I awoke to my alarm ringing, and a slight ache in my head. I quickly got changed and went downstairs to the kitchen. Mom was down there waiting for me.“Oh baby, are you okay?” babied my mother, trying to hug me.“I’m fine, really,” I greeted, trying to brush her off.“This will never happen again. No one hurts my baby girl. Bert and I are getting a divorce,” declared Erika. About time. Mom continued speaking, “His Company bailed him out this morning, and he’s being transferred. He’ll be by later today to get his stuff. So after school today, I want you to go to Daniel’s, Cindy says that fine. I’ll be working late today. I’ll let you know when it’s safe to come home.”“Okay,” I mumbled, I was still having a hard time thinking straight, mom just gave me the best news ever. Bert and mom are divorcing. I really hope I am not dreaming.“No ideas, I really like Daniel, but Amy will be there to keep an eye on you two,” mentioned Erika.“What?” I asked, confused. I was smiling because of the

“Catherine, what is—” Daniel started, not finishing because the doors to the house opened and Amy and Bobby stood there.“Woahoohoo, what’s going on out here?” joked Bobby. We climbed out of the pool.“What happened?” asked Amy.“We took a dip,” answered Daniel, as I was desperately trying to wring out my shirt, without having to take it off.“In all your clothes?” questioned Amy.“Yeah sure, why not?” Daniel shrugged his shoulders.“You know, I’ve been ringing your doorbell for the past five minutes and you didn’t answer,” accused Bobby. “Amy had to let me in.”“Sorry, back here you can’t hear much,” apologized Daniel.“Uh-huh, I’m sure you guys were doing other things too,” grinned Bobby. “So, how did you end up in the pool? Wait, I know, you were madly kissing, lost control, and fell into the pool.”“No, Daniel tried pushing me in, he ended up falling in instead, then pretended to have cramps and drown. I swam in after him, it was all a trick. Now I am soaked, and have nothing dry

Throughout the day I was called down to the principal’s office, I just told the teacher I would go once the bell rang, since it was nearly the end of class. Then he got smart and started calling me in the middle of class. I ended up leaving class and chilling in the bathroom, after a while he stopped calling. At least I would not have to see him until the weekend was over.On my way out of the school Daniel caught up to me and asked if I wanted a ride home, I declined and took the bus home, even though I really did want to go with him, I just wasn’t ready to be in close quarters with him after the incident this morning.When I got home, I let myself in the house and went up to my room. I looked at the bag in my hand, the one Nancy gave me. I threw it to the side of my bed. There was no way I was going to wear what she got me. I went to one of my boxes to find an outfit. As I was scavenging through the box thinking that I could probably unpack now, since we’re staying, I glance over at

The party was in full swing for the first hour or so. Daniel greeted and talked to his friends. I wondered around seeing the crazy outfits some of the girls wore. Also, a lot of them kept eyeing up Daniel and giggling around him. It made me sick to my stomach. Or could that be jealousy sinking in? Nah. Their swimming suits were interesting too, they barely had anything on, just enough to cover the essentials. I pretty much stayed away from the pool.How could he think I would want to swim with girls like that? I thought, then a little voice in my head said, ‘He didn’t, he wanted to swim with you before they came. Why else ask you to come early?’ I ignored the voice… a bit.I walked into the house with the music going and everyone was dancing around, which was not any better than the pool. People were grinding one another, I was amazed Daniel’s mother allowed this, but maybe she had no idea.Someone grabbed my ass, I whirled around quickly. The boy was smiling at me suggestively. He ha
