Mind Over Matter (Cethany)

Chapter 4

Connor's pov

"The third date explains everything."

"Andrea, This isn't Zoey 101 and you aren't Lola." Beth said clearly annoyed, just like me "It's literally at his 4 year old brother's birthday."

"I thought we were studying at yo-''

"That means he likes you enough to bring you to meet his family." Andrea said cutting me off. God, I am so annoyed this has been my day. Sam and Beth did this, Sam and Beth are doing this. She can't even tak to be because they're talking about Sam.

Not everything is about her and Sam.

We have real issues people around the world are starving, I'm starving. I walked past them onto my bike and drove home. I finished cleaning my room after my break down 5 days ago and I'm almost positive my dad was trying to find me a babysitter.

Wouldn't surprise me. I parked my bike before walking to the kitchen and grabbing some chips. What's the point of doing homework when you can't understand it? Besides it's Friday. Chances are there was a big party but I had other plans which included another party.

"Why are just staring at the fridge?" Dorota asked.

"No reason."

"Oh well, Anything new?" She answered and followed with a question.

"Yeah, I became a dad."

"Wouldn't surprise me." She mumbled as I rolled my eyes and pulled in my headphones and walking around the house. For a big house this place was boring, which is possibly why I like Beth's house more. It was slightly smaller but more fun.

I laid on the couch and looked up at the ceiling. What do people do when they are bored anyways? It's not like I could do homework or text someone. I looked over at my clock, How was it already 5? We just got out of school.

I pulled off my headphones and threw away my trash as Dorota stood looking at something. Oh well, I grabbed a water bottle as she whispered something. I looked back at her before throwing my shoes by the door. Now time to drown my time in music or Netflix, preferably both if that's possible. I wish. Maybe one day. Hopefully.

"Why are you just standing there?"

"Because I am." I responded.

"Well I'm trying to mop so can you not be here?"

"Umm, Yeah sure." I said awkwardly while running up the stairs to my room.

Bethany's pov

I ran my fingers through my curls before adding hairspray. It took me forever to get my hair and makeup to look good. It hit me as soon as I walked inside that I was meeting his family and I'd rather make in impression then look like a pig.

All I really knew about this was that it was at his house and it was a birthday party for Levi. I spent a long time in the kid isle in Target searching for a gift before going with Nerf gun. They were cool so might as well. Even though Sam said it didn't have to I felt really bad.

It took me forever to wrap that thing with no mistakes. I looked at my bed looking at my outfit. I threw on the purple maxi skirt and cropped black tank top. I grabbed some black flip flops and the gift before walking downstairs.

"Trevor is this too much?" I asked.

"Not really, If you weren't my sister I'd date you."

"Okay then." I mumbled.

"I said if your not my sister."

"Whatever. I'll be out, I'll be home before 8 and if you get hungry there's a 20 in my wallet." I said before kissing him cheek "Don't burn the house down."
