Tiffany's POV
We get back and I clear my throat, pulling my hand away. We go to get out when I grab Rusty's arm "Rusty?" I say and he looks at me "Yeah?"
"Look I don't know if I'm sending the right signals out but I'm not looking for a boyfriend right now. I'm just looking for some good friends to hang with" I look at him and he smirks
"I know Tiffany. I just want what you do and that's us being friends?....for now" he keeps smirking like his normal self plus he whispered the last part and although I really didn't like the way he flirts, it was flattering but it was better than him getting too close to me thinking.
I smiled "Cool. So we're cool?" I ask and he nods but I see him wink at me and I blush slightly before we both get out of his car.
I start to walk over the road to my house and turn to Rusty "Rusty!" he looks around from his porch
"Yeah" he flicks his head up as he says it
"Thank you" I say and we both smile.
That was it no other words, it was said and done. I walked home and walked in to find Mum cooking over the hot stove again.
Jo and I decided to have movie night in my room as it was a bigger and we could leave the balcony doors open for the breeze to come in. We had dinner and then ran up with the movies we wanted like, the notebook, the vow and Titanic. Mum made us a huge bowl of popcorn and I grabbed some cans of drink and chips. We were set the notebook went in first and I hit the lights, running back to my bed and jumping next to Jo, making the popcorn spill a little "Tiffany!" she screamed and then we started laughing as we both ate the popcorn from the bed.
We watched the movie and at the end of it we were both balling our eyes out. Luckily I had tissues on my desk and I threw them to her after grabbing a handful for myself. I blew my nose and changed the movie, as I laid back down Jo looked at me "Why were you crying today?" I look at her
"Seriously?" I shrug
"I don't know Jo. Rusty took me to this really cool hang out and it made me realise how much I missed hanging with my girls" this started me crying again and Jo came over hugging me
"It's okay Tiff, things will get better once we go back to school and meet new friends?!"
"But I'm not like you? I can't just start talking to people like you" I whine
"But you made friends with Rusty and his friends, they'll look after you?" I laugh
"Sure as long as they can get into my pants!" we both laugh at the thought.
Yes, I'm a virgin and Yes, I am waiting for the right guy and No, I haven't found him yet. I thought I had but in the end he turned out to be a douche like everyone other guy.
"Tiff, you stress too much. Those guys like you, yeah maybe some of them just want to get into your pants but I know of 2 that don't!" I looked at her and she laughs
"Don't act like you weren't interested in Drake today. I saw the way you both looked at each other and the body language and you know for a fact Rusty wants your sexy body" she motions towards me and we laugh
"Seriously Tiff, just relax and enjoy life all you care about if good grades and pleasing Mum and Dad. You can still do that and have fun so live a little. Now this is the fresh start you need so enjoy it?!" I look up at the ceiling and think.
She's right I am uptight and only care about getting straight A's and pleasing my parents and I really enjoyed hanging with Rusty today. I felt alive for once and I didn't have to care about how I looked or what I said because he didn't care. So maybe I could hang with him and his friends but I'd be speaking to them about quitting smoking or not doing it near me!
