Chapter 4 “Hide and Sneak.”

I went to the hospital gift shop and got a few ‘Get Well’ balloons and a card, I found Dylan’s room there he was looking bored out of his mind. I guess there is not much to do in the hospital, which the nurses won’t yell at you about. He smiled when he saw me I said, “I bring stuff.”
“You know those never last.” Dylan said, softly laughing looking at the balloons.
“Could of gotten flowers but those would be dead in a few days.”
I had told Rose if Adam asks where I am to tell I was applying for a job.
Was hoping things wouldn’t go there and if he asks where and if he goes there and I am not there he will be coming down the hallway in a all caps rage.
“So you seem a bit…I don’t know what are you thinking about?” Dylan asked sitting up.
“Just thinking.” I said, shrugging.
“Come on Allie.” Dylan said, softly.
“Thinking what I am going to wear to homecoming.”
“You are really going to that?”
“Rose is making me.”
Dylan smirked then said, “That is Rose for you.”
I wanted to tell Dylan but I couldn’t nothing would change the fact that I was dating a monster.
“Alice would you like to come to my aunt’s birthday party?” Dylan asked.
I hadn’t really talked or went over to one of his family member house since we were kids. They wouldn’t know who I was now.
“Wouldn’t be weird?”
Dylan looked at me confused, “No you aren’t my girlfriend. Just a long life friend.”
Only I could be his girlfriend.
I exhaled then said, “Yeah your right, should I wear something…girly?”
Dylan knew I hated being girly but he smirked, “I’m sure my family would be delighted to see. Alice the girl who punched a guy’s teeth out at a concert. In a dress.”
“You are so lucky you are crippled.” I said, smirking at him.

Dylan came from a rich family, but his aunt wasn’t to bad I put on a dark jacket with strips with skinny jeans, I looked in the mirror I wanted to change my hair color but I will another day.
I got out of the car and helped Dylan get out but I walked over to the small townhouse there was a bird bath and rose garden.
The house was plain, “Wait for me!”
Dylan had a cast on and crutches I laughed at him I knocked on the door, a woman about forty-seven with black hair green eyes and a flowing yellow dress on and high heels on.
The woman looked at him and smiled, “How are you sweetie, and Alice is that you?”
I nodded, the woman hugged me and said, “Wow you have grown into a fine young lady.”
She led us inside the house wasn’t to exciting simple boring.
“You two can hang out in the game room, the party is out back if you feel like seeing them Dylan.”
Only his aunt knew he didn’t like seeing his parents, Dylan led me to the game room.
We were laughing and playing for a while.
I wanted to kiss him so bad I exhaled and held back.
Dylan came over to me and placed his hand on my cheek his touch was so warm so comforting he slowly started to lean in.
“Dylan your father wants to see you.” His aunt said coming in.
Before his aunt saw us he pulled away so close.
Dylan went out to the backyard leaving me alone in the game room.
“Alice is that you?” Andrew asked coming in.
I looked at him then said, “Are you in my english class?”
“Yep.”
Andrew had on a dark red shirt and jeans on. I almost forgot about him then said, “What are you doing here?”
“I’m Dylan’s cousin.”
“Oh I didn’t know that, you guys don’t even look the same.”
Andrew shrugged then said, “Why are you dating Adam?”
“Long story.” I said, sighing.
“Andrew can you come here?” A voice called over to him, Andrew called back, “Yeah sure.”
Andrew smiled at me then left the game room.
