"TEEN ROMANCE" ~ Malachi Barton

Chapter - 15

AT MALACHIS HOUSE
GIOVANNAS POV:

We walked upstairs to Malachis room, and took a seat on his bed. "What are you doing tomorrow?" He asks, putting down his backpack on the floor.

"I'm auditioning for a show and then dress shopping with Keira, how about you" I respond.

"What audition?" Malachi continues.

"Summer Fling." I state and his face lights up.

"No way! I'm auditioning too! Who are you auditioning for?" He asks, sitting up taller.

"Chloe!" I say excitedly.

"I'm auditioning for Michael!" He exclaims.

"No way! That's crazy! We should practice lines together!" I get even more excited as the conversation continue.

Malachi and I go over a bunch of lines and we practice what we are saying in the audition, considering we actually have to show up somewhere and not to an online one, we would be in the waiting room for a while. So, I'm glad Malachi would be there.

We finish our homework, practice lines and go over a bunch of stuff about the winter dance and Johnnys party afterwards and how we would get there because both of us are 15 and we can't drive.

"Keira has her license she can drive us!"

"Yayy!" He drags like a little girl in a candy store.

The night goes on and he asks me a question that I've been avoiding. "How's your eating?" He asks, I freeze and tense up. I really don't like talking about that, "wha...what?" I look at the ground and Malachi sense my discomfort.

"I just want to know if your eating better." He explains in different wording.

"Fine. Good." I clear my throat, "can we change the subject? How about we go to that fair a few blocks away?"

"No. I can not do roller coasters." Malachi states, closing down the topic.

"Well that sucks because I really feel like going on one," I sigh.

"I'll make a deal with you. Okay?" Malachi starts, I listen intently at what he has to say.

"If you let me pick what you eat for dinner, I'll go to the fair with you." He states, putting the offer on the table. I hesitate and think for a moment, before nodding and agreeing to his deal.

"Promise?" He holds out his pinky.
"I promise" I lock pinky's with him and we start to get ready to go. Malachi gets off the couch and walks over to his mom in the kitchen, "hey mom, Giovanna and I are going to that carnival or whatever a few blocks away, we will be back around 9."

His mom nods and tells us to have fun.

We leave the house and we start walking to the carnival, it's around a mile walk so it will take us around 20 minutes. I feel a breeze and shiver a bit, "shit I forgot my sweatshirt and your house." I say around 15 minutes in to the walk.

"Do you want mine?" Malachi asks.

"No no it's fine." I brush it off and keep walking.

Once we get to the fair we see many different roller coasters and we even see a slingshot ride! (If you don't know what it is please look it up the videos are hilarious!)
