Summer Love

12

Joey and I were sittng on the porch eating nothing else but Polish strawberries.You wouldn't find better ones.I enjoyed the sun rays hitting against me and giving me a good tan,while Joey's arms happily occupied my shoulders.

 I haven't recieved a text from Layla since long now.But I know her.It's a part of her stuipid plan.She stops threatning me every so often.And when she leaves me alone for a while she guarantee's herself that I wont commit suicide because if I would she'd be in deep trouble as for everybody knows what she does.What makes her happy.Yet they all pretend not to notice.They'd notice if I was dead...Or would they?The only revenge I could possibly give her would be to kill myself.

''What are you thinking about Iz?You've been staring at that tree for the past  5 minutes''Asked Joey.

''Nothing much''I laughed.We started off into a conversation about yesterday's dinner,when Nana came out.

''Iz,your Mam's on skype.She wants to see you''

''Ok,I'm coming''I answered,dreading it badly.''This is the first time she called since I left''I whispered into Joey's ear before heading towards the computer.

''Do you want me to come aswell or....''he asked.

''You might aswell.She will have to find out some day''I answered.Joey knows what my mother is like.I deepened him into all this the other day.

I walked into the room and saw that fake smile on her face.She was staring right into the ceamra.Great;I thought.I sat in front of the computer,with Joey right behind me.

''Hello Honey.How are you?Are you ok after the flight?''she asked as if she actually cared.

''Hi Mum,yeah I'm fine''I answered coldly.I knew that  she's sooner or later gonna ask who's that boy sitting behind me.

''And tell me,who's that boy there sitting behind you looking rather nervous?''

I swallowed slowly.Before I told her the truth I glanced at Nana to make sure I'm doing the right thing.She gave me a nod.As if that was enough for me...

''Mum,dont get all angry but....eh...It's Joey''

''Ok but that doesn't explain why he's in Nana's and Grandad's house does it?''

''No''

''Well would you mind explaining?''

'He's my boyfriend''I said quietly.Suddenly the room that we were all in started to move.My eyes got dimmed and I was drifting off.The only thing I could feel was Joey's hand firmly holding my back.Good,he figured out what was happening.Although I could hear my mom's angry voice,I couldn't make out what she was saying.And I didn't want to either.

 When I got myself back together(unfortuntly)mum was shouting at Nana.Too much.

''Mom!How could you ever let my 15 year old daughter have a boyfriend!''She shouted into the computer screen I presume.

''Anna,you can't just keep her away from everybody''Nana protested.

''Mum''I nipped in.''It's not Nana's fault so leave her alone ok?As to Joey,I'm happy with him and if you ever bothered to care you'd know that''

''Isabel!For God's sake!Your 15!''

''But I love him...I whispered with tears in my eyes..

''Right.I'm coming over tomorrow.And you pack.I'm bringing you back home''

And with that she disconnected.I looked at Joey.Then at Nana.

''Iz are you alright?You nearly fainted.''Joey asked,being the sweet and caring him.The sweet and caring Joey that I'd have to leave tomorrow...Tears swelled up in my eyes.I couldn't leave him.I just couldn't.
