Amelia met her mom's outside of the jail as she took a deep breath outside seeing snowflakes hit her nose as she shivered. Amelia walked as fast as she could to the car than climbed inside warming up. Terri smiled looking behind at Amelia saying,
"How was it?"
Amelia smiled replying,
"Better than I thought after her staying there a day. Brianna accepted the ring and letter, so now it is a waiting game for her to come home to us."
Terri and Brooke nodded as they drove off, heading back home so they could relax for a while since Amelia still had school work to complete. Amelia couldn't wait to tell Kyle and Kayla what is going on since them two got together they've been inseparable. Even though she could have texted them both she figured Kyle probably dragged Kayla to church and lunch also probably a movie.
Amelia took a deep breath saying,
"Mom, how long do you think Brianna is going to be in there?"
Brooke looked at Terri as she gave the okay then Brooke responded,
"Amelia sweetheart, since she almost murdered someone and did things she shouldn't have I would estimate five to ten years for not murdering Mia but attempting it is a big enough charge."
Amelia knew this is going to be a long wait to see what happens with Brianna. Amelia and her mom's arrived home around two o'clock so that way she could get started on her homework and be ready for bed by ten o'clock even though she wasn't ready to face school on Monday with Kyle and Kayla will probably support her through it all knowing that Brianna is in jail for all that she has done.
Amelia wanted nothing more than to be happy with someone she could love including for Brianna. She wasn't sure that she could wait five to ten years or longer for Brianna since she had a life outside of the jail. Even though her mother's have told her that they could make arrangements to where they could see each other until Brianna is moved to a Prison within the state but that could be a while since Brianna's sentence hasn't gone through yet.
Amelia ran downstairs to her mom's to see that they were cuddling on the couch watching "Blue is the Warmest Color", she came up behind the couch saying,
"Mom, I am having doubts about me and Brianna this is probably not a smart move since she could end up in prison for many years along with a very long parole, her sentence could be for as long as I am in my thirties or older. I want love with someone but waiting on her could be forever."
Terri made room for Amelia to sit on the couch in between them both as Brooke paused the movie than Terri replied,
"Sweetheart, these are your decisions not ours, we love you and we love Brianna just as much. It is up to you to decide what is best for you not what we decide even Gale and Leah will tell you that they aren't going to be upset if you leave Brianna again. I am sure Brianna has a lot going on with her new cell mates and such."
Amelia shook her head with tears streaming down responding,
"Why must life be so difficult on love and commitment? Momma, you loved mom long before seeing her again how did you handle anything when she married Monica?"
Brooke sighed hating when it came to discussing the past of her and Terri but with a teenager you don't get much of an option as she replied,
"Amelia, I had no choice your mother wanted love and I couldn't give it due to distance along with tackling health problems. When your mother got with Monica I was a complete wreck and couldn't handle the fact that she ditched me for some stuck up snob especially when she made me stop talking to Terri, she meant everything to me and I lost her."
Amelia knew this story by heart knowing that her mom suffered meant a lot more because Monica is a bitch just like Lavender and Rose, them two are very bad enough. Though dreaming as she might Brianna is in the hands of fate in more ways than one and clinging to one another is to much for them right now. So, she got off the couch looked at her mom's thanking them both and then ran upstairs to get another letter ready for Brianna to be flat out honest with her that with every challenge at this moment that she couldn't be with Brianna and that she had to find someone new until she's ready for Brianna.
After sending out the letter to Brianna, Amelia knew she had to move on there was no way she could wait for Brianna. Amelia, Kyle and Kayla always met at the bus stop since they only lived several houses apart from one another. Kayla smiled saying,
"Spill, how did it go with Brianna? Are you two officially together?"
Amelia shook her head replying,
"Kyle, Kayla...I saw Brianna on Sunday, yes we got together but after we got home I realized with her being in jail and soon prison it wouldn't be worth it, I can't wait for her forever and she doesn't need to stress over whether I cheat or what not while being in there. Brianna has to focus on herself before being with me or anyone else."
Kayla and Kyle hugged Amelia tightly as Kyle responded,
"It's okay, we knew it'd come to this. I hope you can find somebody worth your while even after High School because we graduate in three years and we still have to find Colleges to attend in the future plus stressing for prom."
Amelia just didn't know anyone she could cling to for the time being it wasn't like her mother's and aunt's they found each other out of luck and as adults in their early twenties. Though with her only being a freshmen it shouldn't be hard to find a girlfriend for the third time and at least she wouldn't pull a Brianna and date a older woman. So, after they got off the bus and headed into the school Kayla pulled Amelia to the side whispering,
"We have a new girl in our school or at least she looks new, she's very gorgeous in the crowd over there with the cheerleaders and jocks."
Amelia looked over at the crowd, sure enough there's this new girl with dark red hair with curls, green eyes, wearing red tank top and blue jean capri along with red low heels. She stood about five feet six inches, weighing ninety-three pounds as an estimate. The girl looked at Amelia and winked as Amelia's jaw dropped whispering back to Kayla,
"That redhead girl is jaw dropping gorgeous and she's very new here. I have to get her name and number."
Kayla punched Amelia on the shoulder whispering in return,
"Amelia, she's popular there is no way you can get her attention."
Soon as Kayla said that the crowd disappeared and the girl started coming over having Amelia go into panic mode as she fixed her hair an outfit which was a blue dress with flowers as the girl came up saying,
"Hey ladies, my name is Cecilia, I am from Seattle, Washington, this place is marvelous and everyone is super sweet. Anyways, who are you all?"
Kayla smiled replying,
"I am Kayla, this is Kyle on my left and Amelia on my right."
Cecilia smiled in return responding,
"Nice to meet you three, Amelia is it? Certainly it is what am I talking about...you seem to be the ring leader in this group, can I sit with you at lunch or we can hang out at the arcade later?"
Amelia blushed deeply as Kayla nudged her shoulder then Amelia replied,
"Sure, you can sit with us at lunch."
Cecilia shook her head then leaned over to Amelia's ear whispering,
"I know them two are a couple and your third wheel. I am wanting to sit with you alone babe. I saw you drooling at me earlier so I know you are into me as I am into you better than them snobby cheerleaders. So, I will see you at lunch."
Cecilia kissed her cheek than left as Kayla stared wide eyed saying,
"You got dibs on a girl, we just met...damn, it goes to show you who is into who."
Amelia touched her cheek with a furious blush unable to speak. Amelia couldn't believe Cecilia gave her a kiss on the cheek, she knew she'd find a girlfriend right away but first thing in the morning is more amazing.
Amelia got into the school rushing to her locker and when she got to her locker, putting in the combination, than opening it to see that she had a letter fall out as she opened it, it read,
Dearest Amelia,
You may not have heard of me being the geeky girl and such but I am Anastasia. The reason I am writing this letter is that my ex-girlfriend Cecilia is coming to this school and she will make a fool out of anyone including you. She slept with other girls when I was totally committed to her in Washington and now that she's moved here, I am warning every girl about her. So, please whatever you do don't fall for her tricks even the kiss on the cheek that is her most gullible way of getting any girl she wants.
Have a nice day.
Sincerely, Anastasia
So now it just became a confusion of what Cecilia could do to all these girls. Amelia went to the library to find Anastasia and sure enough every girl in the library surrounded Anastasia as she went to leave Cecilia came up behind her saying,
"What's all the commotion going on in the library?"
Amelia gave her sweet smile replying,
"Just a all girls sign up for library assistant, our librarian Mrs. Porter needs a few extra hands sorting out the books."
Cecilia rolled her eyes responding,
"Good thing I'm not a nerd like all of them."
Amelia took that offensive replying,
"There's nothing wrong with being a nerd Cecilia, you are very close minded and judgmental. Forget that lunch Cecilia, I'm not sitting with a judgmental girl."
Cecilia sighed heavily looking deep into Amelia's eyes responding,
"I am sorry it is just that I dated a nerd Anastasia she was into everything geeky from books to earthworms and it drove me nuts, I am not a nerd far from it. I am a Princess with everything girly from pink pillows to pink makeup the only thing that is red is my hair and some clothes. I am a spoiled brat according to chicks that I have dated, I have no friends because of it."
Amelia crossed her arms against her chest replying,
"Explains why Anastasia left you, I am glad she left you to be honest for a spoiled brat you have a lot of issues with people and their hobbies. All the girls even straight or bisexual are in there because of you, Anastasia is protecting every girl in this school from your selfish ways. Now, I know why I loved my first best friend and only girl in my life, she treated me with a respect unlike you."
Cecilia laughed letting everyone in the library know she was there including Anastasia staring wide eyed at both of them as she replied,
"Glad to know my popularity here has now faded but that's okay Amelia I will still make you mine since you're the only girl I want in this school. See you later, I am heading off to Geography."
Amelia turned around to see Anastasia and the crowd of girls stunned at what just happened as she couldn't speak so she ran down the hall to her first class which is English. Anastasia came up behind Amelia turning her around saying,
"You mean to tell me that out of all the girls in this school, she wants you."
Amelia had tears streaming down her face replying,
"Yes, and I just broke it off with Brianna because of her time in jail and soon to be prison. I didn't expect Cecilia to be that interested in me. Now, I feel like a bitch for pushing her away because of you two's history."
Anastasia couldn't believe it herself that Cecilia wanted commitment with Amelia.
