Q\A quick interruption part four read the questions

We will be getting back to the story shortly.

Answer my question.

What are your favorite food.

what is your favorite color.

What is your favorite book to read.

Me: Ok, sorry for assuming I knew what you meant.

Me: What did you mean then?

Thomas: I just told you what I meant I was scared that I would mess up and I wouldn’t be

focused on school.

Me: You could have told me that, instead of putting us both through all this weird

awkwardness.

Thomas: Sorry, I thought you would think I was saying no.

Me: Well, that’s what it felt like.

Thomas: So, do you want to hang out sometime?

Oh my gosh, freaking Thomas Lawrencejust asked me if he wanted to hang out. I get my favorite

pillow and scream into it. Then I pick up my phone and text him back,

Me: Yeah, sure.

Thomas: What about today?

Oh my gosh he wants to hangout today!! Then I start thinking she won't ever let me. I ran into the

kitchen anyway and tried, but instead of saying his name I just said my best friend, Ella. She said

yes and I ran back to my room and screamed on my pillow again. I pick up my phone and text

him back,Me: Sure, what time?

Thomas: What about at 6?

Me: That works

Thomas: Good, see you in a little bit.

I go to my closet and open the door to see what I’m about to and as soon as I open the door, I

see all these expensive clothes, I find a note that says,

Hey, honey, I was trying to figure out how I wanted to surprise you with your phone, and I

was going to put it in your closet with a note and I saw all your clothes and shoes and

thought you could use some new ones. I also got you a set of hair supplies in the box in the

back corner of the closet. Hope you like your new phone, new clothes, shoes, and hair supplies.

Lovve, Mom

Chapter 2

Getting Ready

Of course I look through all the clothes. And let me tell you that they were super cute. I

came up on this cute leather crop top. I took it off the hanger and found some cute gray Nike

sweatpants to go with the crop top. I looked at all the new shoes my mom got me and picked out

a pair of Yezzi slides. I found a cute black and white scrunchie and looked through the hair

supplies. I found a curling iron and put it with all my stuff. I go to the bathroom and take a shower.

I get out, brush my teeth and do my hair. I go back to my bedroom and put on some VictoriaMe: You know the guy you like?

I text her back,

Me: Which one?

And you will not believe what she texted back to me,

Ella The one you were obsessed with... Thomas !

Me: You know you cannot joke with me like that, this is not funny.

Ella: I know she says, I am not trying to be funny, just listen to what I have to say. Elly was trying

to get with him, and she noticed that he did not seem like he was interested in him, and she asked

him if he had a girlfriend. He said no he likes someone else, and you know Elly would not let that

go so she asked who it was, and he said that it was you and told Elly to give his number to me to

give to you.

After she finished typing, she sent me his number. I sit there and stare at it freaking out. Ella

texted back and says,

Ella: Text him now!

So, I put his number in my phone, and I text Ella,

Me: What do I say?now reading this part in the book where Kaiden Rowe is about to make love to Anna. I close the

book and sit there for a second and start thinking of what it would be like for a guy to like me in

that type of way, or to like me at all. I am not pretty and skinny like all the other girls. I think back

to that one guy in third grade, his name was Lucas Walton. I liked him for as long as I can

remember. We were sitting on the carpet at school, and I was trying to keep myself from looking

at him. The teacher Mrs. Dudson was reading a book to us, I was rocking back and forth with my

backpack on, and he was behind me. About the third time rocking back and forth I fell and kissed

him. Or at least I thought I did. I was so happy, when it was time to get on the bus I could not

stop smiling. Fifth grade I wrote him a love note. I guess you could say I was in love with him, but

one day this guy named Brody Shela asked me, “How are you going to have kids? He is like ten

inches shorter than you. So, you tell me how that is going to work?” And I thought about it all day

and all night long, he was right, how would I ever have children? Yes, he would grow at some point,

but what about our relationship now? I came out of that daze and my mom was yelling for me to

get my baby brother Ty'rell. ‘’ Madelne, can you get Ty’rell for a second?’’ ‘’ Mom, I am coming.”

She does this all the time, during every school year, which is the only time I can get and read any

books. Except the ones in my room of course but have read those books at least one hundred

times. I keep him and play with him until his mother gets here, which is my sister. When she gets

here, I hand her Ty’rell and run to my room to read while I still can. When I get to my room, I

look all around and tell myself my room needs a very deep cleaning. I try to tidy up a little bit, but

it does not really help. My mom comes into my room and hands me the new iPhone fifteen. Mom,

if this is some type of joke it is not funny. These phones cost thousands and thousands of dollars.

“Oh, honey this is why we were being so hard on you.’’ We wanted to make sure you were ready,

but it has made you feel like you are not good enough. You are not even talking about school that

much anymore or any of your friends. Honey I am so sorry I did not see this sooner, please

forgive me and your father.’’ ‘’ Well, if this is not some kind of joke, thank you so much.’’ She hands

me the phone and walks away; I turn it on and just stare at it. Then I decided that it was her fault

she handed me this phone, so I am going to use this phone. I download snapchat, ticktock and

Instagram. I added all my friends and put the numbers they gave me on my phone. A notification

that someone snaps me pops up. I tap on the notification, and it opens snapchat. It is from my

best friend Ella, and it says,

Ella: You want to believe what I found out.

I text her back at once and say,

Me: What did you find out??

It takes her awhile to respond, and then she finally texts back,
