Jamie fell asleep and knowing he wasn't supposed too. He fell asleep on the floor next to the couch where Catie was.
She was slowly awakened by the front door opening - it was Jamie's parents. She shook Jamie awake. Her heart was beating fast. What would they say? Do they let girls stay overnight at Jamie's house? No way! Never in his lifetime.
"Jamie! Your parents!" She whispered. She rolled down on top of him so his parents wouldn't see her.
Jamie's one eye opened, he glanced at the clock - "9 o' clock!" Thoughts ran through his mind, PARENTS - "I'm DEAD!"
"Jamie, we - I have to get out of here, your parents will KILL you!" The word 'kill' gave her chills.
His parents finally started talking to eachother and they listened carefully what they were talking about, "I can't believe we had to spend the WHOLE night at the police station." He father said.
"I wonder if Jamies' alright?" Jamie's mother said, thoughtfully.
"Yeah, he'll be fine, Jamie's a strong kid." His father said. "I'm getting some sleep - being down at the police station fighting for some speeding ticket that wasn't even me - IT'S was that car in front of us, I'll tell ya, those new speed traps are terrible. They don't even know if your the car who's speeding." His father, rammbled on and on.
"I know honey, at least you won and you fought for what was right." Jamie heard his mother kissing his father and saying GOODNIGHT.
Catie sat still on top of Jamie untill they heard his parents going up the stairs and shutting the door. "Thank heavens!" She said.
"Whoa," Jamie began, "That was scary, I thought I was toast!"
"Well, I better get home." Catie said as she sat up onto the couch.
Jamie was staring at her. Her hair was a mess - her two ponytails were crooked and some way, she still looked beautiful to him. "I've never seen you more beautiful then you are right now." Jamie said, all starry-eyed.
Catie blushed and she pulled out her two ponytails fastly and shook her head, hard so her hair would be straight. "Do you have a brush here?"
"Of course, what do you think I do? String my fingers through my hair?" He joked and she giggled.
"No, never. But, can I have the brush for a minute, PLEASE?" She smiled and waited. He stood up and left the room and came back in with a purple brush.
"Oh... purple." She laughed, "Girlish - don't ya think?"
"It's my MOTHERS." He corrected, "Let me use it when your done."
"Alright." She moved it through her hair softly and handed it to him.
"Man, my gel's upstairs." Jamie said, wide-eyed.
"So, go up and get it?" Catie said standing up and straightening out her black skirt and purple shirt she'd had on since yesterday morning. Catie's mom was probably already out looking for her. Catie picked up the phone.
"Who are you calling?" Jamie asked, first. "and okay I'll go upstairs and get the gel while your calling someone." He said, weirdly. He didn't know what just came out of his mouth.
She nodded, "Mom?"
"Honey, where are you?!"
Catie decided to make up a lie, "I'm at Val's house, her mom is..." SHe search for something to say, "at the hospital because her father had another heart attack." then Catie realized that was a terrible thing to say.
"Ohh! Is he alright?"
Catie paniced, what should she say? "Umm... yeah, he's fine. They're on there way home now, I'll be home in a while, Val really needs me."
"Okay, honey, that's alright then." Her mother's voice was a little shaky. "Just don't be out ang longer."
"Bye!" Catie hung up fastly so her mother wouldn't head Jamie talking as he walked down the steps. His hair was perfect, "Jamie, I swear you need to be a hairstylist." Each and every spike was perfectly done.
He shrugged and grabbed an orange off the table, "Nahh... not my thing."
She decided against telling him what she told her mother. "Well, what now? I don't want to wake your parents up."
"Hmm..." He thought, "Did you call your mom?"
"Of course," Then she decided to tell him what she said in case he spilt out what the past day was like in front of her mom, "I sort of told her I been at Val's because her father had another heart attack."
He almost choked on a piece of orange, "CATIE!"
"What?"
"That's terrible! What's Val going to say? You have to tell your mother the truth sometimes or she's going to be talking to Val's mom and ask her how Val's dad's doing and it'll all be a disaster!"
"Well, no offense Jamie, but this is already a disaster." Catie said, truly.
"I guess you're right. I mean, this is a HUGE disaster!" Jamie calmed down a little.
"Jamie, I mean, what are we going to do? We can't tell our parents! They'll call the police - if they even believe us! I can't turn to VAL, I mean, I just couldn't face her after I said that to my mother. I have to tell my mom the truth. She'll understand." Suddenly, she REALLY regretted what she'd said.
"Don't worry we'll get through this... together." Jamie said, carefully going on the couch next to Catie and put his arm around her.
"You're right, but I still think I need to call Val - again. I mean, what was she doing with Tyler that early? The park?" Jamie shrugged. She sat there, thinking, and her stomach churned as an image of Jesse entered her mind.
