9:00am
Bed
I don't want to get out of bed today. I woke up with my face stuck to the pillow thanks to my tears. I don't even know why I was crying. I've know Dave for what? Two days? And I cry over him? I am ridiculous.
A few seconds later
No, he is ridiculous for leaning in and then buggering off.
9:30am
Eating cheerios whilst watching kids cartoons. I can't find the remote.
A few seconds later.
Kyle keeps staring at me over the top of his magazine.
"What?"
"Have you been crying?"
Crap. How can he tell? "No, why?"
"Your eyes are all puffy and sad like."
"Uh...I got in late."
"Half eleven isn't exactly late, Anna."
"How'd you know when I got in?"
"I heard you."
"Oh." Poo. "Plus I forgot to take my make-up off, which doesn't help."
"Mmmhmm." He did that raise one eyebrow thingie. "Anna, I heard you crying."
Damnit. "Oh, is that the time. I should probably start getting ready to meet the Ace's."
A few seconds later
Left my breakfast bowl on the coffee table.
"Anna, what were you crying about?"
Jesus, my brother is loud.
"Crying? What for?" Of for crap sake. My dad was at the top of the stairs and heard him.
"Nothing, he's imagining things."
10:00am
Bedroom
Praise the higher powers for the new lock on my door. I showered, dressed and did my hair and make-up in peace for a change.
I wore a pair of jeans with a red vest, black and white striped cardie and a leather jacket with my black studded boots. I tied my hair into two plaits and pulled a red slouched beanie over the top. I kept my make up simple with just a bit of eyeliner and passion fruit lip balm. (I think I've eaten more of that lip balm than I've worn.)

10:30am
"Anna!" Is anything going to go right today? I was literally a step from the front door!
"Dad, I'm running late, I'll talk to you later! Bye!" Ran out the door and down the road. No doubt I will be moaned at later but I shall suffer the consequences then.
A few seconds later
Or hide in my room and lock the door. That could work too.
Crap, crap, crap!
Dave is walking down my street! Towards me!
OK, he hasn't seen me, he's looking at his feet and has his headphones in.
A few more seconds later
Crossed the road super fast and am now running fast and then ducking behind each car.
Wait...what's he doing?
He's looking up at my house. What on earth is he doing? He rang the doorbell. Oh poo, Kyle answered.
A few more seconds later
On all fours behind a red ford. Kyle said something and Dave turned to look up the street. Maybe if I make a run for it, Kyle will get the hint and say nothing. OK. Here I go.
Remind me to kill my brother, OK?
I ran out from behind the ford and he shouted me! Is it not obvious that I was hiding? I continued running and then Dave shouted me.
Still running...Round the corner...Risked a look behind me and now I feel pants. Dave was stood on the corner just staring at me.
Well, it is his fault...I think...Ugh, I need to talk to the Ace's.
12:30pm
Some random cafe
"Soooo..." Grinned Jools as I sat down beside her. "What happened last night."
"What?" Ellen said with a frown. Absolutely no dithering. Wow.
"Dave walked Anna home last night." Informed Rosie. "Come on, spill."
"OK. I need advice." I said. "I don't know who was in the wrong, me or him."
"Anna, what happened?" Asked Jas.
"Well, we were outside my house and he leaned forword so I did the same but he turned his face and made it lip to cheek." There were gasps all around. "Then he just said, 'see you later' and walked off."
"What the hell." Said Mabs.
"And then as I left the house this morning he was coming down the road."
"Non!"
"Oui! So I crossed over and hid behind a ford and he went to my house so I tried to run off but my brother saw me and shouted so Dave saw me and when I looked back he was stood on the corner staring at me looking all sad and confused and stuff and now I feel crap."
And once again, the viking bride has produced her beard from out of thin air and is stroking it in a wise way. "So he gave an invitation for a kiss, avoided it, ran off and then returned the following morning." She 'hmm'd' a little. "So he felt guilty this morning, obviously. Which he should. It's not nice to toy with a girlies emotions." She 'hmm'd' again. "Aha!" She said this so loudly that Ellen jumped and knocked her coffee over.
"What?" I asked pushing some paper towels over to El.
"Dave liked Georgia, yes?"
"Yes."
"Then he got over it, yes?"
"Yes."
"Then she left and he was the unlaugh, yes?"
"Yes, Rosie, what's your point?"
"You are quite like Gee humour wise and maybe he liked that and that's why he was going to kiss you but then stopped because you're not Gee at all."
"Oh wow, Ro. Now I feel great." I slumped down in my chair.
"It doesn't mean he doesn't like you. It just means he's still thinking about Gee." Said Jas.
"So..."
"So, you should probably talk to him about this."
I knew someone would say that. "Or, I could hide and avoid the whole situation."
"You walk to and from school with him, hang out with his best friends girl friends and he knows where you live. How exactly are you going to avoid him?" Damn Jools and her smart brain.
"Shush. I'll figure something out."
"Talk to him." Said Jas.
"I will...If my plan doesn't work."
2:00pm
Fancy dress shop with the Ace's.
Rosie has decided to dress as a viking for Halloween. Obviously. Jools is going as Vampira since Rollo was going as Dracula. Ellen is going as Tinkerbell and is hoping that she can persuade Dec to be Peter Pan. I'm not sure he'll like the tights to be honest. Jas is being a hippy with Tom and Mabs and Ed are going as Zombies. Me? I am going as an Indian because I am that cool.
At the moment, I am browsing through many head dresses.
2:10pm
Settled on a large one with black, white and red feathers. Now I just need the rest of the outfit.
4:00pm
Walking down my road with 2 bags full of my outfit. My headdress is in it's own special box that is a pain in arse to carry.
"Need a hand?"
What? Turned around to see Dave. Great. Now I can't run away. That'd be rude. But I ran away this morning.
"Uhh...I'm alright actually." Continued walking.
"Anna, can we talk?" Why is he following me,
"About?"
"Last night."
"Nothing to talk about. Laters." Left Dave on the doorstep. And yes, it was sehr awkward trying to close the door with dignity when the box your holding jams it open.
A few minutes later.
"Anna?" Oh go away, Kyle. I am lying face down on my bed for a reason. "Anna, why is that lad stood on our front?"
"He's our new gnome. I bought him in town." I mumbled into my pillow.
"Anna.." Crap. I forgot to lock my door and now Kyle has come in. "Why won't you talk to him?"
Rolled onto my stomach. "How much did he tell you this morning?"
"All he said was that he did something very wrong last night and wanted to apologize."
"Well he can't cause I'm not talking to him."
"Why? What happened?"
"Kyle. As my older brother you should not be asking me that."
"Anna, as my little sister, I am concerned."
"You sound like dad."
"Come on." He held his hand out to me. "I'll make you scrambled eggs and you can tell me what's wrong."
"Scrambled eggs? That's my favorite."
"I know. I'm the best big brother in the world."
4:30pm
Sat on the sofa with my scrambled eggs on toast.
"Well?"
"Honestly Kyle, I don't think you'll want to know."
"Look...I know I'm a bloke and so I'm not naturally good at this stuff but...Well, I'm not going to be as good as if mum were here but I'm the best you've got to listen to you. Unless you want to talk to dad."
Woah. Deep convo, all because of Dave. "I think I'll pass on that one."
4:50pm
"I think you should talk to Dave."
"People keep saying that." I pouted. "Can't I just become a hermit crab and hide forever?"
Kyle laughed. "Anna Helen Oldsworth, if you do not get your arse to Dave's house, I will make it my lifes purpose to make yours miserable."
"Fine, I'm going!"
5:00pm
Why did I say that? Why am I walking down the next street? Why?
Oh. I don't even know which house is Dave's.
5:20pm
Wondering up and down the road. There's four little boys playing football that keep staring at me every time I pass. Maybe they know Dave.
"Excuse me lads." They stared. "Do any of you live on this street?" Two nods. "Do you know someone called Dave that lives here?" One pointed to a house two doors up from where I was stood. "Thanks boys." Went to walk off but they were all still staring. "Uh...here go buy yourself a lolly pop." I handed the boy closest to me a two pound coin and walked off, happy that they'd left me alone.
5:30pm
I need to knock, but my arm won't move.
A few seconds later
Hit the doorbell and then cringed. Oh god, I hope Dave answers the door and not his parents. That's be...
"Hello?"
Awkward. "Uh..hi, is this where Dave lives?"
"Yes, it is. He's up in his room, come in." What? Got pulled into the house by the woman. "Go straight upstairs and right infront is another staircase. Go up and knock on. That's Dave's room."
"Um, thanks." Slowly made my way upstairs. And up the seconds staircase. Infront of Dave's door. He has a white piece of card stuck there that read 'The Laugh's Room. Knock first.'
And so I did.
A few more seconds later.
"Come in." Pushed the door open and stepped inside. "You took your time." Dave was sat in a window seat, looking down at the street below.
"What?"
"You've been walking up and down for twenty minutes and you were stood outside for ten." He mumbled. Crap.
"Uh...Dave. I-."
"Why should I listen Anna?" He turned to look at me. He was most definitely the unlaugh now. "I came to apologize this morning and you ran off and then you treated me life a stranger for no reason this afternoon."
"For no reason? Dave you-"
"I know, that's why I was coming to apologize this morning. But sod it...if you want an apology, whistle for it." He looked back out the window.
"Fine." I left his room and his house, ignoring the woman that had let me in. I ran home, past Kyle and Dad and into my room. I locked the door, flung myself on the bed and let myself cry.
