I Think I Like You

Day's POV-

 I lay in my bed trying to ignore my twin brother's stupid party meeting. Sometimes they can be so immature. But then I hear Mom call for dinner so I turn off my walkman and run downstairs. " I made pasta salad tonight" Mom says. " It taste great mom" Nancy says, no doubt trying to butter her up into doing something for her. " Thank you, Nance" Mom says. " Did the boys leave early, Micheal?" Mom asks. " Uh, yea. They left through the basement door." Mike says. " Nerds" I whisper to them. " Delilah!" Mom scolds me. " What? It's true! There fucking nerds!" I say. " Language!" Dad yells at me. " I don't give a fuck! You cuss all the time, want me to start scolding you? You get to break your own rules, but when it comes to me... oh no!" I say sarcastically. " Delilah go to your room. You won't finish dinner tonight." Mom says. " Fine. our food sucks ass anyways" I say and go to my room. I slam my door shut and sit on my bed. Screw them. They don't love me anyways.They only want a boy and a girl. I was a mistake and so was Holly, but at least they want Holly. I hear arguing in the basement so I go down and listen by the door. " We need to go now! Before it gets dark." Mike says. " Fine! But if the chief finds us searching for Will, I'm saying you two knocked me out and dragged me" Dustin says. I storm in. " YOU bitches are trying to find Will, aren't you?" I ask them. Mike rolls his eyes. " Cant wait till I tell Mom your eavesdropping on us again, Day" Mike says. " I can't wait to tell Mom your going against the police forces rules!" I shoot right back. Mike realizes mine is better and sighs. " What do you want Day?" he asks. " its simple. I want to come with you."

" why would you want to come with us?" Lucas asks. Poor boy. He has had a crush on me since I gave him an extra piece of halloween candy in 3rd grade. " Why not? I love a good adventure." I say. Mike scowls. " Fine you can come with us but that means you can't tell Mom or Dad OR Nancy we left" Mike says. I roll my eyes and nod. " Let's go, nerds" I say and get on my bike waiting for them.

We bike off and head towards Mirkwood. We park our bikes and head through the woods. It starts raining and we try to cover ourself with our hands " Will!! Will!" we all call. I hear a rustle in a bush about two yards away. I stray off the trail an go look. "Will?" I ask the bush. Wow, I'm asking a bush. Then I see hair thought the leaves. And then a face. And then big brown chocolate eyes. I pull the small child out of the bushes. It's a girl. So why does my stomach feel so tingly inside. She looks at me and says one word. "Pretty".
