““You like nice sweetie.” My mom complimented my strapless black dress.
“Thanks.” I said, adjusting my crutches.  “I have a date tonight.”
“Excuse me, I thought we agreed on dinner tonight?” My mom crossed her arms, waiting for an explanation.
“Sh//t.” I mumbled under my breath.  “Mom, I’m sorry, I totally forgot.  But this is really important.  Like, you have no idea.”
“Something is always more important than your family, isn’t it?” She asked, tears brewing in her eyes.
“Mom, come on.  It’s just one night, don’t get all emotional.” I rolled my eyes.
“Fine, have a nice time with your friends.” She answered sternly, proceeding to her bedroom.
“Whatever.” I scoffed, limping out to the driveway where Collin was waiting for me in his mustang.  I couldn’t wait until I was 16, and could drive wherever I wanted.
“You look nice.” He smiled as I made myself comfortable in the front seat.
“Yeah.”  I laughed sarcastically.  “The crutches really complete the outfit right?”
Collin laughed.  “So, who are we double dating with?”
“Well, uhm.” I laughed unsurely.  “Zoe and-“
“Zoe?!” He shot me an almost angry expression.
I gave him an innocent smile, hoping he wouldn’t be mad.  After all, Zoe is his ex-girlfriend.
“Oh come on.” I lightly punched his shoulder.  “It won’t be that bad.”
“I guess you’re right.” He shrugged his shoulders.
“Oh yeah, one more thing.” I said hesitantly, knowing that the whole Zoe thing was already a lot to take in.
“What?” He asked nervously.
“You have to make my ex-boyfriend jealous.” I said slowly, trying not to make eye contact.  “That’s who Zoe’s date is.”
“Really?” he asked surprised.  “Okay.”
“Seriously?  You spaz over a double date with Zoe, but you’re okay with me just telling you that you have to act like my boyfriend?”
“Yeah.” He winked at me.
I smiled, rolling my eyes at his immaturity.
“So, do I have to like, kiss you and stuff?” He asked hopefully.
“If you’re okay with that.” I giggled.
“I think I’ll manage.” He said happily, as we pulled up to the beach.
“Okay.” I sighed.  “You ready?”
He nodded, helping me out of the car.  Collin slipped his arm around me as we walked towards Zoe and Jake, who were standing next to a game on the pier.  I had to admit, the look on Zoe’s face was priceless when she saw me with Collin.
That’s right sweetheart, I thought to myself.
Paybacks's a b//tch.
         
  For all of you who left comments in the last chapter, thank you ♥ You are all amazing, and really made me feel better.  You guys are right, I shouldn't let that kind of stuff get to me.  &for those of you who were wondering, I wasn't considering the hate as people who pointed out my mistakes.  Some girl wrote me this big long paragraph on how my story sucked and that I was stupid.  I'm working on chapter 14 right now, should be up soon ♥
