What It's Like to be Popular?

Chapter 7

   As soon as I was about to leave I wanted to clear up some stuff with my dad. So I grabbed my phone and dialed his number.
   "Hello?"
   "Hi sweetheart, what's up?"
   "Why do I have to sleep over?"
   "Because baby, you just have to."
   "Where are you?"
   "On a work trip."
   "How long will you be gone?"
   "Not till later tomorrow night."
   "Oh."
   "Sweetie I have to go I'm sorry but I love you so much don't forget that bye."
   "Love you too dad bye."
I walked over with a small bag so I didn't crowd up the space.

                       *knock*

   I knocked twice and then Bri opened the door. She looked super exited.

   "Hi Kayla!"
   "Hello, what's up"
   "Nothing I'm just really happy you could make it! Follow me I'll show you my room!"

   She looked like she was in 8th or 9th grade but I never saw her at school so I could never be sure.
  
   "I haven't unpacked completely so I hope you don't mind I tried to move all the other boxes to just one corner of the room"
  
   Sure enough there was about 4 boxes in the left corner of her room. We talked for a while and I found out she was in 8th grade so she didn't know I was popular at my school great! That amazing so we can be real friends. I went to school early because my parents thought it would make me smarter so I'm a year younger than all my friends. Which is only one but now I'm older than the other one! Only by a year. We talked some more then she said something unforgettable.

   "My older brother Peter always talks about you he says he likes you a lot!" She squealed.

   I blushed so hard! Then Peter walked in avoiding eye contact with me and said dinner was ready. His voice is so handsome I just realized.

   When Bri and I walked downstairs I could smell it it smelled so good! Steak and green beans and mashed potatoes. Was that homemade GRAVY! Yes! I sat down a the empty chair and I just so happened to be next to Peter he was a year older than me but in my grade. I feel like if I wasn't as popular as I am and I would just be there. I feel as if he were popular but a loser.  And cute but really ugly. My stomach felt weird not like I was going to throw up but something else. I tried not to scarf down the food so fast but it was really hard not to. Mrs. Medico was a great chef and Mr. Medico as well!

   We all got onto the couch and Peter sat next to me. An obvious seat right! We watched the movie Jurassic World. It was super cool! While grabbing a piece of popcorn our hands touched. Me and Peter's hands touched! It was so cool and it felt weird but good! Why? I don't know! We locked eyes for a few seconds then I saw Bri's hand waving in front of my face. Peter and I snapped out of it but I quietly scooted over and made sure no one noticed. I continued eating popcorn but it happened again! This time we both scooted until our hips were touching. That's when a romantic scene in the movie came on. I payed my head on his shoulder and he started to grab my hand until Bri paused the movie and screamed,
   "PEE BREAK!!!" Every one left except for me and Peter we realized what was happening. We looked at each other and laughed. He has a nice laugh.
  
   "Um... Well that escalated quickly!"
OH my GOODNESS! He's so cute!

   "Hahahahahahaha LOL yea that did. Um why did you do that?"
His response was so adorable.
   "Um well since we accidentally touched like 3 times I thought it was a match made in heaven or something... I'm sorry if you felt uncomfortable."
   "Oh don't get me wrong I'm fine and I thought it was cute and all I was only asking."

   As soon as he started leaning in for a kiss and I was to a little Bri rushed out and screamed once more.

   "PEE BREAK DONE!"
Then they all say down. We watched the rest of the movie. And while me and Peter watched we held hands. It was very romantic. As Bri said she was getting ready for bed Peter and I talked once more. He said I was supposed to sleep where I wanted to but Bri really wanted me to sleep in her room. Then he says we can text until she passes out and when she wakes up in the afternoon which will be around 3:00! He said I can sneak into his room and watch some movies. We will already be up and ready by then so I got exited.

   When Bri was snoring I snuck into Peter's room. He said put in the movie Hunger Games.

   "I've actually never seen this I've been told it's really gory!"
   "If it is for you I'll hold you so you're safe. But to be honest it's not."
   He's sooo cute!
   "Ok that's cool"
   I jumped on his bed and we watched everyone of the Hinger Games movies except for the last one it wasn't out yet so we couldn't. I fell asleep on his shoulder. I could feel him pick me up and lay me down on his bed like a princess. I think I love Peter!
