Mia went down to the dinning room only to be told she wasn't eating. She flipped her father off and went back to her room. She locked her door and went out the window for food. She made sure not to be seen and took off. She was back before anyone knew she had left. She was laying on her bed when her cell phone vibrated. She looked at it and sighed. Darren, a friend from Texas, where they use to live. And by friend I mean someone who supplied her. She was clean now. She didn't answer. She just slowly drifted off to sleep.

Mia was woken up by the sound of something being thrown at her window. She looked at the time. 10:35. She growled as she got up. She was quite content sleeping. She went to her window and saw Pierre.

"Hey!" He called.
"Shh! My dad will hear you! What are you doing here?" She said in a hush, but kind of loud voice.
"I was wondering if you wanted to come over tomorrow. We have band practice." He said.
"I can't. I'm grounded." She said as she stood at her window.
"Oh come on! Please! We have some new songs! I want you to hear them!" He pouted.
"I'll try! Shit! You better go! Someones coming!" She said as she heard someone walking down the hall. She shut her window and laid down.

The next day at school Mia avoided Cara by hiding every time she walked near her.

"Hey!" David smiled as Mia sat next to him in class. Pierre was on his other side.
"Hey D. What's up?" She asked.
"Bored. You coming to practice tonight?" He asked.
"I can't." She said as the teacher walked in.
"Ok! No talking! This is study hall!" He shouted.
"And yet none of us are deaf!" Mia said.
"Get to work." He stated.
"Come on Mia! You have to come to practice." Pierre said.
"I told you I can't. If I can sneak out, maybe." She said.

Mia's day went fast. She had to avoid Cara every chance she got and now she had to figure out how to get out of the house to see the guys. She knew how, she just had to pray her dad was at work. She got home and no one was there. There was a note though.

Mia, Your mother, Cara and I are gone. Your still grounded. We won't be back until tomorrow morning. You better be here when we get back or you will regret it. Order a pizza for dinner.
Your father

Mia was on cloud nine. She had the house to herself. She smiled to herself as she walked to the phone. She set it up so that all calls would be transferred to her cell. She ran out of the house to Pierre's house and knocked on the door.

"Hey! I thought you were grounded." He said.
"It's cool. My house is empty for the day." She smiled.
"Well....the guys have stuff to do. Practice was canceled." He sighed.
"You wanna come hang with me?" She asked.
"Sure." He smiled.

They went to her house and she turned her cell off after she canceled the redirection. She called for pizza and she and Pierre watched TV until it showed up.

"So you have a girlfriend?" She asked.
"No. I just said that." He laughed.
"Really? So your single." She said.
"Yup." He smiled.
"You looking?" Mia asked.
"Maybe. All depends on who is asking." He smirked.
"Wanna go out once I'm off being grounded?" She asked.
"Sure." He smiled.

Before either of the knew what happened Pierre leaned over and softly kissed her. She wasn't sure what to think, she couldn't think. The feeling of him kissing her was too good. She kissed him back as the phone rang. Mia jumped and grabbed it.

"Hello?......yes...no.......yea.....I said no. I'm doing anything dumb.....Ok yea.....Yes I ordered a small.......well I'm the only one here......yes. Bye." She said.

She sat back down only to get back up and get the door. She brought the pizza in and she and Pierre ate.

Once done Pierre and Mia cleaned up and did their homework. Not much got done though. They began to make out in her room when the phone rang once more. Mia groaned as she grabbed it. She hung up and kissed Pierre again.

"Who was it?" He asked.
"A wrong number." She laughed as she pulled him down.
