Chelseas POV
I shut my bedroom door and fell on my bed with a sigh. When we got home Sam was here with food and we ate and talked but I decided to give them some privacy ill get thanked for later. I heard my labtop beep on my desk and felt my phone vibrate at the same time. I went to the labtop first since it was constantly beeping. I opened it and saw a skype request from Dad. I accepted and saw him in a matter of seconds with a smile on his face. "Hi Dad" "hey honey. I wanted to say I was sorry for what happened today" I frowned, remembering what he was referring to. "Its ok" I could tell he ment it. "If it helps Amber shouldn't be coming around till I get back." I sighed in relief. He laughed a bit at my reaction, he seemed happy about her not being here too. "Dad can I ask you something?" He nodded. "Why are you with her if your just as happy to get rid of her for a while as me?" He looked down"youll understand when you get older how hard it is to be alone" I guess he couldn't look at me when he responded. I already understood he was lonely with Mom gone but we're here. "Your not alone though, you have me and Oli" he sighed. "Thats not what I mean Chelsea" "I know what you mean Dad, im not a child who doesnt understand things that grown-ups do, but just know staying with her is gonna bite you in the ass when mom wakes up" he seemed shocked id say something like that to him, I never have but im just so fed up with his excuses. I ended the chat and slammed my labtop shut in anger. I know that was stupid and ill regret it but its like he doesnt relize that, its like he doesnt even remeber Moms existence. I calmed down and pulled out my phone reading the message I received before. It was from Tyler,my best friend.
Hey loser, mind if I crash at your place? Mom and Dad are being, well their being Mom and Dad.
Yea, its just me and Oli and maybe Sam anyways.
I replied. Tylers been my best friend since elementary. Hes 16 and about as tall as Oli with pitch black hair that was almost to his shoulders, he was tan and of course into bands as well. He always defended me when Amber would yell at me, of course only when he was there, or when someone at school was bothering me. He was one of the few people I trusted or even really friends with. This also isnt the first time he's spent the night cause of his parents. His parents faught a lot and he just didnt want to be around it. My dad didnt dislike him but of course, Amber did. He'd secretly stay in my room on the floor sometimes or on the couch if they werent here. I heard a knock at my bedroom door which shortly opened afterwards. Tyler stepped in and tossed his leather jacket on the bed the went along with it. "That was fast" I said as I reopened my labtop. "I was already here, just waiting for you to say yes" I shook my head. "Have I ever told you how comfy your bed is?" "Yea, but I always tell you your still sleeping on the floor, but today itd be the couch." He groaned. "Can I just sleep up here tonight. Your living room gets creepy at night." I laughed "aww, your to scared to sleep on the couch?" he glared at me sending me back to my labtop. "Fine you can sleep up here." I could tell he was smiling.

Tyler's POV
I watched as Chelsea typed away on her labtop. I wish it wasnt true but secretly, Im madly in love with this girl. I wish I weren't cause I know shes not, I guess I just keep hoping she'll grow feelings for me aswell. She stood up and turned to her bed. I quickly shut my eyes and pretended to be asleep. She shoved me a few times but I didnt budge. "Tyler get up" she whined. I grabbed her hand and pulled her down next to me on the bed and held her without thinking, She gasped and layed still. At first I was prepared to get slapped and be told to leave but thats not at all what she did. She chuckled and snuggled into my arms. I was shocked but also so happy she stayed. Ive never been so scared and happy at the same time. We layed like this the rest of the night and fell asleep.
