WOW!
Milla peeked into the envelope a page of lined paper was neatly folded in the envelope. Well not very fancy is it? Milla thought as she unfolded the letter and read it in her mind. When Milla was finished she remembered that after school she needed to go to Max's house I wonder what his house looks like she thought.
When Milla got to school she fast walked to her locker so nobody especially Max couldn't see her, When Milla turned around Max had his back in front of her because her locker was right across from his. Suddenly a dude wearing a hockey mask rode his skateboard down the hallway, towards Max. Max looked up and said "Whoa dude what's up." Suddenly the unknown dude took off his hockey mask and high fived Max it was MAX'S DAD! Wow he looked so young and he was carrying a black suitcase. "Hi dad, how are you?" "Great!" then Max's dad whispered into Max's ear "Have you found a good girl yet?" Asked Max's dad. "Sort of, "yeah." Max answered. "Oh" Max's Dad sounded very surprised now. Max surprised, changed the subject "Um dad, people are watching." Max said hoping his dad would move on and let him have a break for the day. "So, who's the girl?" Max's dad asked him. Should I tell him? Max asked himself. Then an unknown girl came up next to Max and said "I am Maxweena's girlfriend."
She said. "No you're not!" Max shouted noticing that she was listening. "Then who is it then?" The girl asked in wonder.
"I'm not telling you." Max said. "He doesn't like anyone but me!" The Girl said. "No!" Max said "It's not YOU!" "OH" everyone said now knowing he did have a crush on someone, who was it?
No one knew who it was. The whole week all the girls had gone crazy wondering if Max liked her or her or her. The words spread and Mellissa heard it (Mellissa had a crush on Max) her head spun around in circles, What if he liked me? She thought. Milla didn't hear the BIG news; she was on a 14 day family vacation to L.A. When she got to school on Monday there were a lot of chattering, Max this and Max that. Milla didn't mind, she just walked casually like always. By the time she got to her classroom, lots and lots of people were throwing paper airplanes around the classroom she wondered why. All day she wondered why? Why? Why? Was it about her? Did someone stick a sticky note on her back that said "kick me or kiss me?" she worried so much her dad had to tap her to finish her homework. "What happened sugar?" Her dad asked her. He could tell she wasn't having a good time even though .writing was her favorite subject.
These were Her 8th Grade questions:
Milla Lavender Anderson
8th Grade Writing
Mrs. Green
What Dog Has 6 Legs?
She was stuck on that one even though she learned it today and she knew for a fact it was impossible. But she was to busy worrying, did they know she had a crush on Max? Her dad waited patiently for her to answer so he asked her again. This time she heard, but didn't say a word, she waited for him to leave but he didn't in fact he took out a book and said "Reading a book can help you think." That was it Milla took her homework and a blank piece of paper and went upstairs to do her work. Meanwhile Max was annoyed he took out his laptop and went on YouTube and searched up Animal by Neon Trees. He wished it was true, he sang along:
Here we go again
I kinda wanna be more than friends
So take it easy on me
I'm afraid you're never satisfied
Here we go again
We stick like animals
We play pretend
You're just a cannibal
And I'm afraid I won't get out alive
No I won't sleep tonight
Oh, Oh I want some more!
Oh, Oh what are you waiting for? What are you waiting for?
Take a bite of my heart tonight
Screech
Max's Dad came bursting in his room "Hi son What cha working on?" Max quickly shoved the paper he was reading, in his backpack. "What was that paper?" Asked Max's dad. Max didn't say anything. Max's dad plunged for it, he grabbed the paper and read it, and this is what it said:
Dear Max, 7/6/12 8:25PM
Hi! I can still come over to your house if that's O.K with u.
Is your dog a boy or girl? I heard a lot of rumor lately I'm afraid it Might be about me, do u know about that? If u does tell me I'll write my phone number at the bottom so u can call me any time. I'm very bored right now, but also very excited I wish u were here to hang out with me, my friend Mellissa has a golden retriever puppy it's name is Sammy, I want a pet I asked my dad, but he said I'm not responsible for my things. Is your dad like that? It would be nice to have a dad that would be kind enough to let me have a dog, what type of dog do u have? A poodle? A Retriever? An Akita? My favorite type of dog is a beagle their so cute and small. I would have written u a letter sooner but I had no time, I just got back from a trip to L.A. My friend E-mailed me a letter when I was there and that's when I thought maybe we could E-mail each other instead of wasting money and paper. My mom said she loved the idea of us getting to know each other, and we should talk more often, she also said she would like to speak with your parents and u. I'm very nervous about that idea I hope your not mad with me, I'm sorry. L -Milla Lavender Anderson

Write Me Back!
Wow Max thought as his dad stopped reading out loud. Did Milla actually write me that much! Anyways I need to tell her I'm not mad at her, I hope she understands. Max's dad was really surprised after he read that astonishing letter, Written with great care, Written by a girl named Milla. (That is an odd name.) He thought. A though Max thinks that name matches his. When Max first saw Milla he thought of LOVE, When Max sees his dad he thinks of punishment, and Mom, When Max First Met Nick and Roger he thought of watching Horror Movies and Video Games. Very odd thoughts. Meanwhile Milla watches T.V and the doorbell rings, Milla ran to the door and opens it. It was her Mom she was holding an Umbrella and a basket covered with Blue Cloth. Milla reached for the basket but her Mom gave her, Her Umbrella instead. Milla was sad she didn't get to hold the Basket. Her Mom could tell by the look on her face that she wanted to hold the basket, but she went along. At dinner she told everybody to stay in the Living room, because she had something important to show us. Milla could tell by the look of her mom, it had something to do with the basket.
