hi there! i managed to write a chapter for you guys! i might write another one tomorrow, but until then here is this one! it is kind of an important one. so read and REVIEW! :)
Well the week went by without incident. Jonny only left my side to go to the bathroom and I saw no sign of Austin again. I still hadn't forgiven Jonny for what he did, and I was nowhere near ready to. I have a tendency to hold grudges. I had been looking forward to the weekend until I found out my aunt and uncle were taking a trip to Johnson City. That meant being alone with my grandma for two days. The last time I was alone with her for a day we almost killed each other. This would not be fun. I only had biomedical technology left, unless you count driver's ed after school for another three hours. We had a vocab quiz which only took us about fifteen minutes and the rest of the 75 minutes left in the period were ours to do whatever we wanted. Jonny came and took his seat next to me and I just decided to doze off. I woke up a few minutes before the senior bell was about to ring. Yeah the seniors got to leave 10 minutes before everyone else. Jonny finally noticed I was awake.
"Hey sleeping beauty." He said smiling brilliantly.
"Hey." I said groggily wishing I didn't have on makeup so I could rub my eyes.
"Hey Alls, I have a lot of stuff I need to do today, so I'm gonna leave at the senior bell." He informed me.
That woke me right up. "You can't do that!" I whispered at him.
"Yeah I can." he laughed.
"You'll get in major trouble!"
"Um seniors can leave at the senior bell Ally. I thought you knew how that worked." He replied.
"Since when are you a senior?" I asked getting more and more confused.
"You didn't know I was a senior?" he asked honestly surprised.
"Uh no. I kinda just assumed you were a junior. Wait a minute. How come you have never left at the senior bell before?"
"I wanted to spend more time with you." He said winking and getting up just as the bell rang. I was left speechless. I started to rethink everything. I mean I know two years isn't that much of a difference but still. I was flattered beyond belief that a junior liked me and now knowing he was a senior just blew my mind. In that moment I figured out that Jonny must've had really strong feelings for me because he could get any girl he wanted. He was extremely good looking, captain of the football team, and add senior onto that, he was a babe magnet. Yet he was sticking around with a sophomore who wouldn't even give him the time of day. I still wasn't going to forgive him but I guess I could take it a little easier on him. I was still thinking about Austin all the time. But I was starting to wonder if I should just forget about him. I had no reason to have any kind of feelings for him. Sure he kind of saved me, I told him something about my past, we had a moment. But nothing else. Maybe I should focus on friends instead of guys from now on. I was thinking this all through during driver's ed. The car ride home was pretty silent other than my aunt giving me instructions about the weekend and when to give my grandma her pills and stuff. They dropped me off at the end of the driveway and drove off so they could get on the road. I started my hike up our driveway and was about to the top when I stopped dead in my tracks. Jonny was standing in front of my house holding a bunch of heart shaped balloons standing by a giant poster that said "Will you go to homecoming with me?" I was caught totally off guard and had no words to say. I hadn't even thought about homecoming here. He was standing there smiling waiting for his answer but the only word I could conjure up was "Um…" He walked up to me and took my hand. Wow this was like déjà vu.
"I really like you Ally. I know you are still angry with me for what I did at the party," I cringed at the mention of that, "I understand. It was horrible. I just want to be with you. And I feel like you are the only one I can really talk to." He said taking a step closer. In that moment my mind went blank accept for one face. Austin's. But you know what. It wasn't Austin standing here asking me to homecoming, it was his brother.
Again the only word I could force out was "Ok." But this time I was saying more happily than last time. And this time instead of hugging me and spinning me around, he closed the distance between us and kissed me. I tensed up at first but relaxed after a few seconds. He was the first to pull away. My eyes were still closed. So that's what a first kiss is supposed to be like. I was still floating down from heaven when he snapped me out of my haze by stepping away a little bit.
"I should get going, but I'll call you later." he said obviously happier than he was a few minutes ago. He handed me the balloons and gave me another peck before he walked off toward his house. I stood there for another minute before I pulled out my phone and took a picture of the giant poster and sent it to all of my friends. I then put it inside the garage and went into the house. My grandma was taking a nap which I was grateful for because she hadn't noticed that I was a little late walking in the door. Right away I was greeted by our dogs, the best part of getting home every day. They attacked me with kisses and I sat down so I could pet them when my phone started vibrating like crazy. All my friends were responding and congratulating me. All of a sudden I got a text from Max. CRAP! I completely forgot to respond to him on Saturday! I felt like such a jerk. I hesitantly opened his text.
To Ally: Hey Alls, I heard you have a boyfriend now. I guess that kind of answered my question. That's great. I hope you're happy.
Man news really spreads fast. I wasn't mad at any of my friends for telling people, it just surprised me that people actually cared. Well when it came to my personal life they always cared. I am just surprised that nobody had really asked me why I really moved. I mean my closest friends knew but no one questioned why I was moving out of the blue. It's probably a good thing they didn't though because I wouldn't have explained to them anyway. Only a few people know that my mom is the reason we moved and can't go back. Only a few people know that we moved but she didn't move with us. Even fewer people know that my mom is sitting in a drug rehab in Indiana.
big reveal there! review and let me know what you think!
