         I awoke the next morning with a terrible pain in my head. I quickly rose up and clutched my head to stop the blinding pain. Then I remebered I had spent most of last night crying,, which may have resulted in this headache. As I rolled out of bed, and image of Troy popped in my head. "I miss you Troy," I said crumpling to my knees, But I just couldn't seem to cry anymore. It seemed as if all of my tears had dryed up.

         Suddenly my attention was focused on the door, because of a gentle knock."Come in," I replied getting to my feet. "Rise and shine," smiled Richard planting himself on the edge of my bed. I just sit myself back down in the floor against my dresser, staring blankly at Richard. "I know you are upset about Troy having to leave early, but he told me that the classes were beginning alot earlier than he expected," He said gazing warmly at me. I just sit there slowly closing my eyes, because I knew the real reason why Troy had to leave, and that reason was me, all me.

       All of a sudden a silent tear managed to escape. Richard removed himself off the bed and walked over to me wiping the tear that exposed itself. "Kailee how about we do something together?" He asked cheerfully. "Like what?" I asked showing no interest. "Like go see a movie," He said smiling. However I hadn't been to one of those in like two years. "I guess," I replied standing up. He then clapped his hands together. "Then its settled, you have an appointment in five minutes with Dr. Richard to go see a movie," he said trying to make a joke.

      I then took my hand and covered his mouth. "Please Richard don't ruin it for me," I replied laughing. "Yes mam," he said walking to the door. "I will be in the car madame," He said bowing and leaving my room. "Sometimes I swear Richard acts just like a kid," I said to myself laughing. I walked out to meet him and soon we pulled up at the movies. "Can I have your hand my lady," replied Richard opening my cardoor for me and extending his hand. "Um I guess ," I replied grabbing his hand. He then chuckled and we both entered the theatre.

       "You know your mother doesn't ever do anything like this with me," he said sounding a little dissapointed. "But at least I am here with my best friend," he said winking at me. I had to roll my eyes and laugh at Richard's desperate atempt to get me to like him. As we got seated I couldn't help but notice that Richard was still wearing that pained expression, but I wasn't really quite sure why. Yes I could definatley see why my mother fell for him alright, he was absolulety stunning. He had a five a clock shadow , but it only made him even more appealing in my opionion.

      Even the odor of his cologne swept me off my feet. After the movie we soon departed for the house. Once we were there he opened my door for me and we both started towards the door. It was about 9:00pm and still no sign of Diane. "Looks like she will be late again," replied Richard sighing while turning the knob to the front door.

2 months later---------------------------------------------------------------

     As the two months slowly passed by , I found myself spending more and more time with Richard. Just as he once said , we were kind of like best friends. My mother started coming home later and later every night and even sometimes she wouldn't come home at all. I was still waiting patiently for the next time I would get to lay my eyes on Troy again. Oh how I longed to be held the way Troy held me, but I was never again going to know that feeling, it is now just a memory in my mind.

       "Hey Kailee!" Shouted Richard from the other room. "What!" I called out to him walking down the stairs. "Troy wrote me today," he said with a grin. "Really , what did he say?" I asked anxiously. "Woah , hold your horses," he said laughing . "Ok here it is:

Dear Dad,

    I have decided to stop by and visit you Thursday night for dinner and I hope you don't mind me bringing by my new friend.

Love,

Troy.

      Wow , Troy has made a friend, I thought wildly in my mind. I couldn't help but wander what he might look like, or his name. "Omg Richard, thats tonight!" I screamed coming back into realitly. I quickly dashed upstairs and got ready then I place myself on the sofa. A little bit later there was that gentle knock on the door, in which only Troy could make. My heart began racing as I darted to the door and opened it. But what I saw immediatly made my mouth drop. There standing in front of me was the incredibly handsome Troy, standing beside a tall blonde woman.

      She was a knock out of coarse.I felt crushed , but I stepped aside and allowed them to enter. "Hey!" shouted Richard holding out his arms to hug Troy, but for some reason I couldn't remove my gaze from the blonde woman seated on our sofa.
