I immediately wiped away the tears and moved over to a place where he couldn't see me. My phone buzzed. It was Q.

"Hey you okay?"

"Yea I'm fine."

"What's wrong, come on. Tell me."

"Fine but I don't feel like texting."

"Meet me in front of your house."

"Ok."

I looked in the mirror and fixed myself up a bit and then went into my front yard. Q was just leaving his house. He came up to me.

"Now can you tell me?" he smiled

"My dad has been working ever since we moved here, my mom just told me he's going to be working 7 times a week. I'm never going to be able to spend time with him." I said

"Aw it's tough having parents who work so much."

"Yea." I looked down, suddenly I felt his hand lift my chin up and he looked me in the eyes.

"It's going to be ok. I'm here for you whenever you are bored we can hang out."

"Thanks Brian."

"Of course, anything for a loving fan." He hugged me, it was warm and it felt right. I didn't want to let go but I had to.

"So I'm gonna go back. Don't cry please, I hate seeing girls cry."

"Okay." I walked back inside

"That boy is really charming isn't he?" My mom joked while setting up the table

"You have no idea." I sat down and ate some of her lassagna

"Do you like him? I know he's your favorite joker."

"Yea."

"Well just saying if you ever want to date him, you have my blessing."

I smiled the biggest smile ever but it went away when I realized he wouldn't want to date me.

"What's wrong?" my mom asked

"He doesn't like me that way." I finished my lassagna

"Maybe he does Zoey."

"He doesn't show it really."

"Boys are weird that way."

"Thanks for the lasagna. Love you."

"Love you too."

I went back upstairs to my room and sat down on my computer. I decided to go on tumblr. I reblogged so many love posts, I think I am in love actually. Man it sucks. My phone buzzed again. It was Q.

"There's a carnival tomorrow, wanna go with me and Sal?" he asked

"Sure."

"I'll knock on your door when we are about to leave, Sal is sleeping over tonight."

"Alright thanks."

I went downstairs and told my mom, then I went back upstairs and started to text Alex.

"Hey so I'm going to the carnival tomorrow with Q and Sal." I said

"You are so lucky, I think Q might actually like you." she said

"You're funny. But anyway, I hope we can become like the bestest of friends."

"He better not replace me or I will come after you." she said

"Don't worry, you are definitely irreplaceable."

I turned my phone off, it was so dark outside. It's only 8. Could Alex be right? Q might like me? Oh my god I need to stop imagining these things, they get me sad because they will never happen. I'm just a lucky fan that's it. He probably is just being nice since I'm his neighbor. I went to the living room and started to watch tv.

"The curtains I ordered are already shipped." My mom said

"Oh okay." I said

"Do you want me to buy anything else for your room?"

"Hmm... Nah I'm good." I said

"Are you sure?" My mom asked

"Yea."

I stayed in the living room watching tv till 10. That's when my dad came home, I ran up to him and gave him a big hug.

"Woah, what's this for?" He asked

"Just because I miss you and I love you." I said

"Awe I love you too." He said

I went back upstairs and went to bed, there was nothing good on tv anyway.

When I woke up my mom had made some pancakes, she's always home because she doesn't have a job, she doesn't need one right now either.

"Good morning sweetie." My mom said

"Morning." I sat down and started eating

"When are you going to the carnival?"

"I'm not sure, I'm gonna get ready soon, just in case."

I ate quickly and then ran upstairs, I took a quick shower because I showered yesterday. I put on my black high waisted shorts and a tank top with a sweater over. I put on my converse and did my makeup. I threw my hair in a braid. I put my wallet and phone on my desk so I could grab them on the way out when he comes.

I looked through my window and saw Sal. He was helping Q get ready, aw he looked cute. Sal noticed me and waved, Q started acting all awkward. I stopped looking and put on some perfume. I took my wallet and phone and went downstairs and sat in the family room. I decided to read a little bit of And then there were none, I just realized that I finished it. What am I going to read now? I walked over to the bookshelf and took out the book If I stay, I really wanted to see the movie that was coming out soon. The door bell rang before I even read the first word. My mom opened it.

"Zoey! Come here." she yelled, I came to the door.

"Hi." I said

"Well have a good time." My mom said as she kissed me on the cheek

Sal, Q, and I got in Q's car. I sat up front.

"So what rides should we go on?" asked Sal

"All of them." I said

"Maybe not all." said Q

"Why are you scared?" I teased

"Ooooo." Sal said

"No but I just don't enjoy all the rides, some suck." said Q

"Haha sure buddy." said Sal

We arrived at the carnival, they had bracelets today. The first ride we went on was bumper cars. Q kept smashing into me. I kept bumping into Sal even on accident.

"Hey watch it ova here!" said Sal

"Sorry." I said

We went on almost every ride, So we decided to play some games and get food. Sal got a funnel cake and sat down near a table with me while Q tried to knock down pins with a ball. He took forever, finally I saw him coming over.

"Hey Zoey, this is for you." He handed me a panda bear

"Aw I love it. Thank you." I smiled

"That's cute." said Sal

It was getting dark, we spent like all day there.

"Zoey do you want the rest?" Sal said eating his second funnel cake

"Sure I'll take some." I ate some funnel cake and Q joined in.

"Let's get matching air brush tattooes!" said Sal

We walked over to the air brush station and each got a ying yang on our left wrist.

"Triplets!!" said Q

"Oh yeah!" I said. Q took a picture and posted it on Instagram and Twitter.

"Wait won't people wonder who the third person is?" asked Sal

"I'm slowly revealing Zoey, if you haven't noticed." said Q

"I'm just a very lucky fan. It's not a big deal." I said

"Yeah but people will get in your head and you will reveal info about where you live or something and then they will find us." said Q

"Right."

"Man I'm tired." said Sal yawning

"We should go." I said

"Wait I wanna go on the Ferris wheel, please!" said Q

We went on the Ferris wheel. Sal sat alone and I feel bad since Q was sitting with me. I accidentally touched Q's hand and I quickly pulled away.

"Are you okay?" He asked

"Yea, I feel bad that Sal's alone though." I said

"Eh he's fine."

I touched his hand again, but before I pulled away he grabbed it. I looked at him, he was already staring. I blushed. I was probably so red. I felt sparks inside me, I never wanted to let go of his hand. He smiled which killed me. The ride ended and he let go of my hand as we got off.

"Today was fun, let's do it again sometime but I don't like being alone." said Sal

"Aw." I gave him a quick hug

"I would be worried about the germs but that hug actually calmed me down." He said

"Alright let's get you home." Q said

Q drove me home and then went home himself with Sal. My mom was sitting at the kitchen counter.

"Hey baby how was it?" She asked

"Good." I smiled

"Did he win that for you?"

"Yeah. I love it." I said

"Did anything happen between you guys?" She asked

"We held hands but that's it."

"Oh wow he's a very slow guy, I see."

"Oh mom. Haha I love you."

I went upstairs and put the panda bear on my bed. Oh my god I cannot believe we held hands, it was magical. It was late, I fell asleep before my dad even got home. I was cuddling the Panda which I named Quinn.
