Tuesday

7:13

Sunlight drained into Massie's room as she lay in her bed, still sleeping. The bright light highlighted her innocent, white room that could blind anyones eyes. Of course, Massie was fast asleep, dreaming about Derrick and her white dwarf-horse, Nibbles.

"Massie? Honey? Why aren't you up yet?" Kendra walked into her room and instantly reacted to the blinding light.

"My gosh, we have to redecorate your room."

She glanced at Massie, who was still sleeping.

"Sweetie, you gotta get up." She pushed a button on a white, egg shaped, remote , that automatically shut her purple CK silk curtains.

"Mmmf. Five more minutes, Mom." She turned away from her mother, who had her hands on her hips.

"You always wake up by yourself, Mass. Is something wrong? How are you and Derrick? Did he say or do something to you? I swear, boys these days, they'll do anything for a pretty girl like you."

Massie took this as a signal to get up. Or else she'd be stuck confessing to her mom that she had slept late yesterday, while thinking about what to do about Derrick. And Ryan. And Dempsey.

She carefully got up, trying to hide her hickey. But, as always, her mom always found out when she was sneaking something around.

"What is on your neck?"

She froze, then quickly covered it. Massie widened her eyes and looked right at her mom's hazel eyes.

"You know, isn't it wierd how I inherited amber eyes, even though you have hazel eyes, and dad has green. Maybe it was Grandma Jillian." She smiled, hoping that would take her mind off the hickey.

"No, it wasn't Grandma Jillian, but my great aunt Celine, she had a sister named Rebecca, who had the amber eyes. That's also why your middle name- " Kendra stopped, realizing her mistake.

"Massie Rebecca Block," Kendra started. She looked angry, but there's was a twinkle of mischievousness in her eyes. " Was it Derrick?"

Massie blushed and looked down, while biting her lip and nodding.

"Massie, thats wonderful, you got back with Derrick."

"Actually, no, mom. I'm not really sure if i wanna go out with Derrick yet."

"Why? Is it because of that African rescuer boy?..what was his name again?... it started with a D, too."

Massie rolled her eyes and thought of her and Derrick while her mother rambled on. Was she and Derrick an "item" now?

Nope. She would go out on a date with each of them and then decide who to go out with. Yeah, that seemed like the mature thing to do.

"You mean Dempsey?" Massie offered, while glancing at her Joe Jonas Clock.

"Yes, that's what it was."

Massie grinned and said, " Mom, I'm kinda getting late for school, so..."

"Oh... yes.I'm sorry, Mass, I just got caught up with the moment. Well, go ahead, get a move on."

She turned and started to walk and just as she reached her door, she tuned around and gazed at Massie with a confident and proud smile. "Massie, if there's anything you need, or anything you need to talk about, come tell me, ok? I'm here for you."

Massie felt really glad there. Her mother really cared. She had to make it up for her.

"Mom?"

" This Sunday, you wanna go into the city and hang out? You know, just the two of us?" Kendra raised her eyebrows." Uh, only if you have the time,though. You don't need to cancel anything."

"Of course, Massie, I'd love too. Some mother-daughter time would be perfect for us. Now hurry up, Issac will start honking again."

Massie nodded and practically waltzed to the master bathroom.

--oo--

When she finished taking a bath and drying her hair, Massie looked at the clock and found out that it was 7:58. There was only two more minutes until Issac came to pick them up. Hastily, she dropped her purple bathrobe and leaped towards the enormous closet.

Quickly, she took her turquoise Miss Sixty mini and her white DKNY tank top. She slid on her mini and top while looking for her blue,green and purple baby doll and layered it over her soft tank.

She chose to put on some bright blue skater vans.

As she finished dressing up, Massie looked into the mirror and said, "Malibu Hottie!" She winked at her self and put on some Lancome India Ink and swiped some Juicy lipgloss. Just as she was about to leave her room, she looked at herself in the full lenght mirror and rushed to her closet to change her shoes. She took out some cute Hollister flip flops. One of the only things she found appealing while accompanying Kristen to the mall one time. She took her baby blue Balenciaga and stuffed her books and folders into it.

As she came downstairs, Massie swiftly grabbed her english report off the printer in the home office and kissed her dad's cheek.

"Luv ya!"

"Hold it, young lady! What about breakfast?"

She smiled weakly."Starbucks?"

"And a cinnamon coffee cake." he nodded sternly.

"Fine." She groaned.

--oo--

Claire stared at Massie's outfit.

"What?"

"You're wearing a mini without tights and its freezing outside." Claire joked.

"You're right!"

Massie pressed a button and immediately, a rack of clothes popped out of no where.

She grabbed her light wash, pre-ripped and bleached, Chip and Pepper skinny jeans, and changed in 3 seconds flat.

"Whoa. Since when do you listen to my fashion advice?"

"Since forever." She replied.

--oo--

"Hey! You're wearing the flip flops!" Kristen gushed
.

Massie grinned.

Soon, they reached BOCD. A group of boys were gathered around Massie's oak, whom they soon recognized to be the Tomahawks.

"Wait. Aren't we going to song walk?" Alicia asked.

"No..lets just go."

They looked at each other, searching for an explanation.

Massie casually walked to the oak.

"Heyy guys."

They looked up. Josh went over to hug Alicia, while Derrick winked at Massie. Suddenly, Josh zeroed in on Massie's neck.

He wolf-whistled. "Whoa, Massie, what's that I see."

Everyone followed his gaze to Massie's neck and gasped or snickered.

"Wow, who gave you it?"

Derrick and Massie turned crimson.

Massie felt like killing Josh for mentioning it.

"Was it Derrick?" He teased.

Ryan was also looking at it, but in a more angrier way.

He was about to something when Derrick interrupted him.

"Hey Block, guess what these are?" He held up two black and gold tickets, and two backstage passes.

"No way!! Is that what I think it is?"

He merely smiled and nodded.

"Yes!! Joe Jonas, this is when you meet your true love, Massie Block." She put her hands over Derrick's neck and gave him a big kiss, in front of everyone.

"Hey?! Maybe we shouldn't go for this concert." Derrick complained.

Everyone laughed. "So I get to take you? As my date?" Derrick grinned hopefully.

"Yep. Its a date." She half smiled. '

"A date, huh?" The PC and the Tomahawks tuned to find Dempsey scowling at Derrick, looking like...looking like something allright...
