"Colton!!Leslie!! Me,Dad and Schyler will be going shopping for the dance next week."Colton's mom said.
"Yes Mrs. Dixon...I'll go tell Colton.." I replied as I run into Colton's room.
I knock on the door..
"Come in."He said
I got in and closed the door
"Colton....your mom,dad and Sky will be going shopping for the dance.."
"Sure...they'll leave us two alone here?"
"Yer sorta."
"Great...Now I gotta take extra care of you."
"Geez..Colton..I'm not made in China! You don't need to take extra care of me."
"Okay..okay...fine."
I walked to the door and bumped my head ..
"Don't need to take extra care of you eh?"
"Ugghh!" I just stromed ut of the room "I'm going in my room."
"Hey Leslie!! We share rooms!"
I hate that fact..
I got in OUR room and slammed my head on a pillow.
"Sleepy?" he asked
"A little."
"Just sleep on my lap and I'll tell you when they're gone."
"No thanks....I don't have to sleep on your lap..that's why I have a pillow.."
"Come on..remember when it was your first week here? Youw anted to sleep on my lap cause you were used to sleeping on your dad's."
"Don't remind me.." I just got up and put my head on his lap...it felt so much like my dad's.
He stroked my hair and I instantly fell asleep.

"How could you stay so fit when you eat so much?" he asked me
"I dunno.." I replied.."I'm full"
