Chapter 12

March 20th

"Dylan," Trevor says seriously.

"What?" I ask him.

"I love you," he says.

"I love you too," I say as I shut the door behind me and leave.

We had just gotten into a fight. Our first fight as a couple. He's pressuring me about having dinner with my pathetic father. He thinks I'll regret it if I don't have dinner with him and give him another chance. Why should I give him a chance though? It's not like he tries to see me.

I pulled up in my driveway. My brother and stepsister, Kallie, were in the yard building a snowman. I sighed, resting my head on the steering wheel. I shut off the car and got out. When I got inside, I grabbed a cookie. Those things are addictive, you have no idea.

I walked into my mom's office to see her doing computer work.

"Hey mom, I'm home," I say standing in the doorway.

"Hey, sweetie. I'll be making supper in an hour so don't fill up on cookies," she says looking up from the computer.

"I'll try not to," I said shoving the last bite of my cookie into my mouth.

I left the doorway, grabbed a pop out of the fridge, and headed to my room.

My room is always a mess. I was too stressed to clean it at the moment, so I just shoved everything into one corner. I plugged my iPod into my speakers and started playing music. I tried doing homework, but it wasn't working out so well. I grabbed my laptop and set it on my bed. I turned off the music and turned on Netflix. I was half asleep, half awake when I heard my mom yell for me.

She had made lasagna. It was the best. After I ate, I went back in my room and unpaused Netflix. I fell asleep around 9:30ish.

March 21st

The first time I woke up, it was 3 am. I checked my phone and seen that I had a text from Trevor. He must have sent it after I left his house.

"I'll see you tomorrow my beautiful princess."

I couldn't help but smile. Even when he pisses me off, he knows just how to make up for it.

I fell back asleep around 3:30. Only to wake up at 6 to get ready for school. I decided today would be a sweatpants, sweatshirt, and hair up in a bun kind of day.

When I got to school, I went straight to my locker to get my books that I needed. Nikkey and Maddie weren't at school yet. They usually show up 5 minutes before the bell rings.

"Hey Babe," Trevor says as he walks up to me.

"Hey," I say putting my books in my locker getting ready to leave.

"Have you been avoiding me?" he asks.

"No, I thought you were avoiding me..." I say, shutting my locker.

"Definitely not. Oh well, wanna do something fun tonight?" he says as we start walking.

"Like?"

"Movie night?"

"No one's going to be at my house, so we can there if you want to."

"That sounds fun. I'll bring the popcorn."

"Alright. See you then," I say giving him a hug and kiss.

"Wait! What time?" he yelled.

"Uhm, 8?" I yell back.

"Sounds good!"

When I got home, I figured now would be a good time to clean my room. I turned music on and started cleaning. By 6 pm, I was finished. Yes, It took me about 3 hours to clean my room. Now that I was all sweaty, I figured I should shower. No one likes cuddling with a sweaty pig that stinks.

I got out of the shower, brush my hair, put running shorts, and a loose t-shirt on, and shoved a stick of gum into my mouth. I decided to order a pizza because I, for sure, am not eating popcorn all night.

I went into the living room and picked out a bunch of movies. Romantic one's, action movies, and horror movies. I heard someone pull up, so just in case it was the pizza guy, I grabbed the $20 out of my bra. I heard a knock on the door and went to answer it.

It was the pizza guy. I gave him the $20 and he left. Just as he was pulling out of the driveway, Trevor pulled up. I left the door open for him. When I put the pizza down he walked in and frowned.

"I thought I was the food person," he said almost whining.

"I'm not eating popcorn all night, and I was craving pizza," I said laughing.

"Oh, okay. Pizza smells really good."

"Yeah."

"But not as good as you do. Did you shower?"

"Yeah, I got all sweaty cleaning my room."

"Orr, someone forgot to shave," he said winking.

"Haha. Keep it up Madison," I said rolling my eyes.

"Did you pick out a movie?"

"No, but I laid a few out," I said as we approached the living room.

"We are soooo watching a horror movie."

"Whatever you say."

Trevor put in a movie that I've never seen before. I didn't even know I had it. It actually kind of tripped me out. Usually, horror movies don't scare me, but this one did. The main girl was inside of her house all alone. She lived in the middle of nowhere. All of a sudden, she heard pounding noises on the windows.

Just then, Trevor and I heard someone knock on the door. It made both of us jump. Trevor paused the movie, and we both got up to go see who was at the door. When we opened it, no one was there. When we looked down, all that was there was a small piece of paper.
