  Driving Me Crazy

  First Day back at Spring Creek High

  I wake up to the sound of my alarm clock and the smell of bacon, I get up and turn on the tap water to the shower, once it got fully hot I got in and let the hot water go down my back and through my red hair. Once I got finished I wrapped my hair in a towel and walked to my closet, I put on a long white polo shirt and skinny jeans with my black converse. Once I finished that I blow dry my long red hair and flatiron it straight, then I put on my black eyeliner and lip gloss. "Peyton, Jeffry, hurry up your food is getting cold", Aunt Stacy yelled from downstairs. I ran down stairs and ate my breakfast while Jeffry was sitting next to me, he was only four years old. I looked at my watch and saw that it was seven forty nine and school starts at eight. "Aunt Stacy, i'm leaving now", I told her as I gave her a hug. "Bye Peyton, have a good day at school". "That'll never happen", I said as I walked out the door. Right when I looked up I saw Damian walking out of his house, I tried to hide my face so he didn't see me. "Peyton", I heard him yell in a deep sexy tone. I looked over slowly and smiled at him, he walked towards me. "Wow, you have grown since last time I saw you". "Well that what people do, they grow up", I said still smiling. "Well, uh, I'm gonna go", I said trying to make him leave. "Well, bye", he walked back to his car and left. All I was thinking about was how sexy he looked. When I got to school I walked to the office and they gave me a paper for my classes, they made a boy named Shane show me around. "Hey, so whats your name", he asked with his deep voice. "It's Peyton Wilson, and yours". "Shane Dawson, so you new here", he asked nervously. "Yeah, I guess, but I lived here before so I can probably recognize some people from here." "Oh, well I hope you like it here", he said smiling at me. "Maybe we can be friends", I said being friendly. "Yeah, sure". I saw my class so I told him he could go. I walked in the class, all the desks were turned towards a board and they were in groups of four. I walked to the teacher desk. "Hello, are you Peyton Wilson", the women asked me. "Yes", I said with a smile. "Well I'm Mrs. Tutor, you can sit where ever you want. I sat in the middle of the room. The bell rung and people started rushing into the classroom. I saw Damian walk in, he saw me also and walked towards me. "Is anyone sitting here", he asked as he pulled out the chair beside me. "Nope". He sat down next to me after I said that. "So, I haven't seen you in four years". "Yeah", I said slowly. "Why did you leave". "You really wanna know", I said looking at him crazy because he didn't know. "Yeah, I guess." "I moved away because the whole time I was here I got made fun of, and I hated it". "Peyton I am so sorry, I was young and stupid", he said sorrily. I heard in his voice that he was telling the truth. "Excuse me, your in my seat", some girl with blonde hair said to me rudely. I looked at her like she was stupid. "Are you gone get up, or are you deaf." "I don't see nobody's name on this seat", I said looking around the chair and desk. She pushed my arm. "Hey uh bitch, don't touch me", I said looking at her. she rolled her eyes and walked away. "Wow, you've changed to", Damian said. "People change." After school I was walking to my car, when I heard someone calling my name, it was Shane. "Hey Peyton". "Hey". "What are you doing this weekend, I want you to meet some of my friends." "Sure, where do I meet you at." "We can meet at the park". "Yeah, sounds good, bye", I said walking to my car. "Bye". When I got in the car I turned on the radio, I didn't know the song but I listened to it anyway. I pulled in the driveway to my house, my little brother ran out when he heard me pull in. "Peyton", he yelled in excitedly. "Hey Jeffry, how was school." "It was fun I met some friends." "That's good". I walked in the house. "Peyton, how was your day, make any friends", Aunt Stacy asked me. "Yeah, I even made my own enemy, that how great school was". We both laughed. That night Aunt Stacy took us to a small restaurant to eat, when we got home I change into my pajama's, my pants were pink with white dots and I had on a white tank top over it. I went to my window and looked out of it, I saw Damian with his shirt off through his window. He had a six pack, I noticed I was staring and stopped before he saw me, I got into bed and went to sleep.

  Making Friends

  This morning I woke up happy because today was the day I was going to hang out with Shane and meet some of his friends. Aunt Stacy was gone on a business trip for a week, so I have to babysit Jeffrey. I went downstairs to make breakfast for him so when he wakes up he can just come eat, but I couldn't cook, I always burn the bacon and always put to much salt in the eggs, but I'm gonna try anyways. I put the bacon in the oven and went upstairs to take a quick shower because the bacon takes a while to cook. I turned on the water and waited for it to get hot, then I stripped off my clothes and got in the shower. When I got out of the shower and opened the door there was smoke everywhere, I ran downstairs and looked at the bacon, it was burning I looked for something to take the pan out, until the doorbell rang, I ran and opened it forgetting I only have a towel wrapped around my body. I opened the door and Damian was standing there. "What are you doing in here, I can see all the smoke from your house outside", he said walking in the house. "I'm cooking and the food is burning", I yelled at him. He ran in the kitchen and took the bacon out and turned off the oven. "Really, bacon, you burned bacon", he said smiling at me. "I was in the shower", I said embarrassed. "I see". He looked me up and down. "Well, maybe I should go put on some clothes". "Yeah, you should". I could see him laughing at me when I walked away. I ran upstairs to my room and put on some shorts and a tank top, I put on eyeliner and put my hair in a ponytail because I didn't have time to dry it right now. When I finished getting dressed I walked down the hall to see if Jeffrey was still asleep, he wasn't in his bed. So I walked downstairs, I saw him eating cereal and talking to Damian about his action figures. "Hey Bud", I said to Jeffrey, Aunt Stacy calls him that because that was our grandfathers nickname (Aunt Stacy's dad) and she says that Jeffrey looks just like him. "Hey Peyton, why is it so smoky in here", he asked me as he coughed. "I burned some food", I said looking at him. "Oh, well I'm gonna go to my room and play with my toys", he said as he ran up the stairs. I walked past Damian and opened up the windows in the living room so the smoke would leave. Then I sat down across from him. "You can leave now, if you want". "Nah, I wanna get to know the new Peyton", he said smiling. "I can't right now, I have to go, I'm meeting someone". "Who", he said being nosy. "Shane Dawson, he invited me to the park to meet some of his friends". "Oh, well can we talk tomorrow night, I'm going to a party you can come with me", he said staring at me. "No". I got up and walked to the door, then I remembered that I can't leave Jeffrey here alone. I turned around and smiled at Damian. "Why are you smiling at me like that". "Can you stay here with Jeffrey and babysit him for me, please", I said wearing my puppy dog face. "No". "If you babysit him for me then I will go to that party with you." "Deal", he said smiling at me, his smile was so sexy. I walked out of the door and closed it behind me, then got in my car. When I pulled up at the park I saw Shane sitting on a bench with one other person. I got out of the car and walked towards them. "Hey Peyton you made it", Shane said happily. "Hey I'm Veronica, but you can call me Ronnie", a girl with dark brown hair and brown eyes said. "More people were coming but couldn't make it", Shane told me. "Oh, it's fine", I said smiling. By the end of the day me, Ronnie, and Shane were really good friends, we all had a lot in common. That afternoon I got home to see Jeffrey sleep on the couch and Damian watching TV on the other. Damian saw me and got up off the couch, he walked outside and I followed him. "Hey, thanks for babysitting for me", I said handing him twenty dollars. He smiled at me. "I don't want your money". "But I owe you." "Your going to that party with me, that all I want", he smiled at me. "Ok". I blushed when he said that. He walked to his house and I went inside of mine. I thought to myself, today was a great day.

  This is NOT A Date
/>
  I go through my closet and put on my short white dress with my heels, then I went to my mirror and did my makeup. I put my hair in beautiful curls. I hear the door bell ring and I run downstairs to open it, it is the babysitter that I called to babysit Jeffrey. "So Jeffrey already ate and now he is sleeping, help yourself to anything in the kitchen", I told her before I heard the doorbell ring again. I went to open it and this time it was Damian. "Wow, you look great", he said to me as he looked at me. "Thank you, you look sexy, I mean good you look good". Crap I thought to myself, I just told him he looked sexy, and all he did was smile. After all of that we walked to his car and he opened the door for me. "Thank you", I said getting in the car. "Your welcome". When we arrived at the party he walked around and opened the door for me, I got out of the car. "Is this all the people from our school", I said wide eyed because there were lots of people. "No, some of these people are in colleges and some are friends from other people." "Oh, well this is a lot of people here, and your probably the only person here that I know." "Well you'll meet someone, C'mon lets go inside". When we walked inside all you could see was drunk teens and lots of them making out. It was so many people in there that I lost Damian so I just stood up against the wall. "Hey, whats up", some drunk guy asked me, he looked like he was a college student, he was talking all in my face. "Can you please get out of my face", I said in the nicest way possible. "You know you want this just give me kiss", he said trying to put his lips on mine. "Ugh, get away". I pushed him away and walked upstairs where it was quieter, I went to an empty room and closed the door. I turned on the TV to the discovery channel and relaxed on the bed. Minutes later Damian came in the room. "Hey, what are you doing up here by yourself", he said as he laid next to me on the bed. "Parties aren't really my thing". "Oh, well I'm sorry for making this night boring for you." "It's fine, I've had worse dates." "Date", Damian said smiling. "I didn't say date, this is not a date", I said pointing at him. "Well if you want to go on a date I would love to go on one with you", he said staring at me. I got so lost in his dark green eyes that I didn't notice he was leaning in for a kiss and I was too. "No, I can't kiss you", I said as I jumped out of the bed. "Why can't you", he said as he got out of the bed to. "I just can't." I left the room and walked to his car and got in it, he got in to. "Just take me home please", I said staring out the window. "Fine", he said looking at me. Until he just pulled me over and kissed me, I started to pull away but he was to strong, I began kissing him back, he kissed me so lightly. After that kiss we didn't talk the whole ride back to my house, when we arrived in the parking lot, I got out and waved at him then I went in the house. "Excuse me, Jeffrey is still asleep", the babysitter told me, I paid her before she left. I checked all the doors and then went upstairs to my room, I changed into my pajama's and got into bed. All I could think about was that kiss and I wish it had never happened.

  Jealousy

  Today I have school, and I don't wanna go because Damian is gonna be there, and I don't wanna talk to him. This morning I got up and walked to the bathroom, I turned on the shower until it was hot then I got in. When I finished I wore a pretty sun dress, it was blue, just like my eyes, and it had white dots on it, I also wore my white flats with my dress. I decided to wear my hair up today because I really didn't feel like doing it, then I went to the bathroom, put on my eyeliner, and then I put on my lip gloss. After that I walked down the hall and knocked on Jeffrey's door. "Are you ready for me to take you to school", I screamed through the door. "Yes, I'm just putting on my shoes". I have to take Jeffrey to school because my Aunt still isn't back yet. When Jeffrey came downstairs, me and him went outside and got into the car, before I drove him to school I stopped by McDonald's and got him a sausage and biscuit because he didn't eat at home. When I got to his school I gave him a hug and he got out of the car, I watched him go in before I left. When I pulled up at my school I saw Shane and Ronnie walking up to my car. "Hey, Peyton", Ronnie said as she hugged me. "So, I have to tell you guys what happened Saturday", I told them both as we all made our way to the library. We sat down in the back of the library, it had chairs and cushions over there, and there was also a coffee table right in the middle. "Ok, so what happened Saturday", Shane asked. "Well, I went to a party with Damian, and he kissed me". "OMG, he did I bet that was incredible, did you like it", Ronnie screamed. "Shh", the library lady told us. "Wait wait, you and Damian kissed, I bet it was horrible, he probably can't kiss", Shane said annoyed. I looked at Shane weirdly because he looked mad. "Ooo, Shane is jealous",Ronnie teased. I just laughed. "I'm not jealous." "Guys, stop, the bells about to ring so maybe we should go to class". We all went our separate ways when we left the library, I walked to my class. When I walked in I sat in the middle, like always, then I remembered that Damian sits right next to me. The bell rung and everyone rushed in the class, Damian came in talking to some friends, he saw me and came towards me and sat down next to me. "Hey, Peyton". I didn't say anything back to him, I couldn't even speak. "Are you gonna speak to me", he said as he looked at me. I just made up a stupid excuse. "We're in class right now, maybe you should listen to the teacher", I didn't even look at him when I spoke. After class I walked out of the room. "Peyton". I heard someone yell from behind me, I knew who it was so I kept walking. "Peyton, why aren't you talking to me", Damian said as he walked next to me. "We have nothing to talk about". "What about the kiss, didn't you like it." "What kiss, It never happened", I said knowing as I walked faster, he didn't follow me anymore after I said that. I know saying that hurt his feelings, but I had to, I couldn't be with him. After school I drove to pick Jeffrey up from school. The whole ride home he told me all about his day and his friends, I was happy because he had fun. When I pulled up at my house in the parking lot, I saw Damian at his house playing basketball with a group of friends, I got out of the car and some of the guys started whistling at me, I just looked back at Damian and shook my my head, then I went in the house. That night I called Aunt Stacy so she could know that me and Jeffrey were Ok, I told her about the kiss and everything. When I got off the phone with her me and Jeffrey ate, and watched a movie. Jeffrey fell asleep during the movie so I turned off the TV, carried him to his bed, and tucked him in. Then I walked to my room and went to bed.

  Playing Games: Part 1

  I walk out the door and see Damian standing there. "What the hell are you doing in front of my door". "Coming to see you, do you need a ride to school". "No, I don't", I say as I walk past him. "I know you like me, you just won't admit it, You even called me sexy", he said bringing up that night. "Just because I called you sexy doesn't mean I like you, now I have to go, and so do you". He walked back to his car and drove away, I also got into my car and headed to school. Aunt Stacy was back so I didn't have to drive Jeffrey to school. When I pulled up in the parking lot I noticed that Damian's car was right next to mine. Him and his friends stared at me as I got out of the car. One of them walked up to me, "Hey girl, you look good, do you wanna be my girlfriend". I looked at him crazy until I saw Shane and Ronnie walking over here, I grabbed Shane and kissed him, "Sorry, but I already have a boyfriend", I said as I pulled Shane away. Ronnie cracked up the whole time while Shane had his eyes wide open. I looked at Damian, smiled, then I walked away with my friends. "Ok girl, what was that all about", Ronnie said smiling, Shane still had his eyes wide open. "Just trying to make Damian leave me the hell alone". "But why, you like him don't you". "Yeah, but he humiliated me, and called me names, and now he wants to date me, I can't just forgive him, it's hard to forget when someone does something like that to you." "Well he's hot and can get any girl in this school, and he wants you, maybe you should think about it, and while your thinking about it you might want to tell Shane he's not your real boyfriend." We both laughed. After school today, I drove home and once again saw Damian's friends at his house playing basketball, so I called Shane. "Hey, Shane can you come over." "I would love to come over, be there in two minutes." I hung up the phone and sat on the steps in my yard, Damian
saw me looking at them so he took off his shirt showing of his six pack, I just rolled my eyes at the sight even though I loved it. Shane pulled up in my yard and Damian was still looking, so I went up to Shane and made out with him right in front of Damian and his friends. Then I pulled Shane in my house and we went to my bedroom. "So we date now", Shane asked confused. "Yeah, well no, it's just to get Damian to leave me alone, that's it." "Oh, well if we, you know he would be really mad and then he would leave you alone." I laughed at Shane for saying something so stupid. "I'm not having sex with you Shane, I'm still a version and I wanna lose my virginity to someone I love not someone I'm using". "I'm glad to be used, by you", Shane said smiling. "Would you ever go out with me for real", Shane asked seriously. "Shane, your sweet and cute, but your more brother material than boyfriend material." "I'll never get a girlfriend." "You and Ronnie would make a cute couple", I said now thinking about it. "No, she's hot and everything, but I don't like her like that." When me and Shane finished talking he left to go home. That night my Aunt made us spaghetti to eat, after I ate I went straight to bed happy thinking that Damian would finally leave me alone. The next day, I woke up and took a shower, the water was just how I liked it. When I got out of the shower I ate breakfast. "So, Peyton who was that guy you invited over", Aunt Stacy asked me. "Just a friend". "A friend with benefits, I saw you two kissing in the front yard". "Ugh, I was just kissing him to get the guy across the street to leave me alone, that's all". "I think you like the boy across the street". "I don't like him", I said walking out of the house. When I got to school I was walking the halls with Shane and Ronnie until I got to my locker, I saw something that made me mad, Ronnie had her mouth wide open. I couldn't believe what was going on.......
