even dating but maybe he’s just protective because we are friends.
    “ No, I don’t want to see him at all. I had an incident in the hallway today with him and he really creeped me out. It’s nothing really though.”
     
    I didn’t want to get too far into it because I can see the reaction on his face and I don’t want him to act out impulsively on my behalf.
    “ I’ll come to the party, too, that way if he is there, maybe he’ll steer clear of you if he sees me.”
     
    I like when he becomes a gentleman like that. He puts my needs and securities before his own.
     
    “ Okay, as long as both of you are there, I will go. I don’t really want to associate with anyone else.”
    “ I may be a little late though. I have to help my dad with something. But I promise you I will be there,” he said just as the bell rang.
     
    We gathered our things and went our separate ways to finish up our day.
     
     
    When I got home from school, I went upstairs to do my homework. I heard my phone go off. I have a new text message.
     
    Aiden: I’m sorry to pry but I need to know what happened with Jeremy. I need to know that you’re alright. Please put my mind at ease and tell me.
     
    Me: He slapped my ass. I told him that I would tell the school board if it happens again and tell them that he’s harassing me.
     
    Aiden: Did he say anything else?
     
    As much as I hate lying, I don’t think I should tell him the things he said. I still don’t fully know Aiden and I don’t want him to fly off the handle and really get himself in trouble. I don’t need that on my conscience.
     
    Me: No, I think I really got to him.
    I feel like smacking my head. Why did I just do that? I don’t lie. I hope this doesn’t backfire.
     
    Aiden: Okay. As long as you’re okay. I don’t trust that guy and I don’t think you should either.
    Me: I don’t. I try to stay away from him. He creeps me out. Well I’m off to the dreamland. Goodnight
     
    Aiden: Goodnight, I’ll see you in the morning. :)
     
    He always puts a smiley face at the end of the sentence. It always makes me feel happy. His smiles are infectious. I lie in bed unable to sleep. I can’t stop thinking about this damn party that I do not want to attend. I’ll do it for my friends but I will not have a good time. I hope Jeremy doesn’t show but that’s a hopeful wish that will not come true since he’s the quarterback of the team. Thoughts of my sister are filling my head. I wonder what she’s doing and what’s happened and where she’s at. She still hasn’t come around. I miss her but I’m also pissed at her for deserting me. It’s not long when my brain gets so exhausted that I fall into a deep sleep.

    Aiden
     
    I woke up drenched in sweat because of a dream I had. It involved Serena and Jeremy. He tried to fight me because I wouldn’t let him touch her. He tried groping her right in front me. I know this is my subconscious telling me that I need to do something about this. I wish I would have talked to her about that in person. My gut is telling me there is more to what she relayed to me. I possibly could have spotted a lie if I saw the reaction to her face. If I would have waited, I may not have slept at all. I could be a walking zombie, but it drove me insane to think someone hurt her. She has become my best friend over the past few weeks. I have been noticing all the little things that she does and says that really make her stand out. They are the cutest things, too. For instance, she tried to bake cookies when me and Larissa came over to play video games. Well she ended up burning the cookies and setting off the fire alarm. She intentionally blamed the instructions on the recipe because it said to bake for twenty minutes. She failed to read bake at twenty minutes on 350 degrees. She decided she wanted to have the cookies done faster so she jacked the nozzle to 400 degrees and still baked for twenty minutes. I didn’t see a need to do that. If
