I got an invite, what the hell, I was shocked as I looked over the message thinking it might be some kind of joke. As it turned out, it was genuine and I was baffled about why someone would want me at the party. Either way I sent Avva a screenshot and she showed me that she had got one as well and this was getting odder. I knew that Avva would make me go regardless the problem was Lucy the invite doesn't say I can't have a plus one but nor does it say I can. Avva said there was no harm in trying to take her after all if we were invited to a super special party then was must be given some power over who we plan to have fun with. We talked about the party and the invites for a good hour before I decided to make some food as my mum wasn't home yet and she wouldn't be for a while.
I went to the kitchen to cook two servings of mac and cheese before I did my homework for the day and lay back on my bed. I wasn't tired but I closed my eyes to help me think for whatever reason Lucy popped into my head not sure why I mean I liked her but it was still new. My mum came home later and I told her that Lucy would be coming over Friday and that I had a party on Saturday. She was interested in meeting Lucy and told me to be safe at that party and I told her I would be before I headed off to bed.
"Soooo we going or what," Avva said clearly referring to the party as I got in her car.
"I feel like you would make me go regardless," I said as she started the ignition.
"Go where," Lisa said.
"We got invites to the VIP party on Saturday," I said.
"Wait for real ok one you have to go and two you are taking me with you as you plus one," Lisa said pointing at Avva.
"Of course babe I would never leave you hanging," Avva said kissing Lisa.
"So I guess I will have to take Lucy with me," I said.
"No duh that is what those in a relationship do," Lisa said.
"By the way have either of you figured out what you are going to do when you sleep together," I said.
"WHAT," Lisa said as Avva peacefully parked in the school parking lot.
"Well I am Avva's longest friend do I know how she operates," I said getting out.
"Don't waste your breath she only ever talks about it when we are alone," Avva said as we walked into the school.
"Then you think you can get me a recording of that," I said.
"Hummm I might be able to whip something up," Avva said.
"I hate both of you," Lisa said and we laughed.
I walked to my locker and as I put my books away Jennifer came to her locker for some reason she looked at me with anger. I wondered what I could have possibly done to offend her as we hadn't talked since our joint project. I was brought out of my thoughts by Lucy hugging me from behind she gave me a kiss on my cheek and Jennifer slammed her locker closed before walking off.
"What was that," Lucy asked.
"Who knows so I am guessing Avva told you," I said.
"And you are not wriggling your way out," Lucy said.
"I guess not," I said.
The rest of the day passed by as normally as can be expected a few other kids received invites to the party and I began to wonder who was throwing the party. The next day rolled around and this was the day my mother and Lucy would meet face to face not gonna lie I was worried. I was hoping that she would like Lucy as she hasn't exactly said she is okay with my sexuality yet or that she accepts it yet. I'm not saying that she wouldn't like Lucy I mean she is great but it's the fact that my mother hasn't said anything since I told her about Lucy.
"So on a scale of one to ten how nervous are you about this?" Lucy said as she drove us to my house.
"Ten being what," I asked.
"Ten being if this goes bad you are considering mass murder," Lucy said.
"6," I said as Lucy drove.
"Hey mum I'm back and I have Lucy with me," I said as we entered the house.
"Hi, it's a pleasure to meet you," Lucy said.
"Likewise," My mother said after eyeing Lucy up and down.
"So how was work," I said.
"Crazy we had one too many mental cases," My mothers said.
"Mental cases," Lucy said.
"My mother works in a hospital, particularly the emergence department," I said.
"Oh that must be difficult," Lucy said.
"Well like all jobs you have good days and bad days but yes it can take some getting used to," My mothers said.
"Well is there you would like to know about me," Lucy said as we all sat around the table.
"I would like to know what drew you to my daughter in the first place," My mother said.
"What kind of question is that I mean look at her your daughter is flawless," Lucy said and I couldn't help but blush.
"Does she make you happy," My mother asked.
"More than I could have imagined," Lucy said.
The next couple hours or so mainly consisted of Lucy and my mother asking questions about me and telling each other more than I would have liked to know. Once the two of them had finished Lucy went home I walked her to her car and before she got in I kissed her and wrapped my arms around her. She smiled into the kiss before breaking away and saying she couldn't wait to spend the party with me. It took her to say it but I realised she would basically be my date to the part tomorrow my first real date to the party to any party.
