On my Own

Chapter 2

I woke up to the loud buzz of my alarm clock. 

"Oh shit" I muttered.  I had forgotten Mason was picking me up. I quickly I put on the dress and belt I and gotten and some sandals. My hair went into a pony tale. I went down the stairs skipping every other step. I turned on the tv and got some cereal. 

My mother walked in to the room and sat down next to me.

"I did not think you would be home" I said. My mother is a bartender and is never home.

" I have the day off" My mom answered. Me and my mom do not have the best of relationship. After my dad died she stayed really distant. 

Mason walked into the house without knocking or ringing the door bell. He does that now because he knows its fine. 

" Hi Mrs.Harris nice to see you." Mason said. You could tell he was surprised to see her. He knew are situation well. 

" Nice to see you too Mason" My mom said back.  My mom did not like Mason for some odd reason. 

"Well we have to go" I said. I quickly got off the couch and grabbed Mason's hand. I knew I had to get rid of the awkwardness. 

We both got in the car. I tured in the radio.

"Wazzup this is Dj quick mix" said the man on the radio. 

" God, I hate this guy" I said. I quickly changed the station. Somebody I used to know came through the speakers. 

"Oh this is my jam" Mason yelled. He began dancing awkwardly. 

"Oh my God your so embaressing! But, that's what I love about you." I said happily.

"Now your just somebody I used to know" Mason belted badly. 

We pulled into the park. The grass had spots of brown and a homeless man leaned against a tree. 

"I love it here" I said sniffing the air. 

"I love it here" Mason said as he sniffed the air. He liked to copy me.

We walked for a little. There was a man sitting on a park bench strumming his guitar to I'm yours. Mason and I have this  deal that if one of us dares the other to do something they must do it.

"I dare you to go sing" Mason said happily.

"Mason come on"  I said.

"Go" Said Mason.

" Well you done done me and you bet I felt it. I tryed to stay cool but your so hot that I melted. I fell right through the cracks now I'm trying to get back. Before the cool down run out I be given it my bestest. Nothings gonna stop me ,but the drive intervention. I reckon its again my turn to win some or learn some." I sang. I actually liked it. I sang the whole song.

I ran to Mason. He picked me up and spun me around. 

"That was great" Mason practically yelled. 

" Nooo....."  I said humbley. The guitar guy started to clap.

" You Have talent kid!" The man said. 

"Thanks" I said softly. On the inside I was screaming with joy. I really enjoy singing actually. But I knew I could never sing in front of people. I can barely sing in front of Mason ,and he was my boy friend of three years. 

Mason and I  walked the park for awhile. 

"You know your really good." Mason said. 

" Can we not talk about it?" I asked.

"I guess ,but I want you know that your amazing!" Mason said. 

"You know your the greatest boyfriend ever." I said while smiling at him.

" Of couse I know that" Mason said slyly.

Mason dropped me off at my house, he had to go to practice.

I walked inside and yelled,

" Hi mom" as I walked up the stairs. I threw on blue sweats and a big cozy shirt that I took from Mason's closet.
