Leah's POV

Me and peanut been talking for a couple of months and I think he's a nice guy. He always compliments me about the way I looked. He always tell never use make up because pretty girls like me don't need them. Today Peanut had texted me.

Peanut- Wassup lil shawt.
Me- Non just chillin. Wassup.
Peanut- Same. Well....since you aren't busy I was wondering if I could take you out tonight?
Me- Uhhhhh......sure. Where you wanna go?
Peanut- Wherever you wanna go ma.
Me- Well...I don't really know where to eat.
Peanut- Listen. Ion care if we eat at McDonald's. ANYWHERE you wanna go.
Me- Lol. Well than ig McDonald's.
Peanut- OK I'll pick you up at 7:45.
Me- Kay Kay.
Peanut- Ight lil shaaaawty.

While I was getting ready I played my R&B music. Boy when I tell you I go all the way with that kind of music. I be having Bobby Brown, Tamar Braxton, Toni Braxton, Michael Jackson, Fantasia, SWV, Xscape, Luther Vandross, Anita Baker, Whodini, Chaka Khan, Whitney Houston, Alicia Keys, TLC, Keyshia Cole, Aaliyah, all of them. But the one song that played in my head was Chrisette Michelle Couple of Forever's. The moment Peanut ask me out that song played in my head. It was 7:30 and I was almost ready. I just had to put on my perfume and lip gloss. I don't wear a lot of make-up. I don't think it's necessary. It was 7:45 and and I heard a cat door close. I hear a knock on my door and it was Peanut. I opened the door and Peanut stared at me for 10 seconds.

Peanut: Daang lil shawty. You never cease to amaze me with your good looks.

Me: Whatever (I said blushing and turning my head).

Peanut: I'm for real. You the most beautiful girl I ever seen.

Me: And you're the finest boy I ever met.

Peanut: You ready?

Me: Yea, whenever you are.

Peanut: Ight mayne let's kick it.

When he walks down the steps I see this raw looking car. He has the 2016 white BMW. I love BMW's. Especially the ones with leather seats. So we hopped in the BMW and went on to McDonald's. We arrive at McDonald's and Darrell opens my door for me like a gentleman. We walked up to the door and he opens it for me. I start blushing. Before we walk up to the counter he told me I can get anything I wanted the menu. We walked up to the cashier and it was young ages woman.

Cashier: Hi welcome to McDonald's can I.....take your order. (She looked at Darrell with a Oh My Gawwwwwd He is fine look).

Peanut: Ummmmm....can I get a number one with a sweet tea.

Cashier: Yes..you..can.

I was getting very disgusted by this lil thot in front of me.

Me: Ummmmm. Can I get a number one with with a large iced mocha.

Cashier: Yea. (She gives me a stank look while Darrell wasn't looking).

We get our food and we go find a seat. Darrell had picked a booth for us to sit in. I forgot to get some sauce and he forgot the napkins. So I went up to the counter and he went to the fountains where the napkins were.

Cashier: Can I help you? (She said disgusted and looking at Darrell).

Me: Ummmmm....(I looked at the menu) can I get.... (looked back her still staring Darrell down) your thirsty, thoty behind to stop looking at of what you wish was yours. How much is that? A punch in the face or me snagging you by your no name brand weave, thought it was Brazilian having behind and bang your face against the cash register. You pick. (She breathed in and out like she was gone do something.) Didn't think so. And can I have some barbeque sauce please? (She gave the sauce rolling her eyes at me). Yo hot garbage, stank draws, hot tamale breath, bottom lip smell like cat fish, Lebron James edge having, ape body having behind have a nice night. Oh and try not to stand with your legs open. We do not need this restaurant smelling like the flamingos at SeaWorld.

I walked away back to the booth with and we sat and ate our food. This boy was so interested in me, he was asking me a million questions. But I was ok with it. As long as I had my food I was good.

Peanut: What's your favorite color?

Me: Blue

Peanut: That's my favorite color too. I wanna guess some of things you like. OK you like BMW's because when you saw mines, you bout died, you like light skins like me, you like love movies, the sport you are most interested in is basketball, you like being a fashionista, and the music you listen to is hip-hop, rap, R&B, and gospel.

Me: Oh wow. You're exactly right. How did you know.

Peanut: Looks give away everything ma. (He winked at me).

We were done with our food and we left to go home. On the way home Darrell kept looking at me and I'd put my head down.

Peanut: Ma, don't put head it makes you look sad. You look beautiful with your head up. (He said lifting my head up with his index finger)

Me: OK. (I said nervously).

We arrived at my house and Darrell once again opens the for me. He walks me up the stairs to my porch.

Peanut: I had fun tonight. I hope we can do this some other time.

Me: So did I and I look forward to going out again.

We stared at each other for a minute. Darrell leaned close and closer and closer and then pecked me on my lips. I felt a tingle in my stomach as if I had butterflies.

Peanut: Goodnight lil shawty.

Me: Goodnight.

I got the keys to the door and opened it. Once I closed the door behind me, i went to see if my mom was still sleep which she was, then I went to my room, closed the door, jumped on my bed and screamed in my pillow.

Me: I JUST HAD MY FIRST KISS!!!!!

That was the best night I ever had and I hope me and Darrell stay together. I wonder how everybody else's night is going.
