" next door neighbour?  " I repeated what andrew said.  Oh!  He must be the new neighbour that my dad had been talking about.  That must means that andrew's mom should be staying with him , I missed her so much.  When my mom was still around and andrew hasn't moved,  mom and marie would often bring me and andrew out for some ice cream or we would always have dinners at each other houses on every friday night.  Marie cooks the best steak and fries too,  so once in awhile,  she would ask if I felt like eating steak and fries and she would make them.  Once,  I came home to find Nobody that I started crying because I was afraid of being alone,  just then Marie came over to our house intending to ask my mom about some cooking recipe but because she wasn't home,  she came over and found me alone crying.  She brought me to her home and made me burgers,  they were really good too!  Afterwards,  andrew came back from soccer and started hanging out with me in his room. I had alot of fun that day.  So to me,  Marie is like a second mother to me. 

Looking at the clock,  I still had an hour more before it reaches 9 , I decided to dress casual since I didn't know where drew wanted to take me. 

I decided to wear a black obey muscle tank and short shorts with studs around the pocket since it was a little warm tonight and I didn't want to be sweating all night and I also found my snapback and placed it over my head. Taking a look in the mirror,  I think I looked pretty casual,  just the look I was going for. 

I then walked down to the living room and glanced at the clock,  ten more minutes before 9 , I should Wait outside earlier since I have not nothing to do.  Walking out of the door,  I looked around and saw drew's house lights on,  so I walked over and rang the bell , hoping that Marie would open the door.

" hello dearie " Marie opened the door and greeted smiling warmly before stepping forward to give me a bear hug. 

" MARIE!!!!!  " I Squealed before hugging her tightly back .

" how have you been hunny?  " she asked with concern .

" I'm getting by fine actually , though times are a little different without mom " I gave a weak smile and fought back my tears as I thought about mom. 

" Oh sweetie,  Im so sorry for not moving back sooner to be there for you.  I promise you from today onwards,  you'll have me and drew again.  " she promised. 

" I Hope so too , anyways,  where's drew!  " I smiled brightly .

" oh hunny you're so lucky. After we decided to move back here,  andrew couldn't stop talking about you,  he missed you so badly . The first thing he came home today,  he had a big smile on his face and he asked me to- " before Marie could continue,  drew came into sight and covered his mom's mouth. 

" mom,  stop embarrassing me.  " he coughed and walk over to us. 

" alright alright fine.  " she smiled at us.

" im going out with Keira,  i'll be home late alright ? " he faced his mom and gave her a kiss on the cheek before leading me out of his house to his car. 

We were driving for quite awhile until I noticed all the trees and grass becoming more and more , curious, I asked. 

" um..  drew? "

" hmm " he replied. 

" are you like,  planning to kidnap me and sell me to those scary looking dudes who sell cute girls away to other places for slavery? Because if you are I suggest you turn the car back around or I'll stab your eyes with my fingers and go all batshit crazy on you " I warned him.  Its always better to be safe than sorry!
