Thank you to everyone who reviewed! Made me happy!
Sonny's POV
I'm stressing, I'm stressing and it's only homeroom. What the hell should I do if they meet or if I'm with one and the other walks in? I need to get everything sorted.
Caitlyn is the sensible choice. She's safe and won't step out her comfort zone. But Carter is reckless and adventurous. They're pretty much polar opposites. But I know who I want to pursue a hopeful relationship with.
Anyway I need to focus on teaching first. Okay I need to do attendance.
Where's Alex? Just as I ask that she walks through the door and walks over to me.
"Uh, had a small run in with the 'bitch' - Tawni. I recommend moving her away from Miley. She knows now. And your daughter decided to attack me with kisses." She says in one breath. I knew she'd be later from being on crutches but her explanation tells me why she was fifteen minutes late for homeroom.
"Okay, well the bell's going to go soon, why don't you head to your next class then." I say as I nod to her and smile a huge smile to her, knowing she defended herself, Mitchie and probably Miley.
She heads off and a few minutes later the bell goes. After the last person leave I groan in annoyance and sit down.
"Tough morning?" I hear a familiar voice ask.
"Uh sort of." I reply to Caitlyn and the worst possible thing happens. Carter appears at the door.
"Hi beautiful." She says, making Caitlyn's eyes pretty much pop out of head. Oh gosh no, no. I give Carter a look. I kind of told her about Caitlyn. Well more let slip. She was okay when I said she worked at the school, but at the same time she didn't say she'd behave. Oh great I forgot about the glint in her eye when she said that it was okay. Oh something's going to start.
"I'm sorry who are you and why did you say that? How do you know each other?" Caitlyn rambles on; I'm not used to this, I'm not even ready fully for this.
"You must be Caitlyn. I'm Carter and I was complimenting a beautiful lady. We've bumped each other a few times." Carter replies with a smirk on her face as she slowly walks into the room.
"Whatever," Caitlyn ignores Carter and turns back to me. "Would you like to go out for dinner again?" She asks, making my mouth form an 'o' shape.
"Uh C-Caitlyn, I-I have plans f...For tomorrow." I stutter out. God I sound like Mitchie when she was with Alex.
"Oh uh what are you doing?" She digs, into my private life, I hear Carter softly scoff at her. My eyes drift over to Carter and see what she's wearing, skinny jeans and a t shirt with her name tag attached to her shirt. She's rugged but beautiful. And she's smirking. Oh she caught me staring.
"Hello Sonny, why are you staring at her?" Caitlyn asks, making Carter's smirk turn slightly into a frown. I sigh realising I should just tell her.
"Caitlyn, I have a second date tomorrow." I tell her and see shock cross her face.
"With who?" She asks the one question I feared and Carter decides to break out in a smile.
"Me." She says as she walks around to sit in a seat in front of my desk. Caitlyn raises her eyebrow at me, questioning me. I nod and smile at Carter.
"So you've been on a date before with, her?" She says with a hint of jealousy lacing her voice as she looks at Carter. "You know what, fine I hope you enjoy being used for one thing. She is just one of those people," she begins to walk out of the room but stops and turns around. "And you're nothing special either." That hurt.
When she walked out I could feel tears form in my eyes. I know that I shouldn't feel like this, but I used to be bullied when I was younger and I suppose that what she said was what used to be said all the time. I feel a Carter's hands take mine in them and pull me into her as she hugs me.
"Its okay, what she said isn't true. And you're so much more than what anybody thinks." She whispers out, comforting me. I hold onto her feeling like she'll disappear if I don't.
"I-I shouldn't let that affect me, b-but that's what I used t... to get when I was younger." I say through sniffles as my tears stop.
"Well people are crazy to say anything bad against you," Carter says holding my hands and leans in to place a kiss on my cheek, making a blush appear on my cheeks. "Now, I came here to ask you if you could definitely come on the date, and I'm guessing a yes." She says making me smile at how sweet she can be.
"Yes I can go." I say with a smile, I'll let Mitchie know when I see her.
"Great, and we need to go right after school, is that okay?" She asks as she intertwines our fingers together.
"Yeah, I'll let Mitchie know I won't be home till later." I inform her and smile knowing I'll spend the day with Carter. This alone makes me smile, the fact it's a date makes me feel like a teenager again.
"Perfect. I need to go, got some paper work to fill out, just not as much as I would if I was at the hospital." She says with a chuckle. Her eyes have a sparkle in them when she's happy and a glint in them when she's up to something. Her eyes are honestly amazing though.
"Okay, I'll see you later." I say as she lets go of my hands and I miss them already, but she cups my cheeks and leans in for a small quick peck.
"Bye beautiful." She says with a wink, leaving me dazed until the bell goes.
Mitchie's POV
Why the hell did I tell Alex that, why did I even act like that? God I'm an idiot.
"Mitchie, come here before you sit down," My mom says as I walk into English. "I uh, have a date with Carter and we're going right after school, so take the car." She says giving me the car keys. I nod and go over to my seat, and just as I do Alex comes in.
"Hi." She whispers as she sits down.
"Hey," I respond gaining a blush in the process. Why? I don't even know. "Uh I'm taking you home, mom has a date." I say as I show her the keys before I put them away in my bag.
"Okay, I'll just meet you at your locker at the end of the day, since we have maths last. I won't be with you then." She says with a smile and the class begins.
End of the day
I'm walking from my maths class and I pass Carter, I smile at her and she stops to talk to me.
"Hey, uh you wouldn't happen to know what your mom's favourite flower is would you?" She asks me with a hopeful look in her eye.
"Yeah lilies, preferably red ones." I say with a smile hoping she could get them.
"Okay great, thank you so much." She chuckles and begins to walk away.
"Have a good date." I shout before she turns the corner, she stops and her smiles before shouting a 'thanks' back.
As I get to my locker I grab the homework I have and wait for Alex. I haven't even seen her since the end of English; she wasn't in any of our classes after.
After a few minutes she arrives and gives me a kiss before we walk to the car. As we get there I see a bouquet of white and red roses on the roof of the car. I turn to look at Alex who has a perfect sparkle in her eye.
"Happy four month anniversary." She says with a huge smile. I squeal and hug her without trying to hurt her.
"Thank you, you're amazing." I say as I kiss her and pick up the flowers.
"I'd take you on a date, but I can't drive and I didn't really want our parents taking us, and I didn't know about your mom having a date and giving you the car. By the time I found out it was too late to book a table anywhere." She rambles on but I cut her off before anything else is said.
"Alex! I don't mind, the fact you got me these and I'll spend the day with you is enough." I say and give her another kiss. She holds the door open for me to get into the car. Even when she's hurt she still does so much for me.
The drive home was in a comfortable silence, however I feel slightly nervous, this is our five month anniversary and we have the house to ourselves. But whatever happens is okay with me. We pull up into the drive and I shut the engine off, but it made a really weird noise before it cut off.
"Huh, I think I know the problem with the engine there." Alex says as she gets out of the car, leaving me slightly confused as to what happened. She lifts the hood up and I can't see what she's doing. I sit there thinking how she knows what's wrong with the engine. I think back to the day we met the Russo family and Alex was covered in oil. She was working on her car. God it took me that long to remember that.
After about five minutes later she put the hood down and moves over to my side of the car.
"Try starting the engine and then turning it off." She says, I do as she says as the car works ten times smoother than before.
"How did you know what to do?" I ask her as I get out of the car and grab our bags.
"Well my car, used to do that all the time and I found out what was wrong with it and began to work on it," She says as we walk into my house. "I want my car back so I can work on it again. I miss just cleaning the engine or fixing small parts that were broke." She says as she goes to clean her hands and I walk over to the kitchen. Since she was amazing and got me flowers and was going to take me to dinner, I'm going to make dinner.
"Hey, what do you want for dinner?" I ask, knowing she'll be hungry later since she her mom is taking her to the physio in a few minutes.
"Uh surprise me; I'll come over after I've been to the physical-therapist." She says as she comes over a kiss my cheek. I turn around and wrap my arms around her neck and pull her in for a kiss.
"I love you." I say as we pull away from needing air.
"I love you too Stutter." She says as gives me one final kiss and walks to the door to go to her appointment.
When she closes the door behind her I go into crazy mode and run about the house like a mad-man, I want today to be perfect. I find red flower petals in the cupboard, my mom kept them so we can use them on Valentine's Day. Valentine's Day can wait, this is more important.
I scatter them about the house and in my room; I kind of just threw the bag about and got them to go everywhere. After doing that, I decide to cook a pasta dish, since I know Alex loves pasta, well Alex really likes all food. But pasta it is.
Alex's POV
That was not as bad as it used to be, hopefully I'll be off these soon. My recovery is quicker than most I was told.
"Mom, I'm going to Mitchie's for dinner, since it's our four month anniversary." I tell her with a smile tugging at the corners of my mouth as I think about Mitchie.
My mom drops me off and I stand outside Mitchie's front door and knock on it before opening it. "Hey, it's just me." I say as I turn around to close the door.
When I turn around I put my crutches down and look at the scene in front of me, rose petals everywhere dimmed lights, candles and the smell of something amazing cooking.
"Happy anniversary." I hear Mitchie say as she walks to stand in front of me, she's wearing a short black dress and has a small box in her hands. "I uh g-got you this." She says handing the box over to me.
I open it and can't believe what's in it. "Mitch... y-you didn't have to." I say with tears pricking at me eyes.
