"Mom?" I call softly as I open the door to her house with my key. There's no answer so I call her name again but louder."I'm coming sweetheart!" She yells. I exhale and look around the room, amazed at how different everything looks.
"Hi Wyatt!" My mom say as she steps off the stairs and towards me. She wraps her arms around me in a tight hug and kisses me on the cheek. I breathe in the scent on Japanese Cherry Blossom she always has before she steps back, keeping her hands on my shoulders. "What brings you around? It's been a while." She says and I roll my eyes.
"Mom. It's Wednesday. I was here Sunday with Easton." I remind her and she laughs.
"It seems so much longer than that. Speaking of Easton, where is he? You two are usually attached at the hip." She says and saunters off into the kitchen. I follow behind her still mesmerized by how different the house looks.
"That's actually what I needed your help with." I say.
"What do you mean?" She asks.
"You might want to sit down for this." I tell her. She furrows her eyebrows but does what I said, sitting at the other side of the table. I take a seat as well before taking a big breath and telling her the story.
"I met someone-"
"Someone other than Easton?"
"Yes, mom now please don't interrupt me like that yeah?" I say and she nods. "But I met him last night and it was amazing."

Flashback

"Blue? My eyes are blue?" I ask and he nods smiling slightly. I take the opportunity to look around the room, taking in all of the new colors I am seeing. "Wow. This is amazing." I breathe and he nods."It really is isn't it?" He sighs and I nod looking back at him. I look into his eyes trying to decipher the color within them from what I was taught in school.
Green. I think. With speckles of another color...
"Hey now don't hurt yourself." He laughs with an arm on my shoulder. I look down at me feet and see that I have shuffled a few feet to the left. I blink away the slight blur that has clouded my vision from focusing on one thing for too long. I shake my head a little and just look at him. Trying to decide if I should say something or wait for him to.
He smiles warmly at me and I return it, neither of us speaking still. "So uh- what's your name?" He asks and looks down at his hands, twirling a ring that is on his right ring finger, before looking back at me.
"Wyatt." I say and he smiles.
"Pretty name for a pretty girl." He says smirking.
"Cheesy line for a cheesy guy." I retaliate and he raises his eyebrows and laughs.
"Wow I like the witty ones. Well, Wyatt, I'm Ashton. The love of your life." I smile as he finishes his sentence, hearing the words aloud makes everything feel so much more real. He reaches into the front pocket of his jeans, black like they were the day before. He pulls out a folded piece of paper and twirls it around in his hand.
He grabs my wrist with his free hand and rotates my arm so my palm is facing upwards. He places the paper in my hand and smiles, folding my fingers over the paper so I don't loose it. He twists my arm back around and leans down, kissing my knuckles.
"Be in touch princess." He says. He kisses my hand one more time before turning and leaving. I sit back down at the table where Michael is still seated, watching me with an excited expression. I keep my eyes focused down in the table while I try and control my breathing, which has become labored since Ashton left.
I finally look up from the table and at Michael, bursting out in laughter.
"OH MY GOD" I yell in between breaths.
"What?" He asks with a confused look on his face.
"Your hair looks ridiculous."

"Michael that kid." My mom says shaking her head while laughing. "Was there a reason you decided to add that prat to the end of your story?" She asks and I shrug."Thought it could use a bit of comic relief." I say and she laughs again.
"So what's the problem Wy?" She asks and I sigh.
"Easton is the problem. Like I think I knew from the very beginning that he wasn't going to be the one that I ended up with but now that that happened so suddenly I don't want our relationship to just be over. I tell him everything." I say and sigh. My mom sighs as well and moves over to my side of the table and pulls me into a side hug.
"It will be okay. I'm sure Easton will understand. He's a smart boy." She says kissing my forehead.
"I'll tell him tonight. He was supposed to come over." I say and she nods. I sniffle, wiping the tears off my cheeks before straightening out my body and looking around the house.
"Where's Dad by the way?" I ask. She turns and glances at the clock on the microwave, before turning back to me.
"He had a quick meeting he had to attend. He said he would be back around 2 if you want to stick around until then." She says, standing up.
"Yes of course I want to stay." I say and she rolls her eyes.
"Once a daddy's girl always a daddy's girl." She says and I smile.
I help her prepare the pizza they are eating for dinner tonight. While I wait, I occasionally sprinkle flour in her hair with out her noticing. About an hour later I can hear the garage door opening, meaning my dad is home.
"Daddy!" I yell and jump into my dad's arms as he walks through the door, briefcase in hand, clad in a business suit.
"Hi princess! I didn't know you were dropping by." He says and kisses me on the forehead.
"It wasn't a planned thing. I just had to tell mom something." I say with a shrug. He walks over to where she is standing rolling out the crust and gives her a quick kiss on the lips. "You have flour in your hair dear." He whispers loud enough for me to hear, and I laugh as she glares at me.
"This thing was?" He inquires. I look at my mom and she nods indicating for me to tell him.
"Well there's kind of this guy..." I dove into the same story I told my mother earlier about how I first saw him at the hair salon, and then again the next day and how I can see everything now.
"He said my eyes were blue. Are they?" I ask them both and they smile.
"Yes they are. A very pretty shade of blue as well." My dad says and he smiles.
"He gave me his number, said to call him." I say and look down at my phone, where I have already programmed his number.
"He better not hurt you or I'll-"
"Mark." My mom cuts him off with a stern look and he sighs.
"I just want you to have the best honey." He says looking at me.
"I know." I answer with a nod. He smiles at me again before speaking.
"Have you told Easton yet?" He asks and I shake my head no.
"I was going to tell him tonight." I say and he nods.
"He'll understand. Everyone wants what you have." I nod but can't help the feeling that something might go wrong.
"Yeah I'm sure you're right. But uh I should probably get going." I say and both of my parents nod. We all stand up and exchange hugs and kisses before I grab my keys and walk out the door.
I start my car and plug my phone into the auxiliary cord before sending Easton a text.
My house tonight? We need to talk.
