I'm going to write the chapters' character POV's depending on my mood, or what's happening in the story. :)

"Would you go to the movies with me on Friday night?" I heard him say when I was a few feet away from the door. I stopped and turned.

I looked those brilliant blue eyes. Bryce was asking me out! He was asking me out. I controlled myself from trusting him too quickly. I searched his face, and his eyes and saw that he was serious and that he really is sincere.

"Really?" I challenged

"Yeah." He said

He did say he was sorry and he planted me a tree. I can't say no to him. I just can't. I felt like I should give him a chance to prove himself.

"Of course" I said and his face lightened up instantly. I was pleased too. "I'll come by at seven PM." he said

"But, I have to tell my parents first."

"Yeah, no problem." He said, but something came across his eyes that I couldn't identify.

" We better get moving, I'll see at school , Juli."

"Bye." He turned to his house and walked away

I turned and took a few steps to my door. I sighed and turned the knob and it was open. My mom was squeezing some salad dressing in salad bowl, her back facing me. "Hi, dear." She said in her cheery voice. "Where have you been?" I walked in the kitchen and sat on the counter.

"I was having a-- conversation with Bryce."

"What did he say?" She said, clearly interested.

"He said he was sorry for everything and he-" I stopped.

"And he said--what, Juli?" She stopped mixing the salad and was now turned towards me.

"He asked me if I would go to the movies with him this Friday night." I said quickly without looking at her. When I looked at her she was smiling and then she came at me and hugged me. Then when she pulled away she said "Oh, I have to get you something nice to wear!" she clapped her hands together.

"No, Mom" I argued, but it was like talking to air. She finished up her vegetable salad and dumped it in a presentable glass bowl.

"This is so exciting! I have to tell your father." She walked away in a happy stance. Then I heard her say "`

At least I won't have to go through this 'conversation' with dad. I jumped off the counter and headed down the hallway to my room. I wanna have a shower. I grabbed some night clothes and headed to the bathroom. I turned the knob that says 'H' and water spurted out the shower head. I kicked my shoes off and peeled my clothes away then I got in quickly. I sucked in air loudly. It was hot. Then a couple seconds later, I felt myself relaxing, muscles loosening. Ahhh.

(next morning)

Beep! Beep! Beep! My alarm clock ringing over and over. My eyes opened and squinted a little at the light coming from the window. The beeping was still going so I slapped the thing off. It showed 6:30 am in bright red light. I guess I'm going to school today. It was Wednesday and it was a perfect sunny day.

I got ready and went to the kitchen for some breakfast. Mom was getting something out the fridge. "Good morning, mom" I greeted. She pushed the fridge close. "Goodmorning, sweetie. do yount some omelets?" I grabbed the cereal and the milk. "No, thanks. I have some cereal today" As i ate my breakfast, I looked around, no brothers around at this time. After breakfast, i continued my daily routine, and the next thing to do was feed the chickens. I went outside and did just that, I even sang "My Girl" while I was at it. When I finished, I petted my wonderful chickens goodbye and grabbed my backpack I layed on the ground by the sofa. My brothers, Matt and Mike where finally up, and eating. Dad was eating mom's omelets too.

"Mom, dad, I'm riding the bus today. I Gotta go!" My dad gave me a look. He probably knew about Bryce asking me out and mom probably exaggerated it. i kissed my parents goodbye and they both said something similar like "Take care. love you" and my brothers couldn't care less.

I glanced at the time. just enough time. And as I was walking, carefree, smelling the fresh morning air, I heard fast steps coming up behind me. Someone half-running, and then "Hey." I heard someone say. It was just who i thought it was, Bryce. I was actually glad to see him. I slowed down, when he finally was at arm's length, my heart gave a little lurch when he touched my shoulder. But, it was obviously just a friendly gesture.

"You're riding the bus today?" He asked. I assume he's wondering about how I feel about the non-existent sycamore tree by the bus stop.

"Yeah." I said simply. The bus came into view and we walked towards it in silence, I looked at the barren soil where 'my' tree used be. Bryce noticed I was looking a the barren spot and I know that because I felt his hand on my back and he said "Are you okay?"I nodded then I looked up at him. He looked so concerned, so handsome, so . . .

Beep!

I blinked, Bryce removed his hand from my back. The bus was waiting for us, the other kids must have be in there already. We got in the bus, and alot of the kids were looking at us in this wierd way. I found an empty seat at the back, I walked towards it quickly and sat. I thought Bryce was going to sit next to me, but the idea shattered when I heard a snobby girl-voice asked him to sit next to her.

"Bryce, I saved a seat for you." she said.
