"So what's your favorite movie?" James asked.
"Hmm, I have no favorite." I smiled.
"Really? There are so many great movies ever made and you don't have a favorite? I'm starting to think you're not human. I mean first you dislike cheese, then you're not that holy or religious as your whole family is, then you're telling me you don't have a favorite movie?!" He joked.
"Is it my fault i'm different? And hey! At least i'm not one of those pretentious bitches you see around school, right?" I laughed.
He also laughed while I was saying this, god he's cute.
"I have to say, you're one of a kind, Tessa."
"So I've been told."
"But going back to the movies, what's you're favorite genre?"
"Hmm, Sometimes I go for Horror, Romantic Comedies, Chick Flicks and stuff? Depends on my mood actually and who i'm watching with."
"Horror huh? What would you say if I invite you over to my house tonight and watch The Grudge or The Ring with me?"
"I'd love to, but I promised Jane i'll go to her house today."
James frowned. "Bummer. Can I tag along with you guys instead?"
Ohmygod. Is this guy even for real?!
"I-I uhm okay? Sure!" I exclaimed.
-
"You mean to say he just invited himself over then you said yes and went here straight?!" Jane said while were in her room, James was waiting downstairs in the Living Room.
"Yes? Is that bad? Sorry, Jane! I freaked out, I didnt know what to do! This is the first time I hung out with a guy other than Chase and if it'll make you better i'll tell him to go ho-"
Jane interrupted me and said "Home?! No! This is a situation where you don't let it go! *Let him go, rather." She corrected.
"So what now? What do we do?! What do I do?! This is the first time i'll hang with a guy in a friend's house, and I couldnt contain myself earlier at the park and now i'm just all-"
"Will you stop freaking out?" Jane said.
"Well, will you stop cutting me off?"
"Only if you stop talking so fast and telling me you're freaking out 'because blah blah blah'. Okay? Just, learn to live a little okay? Chill. I know its your first time and its okay, i'll be there with you, don't show youre all tensed and stop sweating! God, just act how you were with Chase okay? Be calm and be yourself. You got this."
Wow. Ok. That got me. Hard.
"Damn I'm lucky you're my best friend. Thank God you're always there for me."
"Damn right you are! And damn right I am, and enough with all the talking, get out there! Don't keep him waiting!" She said, pushing me out the door.
I walked out Jane's room and rushed downstairs as I found James sitting down the couch awkwardly. I laughed.
"Why are you sitting there so awkward?" I said, smiling.
"Well, I'm at your friend's house, who is a complete stranger to me, and both her parents just left and gave me the most awkward looks ever, so yeah. Did I answer your question?"
"Uhm. Oops, sorry, I'm really new to all these stuff and -- I mean sorry cuz -- Uh I wow this is awkward."
"Now why are you
acting all tensed?" He said, laughing.
"Uhhh, I left something upstairs cuz the uh be right back!" I said, rushing my way upstairs.
"Jane jane jane!!!!" I exclaimed when I entered her room.
"Haha, what?" She said.
"'Haha'?! No Jane this is not funny I don't find this funny at all, first I tried being chill and cool once I got downstairs then I started jumbling up my words, interrupting myself off, and omg I'm freaking out again!!" I said.
"Calm down, will you?!?"
"Please come with me downstairs, help me please I don't know what i'll do, i'll probably just stutter and make things awkward again."
"Okay okay! You owe me one."
"Great, okay, Starbucks, my treat tomorrow.
"Hah! Okay! Damn you should invite more boys over sometime......."
"Ha ha ha, no, lets go!!"
