Part 7
I wasn't home until midnight. Let me just say, sneaking into my own residence, not exactly fun. After having tripped on the steps and falling down the flight in the main hall, I wasn't in the best mood. I blamed the kiss I'd shared with Georgie for it. I prayed no one woke as I tip-toed to my room and closed the door. I didn't bother with the turning on the light as I changed and slipped into bed, drifting off.
[...have you ever wondered, why I'm always alone when you're in my dreams...]
I already knew what my dreams would center on tonight.
It was eleven in the morning when I finally woke up. I sat up in bed, yawning. My thoughts fell back to the night before, in Georgie's yard. Smiling, I stepped out of bed to get a shower and dress.
The doorbell rang as I headed down the steps. The butler answered and I heard a voice that made me stop in my tracks.
"Is Dillon here?" A tiny voice asked. What was she doing here? I thought as I stepped into the hall.
"What are you doing here?" I asked, rather coldly.
"Dillon! Hi!" Maxie stepped toward me. "I need to talk to you. its important."
"About what?" I questioned. Last I'd checked, I wasn't on Maxie's favorites list.
"Georgie" She didn't seem very comfortable. "Come on, we'll go to Kelly's and talk there." I nodded. Still, I can't tell you why I'd said yes; or even why Maxie had shown up where I lived. I guess because Georgie was involved.
We sat at Kelly's a few minutes later and looked at the menu's in silence. "Can I help you?" The waitress from yesterday asked.
"I'll have a hamburger and coffee," Maxie told her.
"And for you?" she asked, turning to me.
"Umm. I have a cheeseburger and coke," I told her.
"Alright. Those'll be right up," she told us, and walked back toward the kitchen.
We stared at each other in silence for a few minutes before I finally spoke. "What did you need to talk to me about?"
Maxie sighed. "Are you and my sister dating?"
I felt shock overcome my face. I shook my head side to side, "No. What on earth gave you that idea?"
[...you read my eyes just like your diary...]
She crossed her arms in front of her and leaned closer before speaking. "Dillon, I saw you two last night." she continued after seeing the look of confusion on my face. "I know that you came by last night. I was still up. I heard the pebbles. I know I shouldn't have, but I looked out and I saw you kiss Georgie. Why did you run away afterwards?" I just shook my head.
"I don't know."
Maxie looked at me for a moment before continuing. "Dillon," she sighed. "Dillon, Georgie likes you. Okay? When she came back upstairs, I bumped into her in the hallway," She paused momentarily, "Dillon," I looked at her, "she looked so happy. I can't even explain how happy she was..."
"Here's your food," the waitress said, placing out orders in front of us.
"She was?" I asked, not believing Maxie in the least.
"Yeah," she nodded, picking up her burger and starting to eat. I did the same.
