Trapped in Ophelia's Body

I think they just might like him...

Song: Your the one by Kodaline

Not texting him back is killing me. I don't bother eating dinner and mom and my dad were not happy about that but I really don't care. I want to stay in my room for the rest if my life but for the second time my dad knocks on the door this time he opens it.

"You need to come eat," he says calmly with that more caring dad attitude and I know he just wants me to eat something before I start feeling really sick.

"Why?" I ask without looking up at him.

"Ophelia you know you need to eat a little something so you can take your meds or you will feel bad."

I roll my eyes under the blanket so he can't see me.

"Ophelia...come on get up."

I roll out of bed and walk behind him to the kitchen. I sit at the table and the whole time I play with my food with my fork.

"Can I at least text him to tell him I'm grounded."

They both look at each other and made some kind of agreement without saying a word. He hands me my phone. "Just to tell him and that's it...got it."

I try not to roll my eyes at that because I'm afraid that if I do he will take it back away.

Ophelia: I'm grounded! 2wks for leaving school.

Kodiak: You're kidding right!!!

Ophelia: I wish. So they will be taking me to school.

Kodiak: You can't be serious!!! This is my fault not yours.

My dad motions for the phone back. I text one more time.

Ophelia: And grounded from phone this is my last text. C U at school. Love you.

I'm about to hand over the phone when it dings so I hurry up and look at it.

Kodiak: Damn!!! This sucks. OK love you too.

I want to smile at that last part but I'm still too upset with my parent's decision. I mean really don't you think they are being a little bit too dramatic about this. I take a few bites of food and then request to go to bed. I don't bother doing my homework.

The next morning I get up and hurry up and get ready for school only because I want to get there to see him. I grab a fruit bar and head out the door and wait in the car for my mom. She on the other hand takes her time. When she comes out she looks at me. "Are you in that big of a hurry?"

"Yes...let's go." I look out the window the whole time. She turns up the radio and is trying to get me to sing along with her but I just have my mind on one thing and that is seeing him. When she pulls up I get out and don't bother saying bye when she does. Instead I slam the door and walk off. When I get into the school he is already there standing by out lockers.

"I'm sorry for getting you in trouble." He leans in to kiss me.

"You didn't...I'm the one who went it's not like you had me at gun point or anything." I smile at him and then open my locker to get my math book out.

"So two weeks...damn."

"I know right."

"Do you realize school will be out in two week?"

"No...haven't even thought about it but then we can see each other all summer long." I smile as he takes my hand to walk me to our first period class.

The morning goes by pretty fast and before I know it, its lunch time. We both go to the art room so that we can be alone.

"So how is that sculpture coming along that you have been working on?" I ask him as I sit down at the table.
