The Boy Next Door

thirty four

OWENS POV
Today was Sunday. Amelia and I were going on our first date since we got back together. There was a cute restaurant downtown next to the ice cream place we went to a few months ago. I got dressed and I walked over to Amelia's. I knocked on the door and Derek opened the door.
"Hey," Derek said, "she's upstairs."
"Thanks," I said. I walked upstairs and knocked on Amelia's door.
"Derek I'll be out in a minute!" Amelia said.
"It's me," I chuckled.
"Oh hey come in," she said. I opened the door and she was sitting at her desk putting makeup on.
"Hi," She said and smiled.
"Hi," I said, she was so pretty. She closed her makeup pallet and smiled at me.
"Ready?" I said.
"Yeah," she said, "you're so handsome."
"You're so pretty," I said and pecked her lips. She giggled and smiled.
"I love you," I said.
"I love you too," she said. She grabbed her phone and then my hand.
"Derek?" Amelia said.
"Yeah?" Derek responded from the kitchen.
"Tell mom I'll be back before dinner," Amelia said.
"Okay," Derek said. She grabbed my hand and we started walking down the sidewalk to the downtown area. She was so incredibly pretty.
"Amelia," I said.
"Yeah?" She said cutely.
"You're gorgeous," I said.
"I love you," she smiled.
"I love you too," I said.

We were sitting at lunch and she was so cute.
"Did I tell you about my doctors appointment?" She said.
"No, how'd it go?" I asked.
"It went good," she said, "they said I'm healthy."
"That's awesome," I said.
"Yeah," she said, "I have to keep going back it's kinda annoying."
"Well that's okay, it can't be too bad right?" I said.
"They literally just weigh me," she chuckled.
"Well I'm very glad you are healthy," I said.
"Me too," she said, "so what's been up with you."
"School," I chuckled.
"Fun," she said.
"Oh definitely," I chuckled.
"I hate school," she said.
"Okay but you're smart," I said.
"So are you," she said.
"Hey I'm not," I chuckled.
"At least Ryan isn't in any of your classes," she laughed.
"Is he bothering you?" I asked.
"No, he's okay for now," she shrugged.
AMELIAS POV
Owen and I were walking home and the date could not have gone any more perfect. I love him so much and it was nice. He had his arm around me as we walked towards my house. We got to my porch and I smiled at him and he smiled back.
"Thank you for a good second first date," I smiled.
"It was a good second first," he chuckled.
"You're cute," I said.
"That's all you," he said.
"I love you," I smiled.
"I love you too," he said. He leaned in and kissed me. I pulled him closer to me and he wrapped his arms around my waist. We started making out slightly and then we broke the kiss.
"I'll see you tomorrow?" I asked.
"Of course," he said.
"Okay," I giggled. I walked inside and my mom was sitting in the living room, which meant she totally saw Owen and I making out.
"Hey," she said.
"Hey," I said.
"How was the date?" She asked.
"It was good," I said.
"Looked like it ended well," she joked.
"Yeah," I chuckled, kinda embarrassed.
"Come here," she said.
"Why," I complained and sat down next to her.
"Let yourself be happy again, you deserve it after everything you've been through, you have a good thing with Owen going, let yourself have it," she said and hugged me.
"I will," I said.

It was late at night and I was thinking of Owen. Before I broke up with him we slept in the same bed together and I loved it, I really did. It was late enough that my mom was asleep and Derek and Liz were in their rooms. I took out my phone and texted "window" to Owen. I walked over to the window and opened it and there he was.
"Yes?" He chuckled.
"You wanna be snuck in?" I chuckled.
"Do I ever," he chuckled, "I'll be right over." I smiled and closed the window and I smiled. I ran downstairs and opened the back door. He walked over and he was so cute in his pajamas.
"Not a word," I chuckled. He nodded and we walked upstairs. I closed my bedroom door behind me and locked it. He kissed my forehead and I smiled.
"You know we're pretty good at this sneaking in thing," he chuckled.
"Yeah," I smiled, "we are."
"Okay goodnight," he joked and laid down on my bed.
"Move over that's my side," I chuckled and he rolled over. He wrapped his arms around my waist and kissed my cheek.
"If I set my alarm for 5:50 does that give you enough time to come up with a creative way to leave?" I chuckled.
"Sure," he said.
"Okay," I said. I got up and opened my closet and grabbed a box in the back.
"What's that?" He asked.
"Your clothes," I chuckled, when I destroyed my room I couldn't bear to see his clothes, and I sure as hell didn't want to talk to him to give it back, so I put it in a box. I wore his comfy sweatshirt and climbed back into bed.
"I forgot you had that," he chuckled.
"You can have it back," I said.
"No I think you look rather adorable in it," he said and kissed me. I smiled and nuzzled into his chest. We had our first date today. It went amazing. I was so glad I didn't ruin everything with Owen, and that he still loved me.
