Confusion
I woke up from a loud "NO!!!". It sounded like a girl, and it sounded close. It was probably Vanessa. I looked at the clock... Midnight. I looked outside... Darkness. I went outside. I turned to one side... Nothing. I turned to the other side... Nothing, except for a door-shutting noise. I felt a pat on my shoulder. I jumped. I got scared. What if it was a deadly, and hungry monster?! Or a guy with a chainsaw about to kill me?! I slowly turned around... Samuel.
"What are you doing?" I asked. I then added "You scared me!!" Because he really did.
"Oh... J-just... um... N-nothing.." He said. I could tell he was trying to hide something.
"Sure?" I said just to make sure that Vanessa didn't scratch him with her toenails or something.
"... N-n... Ugh! No. I'm not. I don't know what's going on right now.."
"I know, seems awkward having sex on the second day you meet someone."
"Wait... How-how do you know?"
"I live right next door. I could see your shadow. Do you think I'm that dumb to think that Vanessa kisses? She never kisses. It ALWAYS leads to more. I've experienced seeing her many times before."
"Ok. I-I'll go sleep now."
"In YOUR house?"
"Yes. In MY house." We giggled, and then went to our houses, and went in. GOD HE'S JUST SO HOT!!!
Just when I closed the door behind me, mom woke up. I heard her feet stamp down the stairs.
"Who's here?! If you're a robber, then just 1 word should help you find the way to money! LEAVE!!! I don't have any money!" She said while slowly dropping all her weight on each stair she stepped on. WAIT... NO MONEY????
"MOM! IT'S NOEL!! NOW TELL ME WHAT YOU MEANT WITH "I don't have any money"?????!!!!???!?!?!" I was seriously yelling at my mom. Was all my life a lie? Was all that time I was told my father died before I was born a lie?! Was all that time I was told I have no siblings a weird LIE?????! DID I REALLY CRY FOR SIBLINGS WHEN I MIGHT HAVE SOME?????!!!!! Ok. Calm DOWN!!!!! I took a deep breath. Maybe she only lied about having no money. Or she thought I was a robber, so she lied to the robber.
"Ok, Noel. Calm." I just did that... "Let's have a little talk. I'm sorry. I lied." To who???? The robber or me???? So I asked that:
"To who did you lie? The robber or me?"
"First lets sit at the kitchen table and talk." So we went over to the kitchen table to talk.
"So. I'm sure we both lied." She said. And we did, if she lied, because I never told her I get bullied.
"Okay..." I answered.
"Okay. You start." Wait. With what?
"With what?"
"Saying the truth. Tell me something that you actually lied about. Just... The truth."
"So. I get bullied... Since preschool."
"And-and you never told me? Honestly?!" She carried on. "Oh well, everyone makes mistakes, right? So did I. As you can tell... I-I lost my job. But that's not all... You know, I always told you that dad was dead-" I couldn't hear the rest. I knew what she meant. Dad is alive.

THE NEXT DAY
-=+=-=+=-=+=-
I couldn't believe what happened the day before. All I knew about my life was a lie. I needed a friend to talk to. The only one there could possibly be Samuel?
Knock knock! My hands banged against the wood. The wood of Samuel's door. For a while I thought there was nobody there... Until the door opened in lightning speed.
"WOW! Chill!" I said. I then added: "What is going on in here?"
"Nothing just... I don't know, just felt like opening the door that way." Samuel answered, and it sounded like the truth. "Why are you here?"
"I need someone to talk to."
Samuel let me in, got snacks, and sat on the couch with me.
"What do you want to talk about? I'm ready for laughter, tears, anything." He said with a bunch of curiosity in his voice.
"My mom..."
"So tears come, or no..?" Ok. That made me giggle at the worst moment. He is just so cute! OMG WHAT??!?!?!!!
"Maybe. I don't know. But she lied to me. Not just a little lie. A lie that changed my feelings. And not just one lie... Two... Two lies that should never be lies."
"Ok... What lies..?" There was that curiosity again.
"She always told me that my dad died before I was born. It-it-IT TURNS OUT THAT MY DAD WAS ALWAYS ALIVE!!!!! BUT NO!!!THAT LIE IS NOT ENOUGH, RIGHT?!?! MY MOM LOST HER JOB TOO!!!! PERFECT!! MY LIFE IS JUST PERFECT!!!" My voice cracked. Water droplets slowly came bursting out my eyes, and made their way down my cheeks. My face hurt, and was probably as red as a tomato, but I didn't ask if they were. I felt Samuel's hand touch my back. He then put them on my cheeks and turned my face towards him.
"I love you." He whispered, and not even a second later he kissed me... I mean WE kissed... I mean I love him.
The kiss felt like the one with Nick, but only 1,000 times better. AND it felt right... Very right. I'm in love.
