Falling For You (#wattys2016)

Chapt 5 Coffee Beans

I woke up the next morning, realizing that I had slept in till almost 11:30 and began to freak out.
"Shit! I have to meet David in twenty minutes"! I said to myself as I quickly hopped out of bed and threw on a pair of my cozy black leggings.

Frantically, I rummaged through my closet in search of a decent top. After about ten minutes I of searching, I gave up on trying to look good and grabbed an old burgundy, V-neck top that I wore back in the ninth grade. I paired it with my nice black camisole and decided that this outfit would have to do. My hair was a complete mess but I didn't have much time to fix it so I decided to just throw it up into a frizzy mess of a ponytail, and prey that the elastic wouldn't snap.

When I was finally ready, I met David outside of my house. His hair was flopped messily onto his forehead. He wore a dark green polo shirt, that was just tight enough so you could see his well defined abs.
"Hey" I said as I gave a small wave.

David smiled, crookedly as he stared down at my top. "I remember that" he laughed.

I felt my face go hot as I rolled my eyes embarrassed by the fact that he would probably judge me for wearing clothes from the ninth grade.
"That was so long ago, how do you remember it"?

"How could I not"? He replied, winking teasingly at me.

"Shut up" I laughed, embarrassed by the fact that even in the ninth grade, David had been checking me out. What a pig, I thought to myself. I felt stupid realizing that a small part of me may have enjoyed knowing that David had checked me out even back then. I didn't have one single curve on me until the beginning of tenth grade.

Suddenly I was snapped out of my thoughts when I felt David's hand graze across my shoulder and travel down to around my waist. He pulled my right side into his left and smiled. I felt I cheeks go hot and tried not to imagine how red I probably was.
"D-David" I stuttered. I felt my body go stiff and I peered up at him, "what are you doing?"

The corners of David's mouth curved up and he raised his eyebrows, "Zo, this is going to be a special date"

What did he mean by special...if he was expecting anything more than a kiss than he was crazy! Not that he'd even get a kiss...I mean...

"My lady..." He started bringing me out of my thoughts once again, "you shall enter the David love mobile"

I snorted unattractively "Real classy...The David Love Mobile?" I barely managed to ask though my laughter.

David shrugged, "I can show you why it's called that after we go out if you'd like" he winked as he leaned his elbow on the David love mobile.

I shook my head vigorously, "I'm good. I'm pretty sure that this car deserves a break from all of the poor girls you play"

David crossed his arms and an annoyed expression crossed his face. I immediately regretted my harsh words but after a second realized that it was probably acceptable under our circumstances.

"Ha-ha, very funny...for one second just forget about the stupid mistakes I've made. I regret them all my princess"

I almost gagged when he called my princess but somehow I was able to stop myself and instead put a fake smile on my face. David was acting like a good guy and I decided that he deserved one date. I wanted things to work out with David but I didn't know if I'd ever be able to forgive him. He had made a huge mistake and I didn't believe that he had changed.
