The Scherer Sister (Colby Brock) *On Hold*

Part 8

1 Week later

Maddies Pov

It's been a week since Corey found out about Colby and I and also about my past. He's been treating me like I'm 2 years old, always asking me where I'm going and who with. Honestly I'm sick of it, that's why I'm so happy that I start cheerleading today.

(If you don't know much about cheerleading then sorry but it's for the book)

After I eat breakfast I change into

I put my hair into a ponytail then order my Uber, no one in the house is awake and even if they were I don't think I would want them to drive me. I haven't talked much or come out of my room except to eat ever since the situation, I didn't want to answer the endless amount of questions that would come from everyone

Time skip to after practice

When I got home I was all sweaty from practice and all I wanted to do was sleep, but as I walked in the door Corey had other plans "Where the hell were you?!" "At cheerleading practice" I said blandly, I really didn't want to talk to him right now. I still didn't fully forgive for what he did "Why didn't you tell anyone" "I'm 18, I don't need to tell you every little thing I do" "actually yeah you do!" I tried walking away because I didn't want to get into a fight with him but he wasn't having it "Don't walk away from me! I'm trying to talk to you" "well maybe I don't want to talk to you" " Why are you so mad?" "Maybe because you won't stop hovering over me like I'm a toddler!" "Im just trying to make sure your ok after everything you went through with da-" I cut him off before he could say anymore " what happened with dad is in the past, and trust me Corey I'm fine. I don't need you to protect me because there's nothing to protect me from" I walked upstairs and to my room, when I'm like this I just need space so I grabbed my guitar and left. Corey tried to stop me but I just walked past him out the door.

When I got to the park there was a lot of people there so I couldn't write but I could perform. I got my guitar out and started to sing one of my favourite songs on the guitar

When I was done I looked up and saw a big crowd clapping around me but one person caught my eye, Corey.

After the crowd left Corey can up to me "I didn't know you could sing that well!" "I didn't really want people to know..." "Why?!" "I was scared of what people would think" "Maddie" I tried to walk away but he asked me to stay "I'm sorry for hovering over you like the over protective brother I am" "it's fine, the past is the past and I'm ok now. I promise." After that Corey pulled me into a hug and we went home

When we got home Colby instantly pulled me to his room "Are you ok?" "Yeah why?" "Well you haven't really talked or come out of your room all week so..." "trust me Colbs, I'm fine" I say putting my hand on his shoulder, he starts to lean in and so do I until our lips connect.

Colby asked me if I wanted to go to dinner with him tonight and I obviously said yes. I got changed into

We got into Colby's car and blasted music the whole way. We pulled into a drive way "I thought you said we were going to dinner" I asked "we have to pick up someone first" I was kinda hoping it would just be me and him but I guess I was wrong.

Colby honks his horn and a man with black hair comes out of the door. He dives into the backseat and Colby and him laugh while I don't see what's so funny. Finally after they have calmed down Colby says "Maddie this is my best friend brennen, brennen this is my.. ah .. friend Maddie" I was kinda hurt that he didn't introduce me as his girlfriend but I guess he didn't want him knowing yet. "Can we go to tender greens?" Brennen asks "sure!" Colby responds while I say "what's tender greens?" They both look at me in shock " only the best restaurant ever!" They say in unison
