This Is It

Chapter 11

         Shaiden's P.O.V

             The day went by incredibly fast considering I was in the worst mood ever. I still want to know why Harry was talking to Stephanie. He has no right. I was sitting in fourth period when Stephanie texted me. She asked if I wanted a ride to my house with her brother so I didn't have to take the bus. Of course I said Yes. The bell rang to leave fourth which meant school was finally over. I walked downstairs to the main floor and walked out of the door. I stood by the flag pole waiting for Stephanie and Alex.

         "Hey" I said to her when she finally got there. Now we wait on Alex.

         "Hey. So Alex and I are going to drop you off at your house and then I'm going to my house. When I get there Michael and I will come to your house so you can finally meet him. Sound good? I mean if your not you for it-" I cut her off.

         "Of course I'm up for it. I told you I wanted to meet him so bring him over when you want." I smiled. Her brother finally got to the flag pole and we went to his car. We were driving for like 5 minutes.

        "What were you and Harry talking about earlier?" I asked her and she looked at me. "Well?"

         "Shaiden Maybe we should talk about that later. Now is not the time"

        "Okay.." I stopped talking and looked out the window. We finally got to my house and Alex parked in the driveway. "Thanks for the ride Alex."

      "No problem" he replied.

      "I'll bring Michael over in about an hour" Stephanie said as I got out. I told her Okay then walked into my house.

    

       I figured nobody would be home but I heard the tv on so I walked in the living room. My mom was sitting on the couch so I walked over to her and sat beside her. She was watching Girl Code. We always watch this show together..

        "How was your day?" She asked me.

        "Mom it was horrible. Mason broke up with me yesterday. He said the spark was gone."

        "Awe hunny. I'm so sorry. Things happen for a reason."

        "I know mom. But this shouldn't have happened. It's stupid. I didn't even do anything wrong. I bet it's because of Harry. He probably thinks I cheated on him or something." My mom just looked at me listening to me cry.

       "I'm really sorry to hear this. I know you really liked him but things will get better. It'll take a few days but, just give it time. And remember I'm always here to talk."

        "Thanks mom."

        "Of course. Can I get you something to drink?"

        "Tea would be great actually." I told her and she made her way to the kitchen.

         "What do you want for dinner tonight? Since I'm home, I guess I can cook. I'm thinking steak, mashed potatoes, and corn. Sound good?"

         "Sounds great mom. My favorite. And is it OK if Stephanie and her friend Michael eats dinner with us tonight?"

         "Who's Michael?" I knew that question was coming.

        "Well you know how her parents let her to go Australia?" She shook her head "Well she met Michael there and I suppose they hit it off. Her parents are letting him stay with them for a while because he's always wanted to come here or something along those lines."

        "Oh. Well Yea That's fine. They can stay" I knew my mom was going to say Yes. She's pretty laid back.

       "Thanks" after I thanked her, there was a knock at the door. I suppose Stephanie and Michael was here now. It's been about an hour. I walked over to the door and opened it. They were standing outside, on my doorstep, making out. Gross. Could they not?

        "Hello? Earth to Stephanie." I said causing them to stop.

        "My bad shaiden. This is Michael. Michael, this is my best friend Shaiden " 

        "Hi Michael. Come in in you two." I moved out of the way and they walked in. Michael looked amazed. I guess by the size of my house.  "Mom! Michael and Stephanie are here we are going to my room" I yelled and we started walkig upstairs.

       "Wow this house is huge! I've never seen anything likw it before" Michael said in Awe.

       "Thanks. My mom is a doctor and my dad is a lawyer. They make a lot of money." I said. We got to my room. I sat on my bed and Michael and Stephanie sat on the couch. My room was really big. I had a queen sized bed, 2 dressers, a huge walk in closet, and 2 couches. My walls were blue, couches were white and my bed spread was blue. "So Michael, tell me a little about yourself."

       "Well I grew up in Sydney Australia, I'm 18 years old, I'm in a band with my mates Luke and Calum I play the guitar. I love pizza. My favorite movie is camp rock. I like to dance but I'm not good at it at all. I've never been to a concert before, I can't live without my computer and if I were ever to learn to play another instrument, it would be the flute."

         "The flute?" I asked trying to keep my laughter in

         "Yeah. I love the way it Sounds."

         "I can not see you playing the flute" Stephanie chimed in. I couldnt either.

         "So do you have any brothers or sisters?" I asked him.

          "No but I wish I had some. Do you have any siblings?" He asked me.

          "Nope. Just Stephanie. She's been in my life so long, we are Basically related." I told him and smiled. I'm so lucky to have such a great friend like her. You don't find any good friends these days. I mean I have other friends but I would never chose them over Stephanie.  "So Stephanie" I started and she looked over at me. "Are you two official?"

           "Um I'm not sure. Are we Michael?" She asked looking at him. His cheeks got red really fast.

          "I guess so" he said smiling.

          "That is not the way you ask someone to be your girlfriend!" She told him. I started laughing.

         "Okay fine." He got down on one knee and took her hand. "Stephanie Noelle Watson, will you be my girlfriend?"

        "Of course I will" she smiled big and hugged him. I laughed I heard my mom call us down for dinner so we all made our way down.

    

         "Wow mom this smells delicious." I told her.

         "Yeah mom it does." Stephanie said. I love how she calls my mom and dad her mom and dad. She truly is part of the family.

         "Ahh so this must be Michael. Nice to meet you" my mom said looking at him. He greeted her back. We started eating dinner and it tasted amazing. It's been a while since my mom has cooked due to her working schedule. We finished eating and then Stephanie and Michael left. I helped my mom clean off the table. I put all of the dishes in the dishwasher while my mom cleaned off the table. 

         "Thanks for the help" my mom said.

         "Of course mom. But I'm done now so I'm gonna head up stairs and get ready for bed. Love you. Good night" and I walked upstairs. I got to my room and changed out of my clothes. I laid in the bed just thinking. I still want to know why Harry was talking to Stephanie this morning. As I was thinking, I felt my eyes getting heavy. I was asleep before I know it.

          "I love you so much. You are the best thing that has ever happened to me" he said to me
           "I feel the Same way. I love you too"

       I shot up out of my sleep. I finally know Who that guy is in my dreams.
