"Madison come down. They're here" my mother called. I sighed and shut my laptop, sliding it under the bed. I got up and looked at myself in my long mirror that hung on the wall right by my door.
My hazel colored hair was curled and went down to my shoulders. My plain white crop top and ripped jeans matched perfectly with my black converse. It was the weekend before school.
I didn't want to look nice for tonight. Frankly, I didn't know why I was here.
My mother works as a lawyer and these were the very few weekends she got off. She decided to invite some old friends to come over and have a few drinks with her. She said they had kids my age and she needed me to be here. Trust me I would not spend my Saturday like this. It was the weekend before school started. I would be hanging out with my friends or at a party.
Not this.
I opened my door instantly heard talking.
"Oh you got a new Micheal Kors bag?" I heard my mom asked.
"Yes. The old one was just too... Basic for me. I work as a lawyer, I need to look my best" I heard a women say.
Great. These are her WORK friends. Why would she spend her only weekend off with snobby people from work? I don't want to hang out with their kid!
I turned the corner and saw everyone making small talk right beside the door. They stopped there boring conversation and stared at me.
"Uh hi?" I said.
"Oh everyone this is my daughter" my mom said. "Madison"
Everyone nodded slowly and stared at me. I didn't realize why. I was getting annoyed.
I scanned the room for someone my age and couldn't find anyone. There were just these up tight middle aged people in their fancy work clothes.
That's it.
My clothes.
I looked down and realized what they were staring at. My outfit wasn't 'appropriate'. It showed off my belly button ring and my boobs. That's why my mother sighed when she said my name.
"Well then" some guy said clapping his hand. "We should get going"
"Oh yes" my mother said. "Just let me grab my purse. Uh Madison could you help me" She gave me this look and I sighed.
I knew what I was in for.
I followed her upstairs into her bedroom and she closed the door.
"What the hell was that?" She spat.
"I am so sorry mom I thought these were old friends not your work friends" I said.
"You made me look like a fool downstairs!" She yelled sitting on the bed. "My reputation matters there do you understand that? You looking like that made me look like I let my kid dress like a hooker!"
"Mom you have never been bothered by what I wear before" I said.
"Well when it comes to work I do. Those snobby assholes care" she said. The room became silent. I sat down beside her.
"Why would you waste your only weekend free with them?" I asked.
"Because. They invited me and I haven't gone out since.."
"I know" I said, hoping she wouldn't finish that sentence. She sighed and got up. She grabbed her Micheal Kors purse off her dresser and looked at herself in the mirror.
"Does this even match?" She asked. She wore a Navy blue blazer with a white shirt underneath and a black skirt to follow. Her black high heels made her look taller then she actually was which she liked. Her blonde hair was tied back into a pony and her makeup looked perfect.
"Yeah it does mom. You look great" I said.
"Thank you" she said. "You will like the boy down there. He is really easy on the eyes"
I laughed. Wait? There was a boy down there. I didn't even notice.
We walked back downstairs and to the door.
"Shall we?" My mom said. They laughed and all left.
It was just me. Alone.
No boy. No teenage kid I have to make small talk with. Just me.
I sighed and locked the door. I leaned against it for awhile and kind of stood there.
I wasn't dissapointed. Nor was I upset. I guess I was mad that I had nothing to do on a Saturday night.
I started to walk over to the kitchen when I heard the toilet flush. I stopped and turned around looking at the bathroom. The door was closed and the light was on.
"Hello?" I called. No answer. I heard the sink turn on and I was instantly freaked.
"Hello?" I yelled. The doorknob turned and it shot open.
"Hi?" A boy said. Wow. My mom was right. He is easy on the eyes. Or as I would say it. GORGEOUS.
He had black hair and ocean blue eyes. He was wearing a white V-Neck with black shorts and Adidas sneakers. I stared at him and realized he was checking me out.
"Oh um my name is Tanner" he said. turning off the faucet and drying his hands. "I am guessing you didn't get the dress code either?"
I laughed. "Yeah. They all stared at me like I killed someone"
He smiled. I am not kidding when I say his smile was so perfect that I wanted to go hug his parents for making this beautiful creature.
"So what do you do for fun?" He asked.
"Usually go to the mall or watch a movie" I said. "But I have like $20 bucks"
He laughed. "I am kinda hungry. Do you want to order pizza?"
"Sure" I said. "I can pay if you want"
"Nah. You have like $20 bucks. You should save it" he said pulling out his phone. I laughed and walked over to the fridge to get us some drinks.
This guys was so perfect. He is funny, GORGEOUS, and seemed so nice. His hair looks so soft I could just...
"It'll be here in 30min" he said. I jumped and looked over the fridge.
"You scared me" I laughed. "That was really quick"
"Yeah I order from this place a lot so they know what I like" he said.
"What do you want to drink?" I asked.
"I will just have what you are having" he said. I nodded and poured some Pepsi into two glasses.
"Here" I said handing one to him. He grabbed it and drank it instantly.
"Thirsty much?" I asked.
"For you yes" he said. I was shocked by his words and almost spit out the Pepsi in my glass.
So he's a fuck boy?
He laughed. "I am kidding" he said. I smiled and put my glass down.
"So what is your story?" He asked.
"My what?" I replied.
"Your story. Like your life story" he said. I thought for a minute.
"Well my mom grew up in Chicago where she met my dad. They loved each other a lot. I guess they got into things too fast and my mom ended up pregnant with me at a very young age" I said.
"How young?" He asked.
"19" I replied. "She was scared. She had plans. She wanted to go to college and move to California and live her life without this big responsibility. When she told my dad he was mad. He told her to get an abortion and when she said no he left her"
"That's terrible" he said.
"She ended up working two jobs and I stayed with my Aunt most of the time. She was the only free babysitter my mom had. I spent pretty much my first 3 years with her. When my mom got enough money she moved us to California and we stayed in a shitty apartment until I was 9"
"How shitty?" He asked.
"There was only one room and it was the bathroom. Everything was open" I said.
"That's pretty shitty" he said.
"After that we moved a lot. We moved almost twice a year. Up until I was 14 I was used to living in boxes. I would never fully unpack anything because we would move soon after. Until we got this house permanently and I have lived here ever since" I said.
"Wow" he replied. "That's very interesting"
"Yeah I guess" I replied taking a sip of my Pepsi. It was silent for a few minutes until I put my glass down.
"So what do you wanna do?" I asked.
"I don't know. Watch some Netflix?" He asked.
"And chill? No thanks" I replied. He laughed.
"No I know this really good movie you might like" he said.
"How do you know what movies I like?" I asked.
"Well most girls like romance so you might like it" he replied. I sighed and handed him the remote.
He turned on the TV and went straight to Netflix. I had a really bad feeling about this.
"You know I have read stuff online about this" I said crossing my arms. "Girls get raped when the guy just want to 'watch Netflix and chill'"
He laughed. "So now you're calling me a rapist?"
"No but it happens" I said.
"Well trust me I won't rape you" he said smiling.
"Why should I trust you I barely know you" I said. "Hey I told you my story you tell me yours"
He sighed. "Do you really care?" He asked.
"Yes I do" I said sitting on the couch, cross legged.
"Okay" he said sitting next to me. "My mom got pregnant with me at 23. A pretty young age. She didn't have any money and her parents wouldn't pay shit for her"
"She ended up moving out of a gorgeous mansion and into a shitty apartment. She told my dad and he wanted to help her so he worked two jobs while my mom was in college, becoming a Lawyer. They saved up so much and buy the time she had me they could afford to move into a town house. She graduated college and became a lawyer. My dad quit his two jobs and started his own company"
"That's cool" I said. "What does he sell?"
"It's a plumbing company" he said. I laughed. "Anyways that is how we got so much money and moved into a big house like this. Trust me, my parents aren't always stuck up. They just act like that because they feel like they need to to keep up their reputation"
"My mom feels the same" I replied. Netflix loaded and he scanned through the profiles.
"Nugget?" He asked.
"My mom used to call me that so she put that as my profile.. Plus I would've changed it if I knew a cute guy was coming over" I said.
"You think I'm cute?" He asked. I suddenly realized what I said and became really red. The doorbell rang and I got up quickly.
"I'll get it" I said walking over to the door. I felt eyes on me and I turned slightly and saw him checking me out again. I smiled and opened the door.
"Hello?" I asked.
"Hi um pizza for Madison Clark?" He asked.
"Oh yeah one sec" I said closing the door. I went over to the coffee table to grab my money.
"Here" Tanner said. I turned and he was holding a $20 bill.
"No it is okay I have money" I said.
"No I said I will pay" he replied standing up. "C'mon just let me pay"
"No I have my money" I said.
"Well I am going to the door first" he said walking. I smiled and ran to the door. He followed and beat me there and gave the guy the money.
"Thank you have a great day" he said grabbing the pizza and closing the door. He smiled at me.
"Here let me pay you back" I said as he was putting the pizza on the counter. I followed and sat on the counter in front of the pizza.
"Can't get any unless you let me pay you" I said. He laughed and grabbed me by the waist but stopped.
He stared at me and put my hair behind my ear. I looked into his eyes and crashed my lips into his.
I ran my fingers through his hair and he lifted me off the counter and started walking to the couch. His lips were so soft I could kiss them all day.
He laid me on the couch and got on top of me. He took his shirt off and continued kissing me.
~~~
I woke up and saw Netflix on the TV. I don't remember watching Netflix. I groaned and turned over to see Tanner beside me.
Naked.
I gasped and looked under the covers.
I was naked also.
I looked around and saw our clothes everywhere. I wrapped the thin blanket around me and grabbed my jeans and grabbed my phone through the back pocket.
"Too drunk to come home. Took a cab to a hotel. See you tomorrow - Love mom"
I sighed and nudged Tanner.
"Tanner" I whispered and then wondered why I was whispering. "Tanner" I yelled.
His eyes opened and he looked around. "Where am I?" He asked.
"Um at Madison's house?" I said. He nodded and looked around. "What happened?"
"I don't know but you need to get dressed and go!" I said.
"Wait why? I thought my parents were with your par- Mom?" He asked.
"They are but they went to a hotel and will be here tomorrow" I said.
"So why do I need to leave?" He asked.
"Um because she sent this to me at 11pm and it is almost 12pm" I said.
"Shit!" He replied and grabbed his clothes. "Wait.. Are you naked too?"
"Yes now hurry and get dressed" I said. He had a look of worry on his face and walked into the bathroom.
I grabbed my clothes and got dressed in the middle of the living room. I pulled up my pants and Tanner came out of the bathroom.
"This isn't good" he said.
"No really? I thought this was great? I slept with some dude I barely now an-" I stopped. "Di.. Did you use protection?"
"Yes of course I did" he said. "I think"
"Great" I replied.
"This is really bad" he repeated.
"Stop saying that" I said.
"No you don't get it!" He said.
"I have a girlfriend"
