I sat here at home alone again. I mean I was used to it. Since my parents were divorced I hardly got to see my dad. Every other Friday my mom went out with some friends, they usually stayed around La Jolla which is where we lived but this weekend she went to Las Vegas to LAX. Well that's where she was tonight anyways. My dad lived in Beverly Hills with his new wife, Corrine. She was pretty cool can complain. She's like an older sister and I actually feel like I can tell her more than my actual mom. I'm turning 16 in 3 months and I'm in grade 11 at La Jolla high.
Now my mom's never been remarried. I mean she's had boyfriends in the past but nothing serious.
So here I am alone once again. It's not like I don't have friends it's just that tonight's one of those "stay-in-and-watch-movies" kind of nights. I never expected my mom to have a boyfriend longer than a month. Don't know why, I think she has commitment issues. Until that Sunday night that she came home...
"Hey mom" I walked into the kitchen
"Mhm" she smiling I knew she had met a guy
"So who's the guy?" I honestly didn't care about her dating, you know because they never stayed around for more than a month
Well...um, you know that magician Criss Angel?" my face dropped, of course I knew who he was I wasn't a fan
"Yaahhh..." I looked evil
"Well him, we just clicked right away so I invited him here next weekend and I'd like for you to be here" she walked towards the stairs
I sat there. What she said didn't hit me. "Whoa! Wait a second you just met him this weekend and your already bringing home?" I was shocked "What the hell!?" I chased after her
"MOM!" I was furious like I said I didn't mind her dating but bringing a guy home when they only knew each other for a weekend? No way.
"What? You'd probably like him" she sat on the stairs debating with me
"Yah that's what you said about Richard, and wasn't he just a winner?" I gave her a sarcastic tone
"You don't even have to be here, just be here long enough to say hi" she pleaded with me
"Fine, but I'm going to Rachel's party Friday night so..."
"So be careful how much you drink and lay off the weed" she now stood up and walked up the stairs
"Nobody said there would be drinking" I fought back even though I knew there would be
"Come on Ava I know there will be drinking, and I also know that there won't be supervision" she smiled at me
"Okay so drinking yes but there will be supervision" I walked up the stairs
"Mhm, and who would that be?" she gave me one of her "looks"
"Rachel's sister" I walked past her
"And she's how old?" she pulled me back
"19, but her boyfriends 22 and he'll be there too" I pulled away walking towards my room '
"Fine whatever have fun" she ran back downstairs as the phone rang
I ran to grab the phone in my room. I looked at the caller ID.
"Luxor Hotel" I mumbled under my breath. No way was he calling her already. Desperate? I think so.
I decided to pick it up.
"Hello" I sounded like I has attitude, but what most people don't know is that I have this natural attitude.
"Hi, is Trisha there?" the voice sounded all too familiar. I've seen his show before and I knew that voice.
I could be mean and say you have the wrong number. But my mom's pretty chill so I'm letting it play out.
"Yah, hold on" I ran to the stairs and yelled for my mom to pick it up.
As soon as I heard that she picked up I hung up and walked over to my computer.
I had homework to do. See that's the thing I admit that I do drink and that I do weed but it doesn't affect my school life. I'm captain of the cheerleading team and I'm getting good marks in all of my classes.
After finishing my homework I went to bed.
