"What do you mean? Did he do something bad? I called you so many times! You didn't even answer!"
"Mom, he smashed my phone..."
"Madison? For real? But he's a nice boy! He'd NEVER do that!"
"He did."
"What happened before he 'smashed your phone'"
"He--you know what."
"He k...kk.."
"Yes, Mom, he was acting weird. He locked me in the bathroom. He walked closer and closer, and did—well—you know what."
"Oh Maddy! It's ok! You're in high school!"
What do mean, "You're in high school?!" I mean, true—I am old enough already.
"Ok Mom. It's ok."
"Good..."
"Ba ding!"

Hey
What are you doing right now
Madison?
I'm about to eat dinner
Can I come over for one sec
My mom wants to visit with me
Sorry, my dad's home
My mom will text your mom
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Madison! Come down! I just got a text from Marco's mom!"
I ran downstairs. "Mom! No! Didn't I tell you what happened?!"
"It's ok!"
"Mom! He even smashed my phone! I can't let him come here!"
"It's ok! We're figure something out!"
What do you mean, it's ok! I had so many memories! I mean—yea—we can just repair the screen, but still! It costs money!
"Ding-dong!" The door rang.
"I bet it's Marco! Aren't you excited! This is the first time he's came to our house for 7 years!"
"OMG! Hey Dona! It's been so long!" My mom hugged Marco's mom.
"Hey Samantha! Where's your son?"
"He's right here!" Marco peered out and looked at me.
"Hey Maddy! How are you doing?"
"Umm--hey! Hi! I'm--ok."
"Great! Hey, can I see your brother?"
"Sure--he's in his bedroom..."
We went upstairs to my brother's bedroom. I opened the door.
"Hey Justin! Sup?"
"Hey! Who are you? Ha! Madison's boyfriend?"
"Yes," he said as he hugged me.
"No, we're just—friends."
"Oh Madison! Stop lying! You know you love him!" Justin said.
Stop it, Justin!!!!
"Hey, Marco! Do you want to play Mario Cart?"
"Yes, sure. Maddy, want to play?" He raised his eyebrows at me. Then he looked at me with this cute face.
"Yeah--sure!"
We played for a while. I was winning. Finally, the game was over.
"Yay! I came in 1st place!"
"Yay! I came in last. It's ok!" my brother said.
"Good job Maddy!" Marco said as he hugged me AGAIN.
"Marco, stop it."
Marco looked at me with puppy dog eyes. Finally, Justin broke the silence.
"Guys! Do you want to play again?"
"No, sorry. Madison. I need to talk to you. Do you mind, Justin? Sorry. Madison, just come here." He looked at me and gave me a nod. What are you doing again?
"Sure...." He grabbed my hand and pulled me out and slammed the door.
"What do you want from me?!" I whispered. I felt the whoosh of air from the living room.
"Let's go outside, by the bay. The sunset looks beautiful today. Don't you think so?" His eyes sparkled like the sunset. He was still holding my hand.
"Sure!" I was dying to go outside anyways. Still holding on to his hand, I ran downstairs. "Mom! We're going out to the bay!"
"Which bay though? Sunset? Gomorg? Frog?" she asked excitedly.
"Sunset." Marco said. Wow, Sunset Bay. I've never been there, but I heard that they have the best views of the sunset. I actually feel excited. But why though?
"Sunset Bay? OMG! I heard that place is SO beautiful! Can I come with you guys?" She was so excited that she looked like she was going to pass out. She smiled so big her mouth almost ripped.
"Sorry, no. We're also planning to eat dinner at the Royal Crabs." He looked at me and smiled the sweetest smile I've ever seen in my life.
"Aww. Sure! I'll let you guys go out together. Wait! Is this your first date?"
"Nah. I've dated many girls before. They weren't as sweet as your daughter though. She's so beautiful and nice!"
"Thanks Marco. You're--um—pretty sweet too??"
I hate you Marco. Or maybe I like you a LITTLE bit?? Madison Tamoth Lambarth, why do you like this psychopath!
"Okay! We're going now! See you later!" He held my hand and walked through the door. The sun was setting, and the sky was a pinkish color. "Wow, what a beautiful scenery! So romantic!" He looked at me sweetly. I blushed.
"Yes--it's so beautiful."
"Isn't it as beautiful as me?"
"Uhhhh--sure??" He winked and smiled at me. OMG! I haven't seen him smile for so long! He looks cute when he smiles and winks. Awwww! Okay, what am I doing? I gawked at him awkwardly.
"Madison?"
I shook my head. "Yeah?"
"Never mind." We continued walking and holding hands. A few minutes later, we reached Sunset Bay. We stood on the bridge, gazing at the sunset. It was so beautiful! Marco's eyes gleamed as he looked at the scene. He smiled the cutest smile.
"How is it?" he asked.
"It's so—so beautiful." He squeezed my hand. Why am I enjoying this? Am I enjoying the scenery? Am I enjoying being with him? Or both? Oh no. I think it's both.
"Marco, I need to tell you something."
He looked at me and smiled. "What?"
"I like you."
"For real?"
"Yeah."
