The Truth About Forever-Chap20

The party is going way better than it was planned to go. Much better than I honestly thought it would be when all the madness came. All the people are happy and having a good time. Some people even say that it is one of best parties they have ever been to. This is good, because it takes alot of pressure off of Maci's mother and that makes it alot easier on Maci. I know what she means by that, I hate when my mother is stressed, she was like that the whole first half of summer. This is because that's when they decided I could come to school in Armour. Maci couldn't help herself, her mind just kept running back to Wes. She knew he would be coming her anytime asking if they needed any help and she couldn't wait for this. But on the bad side, so was Jason. And Maci is not excited to see him. I wouldn't want to either he sounds like a controlling jerk!

The Truth About Forever-Chapter19

Caroline wouldn’t talk to her mother for a full week. That’s why Maci and her mom were so surprised when she showed up in the front yard unloading angels from a truck. These angels were Wes’s every single one of them was just amazing. It hurt Maci a little more and more every time she looked at one. She missed Wes so much. After many people drove by saying it was such a great idea to put the angels out for the party, Caroline decided it was ok for her mom to use them and for herself to stay another night to help.  That next morning Maci awoke to wind going crazy outside. And when she looked out the window Wes was in her driveway. She ran outside to talk to him. The conversation didn’t end well. Maci didn’t let Wes talk much. Just kept going on how everything is the way it should be. Him back with Becky and her with Jason. When Wes asked her if that’s the way she wanted it and Maci replied with a yes even though that wasn’t true. Wes left right after that furious. It was more and more apparent that the party wouldn’t be held outside. Not with the wind and then soon the rain. So they began to get the house ready moving furniture around to make room.

The Truth About Forever-Chapter18

Maci was extremely worried about her mother. She had been working longer hours and not sleeping or eating at all. All she was concerned about was that everything at the big party she was throwing for her business ran smoothly. This came apparent one day when Caroline showed up. Caroline was so happy, the house at the beach was finally finished. She wanted Maci and their mom to stay at it that night with her. Of course their mother refused saying there was just too much work. This stung a bit to Caroline, but she thought they were still spending a whole week there in August. That was until her mother crushed that idea to. The reason was it was the day after the huge party and that’s when she’d be the busiest. Caroline was above furious!  When Maci’s mother got home later that night, Maci was shocked when she came in and asked for Delia’s number. She needed a caterer. To Maci’s surprise, Delia said yes.

The Truth About Forever-Chapter17

Maci is now fully into what sounds like house arrest. All she does is work, yoga, and studying. Like any teenager, she hates every single minute of it. The day she later thought would be one of the best days of her summer, when she finally heard from Jason. But it was different and she really didn't care to much about what he had to say. Just kept thinking about Wes. They talked alittle on the phone, but they never got into the deep conversations they normally got into. It's safe to say they missed each other. Maci diobeyed the rules one night to go see Wes. They met at a parking lot but it didn't end well. Maci left without saying goodbye because Wes seemed distanced. She later realized she didn't want to end it like that and went to The Waffle House. There she found him, but not alone, with Becky. Maci right there knew that what happened between them was gone.

The Truth About Forever-Chapter16

Going to the hospital in the ambulance, because Delila's water broke, brought back so many terrifying memories Maci had when her dad died of the heartattack and she had to be in the ambulance. Wes was worried about her, constantly asking if she was ok. All this happened at a terrible time, because Maci was supposed to meet her mom at a party at 6, and the time was just flying by. Everything changed though when Maci saw Delila's baby Avery. She was happy, but she ran out of the room to cry saying she needed to call her mom. A little while later Wes comes looking for her, he asks one more time if she was ok, and she couldn't hold back the tears anymore. She ran to him and just cried. After she calmed down Maci started to worry that it was to much and she scared him off, but it doesn't seem that way. Once they said there goodbyes Maci went to the party to find her mother furious with her. When they got home she layed it on her with so many rules. Maci had to quit her job and work with her, she could no longer see her friends, and she must be in by 8. Maci hated this!

The Truth About Forever-Chapter 15

Wes was so impressed on how Maci quit he kept bringing it up. Maci didn't think it was that awesome. All she could think of was how mad her mother and Jason would be when they found out. The catering team is getting more and more organized as the days go on. Finding that they had extra room in the van, which never happens! It was so organized that Delia found herself wishing they had at least alittle bit of chaos. She found it when her water broke right in front of the very happy customer.

The Truth About Forever-Chapter 14

The next morning Maci found her mother to be in a terrible mood from what happened the night before. Maci tried to take to her mother about her father during the ride to work, but Maci's mother just wouldn't let that happen and pushed the idea of it way aside. Once Maci got to work she became nervous knowing she'd see Jason and she would tell him that it's over. But that's not how it happened. Wes showed up asking if Maci could get out of the library job to help them get ready for a party tonight. Her coworkers wouldn't let that happen, so Maci quit in dramatic fashion. Jumping of the counter of the office, and replying "good" when her coworkers said "if you leave don't come back!" All of this shocked Wes.

The Truth About Forever-Chapter 13

The house by the ocean is coming along, and it's almost done. Caroline says it should completed even before they go and spend the week down there. One night after a party that Wish hosted, Maci did something she thought she never would. She invited the whole crew to come in and watch something Bert really wanted to see. She did this mostly because she thought her mother was gone on business for the night. After awhile Maci learned that this wasn't the case when she found her mother standing in the hallway looking right at them with a shocked look on her face. Maci could tell that she really wasn't that happy about this because she said that after the show is over they have to leave. It got even worse when Maci's mother walked in on Maci and Wes talking about when Wes was in jail. After this she pulled her aside again and freaked out saying she doesn't want Maci hanging out with them outside of work. She ended it by saying really loud that Jason was coming home for the weekend.

The Truth About Forever-Chapter 12

Bert in is need of alot of help from Maci for a party he's going to. Well it's not that big of a deal, he just doesn't know what to wear or anything of the sort. Once he's gone, Maci decides to go to a party with Wes. Once they get there Maci isn't surprised to find Kristy there. When Kristy does come she freaks out saying she knew Wes and Maci had a thing. Maci explains they are just friends, but she's forced to prove it by hanging out with a cocky jock a night. Who towards then end when Maci is a little drunk tries to make her stay. Wes doesn't like this and he takes Maci out of the party and they leave. On the way home they talk about Maci's mother and how Maci can never talk to her about anything

The Truth About Forever-Chapter 11

Maci is spending the night at Kristy's house, which means they really won't be sleeping. But Maci decides she doesn't want to go. So she just stays at the house alone. But that's not how it turns out. She goes out to there garden to look around and Wes scares her half to death. To say he's sorry, Wes takes Maci to a waffle resturant that he always likes to go to. They continue the game of truth. When Maci comes home late that next morning she is surprised to find her mom sitting on the couch. She says she needs to talk to Maci because she's concerned. She found out that Maci and Jason broke up, but Maci reasures her that everything is fine. Maci goes to her room to find a present on her bed and a letter from Caroline. In the the letter Caroline wrote that this was a present she found from there dad in the closet at the house by the ocean. Maci hides it away saying she waited this long, she can wait a little longer.

The Truth About Forever-Chapter 10

Caroline had been working so hard so that when they go to the house by the beach it would look perfect. And the date was set to go on August 8th. Only a few days after Jason gets back. On to a knew subjuct, actually my favorite in the book Wes and Maci. They've become friends now. Ever since the van ran out of gas and they played the game Truth. And they are still playing the game. Whenever they're by each other. Mostly alone they play it. Maci noticed whenever they went to one of the parties Kristy just made them go to, she'd always find herself off to the side talking with Wes. This is where she found out they had even more in common, Wes was on a break also with a girl who was in jail for pot.

The Truth About Forever- Chapter 9

Maci is on the job in the beginning of Chapter 9. They are at a party and Jason's parents are there. This makes Maci incredibly nervous and doesn't want to step foot out of the kitchen. This hope of hers soon comes crashing down when she has to go clean up a stain on the carpet and one after another pretty much they come. First comes his mother, asking if she works here, and when she says yes she makes sure that Maci is still working at the library and taking it as seriously as it needs to be taken. Once that is over her comes his dad. This is where it gets awkard. He tells Maci the reason Jason said he wanted a break was so he knew she wasn't keeping him from his goals. This hurt Maci alot. After the job was done and they could leave Maci and Wes take the Wish van. Before they knew it they were stranded on a diserted road out in the middle of no where because they ran out of gas. So on the way to a gas station they begin playing the game truth. And this is how a good friendship was made.

The Truth About Foever-Chapter 8

Caroline has arrived to start the planning of the remodeling of the cabin down by the ocean. It's hard for Maci and her mother, but Maci would rather have it this way then it being torn down and not being there at all anymore. She finds this out when her mother makes the comment that she thought it would just be the easier way to go because of the fact that the foundation is going to fall through sometime. After they are pretty much done with going over plans Caroline decides she's going to make supper for them. Caroline drags Maci along to the farmers market. To Maci's surprise she finds Wes there selling Angels. Caroline loves them and goes crazy for them and in the end rights a pretty big check out for some. But the good thing is Maci also leaves with a angel, but it's special because Wes just gave it to her.

My Colony

With being in charge of a whole colonly it's a very stressful label on your shoulders. I think I could handle it, but there is the possibility that I would buckle under pressure. I would be in charge of making sure that everything runs smoothly. I would have to make sure everyone has enough to eat, drink, set up some sort of law so it's not choatic, have someone running those laws to make sure that they are being done, and finally to make sure that everyone is at least kind of happy and not depressed.  It is a hard thing to be in charge of someone's life. All of my fallowers lifes pretty much would rest on my shoulders. If someone would die, I think I would blame myself, because I would always question myself on what I could have done differently. So now that I'm thinking about it, I don't think I would be the best one to be in charge of my own colony. I do better when I'm told what to do and not have to be the one telling others what to do.It's just to much pressure.

The Truth About Forever-Chapter 7

After Maci agress to go out with Kristy and the rest of the gang, Kristy makes sure that Maci looks great. She puts Maci in cloths she never in her life would she ever think about putting on by her own free will. She always does her hair curly, nothing like it's ever been before. Maci gets nervous and tries to leave, but Kristy gets her to stay. At the party it's not the scene Maci's used to because there is alchoal. Maci sees the affect of what can happen when someone's drunk, because one of the girls she used to run with comes to her and starts talking about her dad passing away. Maci hates this, because she likes how for once somebody she's with doesn't know what happened. To her surprise it doesn't make them think any differently of her. Later the girls start talking about Jason and how he's a total jerk to Maci and that she should just move on and forget about him. At the end of the book we start to see that Maci is starting to fall for Wes.

The Truth About Forever-Chapter 6

In chapter 6 Wes tries to teach Maci how to get a good gotchya by jumping out of a coat closet right in front of Bert. It scared him half to death. The deep part of this chapter happened when Maci came home one day to find her dad's truck parked out front of her house. This made her very nervous since she knew he didn't come back from the dead. She goes into her house and up to her room to find Caroline laying on her bed. So later Maci, Caroline, and there mother go out to lunch to disguse the house out by the ocean. There mother is not pleased with Caroline wanting to fix up the beach house knowing it would be so hard. Caroline insists it would help and that it would be what her father wanted. So they agree to fix up the house and spend a weedend there when it's all done in August. After this Maci relizes that she needs to live her life more so after one night of working when Kristy asks her to come out with the crew she finally says yes, unlike she ususally does.

The Truth About Forever-Chaper 5

In chapter 5, Maci tries to reply to the email Jason sends saying that they want a break. It turns out that she can't think of anything she really says so she doesn't say anything. After this Delia calls and asks if she can come out and help her make sandwitches. Maci accepts. On her way out there she gets stuck in a huge hole and needs Wes to come out and help. After she gets out Wes tells her that the reason they don't fill it is because Delia thinks sometimes things just shouldn't be fixed. Wes definatly disagrees with this. While Maci  and Delia are making the sandwitches they talk about Wes and Bert's mother and how it's hard with her being gone. During this Maci doesn't say anything about her dad.

The Truth About Forever- Chapter 4

And we're on to chapter 4 now. After Maci meets the girls she decides to fallow them up a huge hill to were Delia was starting to get things as organized as possible. When she goes up there she asks if it is possible if the offer still stands about the job and Delia says yes. Her first night is very hectic and she learns all the ropes. The night ends with seeing Bert and Wes. It's Bert's 16 birthday and they come with a old ambulance which will now be Berts car. Wow! Wouldn't want that as my first car. But Bert is extatic about. They offer Maci to come drive along with them, but she refuses.

The Truth About Forever-Chapter 3

In chapter three Maci starts her new job covering for Jason at the library. This really doesn't end well. The other girls there seem to look down on Maci and they don't let her do her job by helping the costomers. Her week gets worse when she receives a email from Jason saying that he wants to take a break because he doesn't know if he likes the seriousness of there relationship. This comes right after a email she sent him and ended it with "I love you." Maci is crushed, so she goes and takes a drive. While driving she comes to the same van the catered her mothers party, the same one that offered her a job. So she fallows it. When they finally stops she meets up with Monica (a girl she already kind of met at her mom's party) and a new girl named Kristy.

The Truth About Forever-Chapter 2

Nothing to exciting happened in Chapter 2 of The Truth About Forever. Maci's mother is throwing a party for her clients and to try and get new clients. She thinks there's no better way to get business disigning a house then showing hers off. Towards the end of the Chapter Maci has to go in a check on the cater's, little did she know she would be helping them cater her own mother's party. This is where she meets Wes and Bert. She first's meets Wes when he scares her from the bushes thinking it was Bert. By the time the parties over the manger says Maci could have a job with them, but she says no. I think that'll change though.

The Truth About Forever- Chap. 1

In chapter one in the book The Truth About Forever, we meet Maci a teenager who is dating Jason. But the sad thing is the only main relationship she has with someone is Jason. So when Jason leaves for what she calls Brain Camp she starts to think about how she won't have anything to do in her summer. Later in this chapter it talks about how Maci is only known for being the one who found her father dead outside of her house. She came outside to go running with him, but soon found a stranger pumping on his chest. Before his death Maci tells his love of buying things from infomercials. Anytime something new came on tv, he would quickly buy it. So when Maci had the chance to take something before it was sold at her mothers rummage sale she found the box of all the useless stuff her father bought, she quickly choice that.
