♥︎♡♥︎ KEIRA ♡♥︎♡

{Sunday, June 7, 2009}

LOCKING THE FRONT DOOR BEHIND himself, Colby and I go to meet Hayden and Natasha on the boardwalk. "Hey, guys. Do you think we can go somewhere that involves us sitting down?" I ask when we meet them at the boardwalk. "My leg is in a hella lot of pain today."

"Yeah."

We finally settle on meeting at East Point Mall. Colby pushes me in the wheelchair while we walk around. "So, Natasha, how are things going with you and Hayden?" I ask as we walk.

"Great. How are things going with you and Colby?"

"Natasha, did you have to ask a question like that?" Colby asks, groaning in a joking tone. "Things with Keira and I are great."

I watch as Hayden gives Colby a quick wink and I giggle under my breath. Before we go to get lunch, we quickly stop in Shirley's Sketches. (Okay, it was more like the boys' went in and Natasha stood outside with me.)

After almost thirty minutes, the boys step out. "What took y'all so long?" Natasha whines.

"Sorry, babe," Hayden apologizes. "Colby wanted to get this done."

"What?" I ask, peering at him worriedly.

"Aww, baby, don't look so freaking worried. I just my eyebrow pierced."

"Let me see," I reply, turning my attention to Colby.

He crouches down in front of me to show me. "Oh, cool," I reply sarcastically. "You're taking it out before our wedding."

He smiles in a playful gesture as he nods. "Colby Trent, I'm serious," I acknowledge.

He stands up a little bit and kisses my forehead before we walk to the food court. Once we have our food, we go to sit down. Colby sits beside me while Natasha and Hayden sit beside each other; on the other side of the table. I peer at Colby and he smiles at me. Rolling my eyes, I take my thumb and index finger and flick his temple. "Ow! What was that for?" he asks, rubbing his temple where I'd just flicked him.

"For piercing your damn eyebrow," I answer with a sour look.

"I'll let you pierce whatever you want," he responds, "if you let me keep the eyebrow piercing."

I groan. "Fine."

When we're done eating in the food court, Colby takes us back to Shirley's Sketches and that's where I get my nose pierced.

After Shirley's Sketches, we go to the photo booth. Hayden sits to the right, with Natasha sitting in his lap, and Colby sits on the left, with me sitting in his lap. Hayden kisses Natasha's right cheek and Colby kisses my left cheek. The machine counts down from three before the camera snaps. The boys quickly move out, leaving Natasha and I in there by ourselves.

I pretend like I'm gasping and I cover my mouth while Natasha puts her hands on either side of her face and makes an 'O' shape with her mouth before the camera snaps. The boys quickly come back in and stand in the center. Natasha stands on the right side of Hayden and I stand on the left side of Colby. We lean in and kiss their cheeks for the third picture. For the fourth one, Colby steps out while Natasha kissed Hayden's right cheek and I kiss his left cheek. For the fifth one, Hayden and Colby switch, and Natasha kisses his right cheek and I kiss his cheek. For the sixth picture, Colby puts his left arm on my shoulders and his right arm on Natasha's shoulders. Hayden and Colby then trade places once more; Hayden puts his arms on either one of our shoulders. After that picture is taken, we step out of the booth and I grab the copies of the pictures. There were two copies, so I pass one to Natasha for her and Hayden to look at. We she sees the pictures, she starts giggling. "These are hilarious."
