(Carter's POV)

"Carter!" I heard someone call my name from down the hallway. I turned around to see Meghan Hillards. She's a classmate of mine and the only other person that I've met who has red hair like me.

"Oh hey. What's up?" I said as she approached me

"So umm, prom is next month and I don't have a date yet. I was wondering if you would want to go with me."

I honestly wasn't thinking about going. The only person I wanted to go with is Leah but we aren't together anymore. Have I given up? No but do I put my life on hold? I mean it's senior prom. Maybe I should go alone.

"Well, umm i-is it okay if I get back to you on that?"

"Sure. Just let me know." She gave me a half smile and walked away. As she walked away I saw Leah standing by her locker looking at me. She quickly looked away but it was too late. I already saw her

Later on at lunch I was sitting with Jeffrey and a his cousin Devon.

"I asked Raven Peterson to prom and she said yes. It's safe to say I'm taking her virginity." Devon said high fiving Jeffrey

"That's what I'm talking about. I've taught you well young grasshopper." Jeffrey said laughing

"You two are disgusting. That's really all you think about." I said

"Don't act like you weren't blowing Leah's back out every chance you got." Jeffrey said pointing a French fry at me

"She was my girlfriend. Meanwhile, you're in a relationship with Tessa and stilling fucking other girls and Devon is just fucking anything with a vagina."

"We can't all be as noble and well behaved as you. Besides, I saw you talking to the only other redhead on earth earlier. What was that about?" Devon asked

"Nothing."

"I've known you since we were eight. You're lying bro. Spill."

"She asked me to prom. I said I'll get back to her."

"You're crazy. Listen, forget Leah. You've been with her forever. Maybe it's time for something new. I say take Meghan to prom and have fun. You don't have to fuck her and I'm only saying that because Carter the Caring won't anyway." Jeffrey said grabbing my shoulder

"Get off me." I said snatching away from him. "I'm not taking advice from either one of you."

"Come on. Senior prom is supposed to be the best night of high school. Just take Meghan and work on getting Leah back after." Devon said

"I guess you have a point. I'll still have to think about it."

"Ugh!" Both Devon and Jeffrey said as they got up and left the table

After school I went to work and then straight home. I was tired and my mind was everywhere

"What's on your mind, Curly? You haven't said anything since you came in and you barely touched dinner." My mama asked coming into my room

"Nothing, I'm fine."

"Come on Carter. I know we don't have the same relationship that you and Val have but you can still talk to me. I'm your parent too."

She has a sad look on her face. I swear I never mean to make her feel like I don't trust her or if I love mom more than her. I love her just as much as mom. It's just, she doesn't relate to me  most times and I feel more comfortable talking to my mom in certain situations.

"Mama please don't feel like I don't love you or I don't trust you. Mom is just easier to talk to."

"I'm sorry if I make it hard to talk to me and I don't feel that way because neither of the twins talk to Val like they talk to me and Ava is the same way you are with Val. It's fine, but I just want to make sure you're okay."
