young & in love

bite me

We walked over to the house. I try to relax.
It's just a dinner Brit. Get it together. Doesn't mean anything else. Kian may not even be into you.
"Hey Britt, you coming?" asks Taylor
"I'm right behind you". I reply, wishing I never said it.
I walk into the house, following Taylor. It's very nice compared to our house. Then again, they live here so they can have a nice house. We are just here for the summer.
"Welcome Everyone!" says JC. He smiles at Taylor, which makes me feel really uncomfortable and that I should just stop third wheeling.
"Hey guys! Ready for some dinner?", Connor asks, being a polite host.
"Starving!" Katie says, not hesitating to go into the kitchen.
I stop in my tracks, thinking if I could just ditch this lame dinner. I miss my parents, and I'm kinda tired. Yep that's a good excuse. I might as well walk into the kitchen to see what they are cooking.
I walk in, only to see Katie and JC making out. Wow. Well okay. I walk about before they see me. I'm not sure what's going on here, but I guess they are hitting it off well. They just met though. I go and try to find Taylor outside, to try to see if she could get me out of this dinner. I walk out of the house, and see her right away, holding hands with Connor. What is going on here? Has everyone fallen under this love spell? I haven't seen Martha yet. I think she went upstairs to Ricky's room..... I'll just talk to her later. I bet she's busy.
I walk around outside, discovering my surroundings. Their backyard is really nice. A pool, a beautiful scenery. I walk into the kitchen using the backdoor. JC and Katie are now making dinner together, thank the lord. I see Kian sitting at the table, entertaining JC. As I walk in, he stars at me again. He narrows his eyes, scanning my body from my head to my toes. I roll my eyes. Two can play this game. "What are we having?" Taylor says, breaking the stare.
" Enchiladas with rice and beans". says JC, doing a cocky grin.
" I'm looking forward to it" I say, staring back at Kian, who looks clueless. What is his deal? "Kian and Brittney, can you set out the silverware?" JC asked.
"I would love to" Kian says, making a smile at me. I take the knives, and set them out. Kian gets really close to me, and reaches over me, instead of walking around to the spot. I move, only to make him stumble, but not fall. I grin, making sure he knows whose boss. After setting them out, I walk away cheerfully, almost skipping.
