Would you like to stay the night with us?" "Aw that's really nice of you,but I couldn't take advantage of you like that." "Oh no its fine stay the night, besides it's late anyhow." "Ok thanks so much." "You're welcome Whitney." After I took a shower Michaela let me borrow some of her clothes to sleep in and some for school tomorrow. "Thanks, you don't know how much I appreciate this." "No prob, besides you would have done the same for me." "No doubt about it." I said and she laughed.
The next day
"Whit, you want us to take you to school?" "If you don't mind and if its no trouble." "It's no trouble at all." After they dropped me off at school, I went and got a powerade from one of the machines. Then I went to class. In first block I saw Lizzie. She looked mad. 'Great' I thought, 'if Lizzie is mad, Alex is gonna be totally peeved!' After class was over Lizzie grabbed my hand and dragged me over to where Alex and Luke was. "WHERE THE HECK HVE YOU BEEN?!" Alex yelled. "At a friends house." "Who?" "None f your business." "Whitney!" "I was at Michaela's house ok? No big deal." "Yes! It's a big deal! You didn't come home last night! We almost called the police! Mamaw and papaw were worried sick. As was I and Jamie." "Sorry." "What happened? One minute you're all happy and then the next you take off. That's not like you." "Ok you wanna know what happened? I went out to feed the animals and our mom comes and says that it's my fault that we were separated. That is was my fault that she got drunk. And you see this cut? She slapped me. So there you know. Now just leave me alone!" I said as I turned around and walked away. After I had a few minutes alone, the bell rung for 2nd block. When I got to class Mr. Porter asked me,"Where were you?" I looked at Alex and said,"I went to the bathroom, I wasn't feeling too well." And it wasn't a total lie. I really didn't feel that well. I went to take my seat and Mr. Porter said,"Um Whitney you will be sitting here behind um Alex." Even though I didn't want to sit behind my brother esp. after our fight, but I did as I was told. Then Mr. Porter told us to get out some paper so we could write some notes. In the middle of writing notes Alex passed me a piece of paper that said," I'm sorry, but you should have told me and I would have helped you." I wrote back saying," I know you would have and I'm sorry for acting like a jerk." "Ha it's fine I'm just glad you're safe." "Haha aww was my big brother scared to wose his whittle sis? :) " "Hahaha! No, I needed someone other than Jamie to keep me company." "Haha yea right!" "Haha yea you're never wrong." "See? You just admitted I was right." "Haha whatever!" "Haha." "Mr. And Ms. Wiley is that a note I assume you're passing?" "Um well you see Mr. Porter......" "Don't start! Either read it out loud or I will." Then Alex turned around at me and smiled, which made me laugh a little. "Well?" Mr. Porter said and the bell rung. I laughed out loud, grabbed my stuff and ran out the door to lunch. "Now that's was funny!" Alex said as he came up behind me. "Haha yea saved by the bell!" Then I remembered that I had my camera, so I got it out and took a picture of me and my brother. "Why did you take a picture of us?" "To send to grandma." "Oh yea, how is she?" "I don't know, I hadn't talk to her since I came." "That was what? 4 days ago." "Yea I know." "Well when we get home, call her." "Don't worry I will." "Oh um listen, our mom said she isn't leaving until she gets to see you." I stopped dead in my tracks. "But don't worry she isn't gonna hurt you again." "How do you know she won't?" "Cause I will make sure she doesn't." 'Wow' I thought, 'I never seen Alex this protective before.'
