i wake up to my phoning ringing, i look at it and guess who it is, Rachel, i wait a few seconds before answering.

"Hello, Rachel, it's literally 6:45 in the morning on a weekend!" i groan.

"Yeah, well, Ethan spammed me with calls and messages wondering where you were because you said you were meeting him at 6:15." she says in an annoyed voice.

"oh whoops, i forgot to mention i wasn't going anymore," i state while putting my slippers on.

"Well, please talk to him because he's worried about you!" she says less annoyed this time.

"No, why would i tell him i got home safe and i'm fine when he literally just played me!" i say angrily.

"Girl, please just at least message him saying your not going or something before i get one more message from him saying he's worried or some sh*t." she says as if she's about to fall asleep.

"Nope," i hang up

i wonder why ethan is so worried about me, it's not like he cared about me last night! Anyway i'm not going anymore so i don't have to talk to him all weekend!

"hey honey, aren't you meant to be with your friends already," my mom asks.

"Yeah, but i decided not to go, i have a lot of homework!" i lie as i grab the milk out the fridge to make some cereal.

"oh okay, i'm going to get ready for work," she says while getting up off the couch.

i finish eating and go upstairs, i shut my door and get dressed in a black crop top and some pink and white sweatpants. i walk into the bathroom and brush my teeth and hair and do my makeup. i then open the door and see my mom as she's leaving.

"bye sweetie!" she yells and shuts the door.

i grab Rachel's car keys and go to the local cafe.

i get there and order a iced coffee with a slice of chocolate cake. i take out my laptop and open my documents, i open a file called "the plan" and inside is some research and plans on what bryan and i are going to do.

i read over some of the documents bryan had posted last night. i finish and pay my coffee and cake and leave. i drop off the car at rachel's house and walk back to my place.

i open my phone and see
****
Chelsea's phone:

ethan: 27 missed calls and 32 messages.
****

omg! why is he trying to get hold of me! i don't want to talk to him!!

****
ethan: hey chelsea, where are u?
ethan: chelsea i'm worried about you
ethan: we have to leave!
ethan:i know i messed up last night! pls forgive me!
28 more messages...
****
wow! he actually cares?

*knock knock*
i open the door and see Ethan standing there holding a forever 21 bag.

"What are you doing here?" i ask angrily

"i'm here to apologize, i brought you a gift!" he says in a sad voice.

"i don't want any of your stupid gifts, Ethan you understand that you actually broke me!" i say as tears start to form in my eyes.

"i know, and i'm so sorry!" he says softly

"anyways why aren't you on the trip?" i ask curiously

"i didn't go because i wasn't sure if you were safe or not and i didn't want to risk going and you not being safe." he explains

"well i'm safe, you can leave!" i say annoyed

"please don't shut me out!" he says in an innocent tone.

"i want you to leave, now!" i say sternly

before he could say anything a car drives past and i shut the door when he looks at it. Why did he bring me a gift? was it because he actually likes me and made a mistake? or did he just want to play me again!

sunday night

+++++

i get dressed in a oversized t-shirt and some shorts with a polkadot pattern. i brush my teeth and put my hair in a messy bun.

i don't want to go to school tomorrow and see ethan, nessa and the others, they aren't going to be very happy with me!!
