Teenage Love...
By Samantha Allison

It had been another LONG and terrible day, and all Aliza had wanted was to come inside and take a shower, then curl up next to the fire with a cup of hot chocolate and a good book, but her mom had a different idea.
“Please take your sister and brother to the park for at least half an hour!” her mom said.
“Mom, no! I want to go take a shower and relax!”
“Please?!”
“Mom, please don’t make me.”
“Fine... go take a shower and “relax”, don’t help me out.”
“Thank you!”
Aliza went to her room and grabbed a pair of pajamas from her dresser. As she was walking to the bathroom to take a very LONG hot shower, she thought back on the day. First, there was a new boy in her class. Caden. He was to DIE for. He had long blonde hair that covered his beautiful blue eyes that lit up when he smiled. She was head over heels and she wasn’t sure he felt quite the same way.
As she walked towards the shower to turn it on, she noticed just how cold she actually was. She undressed and grabbed a towel, the warm tile rubbing against her freezing feet. As she stepped into the shower she could already feel the radiation of the warm water taking over her freezing body. She didn’t know how long she stood there, but the next thing she knew her mom was knocking on her door, saying that someone was there to see her. She turned off the water, no longer cold, and dried off with her towel. As she climbed into her clothes, pulled her hair into a messy bun, and applied her makeup, she wondered who was here to see her. She heard her mom offer someone a soda, and a snack, but didn’t recognize the replying voice. She grabbed her car keys and her cell phone and walked towards the kitchen. When she walked in, she saw someone with blonde hair that covered his beautiful blue eyes that lit up when he smiled. No... It couldn’t be. Why on Earth would Caden be here?!
“Hey.” He said when he realized she had walked into the room.
“Hey.” She replied. “Let’s go for a car ride and we can talk.”
“Okay.”
As she walked towards her car with Caden right beside her, she couldn’t help but wonder why he was here. What did he want? Maybe he wanted her to “talk” to one of her friends for him.
She climbed into her white Chevy, and watched as Caden climbed into the seat beside her. She wondered where she would take him, what could she possibly do to make him like her. She pulled out of the driveway and stopped.
“Where do you want to go?” she asked.
“We could go have dinner, I’ll pay. I need to tell you something.”
As she drove in the direction of Vincennes, she wondered what he wanted to tell her. If it was so important, then why couldn’t he have called her or texted her?
She pulled into Applebee’s, and made sure Caden liked the place. They walked into Applebee’s and chose a booth by the entrance. They ordered their food and drinks and waited. It was silent for a few moments.
“So, what did you need to tell me?” she asked.
“I don’t know how to say this, but... I like you. A lot. You’re the prettiest girl I’ve ever seen and I wasn’t sure if you felt the same way, but I had to know.”
Her heart froze. What should she say? What was she supposed to say?
“Uhm... I don’t know what to say.” She replied.
“Just tell me if you feel the same way.’
“Yes... I do.”
“So, will you date me?”
“Yes.”
“Write down your number and I will text you.”
“K.”

They ate in silence from that point on. As she climbed into her car afterwards she thought about what had just happened. She was so happy her heart was racing. She was halfway home when her phone buzzed, and she picked it up to read the message. It was from Caden.
“Hey baby. (:”
“Hey. (:”
“Don’t text when you drive. I would kill myself if you died reading a text I sent.”
“Haha. Okay. Text you when I get home.”
“K.”

As Aliza walked into the house freezing again, and wanting another hot shower, she wondered if she really did feel the same way... maybe, her and Caden couldn’t be, would never be. As she picked up her phone to text him and end things, her phone buzzed, once again it was from Caden.
“Aliza, I love you, I don’t know what I could possibly ever do without you... your beautiful in every single way... if you ever left me... I don’t know what I would do. You’re the reason I keep telling myself that life is going to happen, that I do have a chance in this world... you’re the reason I drag myself out of bed every morning, so I can come and see you. Baby, your amazing in every way... your heart, body, mind, and soul are the beautiful parts that make you, you. If beauty were starlight, you would shine from a billion light years away. Your eyes remind me of stars twinkling ever so brightly. Please Aliza... don’t ever leave me.”
From that moment on, Aliza was in love with Caden Devine. They did everything together, just like best friends.
On their one-year anniversary, Aliza faced her worst fears...
Aliza woke up that morning feeling amazing... she and Caden had been together for one whole year! It was hard to believe that it had been one year since she stood in her driveway and read his text. Aliza dragged herself out of bed, took a shower, and ate breakfast. Aliza thought about texting Caden to tell him she was coming over, but she didn’t, she decided to surprise him. When she pulled into his driveway, she noticed an unfamiliar car. Suddenly a thought popped into her head... Could Caden, cheat on her? No. She dismissed the thought completely. It was probably just his mom’s boyfriend. As Aliza approached the door, she saw the door start to open, and out walked her amazing and beautiful boyfriend.

“Aliza?! What... what… what are you doing here?!”
“I thought maybe you wanted to see me on our one-year anniversary?”
“Oh, baby of course I do, but you need to leave. Please, go”
“What? Why?! I thought we were going to spend...”

What Aliza saw next stopped her in mid sentence. It was another girl walking out of his house. She walked up to Caden and kissed him on the cheek, and then, took his hand in hers.
“Who’s she?!” the girl asked.
“I’m his girlfriend actually, and apparently, I’m the girlfriend who just got cheated on.”

Aliza started to walk towards her car, tears blurring her eyes... her heart... broken.
“Aliza... wait!” she heard Caden shouting after her.
She turned and said,
“Caden... just... stop. You’ve explained a lot of things, but you can’t explain this one. You know, I actually thought you loved me... for once, I thought I had found the guy I would marry... but you know what, you’re a jerk. We had it all, and you threw it away. You threw away our relationship Caden, like it was GARBAGE!”
Then and there she knew she had to stop talking... she wanted to run to him, and have him hold her, and tell her that it wasn’t true. The girl was just another one of his mom’s friends. She knew it couldn’t be, and then she thought back to the day she stood in her driveway, and read his text. The text that he had poured out his heart in.

“Aliza... Please, don’t go!”
“I don’t want to... Caden, but apparently, you want to spend OUR one-year anniversary with someone else... someone who’s not me.”
“Aliza, please, you don’t understand. It’s not what you think!”
“No, Caden. It’s exactly what I think.”
She walked towards her car, and opened the driver’s side door. Hot tears streaming down her face. She wasn’t even sure she could drive home. Before she stepped into the car, she turned and saw Caden sitting on his front porch steps, crying. Then, she thought maybe it wasn’t true. She closed her car door, and walked up the pathway. The girl had left a long time ago. She kneeled so Caden could see her face.
“Aliza baby, please, I love you, you’re my one and only. I could never cheat on you.”
“Caden, I want to believe you. Trust me, I want you to hold me and tell me that it’s not true, that all this, is just a bad dream.”
“Aliza, I swear to you… that was not at all what you thought it was.”
“Then, let’s forget all this Caden. I don’t even want you to explain, but it’s over. I can’t date someone that I thought cheated on me. Not for awhile anyways.”
“Aliza, baby, please. I’ll die without you. I don’t know what I’ll do.”
They were both crying then.
“At least, let me give you our one-year anniversary present.”
“Caden, please, don’t do this to me.”
“Aliza, please. Don’t leave me. Please.”
“How can I not Caden?”
“Believe me.”
“Okay, I believe you, and I’ll stay with you, but if something like this ever happens again, it’ll be over, forever.”
“Okay.”
“Now come on, we’ve got the lake waiting for us.” She said smiling.
They spent the day at the lake, and Aliza drove home, she was certain that Caden, would never, could never, cheat on her.
She got home and went up to her room to take a shower. When she got upstairs, she found balloons, and a note sitting on her bed, with some chocolates on the side. She walked over to where they were sitting, and read the note.
Hey baby… I just wanted to say I’m sorry for everything that happened today. I love you. Happy Anniversary!
Caden.


Aliza smiled as she read the note. She taped her balloons to the window beside her bed, and then went into the bathroom to take a shower. When she got into the bathroom, she decided she was going to take a hot bath instead. She ran the water, and turned on her floor warmers, she also pressed the steam button on her bathtub. She walked into her room and grabbed her best dress, some high heels, underwear, a bra, her makeup, and hair products, along with a towel, and walked into the bathroom. After her bath, she had planned on going to a fancy restaurant with Caden for their anniversary, and then he was taking her somewhere special, a surprise place, as he called it.
When she got out of the tub, she drained the water, got dressed, and put on her shoes, and then she did her makeup, and scrunched her bouncy curls, so that they looked like cute little springs, she hair sprayed, and she was done. She walked downstairs, and put her car keys, wallet, and Caden’s present in her hand held purse, she grabbed her HTC, (her cell phone), and walked outside. She got a text from Caden, and it said to watch for a limo. A limo?! Since when did he have the money to rent a limo?! The limo pulled up, and she jumped inside. When
