I sighed, tossing my phone aside. Surprisingly, so far, the hate wasn't as bad as I thought it'd be. I knew the main target would be my weight. I expected it. Yet it still hurts. These people that don't even know me are putting me down. All for what? So they can feel better about themselves? For shits and giggles? I never understood why people got off to bullying people. Isn't your job as a fan to support your idols and not try to control their lives? On the bright side I haven't gotten any death threats yet, as far as I know. Key word, "yet".

My phone ringing dragged me from my thoughts.

*Unknown Number*

"Hello?" I warily spoke into the phone.

"Meredith!" Someone shouted excitedly on the other end.

"Dad?" I asked and he chuckled. "How'd you get my number?"

"Your mother gave it to me."

Of course she did.

"What do you want?" I asked, my voice laced with annoyance. I didn't mean for it to be but I wasn't expecting to hear from him so early. We just talked 3 days ago.

And it was 9 in the morning and I was still half asleep.

"Uh, well," he began, and I imagined him rubbing the back of his neck awkwardly. "I just wanted to know how you're doing."

"I'm fine," I answered flatly. He sighed, probably rubbing his eyes.

"Have you thought about our talk?"

"Not really. I've been... busy."

Right on cue, a freshly showered Michael walked in my room. I was instantly reminded of the very first day we physically met; the smell of his body wash meandered its way into my room, and a towel hung low on his waist.

Except this time he had his hair wrapped up in a towel on the top of his head.

I burst out laughing, covering my mouth as Michael began strutting around and posing like a model.

"Meredith?" My dad said loudly.

"Yeah?"

"Did you hear what I said?"

"No, sorry. What happened?"

"Do you want to come over for dinner tonight?"

My focus on my weirdo boyfriend was halted by my dad's question.

Did I want to go over to his house for dinner?

What if his wife is there? What if she has kids?

I locked eyes with Michael and he gave me a lop sided sly grin as he dropped his towel and released himself to the world.

"Oh my God!" I shouted, turning away and covering my eyes. Why does he pick times like this to be so... exposed?

"Meredith? Are you okay?" My dad asked and all I wanted to do was hang up and hide.

"Yes!" I shouted, my voice cracking.

"You'll come?"

"Yes!"

"Cool, see you at 6!" and he hung up.

I tossed my phone on the ground and crawled into my bed and under the covers. Michael was naked in my room and I was having dinner with my dad tonight. Suddenly I got an idea.

"Michael?" I squeaked from under the blanket.

"Yes, my love?" He replied, making me blush and smile at the term of endearment. I peeked out to see that he now was dressed in a Skull Hammer shirt and some black basketball shorts.

"You up for something mildly, maybe completely insane?"

Ok this was a really short chapter but I swear the next one will make up for it just wait

Also those @'s are just names off the top of my head, but I'm sure there's probably people out there with those @'s so sorry if it's yours I promise I'm not trying to steal it or anything

I also just want to say that I've been getting a lot of comments lately about how (in the first few chapters) mae doesn't "freak out" enough upon meeting the boys or whatever. Just an fyi, and I know this may be hard to believe, but not everyone freaks out (i.e. "OMG HAVE MY BABIE S KSJFEOBFWSS I LOVE U WDFBOOWFSP MARRY MEFGOVF GIVE ME UR SPERM" etc etc) like that. I know for a fact that I'm not like that, I kind of just sit there smiling and giggling like a bimbo. So relax ok jeez  not everyone is the same

Fun fact the other day I was at the mall with my sister and I walked into a store and they were playing skh and I shit u not I gasped SO FUCKING LOUD and everyone gave me weird looks omg I was lowkey embarrassed what is this band doing to me

Don't be a silent reader u nipplett
