"Okay before you go, I'm going to give you your phone just in case." My mum said handing me my prize possessions.
"Why would you do that?" I asked hesitantly taking the phone from her hand. "I know your father told me not too, but it's just in case you'll be late but you still have to do the dishes."
"Okay, Kenna's here I'll see you later." I waved heading to Kenna's car putting my bag by my feet once I was seated.
"How come your at your mums?" "My dad went away on a business trip so I had to stay at hers, but hopefully there's no drama." I said. Today I wasn't really feeling it, I just felt like crap it was a feeling that I felt from time to time and it seems like today is going to be one of those days.
And it was even worse knowing I wouldn't be going home to see my dad, all I wanted right now was to hug him and watch how I met your mother on repeat. "Hey, are you alright?" "Yeah, I'm just missing my dad." I sighed.
I still felt bad about last Monday how I came back late, but I was upset that my dad wouldn't be making it to my 18th birthday.
"He'll be back before you know it." She smiled at me.
The moment I got to my first class all I wanted to do was slam my head against the table and I did just that.
"What's up your butt?" Conner asks. "I just don't want to be here." I sighed, I just wanted to go home and have a nice cup of milo or the whole tin ether way I'll be doing that when I get back to mums.
"Just leave her be." Kenna said putting her work books on the table.
I was greatfull to have a friend like that, one that knows not to provoke my bad mood and to tell others off when annoying or being rude to me.
Science was long and boring although I didn't do any work, I just sat there with my head on the desk feeling sorry for myself.
I wasn't excited for English just because I knew Noah would be there to taunt me. And to my prediction I was right, he was sitting in the same spot as last. While Keenan sat a seat away, I'll be squashed between them again. Great. "Well hello." I rolled my eyes as his followed me till I sat in my chair.
"Why so glum chum?" "Piss off Noah, I'm not up for your crap today." I rest my head on my arm facing away from him looking at my favourite human.
"What's wrong?" He pushed some hair behind my ear. "Just an off day." I sighed.
"Well, how do you feel about coming over to mine after school?" He leaned his head in his arm so we could be eye level.
"Yes please, but I have to let my mum know."
Most of the day was spent doing nothing and moping around, but Keenan tried to make my day better by making me smile and laugh.
As of now I'm cuddling Keenan in his bed since my mum said that I could go to his for a while.
"I was thinking, how do you feel about going out this Friday?" He asked as his arms hugged my waist. "The day before my birthday?"
"Yeah, I want to take you on a date and maybe give you an early birthday present."
I smiled caressing his cheek, "I'd love that."
I kissed the corner of his mouth. He rolled his eyes. "Come back here and give me a proper kiss." He grabbed my face with his hands bringing his lips to mine. I smiled gripping his jumper leaning more into the kiss. "You always make me feel better." I ran my hand through his wavey black hair.
"I wish I could stay in this moment forever." I sighed.
"Now why would you want that, I think we will have many more moments like this and they'll all be perfect."
"You always know what to say."

I threw my bag on the bedroom floor then threw myself on Megan's bed smiling. I can't help but think Keenan is the most perfect human out there.
He knows all the right things to say, and also a great kisser. And the most beautiful human ever.
"Guess who!" I squealed jumping up and hugged the life out of her.
"You came back early, where have you been?" Megan sat on the bed with me sitting next to her.
"I was at my grandparents house, I just needed space to think."
"I'm glad your back." "Dad sent me up to get you, dinner is ready."
Sitting at the dinner table was awkward, I still wasn't fully okay with being around my mother but she was starting to appreciate me more. It's a bit late but it's a start, but I definitely didn't get along with my step farther John, he was a down right ass.
"Would it be okay if I went out Friday night?" I asked directly looking at my mum.
"I don't see why not." She answered. "Where are you going?" John asked.
"Keenan wanted to take me out as an early birthday present." "Ohhh, the ship is sailing!" Megan laughed. "I don't see why not." Mum said.
"No, I don't think you should go."
"What? Why not? Mum already said yes!" I put my knife and fork down glaring at him.
"Because I don't want you out with that boy." I scoffed.
"Are you serious right now?" "Deadly."
"For starters I'm going, and second you are not my farther and you do not control my decisions." I push my chair back and left the table. I went to the spare room since Megan was back and she would probably want her room to herself.
I just felt so frustrated, all I wanted to do was see my dad but no he was away and all I could do was walk back and forth in the spare room.
I grabbed my phone as the ring tone went off. "Hello?" "Thank god! I'm so glad you answered."
"Is something wrong?" "No, quite the opposite actually." I rolled my eyes.
"Well come on! Spill the beans." "Blake kissed me." My eyes widened.
"No way! How'd it happen?" "Well I was just talking Well more like nervous rambling, then he kisses me and says I talk to much!"
"Well damn, we didn't even have to use Conner." I laughed.
"Alright well I better go he's waiting down stairs." "You called me straight after didn't you?" "Yes, okay beyyyyy."
I shook my head laughing, Kenna sure can be a cracker.
The bedroom door creeks open as Megan pops her head through the door. "Are you alright?" She asks coming in siting beside me on the bed.
"Yeah, your dad just really frustrates me." "You and me both."
We sat on the bed for a while just chatting about school so I could catch her up on all the things she missed. Soon it became later and we both decided it would be best to go to sleep.
But I had a feeling I wouldn't get much sleep, I had to much on my mind.
Especially for Friday night.
