Chapter 1

Beep...Beep...BEEP!!!

Before the noise could get any louder, I reach my hand over to the side table to turn it off. With the noise off, silence tries to make me fall asleep again, but I fight it and start getting out of bed. Almost dragging myself across the floor, I made it to my bathroom and looked in my mirror. I knew I shouldn't have stand up late to do that paper. I sigh, and start brushing my teeth. After that's done, I take a shower and get dressed. It was going to be super hot today, so I put on a Disney T-shirt with some denim shorts and started walking down stairs. I groaned very loudly when I reached the kitchen.

"Amber, what's wrong with you? Why are you groaning like that?" My dad asked while finishing up what he was cooking.

"Dad, can I not go to school today? I don't feel so good"

"Nice try kiddo! It's the first day back in school, I'm sure you'll survive" He said while laughing.

"But what if I don't!"

"Then I'm sure Tony will give you so comforting words or something" He continued to chuckle and I just groaned at his comment.

"I've told you a million times that there's nothing between me and Tony"

"Yeah sure, that's what your mom used to say about me. Now look at us"

I just groaned again while face palming myself.

"Hey dad, where's mom anyway?"

"Your mom had to go to work early this morning. Some of the decorations and stuff were coming in late and she had to fix it"

"Oh okay"

My mom was a wedding planner, so she'd be gone at random times and days during the spring and summer, because that's the time she gets the most customers. She really loves her job, and she LOVES talking about it. She even brings home pictures, showing how everything looked together.

"Here you go Am" Dad places a plate with bacon, French toast, and eggs on the table for me.

"Thanks dad" I take a sit and start eating when my phone starts to buzz. I take it out of my pocket to look at the message.

Tony: Heyo!! Come over to my house when you're ready so we can walk to school together! P.S. Sonic :P

I laughed when I saw the last part. He's never going to give up.

When I finish eating my food, I wash my dish and grab my bookbag.

"I'll see you later dad! I'm headed over to Tony's, so we can walk to school together"

"Okay!! You two kids have fun!!"

I just rolled my eyes and walked out the door. Tony's house wasn't that far from mine, but we haven't seen each other since the summer started because him and his family went to Germany to visit old relatives. When I got to the front of his door, I just rang the bell and waited, luckily, I didn't have to wait long.

"Amber! Oh my, it's so good to see you" Mrs. Waters hugged me.

"It's good to see you too Mrs. Waters. How was Germany?"

"How many times do I have to tell you, you can just call me Ann. Mrs. Waters makes me feel old"

"Sorry" I chuckled.

"Germany was nice, but I completely forgot about the different legal drinking age, so you can imagine how much fun Tony had" She said shaking her head.

"I can" I laughed.

I could hear foot steps from behind Mrs. Waters.

"Thanks for getting the door mom! Hey shrimp!" Out popped Tony.

"What do you mean shrimp? As you can see, we're the same height now goof!"

"EEeeehh, whatever! You'll always be shrimp to me" He said waving me off.

Before in middle school, I was only a good 5 feet tall, but as the years went by I'm finally matching Tony's 5'7. When we were about to turn and leave, Mrs. Waters stopped us.

"Tony! Aren't you going to wait for your sister?"

I could hear Tony groaning beside me.

"Yeah, yeah. I will" He said nodding his head.

We stayed in the front of the house talking.

"So..." Tony looked at me.

"So...What?"

"Oh nothing. It's just that, I thought you would remind me about my sister, not my mom"

I sighed and shrugged my shoulders.

"You know your sister doesn't like me"

"Sure...But you like her" He said poking my left shoulder.

"Yes...But we're juniors in high school now. What if I'm tired of chasing after your sister?"

At that moment, the most gorgeous human being I've ever seen in my life walked out of the house. With her long dirty blond hair and beautiful hazel eyes, she was wearing a light pink tank top with some white ripped denim shorts. I'm pretty sure my mouth was open, because the next thing I knew Tony was pushing my jaw up with his hand.

"Ready to go?" Even her voice was beautiful.

"Yes Jessica, we've been ready. We were just waiting for you" Tony said rolling his eyes. And she did the same to him before turning to me.

"Hey Amber" She smiled at me.

"He...Hey Jes...Jessica" I stuttered.

She just giggled before turning around and starting to walk in the school's direction.

"You're tired of chasing her huh?" Tony whispered, smirking at me.

"Shut up!" I said, punching his right arm.

We all started walking to school together. I wish I stayed home today.
