I waved at Damien. He smiled and waved back. As I got closer I saw that he was wearing a red polo shirt that read ‘I LIKE IT LIKE THAT’ in white, blue, and black. The t-shirt hugged him way too much; I could tell every outline of his chest. He was wearing jeans and white sneakers.

“Like what you see?” He asked when I reached him.

“Yeah, that shirt is pretty intense” I told him and he smiled.

“You also look very…um…what’s that word?”

“Schoolish?” I suggested.

“I was going to say sexual but school-ish works too”

“There is nothing sexual about this uniform” I said looking down at my plaid blue skirt, white socks and converse.

“Whatever you say”

“Why aren’t you school?” I asked.

“I graduated high school about 20 months ago” He began to walk and I followed.

“Oh, so let me rephrase that. Why are you here?”

“I came to get you. You left your clothing at my house last night” I faced palm myself.

“Oh, well thanks…” He smiled at me.

“Yeah, I was also wondering if you would accompany somewhere.”

“Where?”

“Can’t tell you”

“I hate surprises” My mother was to blame for that.

“Oh, then we’re going to get ice cream”

“DUDE! You’re old as hell and want to go eat ice cream?” He nodded. Then he realized what I said.

“Hey! I’m not that old! I just turned 20” He said.

“Nice to know…. That you will be leaving your twenties soon” I stuck my tongue out at him.

“You’re going to join me one day”

“UGH! Don’t remind me” I said.

“When’s your birthday?” He asked.

“Day after tomorrow.” I said and he began laughing.

I smacked him and said “Don’t laugh.”

“I’m laughing at how you said it. But that’s good. Don’t you get like extra gifts or something?”
