Lovers at heart

Chapter 3

It's been three days since that very questioning day. Which means its Friday ( woop woop). Which means double-date night. That's where me and Cody, Amelia and Alex, Sophie and Stewart and a couple of Codie's football buddies and there girlfriends go out on a date together.

But I go out in the backyard since I have two hours until Cody picks me up. I go to mine and graham a tree. Graham is the boy that lives next door. He's like one of my best friends. He moved here three years ago. So, I go out to our tree. It's called this because when Graham's was first moving in my daddy was building me a treehouse . And when he was all done unpacking his stuff, my daddy finished the treehouse. So it's called our tree because, I like to say it never would have got finished if he hadn't moved here.

As soon as i get out to the tree house I hear a sliding glass door shut. That means Graham. He comes and we both say "hi" at the exact same time. "Jinx" I say. He immediately stops laughing. I ask him how his day was, but he doesn't say anything. Then I remember I say graham three times. He then starts talking about how there is this new kid at his school. He talks about how his name is jack and he is really good at basketball. He stops talking when he looks at me. "I just realized something" is what I say. Graham isn't one of those guys that gets all awkward if you talk to him about boys. You can talk to him about anything. " Cody hasn't talked to me in three days," I tell him. " Are you sure?" "He hasn't even texted me, he didn't even talk to me about tonight I just assumed." " He'll come he has probably just been busy with football practice."

You want to know the worst part of that? The worst part was that my assumption was right. Cody didn't come and Cody always comes. So it's now 8:00 on that very night. Graham and I are still in the tree house. His parents and my parents went out for Friday night dinner. I started crying when Cody didn't come an hour after he was supposed to. But instead of graham calling me a crybaby he gave me a hug and told me it was ok. And then I had an idea. Since obviously Cody and I weren't going out, why don't I go see a movie with graham. So I ask him " You wanna go see a movie?" "you sure?" he says. " Ya come on it will be fun!" " Alright" he says.

So we are at the movies. We are watching divergent. Then after the movie Grahamn takes me home. When we are in the car my phone lights up. "Who is it?" Grahamn asks me. "It is Cody he told me hi and that he was sorry he missed our date he forgot." I tell Grahamn. "Bullcrap you don't forget about your date with a girl." "Well apparently he does." I tell him." We pull into his driveway, I say goodnight and walk to my house. At twelve I hear footsteps and whispering and then a door click shut. I can't sleep so since I'm on the second floor there is a tree right outside my window. I open my window and pop my screen out. I grab onto a tree branch and get in the tree. I hear shuffling and I look at Graham's roof. There is a person on his roof! Then the person moves and the moonlight shines on their face. It's Grahamn. I get my phone and text him.

"I didn't know you could go on your roof!"

"What how did you know? wait nevermind I just saw your tree move. Come on over."

"Ok"

I climb a tree branch up to my roof. Then I hop over to Grahamn's, since our roofs are so close. I sit down next to him. "The sky is beautiful tonight." " Ya it is." he tells me.

After a little while of talking I went back into my bedroom and fell asleep . The next morning I wake up and see him there. My real dad.
