It's The Falling in Love

Chapter Two

I quickly ran up the stairs towards the phone.

I dialed Michael's number in quickly.

"Hello, Jackson residence." I heard Katherine answer.

I smile widely, "Hello, it's Mia. Is Michael there?" I asked.

"Oh, hello Mia! Yes he is, let me go get him!" Katherine said joyfully.

"Hello?" I heard Michael's voice say.

I smiled, "Hey, Michael. It's Mia!" I chirped.

"Hey, Mia! You sure sound happy." Michael chuckled.

I smirked.

"Did everything go alright last night?" Michael asked. I could hear the worry in his voice.

I bit my lip, not saying anything.

"Mia...." Michael's voice dragged my name.

"Yes, Michael. Everything went alright." I lied.

I made a fist as I bit on it, feeling guilty for the lie I just said.

"Are you sure, Mia? That took you a long time just to answer..." Michael said, unsure.

"Yeah, yeah. Everything went well, Michael. Don't worry." I said, awkwardly chuckling.

Michael sighed, "Alright, if you say so.."

I smirked. "My Uncle's out if you want to come over. I'm sure he wouldn't mind. Or I could go over there? I just have to be back by eight.." I said.

"We could meet at the local park we went to as kids?" Michael suggested.

I smiled, "I'd like that. I'll meet you there then?"

"Now?" Michael asked.

I chuckled, "Noo, eight o' clock." I sarcastically said.

Michael giggled, "Alright. I'll meet you now then." He said.

I smiled widely, "Okay. Bye, Michael!" I chirped.

"Bye" He said, hanging up the phone.

I put the phone down.

He sounded so odd over the phone.

I looked up at the clock.

7 A.M.

Ah... That's why.

Jeez, I'm up early. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I ran down towards the park, spotting Michael sitting on a bench.

"Michael! Hey!" I shouted, waving at him.

Michael smiled at me.

I ran up to Michael and sat beside him.

"I'm sorry it's so early, I didn't reali-"

"No, Mia. It's alright. I don't mind being woken up by you." Michael said.

I smirked, "Good."

Michael looked at me oddly, tilting his head.

"Your face is all red, why is that?" Michael asked, his face leaning closer to mine.

I pulled my collar up, covering my face.

"Did your Uncle do that..?" Michael carefully asked, focusing on my face.

"N-no, Michael." I stuttered.

"You're lying." Michael said.

I shook my head, "I'm not." I lied.
