Questioning My Beloved

Prologue

"Whew, I am so glad to be home."

After a long, grueling, awful day at high school I finally plop down on the couch. I pick up my phone and can't help but to smile as I see what's on the screen.

Down for some ice cream at Chloe's Parlor tonight?
-Mason

My heart fluttering, I instantly reply.

Definitely.

Man, I love him so much. Could anyone ask for a better boyfriend?

"Daaaaaaaaaaad! I'm going out to ice cream with Mason tonight, is that okay?" I yell, as my father is in the other room.

"Of course."

Knowing my dad would say yes, I ask for permission anyway. It's just the right thing to do, you know? Sighing deeply, I lift my school bag and head to the dining room table. Then, I get out all my books and unfortunately, start my homework. If it weren't for Mason, I'd probably be procrastinating. No, not maybe. I would definitely be procrastinating.

Ding!

My phone receives a notification.
At least it gives me an excuse to stop this stupid essay, I think to myself.
I pick my phone up and open it. It's a message from my friend, William. He sends me my "daily comic stress reliever". It's a bit of a tongue twister, but that's what he calls it and it's what gets me through the day without breaking down. Well, and Mason, of course.

I can't stop a laugh from escaping my mouth. Will's messages kind of make my heart happy.

But I don't like him or anything, though. I have a boyfriend and I love him, right?
