On Monday afternoon when I got home from school, I was greeted by Sarah in the living room."Did you remind Tyler that he's coming over for dinner today?" Sarah asked me."Yes." I replied as I turned and walked upstairs to my room. When I got upstairs, I quickly get all my homework done.When I was finished, I took a quick shower to get ready for dinner. Today was the day I was dreading because Tyler was coming over for dinner. I was really hoping for my father to forget, but that hope went down the drain when he told me this morning that I should invite Tyler over for dinner today.At about six o' clock, I was dressed and ready for dinner. Tyler was right on time as well as I heard the doorbell sounded downstairs. Sarah was in the kitchen getting dinner finished and Dad was in his room, so I walk downstairs quickly to get the door.When I opened the door, Tyler was leaning on the doorframe on the other side. "Hey, come on in." I said. Tyler stepped inside the house and I closed the d

After ringing the doorbell at Tyler's for the third time, I turned around to go back home when I saw Tyler's car turning into the driveway. I stood watching as he parked his car and he and Seth got out.I crossed my arms as he walked over to where I was. "Have you forgotten that we have an assignment to do?" I asked. "It looks like you too were busy on a night out on the town."Tyler chuckled. "I didn't forget. That is why I am here so we can get this assignment over with." He winked at me. "And it looks like I'm right on time too." Seth walked up to us sporting a teasing grin directed towards me. "Hey Emily. Coming over to see Tyler? Don't worry, I won't disturb your date night. I'm just going to crash here for the night." He wriggled his eyebrows suggestively. "You're free to do anything you want, just pretend like I'm not here."I shoved him. "Cut it out. I'm only here to do an assignment with Tyler." Seth chuckled and tutted. "Don't use assignment as an excuse.""Shut up. Why ar

Shocked at Tyler's revelation, I turned around completely to face him. "What do you mean?" I asked tentatively afraid to broach the topic.Tyler took a deep sigh before he sat on the porch steps. I walk over to where he was and sat beside him. "I didn't want to talk about her because I wanted to leave her in the past."I sat quietly beside him, waiting for him to continue. It took a few seconds, but he did. "Two years ago, I met Andrea. She did not go to our school. I met her at one of my parents' family dinners. Her family was a close friend of ours." He paused for a while before he continued. "We started dating a week after we met. Andrea was perfect and everything was going great. Everyone liked us together as a couple.""So, what happened?" I asked quietly."I don't know. She just ended it. Six months into our relationship, she just came to me one day and said that she has found someone else. She did not give me much details; she just left. A few days later, I saw her and her new

"Where are we going?" I asked Tyler for the umpteenth time.It was a week later, Friday and ever since we left school, Tyler has been driving me to an unknown destination. He didn't even tell me anything, but instead of turning in the direction of home, he took a different road. When I had asked him where we were going, he just told me that we are going somewhere, but he refused to share the location with me."You'll soon find out." Was his response now."I don't understand why I have to go with you." I replied."Because, it will be great." He said as if that answered my question.I crossed my arms over my chest and stared in front of me. "Well why you won't tell me? You're such a meanie."Tyler took a quick look in my direction and then chuckled. "I know."After driving in silence with me watching the surroundings to our destination, the car finally pulled to a stop. I also noted that it took us thirty minutes to get here. I craned my neck to look out the window of the parked car.

Emily's POVI groaned inwardly as I tried to get my locker to open. I've been here for the past five minutes fighting the lock but it seems to be jammed.The school really needs to do something about these old lockers.I decided to rattle the lock, but it still didn't budge. After I rest my knee in the locker and used my fist to pound it, I finally got it to open. However, as soon as it opened, a few of my books fall out to the ground.Sighing heavily, I stooped down to gather my fallen books."Tell me, what did your locker do to you?" I heard a voice say. I looked up to see Tyler standing in front of me with a teasing grin on his face. I was so caught up with gathering my books that were scattered all over the floor that I didn't noticed when he walked up."It seems to not like me for some reason." I answered before continuing to get my books. Tyler chuckled lightly then helped me to pick them up. When we were both standing up again, I took my mathematics writing book as well as my t
