We end up just driving around instead of actually going somewhere specific and I'm kinda glad we do.

I start driving back so he can get his car and go home seeing as it's getting kinda late, we lost track of time.

We exchange phone numbers.

I drive home in 15 minutes and I know my mom will be pissed...maybe I should have thought this through? I'll be fine, she wanted me to get out anyways.

I walk through the front door holding all the bags and have no idea how I managed to do that. I place the bags on the kitchen counter and head to my room but get stopped when my mom called me back into the kitchen.

"Mia...where have you been?" she asks kind of worried.

I don't know what I'm supposed to say... so I come up with whatever.

"Uh.. I went to the store and made a friend so we drove around and talked a little..."

That is the truth, I guess.. in a way.

"Oh honey...that's great! Will I get to meet her?" Her eyes looked proud and hopeful but if only she knew.

"Oh yeah, sure maybe when she has time I guess..."

"That's wonderful...well I'll put these away and you go up to your room and do whatever."

I don't reply instead I nod my head and leave.

My mom will be so angry when she finds out it's a boy and I didn't tell her.

When I get to my room I realize I hadn't eaten dinner but I guess I'm not that hungry anyways.

I decided to watch a movie but struggle to decide which one and end up putting in the Ride Along.

I climb in bed and lay down wanting to be comfy. I feel my eyes drift slightly but awaken when I get a text.

Calum-

Just wanted to make sure this was the right number...? Calum

Me-

Yeah it is hah :)

Calum

Okay well that's good. I thought maybe you gave me a fake one just to spite me :)

Me-

Haha I'd never do that, to you at least.

And with that I turn the movie off and close my eyes to the peaceful sound of nothing that carrys on into the distance as I let sleep carry me away.
