Wednesday, June 10th

*pulled a stunt with the woman she used to live with and got grounded for 24 hours hence no texts between us on the 11th.*

June 12th
Me I care about you.
Her :) i care about you too

Two hours later:
Her: can i stay the night with BestFriend tonight, please?
Me: Tell me why u want to stay overnight
Her: Just to hangout lol. her curfew is 930 tonight so i promise its not to stay out later. and her mom has some cloths that she wants us to go through plus shoes and purses
Her: If i do get to stay we will prolly come back home and tumble some more
Me: Where r u now?
Her: BestFriends right now we are about to go to the movies
Me: Who all is going?
Her: Me and BestFriend and my BoyFriend
Me: No, u cant stay the night. If u wanted to go out with BoyFriend, then u should have asked that. If Best Friend picks u up then she should b the one who u r with and brings u home.
Her: I will be with her i would have ridden back with her to cause Boyfriend has to be home early as well i promise BestFriend has to be home at 930 and no guys can come over past that time either. so we were just gonna watch a movie and then come straight back here and tumble in the basement for like 30 minutes

She was late coming home, brought here by BoyFriend not BestFriend, excuse was his vehicle was making funny noise maybe tearing up. They stood outside for 20 minutes talking. Rule is that in order to be counted as being home on time, you have to be inside the door. She knows this. Also she wasn't even with friend, went out to eat and to WalMart and supposedly to the movies yet couldn't remember what movie they watched. And the real kicker, the BoyFriend was staying overnight with his friend that lives only two houses down from the BestFriend, so that's the real reason she wanted to stay the night. I'm guessing she was planning on staying the night with the BoyFriend and not so much the BestFriend. She stayed home the next day but still had the gall to ask, at 8pm, to go out with some other boy I have yet to meet. Of course I said no but also let her know that she was being disrespectful. She wants to go live with her BestFriend and her parents, they love and want her. I said that I love and want her, she cried. Gotta try harder to push me away little girl, this ain't my first rodeo.
