Forever Loved

chapter 4

When we arrived, Mr. Smith was waiting in the driveway.

"You brought me to see Mr. Smith?"

"Mia it's fine he knows me personally. Maybe a little more about me than about himself. "

We got out of the car and walked up the driveway.

"Ahh, Ashley nice to see you again. Mia haven't seen you since school on Thursday. "

"Hi Mr Smith." I said.

"Hello."He said.

"Is there a problem Ashley?"

"No sir, we just came for a visit."

"Oh, how nice of you. " he smiled his usual smile.

"Mr. Smith, when's the baby gonna be born?"

"Fairly soon." He said.

He invited us in. Mia and I talked to him and his wife. His wife was very pregnant. And honestly, I thought she was gonna pop right then and there. She didn't thought, she still had a month to go. We asked if they knew if it was a boy or girl. They said that they wanted to be surprised so they didn't know. We also talked about school assignments and the driving test.

About 2 hours passed and Mia and I had to leave.

"Hey,uhh Mr. smith, we have to go."

"Okay. Did you drive here?"

"Yeah."

"By yourself?"

"Well yeah. You know how my dad is."

"Okay Ashley. Drive safe."

I nodded. I decided to keep it short,because if I didn't he would just keep talking until I left. Mia and I got in the car. I stared to pull away when I noticed Mrs. Smith having a limp to her walk. Maybe she was just trying to keep up with Mr. smith. Whatever the reason, I was kind of worried for her. Mia and I drove away. The car ride was silent.

"So...."

"What?"

She seemed mad that I said something.

"Umm nothing. Are you okay?"

"Yes, I'm fine!"

I figured I should shut up. We got back around 4:30.

"Hey, isn't that your mom?"

"Yes."

A short and simple answer. I could live with that. We got out if the car. Her mom said she didn't know where Mia went. Which was a lie. I walked in and ran to my room. Skipping every other step. I threw myself on my bed. I was to tired to close the door.

My dad knocked on the door, even though it was open.

"Hey!" he said

"Hi?"

"Do you want to tell me where you went?"

"Oh um dad, sorry I just went to Mr. Smiths."

"Oh"

He left. well then, I thought.

I got a text:

Jacob: hey, Ashley we need to talk.

Me: about what there's nothing i have to say to you

Jacob: look, I'm sorry about that.

Me: I guess it's fine

Jacob: okay. But seriously I'm really sorry.

Me: like I said it's fine.

Jacob: hey what if I took you on a date?

Me: I might go.

Jacob: how's next Friday for lunch?

Me:sorry I can't.

Jacob: why?

Me: I'm too busy...

Jacob: doing what?

Me: okay you got me.

Jacob:next Friday?

Me: defiantly.

I put down my phone. Jacob was pretty cute, and I was kinda glad I was going to eat lunch with the cutest guy at school. I re-typed his name in my phone as: ❤Jacob❤

Wait. Are we technically going out now? The question tumbled around in my brain. I'd been out with plenty of guys but I never really had this happen to me this way. Usually I just get asked out.
