I smiled big then started up the stairs.
" Hey how was the date?" my mom asked me. " Is he nice?"
I was still in my little daydream about the kiss so I just gave her a simple answer.
" Yeah>" I said then walked slowly up to my room. I threw the door open and kicked off my heels which were killing my feet. I sat at my desk and put my jewelry that I never wore away. I wiped my make up off then sat back in the chair and just thought. I mainly just thought about the date and how well it went and how I really underestimated Jacob. I was just getting deep into my thoughts when I heard my door creak open. Malcolm put his head around the door checking to make sure I was in there. I smiled then nodded, letting him know that he could enter. He stepped in and stood a good amount away from me with his hands in his pockets. He leaned against the wall and it looked as if he was pondering what he should say to me.
" So, How was it?" he finally asked. He crossed his arms over his chest and waited.
" It was nice." I said. " He's a really nice guy."
" So, you like him?" he asked.
I shrugged. " I guess, he's ok."
" Well, good." he said. I got up and laid down on my bed. He came over and sat next to me. " I only want you to be safe."
" Since when do you care about my safety?" I asked dumbfounded by the statement.
" Since forever." he said. " I've always cared about you, I just rarely show it."
" Yeah, I know what you mean." I said. I sat up and stared at him. He just smiled lightly and I could tell he was keeping something from me.
" What's wrong? Do you want to tell me something?" I asked.
" No I'm just happy your happy." he said. I could tell he was lying but I didn't know why.
" Ok." I said. " You should probably get home. It's late."
" Right." he said getting up. He stood in front of me. Then he leaned down and wrapped his arms around my waist giving me a hug. I was really surprised. Usually he just waved then left. Why is he hugging me? I dropped the thought for the moment and just hugged him back. He pulled away, smiled, then walked out my bedroom door. I stood there still surprised at what he just did, but I just shook it off and got ready for bed.

All that night I kept thinking about Jacob. Sweet, generous, charming, cute, great smile. Everything that most girls could ask for in a guy. But I'm not most girls. I'm not usually into the sweet kind charming guys who can get any girl he wants. That kind of guy is actually at the bottom of my list. But tonight, Jacob changed my point of view a little. I guess you can say he showed a side of him that said. " Hey I know you dig me and I dig you more than most girls I've dated." And I liked that. Then there's Malcolm. Wait. Why am I questioning about Malcolm? We're best friends nothing more!
Right?

" I'm such an idiot!" Malcolm screamed out to the world as he headed home. " I could never show my true feelings towards Alex. Now that this Jacob guy is in my way! What am I gonna do?" He pressed his head and hands up against a wall, then turned around and sank down to his knees. " Why does this have to be so difficult? I've known Alex my whole life, and I know she doesn't think of me more than just a friend. But, I have to tell her. Just to get it out there. I don't care about the Jacob guy or any guy. I just have to tell her.
That I'm falling for her.

Sorry it was short
