Spring Break

4

Opening my eyes, I look around for the source of the noise that woke me up from my sleep.

Wait, this isn't our room, where am I? and where's Chrissy? I feel something, no someone, move beside me and look over, now I remember where I am and who I'm with. I'm in Kelley's room, in her bed, the morning rays shine through the drapes and light her face, God, she's beautiful, even if she's currently sleeping in a pool of drool. I can't help myself and reach over to move some stray hairs away from her face.

Kelley's eyes open and she smiles at me. "Hey."

"Morning."

"Not that I mind waking up to your cute face, but what are you still doing here?"

"I'm guessing I fell asleep here and or Chrissy didn't come and get me like she said that she would. I should probably get back in case Maria's parents notice I'm not there and question it."

Kelley nods and I lean over to kiss her gently on the lips. "Thank you for yesterday, I had fun."

She smiles at me, "I did too. Would you be interested in checking out an arcade with me today? I can borrow a car and drive us as it's a bit of a hike to get there. We could even grab a bite afterwards if you like."

I look at her before it clicks in, "Are you like actually asking me out?"

Kelley chuckles, "I'm not like asking, I am asking you out. Go out with me, Jordyn; I promise it'll be fun. Well, what do you think?" She smiles at me and I know I'm done for.

I nod, "Okay. I should be going, now."

"Hold up, Canada; I don't have your digits yet, so how am I supposed to confirm our plans?"

I give her my number with a promise that she'll be in contact soon to arrange the details of our date. Our date, wow, I'm going out on a date! Oh my God, what am I going to wear? Making my way inside next door, I do my best to be quiet as a mouse as I climb the stairs and let myself into the bedroom, only to find Chrissy sitting on the bed with a book.

"Did you have a good night with Kelley?"

"You were supposed to come and get me."

"I take it that you haven't looked in the group chat, have you?"

I shake my head, "No. why?"

Chrissy smiles before turning her phone so I can see the picture she took of Kelley and I asleep together. "I'm sorry, but you were so cute I just couldn't resist."

"I really like her, Chris."

Chrissy nods, "I know; it's been really nice to see you smiling and laughing with someone."

"Can you send me that picture?"

"Yeah. So, what happened with the two of you last night? I saw you dancing, or attempting to dance."

"We had a couple of drinks, danced, snuggled and after y'all abandoned me, we went back to her house and watched a movie."

"And? C'mon, Joey, we've known each other since we were 4 years old; I know there's more to it then just that, so spill."

I blush and look at the floor, "We kissed and she asked me to go out with her today to the arcade and to eat."

"Oh my God, you kissed? Your first kiss. How was it? I need to know everything."

Maria and Maggie enter the room at the exact moment and overhear what's said.

"Did you say kiss? As in Jordy's first kiss?"
