at the hotel. I don't know what he's doing." alex said coldly. i could he's brows furrowed as he spoke.
there were 10 minutes of awkwardness in the air. calum ate really fast and he put his plates on the sink. i finished my lunch and did what calum did.
"You guys can go upstairs. I'll meet you all at the balcony. I just need some fresh air." alex said suddenly.
he got out of the seat with his mouth full of food and then walked outside.
calum shook his head and went upstairs, i followed his steps until we reached the third floor. we went to the balcony, admiring the city view. it was really windy and calum looked a bit cold.
"Do you want to get in?" i asked. "Do you know why?" he answered with a question. "Why what?" i was confused. "Why Alex is always like that?" "You're confusing me." "Alex hates his stepdad." "I can totally see that." "His stepdad is a big liar." "What? Why?" "He said he loves Alex's mom but he's never at home." "You don't have the right to judge him." "Well, I saw it. In front of my eyes." "Saw what?" "His stepdad with my mom." "What the hell?" "Fuck it. I just tell you when I shouldn't tell anyone." he left and he went downstairs. i suddenly heard a bang on the door.
"What's wrong with him?" alex said as he was climbing the stairs. "I don't know."
