Excuse me, I'm Stopping!

Evan Pov

EVan POV:

After school, I went home and waited patiently in my room. The doorbell rang suddenly, so I jumped. That must be him.

"You're late" I said.

"sorry. Mom told me to do some chores," she said slowly.

"Or because you're too busy hanging out with squirrels?" I asked.

"Squir. oh you mean Brent. No, not that," he said.

"Follow me" I pulled his arm and went to my room and slammed the door shut.

"I don't understand," Elena said as she fixed her glasses. "Your room looks clean." she looked at me confusedly.

"Forget about cleaning. What's wrong with you and Brent?" ask directly.

"Oh um.we.

he," he hesitated.

"You think you like it" I said. I suddenly felt upset. It is not uncommon for a teenage girl to have a crush, but why should she choose that squirrel face?

"Yes. He said I was sweet. No one had called me sweet before," she smiled shyly at me.

"So, a man calls you sweet and you'll fall in love with him? Are you stupid?" I don't know why, but this conversation made me angry.

"I'm not stupid! L like it. I think he's funny too and he's taking me to the movies with him on Saturday" she said.

"Oh, is it really now? Little hamster dating squirrel boy. That's sweet," I sneered.

"Evan, please. Please don't destroy this for me! I won't have another chance, most people think I'm too skinny or too ugly" he asked. His eyes began to water. Is he going to cry now?

"OK okay, Jesus. Dating that moron, I don't care" I said rudely.

"That's why I can't do the job for you anymore. Brent said he didn't like me being submissive" Elena said.

Oh, so that's where his courage comes from.

"You know, I'll go and pity you. I'm not gonna ask you to do anything until you go on your stupid date. I want to see how it falls apart. That'd be fun." I grinned.

Elena's face turned bright. "okay!

"She..looks.like...squirrel," Evan spelled it out for me. Why should he be bad to everyone?

"No, he didn't!" my protest.

"Then your taste in men is very bad" commented Evan.

"No, I don't! Otherwise, I'll date you!" i exclaimed. Oops... I just insulted him. I die.

Evan looked at me sharply. His blue eyes are shining. Is he crazy? I don't know.

"Is that a comeback?" He's looming over me. I was nervous and dropped the fork on the plate.

"T..no, no," I stammered.

"What's wrong with me, huh? Don't you think I'm good enough for you?"

challenge Evan.

"That's not what I meant. Sorry," I said and looked down.

He looked at me for a few seconds and then patted my head. "Don't worry about that. I'll forgive you for now. How's food?" She asked.

"That's .. that's good," I still can't believe he let me off the hook.

I hope he's not too upset because I didn't come to lunch with him. I'm sure he's. God knows what he'll do to me once he finds out I'm with Brent.

Surprisingly enough, he was not angry. He kept asking me about Brent. And when I told him, he took it very well. Besides, he fed me!

That's the weird thing about Evan. He was always mean to me and insulted me, but at the same time, he brought me a lunch that was strangely sweet. She always complained about how I didn't eat enough. One day I asked her about it and all she told me was, "I hate skinny whores." I mean, what the fuck is this?

He told me to sit at the table and have lunch. The food was good, so I didn't complain.

"So, what do you like about squirrel faces?" evan asked while I was eating.

"Um.I think he's funny" I said honestly.

"She..looks.like...squirrel," Evan spelled it out for me. Why

Elena's face turned bright. "okay! Then I'll go home now" he said and was about to leave but I clutched his arm when I heard his stomach rumble.

"You don't eat a lot when you hang out with that fool, do you?" I looked at him sharply. He looked hungry, plus his stomach wasn't lying.

"No. I missed lunch" he said hesitantly and lowered his head.

"I know that. I can't leave you alone for a minute. What happens if you pass out? That squirrel is definitely not going to take your ass to the hospital with those skinny hands!" i scolded her. "Sit on the kitchen table. I'll heat up the food."

"No need! I'll go home" he protested.

"Am I asking you!" i roared.

He was pouting but did not dare to fight me. He sat at the kitchen table and waited like a good girl.

POV Name:

I can't believe Brent asked me out on a date! It makes me very happy. No one ever took me out because they thought I looked tacky. And that's all thanks to these glasses. Or maybe I'm just ugly? I don't know.

I was surprised when he asked me at lunch. I couldn't say anything for the first few minutes.

"Elena? Are you listening? So...do you want to go to the movies or not?" Brent asked again.

"Ah.um..me.." I started muttering. My face is flushed. Ow hell! Why am I so awkward?

"Is that not?" Brent raised his eyebrows.

NAY! I blew it!

"No! I mean yes! I'd love to," I said excitedly.

"Good then. I'll pick you up on Saturday" Brent smiled.

"O.ok," I said.

After school, Brent offered to drive me home but I had to refuse. Evan wanted me to come clean his room, so I had to go to his house. But I can't tell Brent about that. Evan always made me do things like this. When will this nightmare end?

"No, I'm fine" I said slowly.

"OKAY. You can go," he said.

Oh, thank God, I can't last a second sitting in front of him. I gotta get out of here!

"By the way," she stopped me before I made it out the door. "You're gonna report to me about your date. To the last detail" he said.

"Huh? But why?" I asked.

"Don't ask me, just do what I say" he snapped.

I left without saying anything. Who does he think he rules me like this?
