"Tell me about you." Mystery boy said, breaking the silence over breakfast.
Dad left this morning not sure to where...
Dustin and Chase went in a breakfast date so it was just us two.
"What do you wanna know?" I replied.
"Anything you'll tell me."
"What if I tell you nothing?"
"Fine I'll go first."
"Okay."
"I'm 18, love to travel and I found out yesterday that my ex is pregnant with my kid. Your turn."
"What?!"
"Hey, we had the same reaction."
"Does that mean your-"
"What? No she's engaged to someone else."
"Oh."
He smirked.
"I still hate you."
He rolled his eyes.
"Can you tell me something about you?"
"I hate the color pink, I like getting my nails done, I have a tattoo and I've never been kissed."
"Tattoo of what?"
"Doesn't matter."
"Dose daddy know?" He mocked.
"He took me to get it." I snapped.
"Wow."
I walked to my room and slammed the door.
He knocked on the door.
"So now you knock?"
He was silent
"Come in." I snapped.
He opened the door and sat at my desk.
"It's 'love'"
"What is?"
"My tattoo."
"Oh."

We walked around the mall.
Not really sure why we were here but we were.
I eyed him as we past Victoria's Secret.
He didn't even look over at the shop, he made a B-line for the candy store.
I giggled and followed.
"What's your favorite kind?" I asked as we looked around.
"Sour. you?"
"Anything."
"Even the gummy spiders?"
"Yes, even those." I laughed.
His blue eyes were wild with excitement.
We bought so much candy.
We got into his car to head home.
"Wanna go to my place?" He asked
"I-I don't know."
"My mom and sister are home. I promise I'm not going to make you do anything Callie."
"Okay." I felt myself smile.
"Can you tell me your name please?"
"Blake."
I smiled. I finally knew.
~~~
We got to his house and it was smaller then mine.
It was simple and the inside was so homey that you were instantly comfortable.
"You like it?"
"Yeah."
"Thank you." A women came out of the back hall.
"That's my mom."
"Hello darling." She hugged me.
"Its nice to meet you." I smiled
"Mom Callie Anne, Callie, my mom, Cammie." Blake introduced us.
"Well I have to finish some paper work so I'll be in the office." Cammie walked back down the hall.
"Anything you want to do?"
"What is there to do?"
"I think my sisters having her tea party?"
I followed him into a back bedroom.
"Belle?"
A little girl smiled at him.
"Can we join you?" He asked
She nodded.
"Belle this is Callie."
"Hi." She smiled at me.
Her smile was contagious, even if you were in tears you would smile.

"Why did I give her candy?" Blake stared at his hyper baby sister as she ran around the house.
I giggled.
"Chase!" Blake yelled into his phone.
Chase and Dustin showed up moments later.
Dustin laid down next to me.
"There girls... Have you never been around a girl?" Chase asked staring down at us.
The two boys started Wrestling around the living room.
"Blake James!" Cammie yelled standing in the entry way.
"Sorry mommy."
"You boys and Callie need to get home, before the drunks get on the road."
"Okay." Chase nodded.
"We'll take Callie so kisses each other goodbye." Dustin smirked as he lead his boyfriend outside.
"I'll save your candy for movie night." Blake winked.
"Okay." I smiled.
"Goodnight Cupcake."
"Night Blake."
I ran out to Chases car, and got in the back.
The ride was quite and peaceful silence.
Chase pulled into our driveway and I got out, and walked inside.
Dustin came in a few minutes later.
"There's someone I want you two to meet." Dad said.
We hesitantly went into the kitchen and the girl dad was nose to nose with yesterday was there smiling.
"This is Justeen." Dad smiled.
"Hey." Dustin greeted.
I stayed silent.
Dad kissed my head. "it's okay." He whispered in my ear.
I nodded.
I sighed and headed to my room exhausted.
I looked at my phone and called my mom.
I took a deep breathe.
"Hey mom, I miss you."
