Chapter 23 ~ Love Me Or Love Me
Brianna's POV
I wake up the next day on my bed. I don't know how I got home, but that's not the point. I'm home, and I'm going to relax all day. I don't bother changing out of my pajamas and walk downstairs to grab a bowl of cereal. I take down the cereal box and pour it into my bowl. I put the milk in, take a spoon, and munch away. My mom walks downstairs. "Morning," I say with cereal in my mouth. "Morning Hun," she says and heads to the coffee maker.
After breakfast, I brush my teeth and sit in the couch and watch tv. The perfect way to spend your Saturday morning, huh? My mom walks back upstairs with her cup of coffee and a magazine.
I hear the doorbell ring. "I'll be right there!" I call out flipping the channel. The bell rings again. "I said I'll be right there!" I turn the volume down to only a few bars and walk to the door. I hear multiple people talking outside. I open the door and see everyone outside. "Oh," I say, "hey guys." They all say hi back. Will walks downstairs. He stares at them for a while and then walks to the kitchen. "What are you guys doing here?" I ask.
"Remember on Tuesday when we went to the water park but it was closing early?" Jade says.
"Yeah."
"We're going today instead."
"Ok..." I say. "Can I at least get ready first?"
Jade holds up my pool bag. "You left it in my car on Tuesday."
"Oh, ok then." I say, "I'm going to go change and I'll be right back." I close the door and walk back upstairs. I knock on the door of my mom's room. "I'm going to Bailey's house," I say. I hear mom say a muffled 'ok' and 'be safe' from inside. I pick out an outfit from my outfit and walk back downstairs. Will is at the dining room table on his phone. "I'm going with the group," I say. He gives me a grunt, which I assume means something along the lines of 'I don't care.'
I grab the house keys and head out the door. Everyone is on my lawn except for Jade. I don't know where she is. I wonder what my neighbor's are thinking right now. A bunch of teenagers on my front lawn. What a wonderful sight to see. "Ready?" Heather asks. I nod my head. "Same arrangements as last night. Jade is in her car already." We walk over to her car and I sit in the back seat this time. I usually sit in the passenger seat, but I made an exception today.
"Hey," I say to her.
"Hey," she says starting the car.
"Where's my bag?" I ask buckling my seat belt.
"In Shawn's car."
"WHAT?" Why would she trust them with it?
"They were bored waiting for you, so I gave them your bag so they could look inside it."
"WHY?!"
"I just said. They were bored."
"Ugh, whatever. There's nothing embarrassing in there anyways."
We go a few minutes without talking and I break the silence by saying, "Heather?"
"Yeah, Bri?"
"So, Adelaide's your sister, huh?"
"Yeah, so?" She asks turning around in her seat to face me. "Wait, how do you know?"
"I have my ways..." Like I said, I am the ultimate stalker. Except for that one time in seventh grade when Bailey was obsessed with this one guy she had a crush on. She followed him around everywhere. And I mean, everywhere. Except for the bathroom. That would be too creepy. She gave him notes, like creepy notes. Like, "love me or love me" notes.
He ended up moving away freshman year.
"I am officially scared now," Heather says tuning around.
Hey guys! Shorter chapter, I know. Especially compared to the last one. See ya all in the next chapter!
Till then,
