Happy Anniversary

“Heads up!” was all I heard before I felt something slam into the back of my head, knocking me to the ground. Why did I bother coming today of all days? I could have stayed in my comfy bed. Oh, how beautiful the thought of you is you amazing, wonderful bed… But no, I chose to go to school and go to cheer practice. Where did that get me? Oh yeah, sprawled across the astroturf after a freaking football nailed me.“Holy crap! Jamie, are you okay?” Callie, yells from somewhere above me.“Ugh… Fine.” I blinked. She extended her hand toward me, and I took it, pulling myself up to my feet. Great, I just washed this uniform last night. With both hands, I quickly brushed off my uniform and pulled it back into place.“Collin! Watch it! You could have killed her,” Callie snapped at the quarterback as he stepped up to retrieve the ball. I see it now: Jamie Summers, death by football to the head. What a way to die.“I said heads up,” Collin shrugged, tossing the death ball to another team member.

Maybe I Need Therapy

Back at the apartment, Sam and I had dinner, and then I went to my room to shower and get ready for bed. It was only eight, but I’ve been enjoying my routine of watching a movie before bed. So, I crawled into my big fluffy comforter, flipped the TV on, and browsed the movie selection. Gojo stared at me with those big, crisscrossed eyes of his through his bowl.“Hungry?” I asked leaning over to grab his jar of floating fish food. He kept swimming at the side of the bowl until I dropped a pinch into his tank. I watched as he swallowed them whole. Within seconds he was back at the side of the glass begging for more.“Gojo, you eat too much.” I plopped three more pellets into his bowl. Unfazed by my comment, Gojo kept nipping away at the floating sticks at the surface of his tank. After finishing these last three off, he returned to the tank’s side again. I put my finger against the glass in front of him and moved my finger across the surface. Gojo followed my finger around in a complete

I See Dead People

The next day of school went by quickly and peacefully. There wasn’t any sign of a new kid that Callie or I knew of. By the end of the day, I ruled it out as paranoia. I met Callie in the gym, and we went over a few cheers with the rest of the girls. After, Callie and I decided to go for a walk around the field track.“Have you heard of any new kid?” Callie asked as we left the gym.“Nope. Nada,” I sighed. “I’m beginning to rule it out as paranoia.”“Or, it could be that he skipped today,” Cal replied matter-of-factly, “In stalker code, one-o-one you are not supposed to get caught, aka not a good stalker. Maybe he is too embarrassed because he sucks.”“Something tells me I don’t think that’s it,” I laughed.“Miss Cannon?” We turned to see Mrs. Galvez walking out toward us, “Miss Cannon can I speak with you in my office please?” I turned to Callie, and she shrugged at me, meaning she also had no idea why she was being called to talk with a teacher.“I’ll be back,” Cal called over her sh

Lets Party

Back in my room at the apartment, I put on a nice blouse and a blue jean mini skirt. I left my hair wet and wrapped my robe around me. Then I packed a small bag with my brush, hair product, and makeup and stuffed it in my nightstand drawer by the window. When I was finally ready with all the details, I went out into the living room and sat down with Sam for a few minutes while he drank his beer and watched more criminal shows.“Going to bed?” Sam asked when a commercial came on and I stood up.“Yeah, there’s nothing else to do since you won’t let me go to that party.” I crossed my arms and pretended to be upset about it.“I’m just looking out for you Jay,” Sam sighed. “I know I’m not Thomas, and I won’t ever replace him. But I am trying here, Jay, I really am.” I couldn’t be mad at Sam. He was just like a father to me, maybe even more of a father than my real one was. He was at all of my recitals when I was growing up. He helped my mom with all of my decorations and birthday parties.

Strangers Can Be Dangerously Fun

“Morning, Sleeping Beauty!” Callie jumped into bed with me. “My mom is allowing us to be grounded together here at your house, isn’t that the most awesome punishment ever?”“Go away,” I groaned, pulling the comforter over my head.“It’s almost ten, Jay,” Callie whined. “Are you going to sleep the entire Saturday away?”“What are you?” I mumbled into my pillow as she snatched my blankets away. “You’re not human, humans need more than three hours of sleep.”“I’ve had eight,” she cheered. “Not my fault if someone doesn’t care about her beauty rest enough to go to bed when she gets home.”“Go away for like, a few more hours,” I groaned again. She grabbed my legs and started pulling me off the bed. I quickly grabbed the bottom of the headboard and held on for dear life.“I’ve made eggs Benedict!” She announced throwing my leg aside exasperatedly. “I slaved in the kitchen for you this morning for what? For you to not eat it? I don’t think so. If you do not get your butt out of this bed in f

Boy's Are Normally Hot

Hunter wasn’t in any more of my classes. After fourth period, I went to lunch and met up with Callie in the lunch line to debrief her on the whole Hunter situation.“I like him.” she declared. “He’s foreign and spunky.”“You haven’t even talked to him yet,” I muttered back, taking a seat at the closest lunch table.“I’m a great judge of character, Jay. Trust me,” she winked. The rest of the cheer squad started taking seats around us, gossiping about who knew what and I couldn’t care less until I heard Mia say Hunter’s name.“That new kid Hunter Masters is in P.E. with me,” Mia informed the table. “I think he may try out for the football team. That means I may have a chance with him.” My stomach tightened.“What makes you think he will choose you?” Natalie growled back. “You’re scrawny and pale.” Mia hesitated until Kara came to her rescue.“And you think he will choose you?” Kara replied, “Any intelligent man would know better than to get tangled up with you. He might catc

Ride Home

After school, we didn’t have practice since there were no practices held on Mondays. I took my usual hike to the cemetery. Lately, I have felt less and less of a pull towards it. But today I felt it. I pushed through the gates of Shadow creek Cemetery and crunched through the leaves to the bridge that leads to my family's resting place.“Jamie?” I was stopped before I made it completely across the bridge.“Hunter?” I eyed him, “Are you following me again?”“I’m not actually.” He looked uncomfortable, “I was visiting someone and when I looked up, I saw you.”“Oh…” I said, “Who are you visiting if I may ask?”“My mother.” He smiled sadly in my direction, “Today marks another year of not having her here. Kinda sappy, anyway why are you here?”“I’m visiting my family too.” I looked down at my feet, “I’m sorry about your mother. I lost mine a little over a year ago.”“Yours is fresher than mine then.” He walked onto the bridge and leaned on the opposite rail I was on, “Aiden got a tip that

Wanna Have a Sleepover?

We pulled up to Callie’s wide two-story house. It was surrounded by trees. The wooden house always seemed to be getting smaller and smaller every time I came back to it. Callie was waiting on the front porch swing and jumped up to meet us at the police car when Sam threw it in park.“Jamie!” Callie exclaimed, “It’s been so long!” “I know!” I fake cried as she wrapped her arms around me, “A whole three hours!” “Crazies.” Sam shook his head and popped the trunk for me to grab my bag out of it when Cal let go that is. “So will you be home when I get out of school?” I asked throwing my backpack over my shoulder, Callie reached around and grabbed my duffle bag.“I should be. Fingers crossed that nothing would come up.” Sam put an arm around me and gave me a half hug as we all walked to the door.“Sam!” Mrs. Cannon answered as the door swung open, “It’s been so long since I have seen you! How have you been?”“I’ve been great, Candice. Thank you for letting Jamie stay over.”“Oh nonsense,

I Know He is Innocent

The next day Sam dropped us off at school since Callie’s car was still at her house. My ribs were so sore from being punched the night before, leaning forward so much I felt like the hunchback of Notre Dame. Callie looked hungover. Together we looked like a hot mess. We went straight to first period instead of stopping at our lockers.“I feel like I got hit by a bus,” I muttered laying my head down on my desk.“I feel like I was in a paranormal activity movie.” She muttered back.“Hey ladies,” Hunter greeted us, “What party did I miss out on last night?”“One we would gladly have missed if we could,” I replied not taking my head off the desk.“What happened?” Hunter’s tone turned serious.“What does it matter?” I spoke. It was not like he could do anything about it anyway.“It matters.” He said seriously. I looked around, not wanting all the glares being thrown in my direction from Hunter leaning over my desk.“Callie’s house got broken into last night with us in it,” I replied.“What

Don't Play with Fire

When we got back to the apartment Callie’s mother was already there waiting outside with Leah. We got out of the car and silently followed Sam into the apartment with Mrs. Cannon and Leah trailing us. We stood in the living room staring awkwardly at each other until Leah finally blurted, “Are you going to tell us what happened out there or are we just going to stand here all night?” What was I going to tell them? Did I tell them about Hunter? Hunter was a Delazar, Sam made it pretty obvious he did not like Delazar’s very much.“We skipped school.” Callie shrugged, trying to keep her tone even.“And did what exactly?” Leah glared, folding her arms across her chest.“We had girl time and lost track of time,” Callie replied evenly. She would not tell them what was going on, I guess that was fair, they weren’t telling her anything either.“Liar.” Leah growled, “Stop wasting our time.”“Why are you even here?” I finally said.“I wanted to know what the two of you were up to, just like ever
