Not Him...Please
Chapter 1

“FINE! GET OUT SEE! WHAT I CARE!”
He was outside and heading for his car. Candy was yelling at him from the window of her apartment.
“FINE YOU KNOW WHAT? I WILL GO JUST SO I WONT BE ABLE TO SPEND EVEN MORE TIME WITH YOU!”
Everything was screwing up for Candy and her relationship with Cody. She shut the window hard then locked the front door and walked into her bedroom and started crying. She thought of how good her day was going and then what completely messed it up.
*Flash Back*
Candy woke up suddenly feeling her long time boyfriend’s lips on her forehead. She looked up at him and smiled. He smiled back and left for work. Candy looked at her clock and she knew she only had 2 more hours to sleep before she had to get up.
“Shit, shit, shit.” Candy was rushing around. She overslept…again. “Mili, come girl, I’ll take you out fast.” Her pure white husky ran over and wagged her tail happily.
Candy hurried out with Mili and just as fast came back in. Then she grabbed her bag and locked the door and ran to her car.

“You’re 20 minutes late.” Candy’s boss said while staring darkly back at her.
“I know, it won’t happen again.”
“That’s what you said last time. One more and I’m going to do something about it.” With that her boss walked away.
“…Jackass.”
Candy ran to the studio room. Everyone was sitting and waiting for her.
“It’s about time.” Paul said and walked over to give Candy a hug.
“Ya, I’m sorry. I overslept again.”
The guys laughed believing very well that’s what probably happened. The rest of the band gave her a hug. If your wondering Candy works with a band called Good Charlotte, she mixed their music when they were in the studio and worked with sound and light effects when they were on tour. So of course Candy was pretty close with the band.
The guys were recording some songs that they might put on their up coming album. All day Candy and GC worked on all the songs. They laughed when someone would screw up by their voice cracking or playing the wrong chord so it still was fun.
By the end of the day they were all really tired. They were all going to head for home.
“Call me later guys.” Candy yelled at them. They waved at her as she started driving off back home.
Candy walked in and saw Cody sitting on the couch watching TV. Candy threw her things on the counter top and went to go feed Mili.
“Why didn’t you tell me you’d be late?” Candy poured the dog food into Mili’s bowl and looked over towards Cody.
“I didn’t know I would be late.” Which was true.
“Your never home you know? You’re either at the studio or on tour with the guys. You never just want to hang with me anymore.”
“Well it’s not like I’m the only one not trying. I don’t see you taking time off.” Cody turned off the TV and walked over to Candy.
“Well at least I’m home more often so I can pay bills, take care of YOUR dog and make OUR diner.”
“I can’t help what work does to me.”
“Well even on the weekend your to busy for me. Not that I don’t have a life myself, but I at least want my love life back.”
Candy was getting frustrated and sat down at the table. Mili walked away knowing there was tension building in the room.
“Then you can have it back seeing as I’m not good enough for it.”
“What does that mean? You want me to look somewhere else?”
“Well seeing as my life is really hectic right now and you don’t get enough lovin’, might as well move on.” Cody looked at Candy with angry eyes.
“Fine. You know what I will go looking for someone else then.”Cody started grabbing all his stuff and putting it into boxes and grabbing his suitcase and dumping clothes in it. Candy was yelling at him and helping him at the same time so he’d be out of her apartment faster.
*End Flash Back*
Make up your mind and I’ll make up mine
Don’t worry about me I’ll be fine
Those words that you said to me, why wasn’t I listening?
I wish I hadn’t met you at all I started thinking
I’ll sit back and relax and wait for the morning
We’ll wake up we’ll make up and do this for the last time (x2)
If we break up we’ll wind up losing for the far miles so
Wake up lets make up and do this for the last time
Make up your mind and I’ll make up mine
Don’t worry about me I’ll be fine
The last time you yelled at me I swore that I heard you say
I wish I hadn’t met you at all I started thinking
I’ll sit back and relax and wait for the morning
When will we make up? Will we break up?
Lets wake up, lets wake up, lets wake
Make up your mind and I’ll make up mine
Don’t worry about me I’ll be fine
Those words that you said to me, why wasn’t I listening?
I wish I hadn’t met you at all I started thinking
We’ll wake up we’ll make up and do this for the last time (x2)
If we break up we’ll wind up losing for the far miles so
Wake up lets make up
And do this for the last time (x3)
If we break up we’ll wind up losing for the far miles
Lets wake up lets make up
