FreeNovelBreakfast didn't happen. By the tI got out the shower he had already left. A note stuck to the fridge, something to do with patrolling and changeover but he assuredhe would be back for lunch time. I fixed myself scoffee whilst texting back and forth with Alanna. I still wanted to go out. I needed to deposit the cheque and I wanted to have a look round the mall. I was to pick Alanna up at her mom's. I grabbed my jacket, slipped my feet into my boots and grabbed my purse on the way out.
But just like always something must creep in and disrupt my day.
George was standing by my car.
"I'm heading out". I unlocked my car walking to the driver's side.
"I just need five minutes of your time".
"I'm not ready to talk to her yet". I had to keep reminding myself that I was putting myself first. No one else mattered right now. Not my gran and not Lana. I was happy, let's face it I haven't been this happy in a long time. For once I wasn't worrying about someone else. I was focusing on myself, putting my needs and my happiness above everyone else.

I couldn't do this now. I didn't want to think about any of this. I had enough on my plate without adding my gran to it. I wasn't ready to see her, and I didn't want to be forced by guilt.
"I'm sorry I'm just not ready". I opened my car door and got in. I didn't expect the wave of sadness that washed over me. I still couldn't believe this is what it had cdown to. My gran and I not talking. Our relationship ruined.
How did we even get here? I honked my horn I pulled up outside. I ran over in my head what just happened. George was here but was my gran with him? Where was she staying? Was she okay? I ran a hand down my face. It was never going to change. One thing after another. It seemed my life was never going to be simple again.
"Hey". Alanna smiled as she got in.
"Hi".
"You, okay?". She asked. "Please tellyou and Jake aren't fighting again?".
"Jake and I are fine. It's everyone else". I pulled away from the side of the road and took off down the street.
"I see George is back in town".
"Yeah". I sighed.
"Is your gran with him?".
I shrugged. I assumed she was. George lived in the town over if anything that's where they would be staying. Maybe that's where she has been all this time. She pulled a cowardly move, and I couldn't wait to hear her excuse for leaving me. "Do you want to go out tonight?".
"Yes". I didn't need to think about my answer. We hadn't been out in forever and it's exactly what I needed. A night out with friends surrounded by laughter and alcohol.
A laugh fell from her lips. "Girls night it is then".

I was stuffed. I ate everything on my plate and two slices of bacen Alanna Sofbacen left. I took a sip of my coke; I could feel her watching me. "You sure you aren't pregnant?".
I almost choked on my straw. "Positive. I'm bleeding". That was a nice surprise after my shower this morning.
"You sure?".
"Just because I finished my breakfast doesn't mean I'm pregnant". I knew my own bh body and my period states the obvious. "I haven't eaten much over the last few days. I'm just catching up". I wasn't pregnant.
"If you say so". She took a sip of her coke. "How are you feeling with m Jessica being kicked out of the pack?". "She got what she deserved". I shrugged.
