"So tell me about yourself princess." His lips moved beautifully. Every time he spoke I got a shiver down my spine especially when he called me princess.

"Uh well, there's not really anything that great about me, my whole life has been planned by my parents since I was a little kid. When I graduate high school I'm off to Harvard, considering I already have been accepted. I could've started this year but I wanted to finish high school. Ever since I was born my parents wanted me to be a lawyer, but now that I'm old enough to know what I actually want to do, I know it's not being a lawyer."

"Well what is it you want to do?" He said giving me a cute smile.

"Well, I love photography. I just love being able to capture a small or big moment in time. It's like time stops and that small picture is all you have of that exact second. And looking back at pictures is like going back in time. But no matter what I say my parents won't let me peruse my dream. I've even tried getting them to let me have photography as my minor and law as my major but they won't budge." I sigh.

"Oh, I'm sorry that really sucks. You should be able to do what you want with your life. Why don't you just apply to other colleges and then when you're 18 just move out. They can't control you once you're 18." He suggests.

"Yea I've thought about that but I have a full ride to Harvard and I don't have any other way to pay for school." I said. "But enough about me, tell me about you."

He furrows his eyebrows and looks like he's thinking. "There's literally nothing interesting about me, there's nothing I'm extremely passionate about or anything. I enjoy music but I've never tried playing an instrument or even singing but I think it'd be cool to produce music. Ya know find small local bands and sign them, make people's dreams come true. That would be a great feeling."

"Then do it, you don't have anyone holding you back, go for it." I said smiling.

"You know what I think I will, you just helped me figure out what I want to do with my life." He laughed.

I flipped my hair and smiled, "you're welcome."

For whatever reason Cody just busted out laughing. "I haven't laughed this hard or smiled this much in a long time."

"Really? Why? That is, if you don't mind me asking." I sheepishly smiled and looked into his eyes.

"Uh well, I don't really have very many friends besides Angie and my other friend Matt but he moved awhile ago. And Angie's been busy with looking for schools and working so yea I've been on my own." He shrugs.

"Oh that sucks. But hey, now you've got me!" I said trying to cheer him up.

He smiled, "yea I guess I do now. Don't I?"

"Well it's gonna be kind of hard to get rid of me." I laughed.

"I'm glad we're friends now Tori."

I smiled and nodded, "me too."

"So, when do you want to do the whole...thing?" He asked not making eye contact.

"Well maybe Friday? There's a party at Steph's and we could meet up there." I suggest.

"Uh, parties aren't really my thing, there's way too many people and like every drink is spiked. They make me nervous." still not making eye contact.

"Ok then, no party. We could just hang out on Friday and do it then? Possibly your house since my parents are kinda strict." I chuckle.

"Yea that would work, uh just give me your number and I'll text you my address." He stuck out his hand.

I gave him my phone and took his. I put my number in and gave it back to him. "See you tomorrow." I said getting up.

He got up as well, "how about I walk you to your car princess?" He said offering me his hand.

"That would be nice," I said taking his hand and smiling.

We walk hand in hand to our cars. "Um, I totally forgot that my car is still at the school."

We both burst out laughing. "It's fine I'll just give you a ride back to the school." He said still laughing a bit.

During the car ride I could tell Cody was nervous because he was shaking his leg and tapping his fingers. I make a bold move and grab his hand and interlock our hands. I could see him visibly tense then relax. He stopped shaking his leg and everything.

"Here we are," he stopped the car, "now, how about I walk you to your car princess."

I laughed a bit, "that would be lovely." I went to get out of the car but he stopped me.

"Wait," he got out of the car and ran around to my side. He opened my door, "I may wear a lot of black but I am still a gentlemen." He laughed.

I laughed as well, " thank you sir."

"Always a pleasure m'lady." He bowed.

"As you," I courtesy.

We laugh and I walk to my car. Before getting in I waved and smiled. When I get in my car I let out a large breathe, I'm falling for him and I'm falling fast.
