Tiffany's POV
I woke up with Jo running in and jumping on my bed "Get off me!" I groan
"Guess who's here?" I roll over
"I don't care?"
"Oh you will because Mum told me to wake you or she'd send him up to wake you?!"
"Hang on, WHAT!" I sat up and looked at Jo smiling at me
"Yep, Rusty's downstairs waiting for you and Mum said you were still getting your beauty sleep. He laughed and said that was cute. Cute! He said it was cute so really he thinks you're cute!" I blush at the thought of him walking in while I had bed hair still and was still sleepy
"Jo, I can't have him up here. I'm a mess!"
"So admit it, you do like him?" she laughs as she hits it across the side of the head with a pillow
"JO!" I groan at her
"Get up. Mum said 5 minutes!" I jump up and go to my wardrobe and quickly get changed into my camo gear with my bikini underneath, since we were going mud larking we could get dirty or wet?
I look at myself in the mirror and smile. I turn and look at my butt! What I think I have a cute one, it's one of my best features, besides my smile and crystal blue eyes. Which were sparkling back at me? Jo looks at me from the bed and smiles "You look gorgeous!" I smile
"Really?"
"Yes but do something about that mess" she points to my hair and I run over to my dresser and start to brush out the knots
"I'll braid it" Jo says coming over and taking over
"Do you're makeup!"
"Makeup to go out and play in the mud?
"Just a soft touch, like a natural look" I nod knowing what she meant.
Jo was finished and I just finished my gloss when the door opened wider and there stood Rusty. Red flushed cheeks. He looks around and I gasp at my now messy room. I jump up and stand in front of him trying to hide the mess. He smirks "Nice room!" I grab his arm and pull him away
"Yeah, I love it. It's way better than my old room plus I have balcony I can go out and read on but I'm waiting for the new lounge setting my Mum bought so I can use it?" I look at him as he stops to look at me.
Man I just sounded like a snotty little kid "Look, I just asked her to get a chair or something so I could go out and sit to read. I like reading" he smiles
"Okay, if that what the swing out front is for too?" I nod and he smiles some more
"Cool"
"Come on" I grab him and pulled him downstairs.
Mum looks up from the newspaper and says "Oh so you finally wanted to show your presence!" I pouted at her
"Funny Mum" she smiled and went back to reading
"Is Jo not going?" she asks from behind the paper
"Oh No, she's learning how to skate with Gabe. Rusty's brother" she glances over the paper
"Really?" she asks and I nod as I bite down on an apple I just grabbed from the bench.
"Well as long as you girls can be contacted and are home on time" she looks at Rusty, I quickly check and my phone and ear phones are in my pocket "Make sure you look after my baby won't you Rusty and have her home by 9pm okay?"
"Daphne, she'll be safe with me. I promise" he walks over to me, snaking his hand around my waist and I jump slightly at his touch.
Mum looks quickly but then looks away with a smile on her face "Have fun but not too much fun, if you know what I mean!"
"Mum! Stop it now. We're friends going to hang out okay?"
"Whatever you say darling. Be careful and I'll see you tonight?"
"Okay bye" Rusty walks me over to the door and we walk out, he's car already in the driveway
"Get in" he says as he lets me go.
We jump in and the R'n'B music blares through his speakers. I nod to the music as he starts up the car and we head out. I see Jo at the door waving so I give her a wave back. I'm excited back I don't want Rusty to know so I just sit there quietly.
