Being in Love With You

#9

Evan's P.O.V.

It's been a few hours since I spent overnight with Mila and the whole day as well. She really helped me through a tough time in my life. I was noticing more amazing qualities about her. She cares about others and always puts them first.

I drove in front of my house. It looked like such a nice home but when you go inside and witness the events that occur, you would think you entered the wrong house. I sighed as I got out and grabbed my stuff before closing the door and shutting off the car. I walked up to the door and walked inside.

It was quiet and quite frankly I didn't seem to mind. Although, it had me a little worried. I searched the whole house and it seemed like the presence of my mom had never existed.

Suddenly, my dad came out with a loaded gun and started yelling, "FREEZE, SKUNK BAG!!!" I admit I did yelp but it's only because I didn't see that coming. I put my hands in the air and froze like I've never froze before.

My dad suddenly realized who it was and put the gun down and unloaded it. "Son, what the hell are you doing here?" He asked now looking at me.

"Oh, I don't know, coming into my own house." I said back. I sighed with relief as I went to the kitchen to get myself a drink. It would've been alcohol because well you know, but I decided to one not do that anymore and two, my dad was there.

"I know that. I meant what are you doing here? Your mother is at her own place now." He told me. I turned around and totally forgot for a moment that when I came home I would not find my mom or Mel there. Just my dad. I walked out of the kitchen and grabbed my stuff.

"Right, well, hopefully I see you but if I don't, take care." I said as I left and went to my car. He looked kind of shocked to say the least but I guess he thought I came home because I wanted to live with him. Like my mother would ever let that happen. I drove to my new place which happens to be five minutes from Mila's. I finally reach my home. My new home. I do the usual and walked inside the house.

"Where have you been? I have been waiting for you to come home for an hour now." My mother said.

I looked at the time and it's already ten o'clock. Shit.

"I'm sorry. I was coming home and I accidentally went to the other house thinking we still lived there. It took me awhile to get back here but I did. I am sorry, mom." I told her.

She then sighed as she realized that was a good excuse.

"Sorry, I got upset with you. It's just, it's you, me and Mel now. We gotta take care of each other." She said.

"I know mom. I know." I then went upstairs and looked for my room. It happened to be the one that had all the boxes set in there.

I took a shower in my bathroom and put on a sweatpants before heading to bed. I put my phone on charge before I texted Mila.

Seconds later she texted me back. I smiled as I found the message really sweet. I knew she would be asleep after she sent that so I decided to do the same as well.

The next morning I woke up. I decided to do my normal routine even though I didn't have a clue what was the school situation going to be like. Oh, did I mention the house. The house that we're in now is one of the houses that mom loved when I was little. She always said she wanted to live there forever. It's still big like the last one except it's not like glass windows-like. It's more bricks on some parts and white paint on the other parts.

This house also has a bedroom for each of us and if you want to have guest over you can have approximately three over for them to have their own room.

After I had finished getting ready, I walked downstairs. "Good Morning, honey." My mom said as I entered the kitchen.
