and let whoever it
is pass.
    The car, instead of passing, slows down
next to me and the window opens.
    "Elaina! Get in the car!" I hear
someone shout from inside it. I look through the window to see
Jayden at the wheel.
    I hesitate. The chilly breeze makes me
shudder and I nod. Jumping into the passenger seat, I notice it's
only him in the car.
    I can't help but wonder if Layla
succeeded at seducing him. He makes the car go faster and I tell
him my directions.
    "I know where you live." He tells me as
I start telling him. My eyebrows scrunch together in
confusion.
    "You do? How?" How in the hell did he get my address? He looks to me, opens and closes his mouth a few
times making him look like a fish, before shrugging.
    I'm still a little worried and confused
as to why one of the most popular guys in school, right below Rane,
knew my address- nonetheless taking me home! I hope he doesn't like
me romantically because I don't see him that way.
    First, he is soooo Layla's for she has
definitely called dibs on the guy. And let me tell you, no one
wants to get on Layla's bad side. Sweet and charming one day then
as venomous as a snake the next, ready to bite your effing head
off.
    Second, he's cute and all
but not my type. He has short blond hair and blue-ish green eyes. I
can see what Layla sees in him. He was very fit but... he's not Rane. A little
voice in my head says. Shut it!
    Pushing out the thoughts of what
happened last night until I was alone at my house; I focused on the
greenery flying by out my window. I just notice that we were now on
the road. I must have zoned out for a while.
    "Soo..." Jayden trails out. I turn to
look at him, one eyebrow raised in confusion. He glances to the
road and then to me and then back.
    "Yes?"
    "CanIhaveLayla'snumber?" He says all
out in a rush. A faint blush covers his cheeks and I giggle. I
heard exactly what he said. It was good to know that Layla's little
crush isn't one sided. I smile.
    "Yeah I'll give it to you." He lets out
a big breath of relief.
    "Thank god... She kind of
left in a hurry this morning." He has the same pained expression
Rane had when I left him. Weird. "I mean, maybe I didn't please her well enough.
Maybe I should have used the d-"
    "Okay!" I yell to get him to shut the
hell up. I loved Layla like a sister and I definitely didn't want
to hear about this from the guy she did it with. I would probably
hear the details from her anyway but getting it from the guy was...
weird.
    I almost think back to see
if I remember what happened to myself last night. Note the word
" almost ". I don't
want to think about those things while with someone. I might cry
from the fact I wasn't a virgin or do something equally
embarrassing.
    We pull into my driveway and I almost
jump out but remember to give him the number.
    I run up to my door as I hear his car
leave. Opening the door, I remember my mom. My eyes widen and I
bolt for the stairs.
    "ELLIE!" I hear a voice yell to me just
before I am attacked and flung to the ground. I groan with a seven
year old sitting on me. He may be seven, but damn was he
heavy.
    "Hey Shane. Now can you please get off
of me?" His little head bobs, dirty blond hair swinging across his
forehead. He jumps to his feet, holding a tiny hand out for me. I
smile and take it yet scream when his hand comes in contact with
mine.
    I jerk my hand back and grimace in
disgust at the sticky blue paint that was now my hand. He holds his
hand up to reveal a broken little packet that used to be full of
the blue substance. His blue-ish grey eyes twinkle in amusement. He
grins mischievously and winks.
    Oh it's on, buddy! I yell in my head before reaching my blue stained
hand to him. His eyes widen and he runs. I run after
him.
    Now we're on a full out mission to get
each other. I'm running with the blue junk on my hand, Shane
running not wanting to get stuff on himself while screeching like a
banshee.
    "MOMMA!" He screams and flings himself
into the woman that is now standing
