"you know what you should do to see who secret lover is?" Alix asks

" you should put like a security camera by your doorstep or somewhere you could see who the person in case he comes back to drop off another gift" she explains her idea

"alix for once your brain was used for good" I joke around, she fakes a laugh

"shut the fuck up," she says offended

"I'm just kidding babe," I tell her before I get my laptop out to check on amazon a security camera to buy I'm sure my parents wouldn't mind, I mean after all I keeping this house safe. I found a camera that cost 17 dollars, well let's buy it know and since it was prime I would get it by tomorrow life is good.

one step closer to finding out who this sweet guy is

-Next day-

After school today I rushed home to check if my box was here already, and to my surprise when I got home there was a box on my doorstep, I grab the box and enter and walk in to find my mom on the couch watching t.v

"hey mom" I greet her nervously since she doesn't know about the security camera

"what you got their anna?" she asks

"Linda listen you know there are a lot of burglaries going on" I try to make up a reason to the purchase of the camera "so I bought a security camera," I tell her giving her the most guilty smile ever

"You what? how much money did you waste on this camera?" she says standing up as I back up a little, Hispanic moms are scary when they're mad

"just 17 dollars," I tell her

"oh ok," she says sitting back down and nods before she turns back to the t.v I don't even question it and head to my room, that was a close one.

I take everything out of the box and read the instructions I usually don't read them but I would like to install it properly. I then take the everything and take it outside so I can install it already, I grab a small ladder from the backyard and set in the on the angle from a corner that will have a better view on the front door, afterward I rush to my room to check if I can see it from my laptop, I stood up dancing seeing it worked perfectly

Matt's pov

I'm out of gift ideas I don't want to give her any more teddy bears because that's kind of clique but theirs is one thing I could do even the gift that I'm thinking is expensive but she's worth it and I want nothing more that her to forgive me for my stupid action. I want to buy her Maison des fleurs flowers in blue since it's her favorite colors, hoping this will show her that I committed to winning her back even he doesn't know it's me sending her the gifts yet.
