This Love

Chapter 7

"Okay, so what are you going to wear?" Asked Ally as i smashed my locker hard, looking at her sternly.
"Ally James im not going" i said and started walking in opposite direction.
"But Eva-" she said running after me.
"Eva tell Ally we are not going to that party" said Mason as we catched up to him.
"Oh my God you two, can't you just for once agree with me?" Said Ally looking at us.
Me and Mason looked at each other for a moment and then replied:
"No"
"Aahhhhh" groaned Ally as we made our way to the ground outside.
"Ally do you even consider what might happen if we show up at Carter's house? He's already making our lives hell in school, have thought about what he might do to us in his own damn house?"
"Ally he might kill us brutally and bury our body somewhere in his huge house, no one will ever find us."
"Oh stop being dramatic you two, he won't do anything and besides there would be too many people at the party for him or anyone to notice us."
Me and Mason again looked at each other for a moment as we sat down next to a tree.
"No" we said again looking at Ally.

The rest of the week was better at school because of Carter's absence. He was suspended from the school for hitting Mason and as i enjoyed the days without any torture from him, i dreaded the time when he comes back . I'm sure he wouldn't have been happy about being suspended and wondered what he would do to me and Mason.
I groaned at being distracted again. I was on my bed working on that english project which Carter William was suppose to do. I was beyond angry, this was a lengthy project and i didn't want to do alone. I even went to miss Jean to ask her for a new partner but she refused.
I throwed my pen across the room and groaned again. After a few minutes i heard the door bell ring. Getting up i rushed to the door as i opened it i saw a women in her early thirties standing in front of me. She had blond hair and a beautiful smile.
"Hello, you must be Eva" she said coming forward and hugging me.
"Hi" i replied taken aback by her hug, i have no idea who she is.
"Im Jennifer" she said aftet seeing my confusion.
"Oh-hi um... come in" i said moving aside as she stepped in. This was the women my father told me about that day.
"Dad has gone out for something, he will be back soon though." I said as we reached the living room. I motioned for her to sit on the couch.
"Do you....need anything?"
"No, im good" she said.
I stood there like a dumb not knowing what do say or do, i wanted to leave but i didnt want to be rude.
"You can sit next to me, i took a bath before coming"
I smiled and sat next to her, she had humour, that was good. At this point i was totally judging her.
"So Eva, tell me about yourself." She said turing towards me.
"Um...i don't know what to tell."
"Anything would do."
I thought for a second what to tell her, something random but didn't come up with anything.
"I don't really have anything." I said again.
"What's your favourite sweet dish." She said out of the blue.
"Um.....i like cookies."
She got up to her feet and looked at me.
"Do you have the ingredients?"
"Yes...i guess" i replied standing up to.
She started moving towardd the kichen saying:
"Lets make cookies then."

We were sitting on the kitchen counter, eating the cookies Jennifer made. I have to admit they were really good. My father still
"So you tell me about yourself." I said.
"Me? Well i work at an advertising company, its not a very much but pays of the bills and lets me shop"
"What do you want to do after high school?" She asked.
"I have no idea" i replied taking another bite of my cookie. I have thought before what i wanted to do with my future but didn't come up with anything."
"Okay i think i would be heading back now." She said grasping the last bite of her cookie. "Eva if you need help regarding anything you can tell me okay? I'm always here to talk."
Eva looked at Jennifer with a small smile.
"I know what your trying to do..." said Eva.
"Get along with you just for the sake of your father?" She replied with a laugh. "No, its not just that. When your father first told me about the four of you i was so excited, i wanted to meet you all so bad."
She sighed for a moment.
"I've never had children and i can never have them so i guess i just really want you all to like me."
"Oh i'm....." I started, fumbling through my mind to find the right words.
"Its fine, we all lose words sometime" she said dismissing the topic with the wave of her hand.
"We dont mind you being part of our dad's life, i think you will be good for him." I said trying to make her feel better.
"And what about your life?" She asked looking towards me directly.
"I already have a mother but i think we will get along good." I said carefully.
I don't know why i said that mother part, maybe i should'nt have. But i just wanted to let her know that we did have a mother and no one takes her place here even if i don't talk to my mom anymore she is still my mom and i don't want to change that.
"Great! Now i need to get going" said Jennifer standing up.
I stood up along side her as she picked her bag.
"It was so nice meeting you and making cookies together, i hope you had fun." She said as she hugged me.
"Yes it was fun to make cookies and they tasted great we should do that again sometime." I replied hugging her back.
"Goodbye" she said as she walked towards the door leaving me with this uneasy feeling for the rest of the day.
