"What are you doing here Danny?" I ask. "Just having dinner with my date." he said with a smirk plastered to his face as a girl came and stood beside him with a huge smile on her face. She had on an extremely short black strapless dress that barely covered anything. Slut much? "Well how nice for you." I say, kind of annoyed by the smirk on his face. "Oh don't be jealous Candy. You can still say yes to my offer." I scoffed, " No way in hell and what do I have to be jealous of?" I asked. "Me." the girl standing beside him said. I laughed at that and she smirked at me. "And why would I be jealous of you?" "Because I'm out on a date with the hottest guy in town while you're out here waiting on your date who is probably hooking up with some waitress inside." "Number one, I'm not on a date and number two, I could easily be in your position right now because he asked me out today but I'm too much of a lady to except his offer because I didn't want to come home tonight with an STD." I say with a smile on my face. Both of their smirks vanish and before they can say anything, dad walks out of the restaurant and I step inside the car. I look out the window and see the girl yelling at Danny but he isn't paying any attention to her, he's staring at me.
Once we got home, I went straight to my room and took a shower. I was so tired. It was 8:00 by the time we got home and I was whipped. I usually don't go to bed till about 12:00 but I was so not up for that tonight. I was in the shower for about 15 minutes and then got out and wrapped a towel around my body. I walked over to my dresser and put on a pair of black booty shorts and a white tank top and then put my hair in a ponytail. I went and put my towel back in the bathroom and hung it up on the towel rack that's bolted to the side of the wall and then walked over to my bed. I hopped into it and fell asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow.
The next day at school, Danny would not stop messing with me. Any free chance he got he would come up to me and start making smart remarks about how he know I 'want him' and crazy shit like that. I'm not going to lie, Danny's fucking sex but, he's not really the kind of guy that I'd want to go out with. He's cocky, a jerk and arrogant. Why wont he just give up and quit trying to get me to go out with him. I already know what his intentions are which is exactly why I keep saying no. Even if I didn't know what he wanted to do after the date, I still wouldn't let it get that far. I don't even think I'd let him kiss me during or after the date. He just needs to leave me alone because he's really starting to annoy me and I don't like it.
"So he was at the restaurant that your dad took you to last night?" Simba asked. "Yeah. And he had a date with him." I said with disgust in my voice. Obviously they all caught it because the next thing I know, they all had smiles on there faces. "Candy, do you like Danny?" Simba asked. "What. No I don't like him. I mean, he's hot obviously but no I do not like him. And I would never go out with him because I know what his intentions are." "I think you like him." Emily said. "No I don't" "Whatever you say." Pete says. "Can we please just talk about something else?" I asked all of them. "How about the fact that we still haven't heard you play the guitar yet?" Simba said. "Well I need to actually have a guitar in order to play for you." I said. "So go buy a guitar." Pete says. "Yes because I have 300 dollars just laying around my room." I said sarcastically. "Well we'll put up the money to get a new one." Emily said. "No really you guys don't have to do that. It's fine. My birthday's coming up soon and I'm might ask my dad to get me a new one." "When's your birthday?" Simba asked. "October 1st." "Oh that's only 3 weeks away." Emily said. "You should totally have a party." Pete says. "I'm not all that in to having birthday parties." "Then at least let all of us take you out for it." Simba said. I smiled and nodded my head. We spent the rest of our free period talking about totally random things and a little bit about my Danny situation as well.
Through out the rest of the week, Danny harassed me pretty much. On Thursday he cornered me outside of the cafeteria and kept telling me that he knows I've been dying to go out with him until finally the bell rang and I was able to go to class where I didn't have to see him for a full hour and a half. He continuously flirted with me even when I didn't reply back to him. He continued to ask me out and it was really starting to annoy the hell out of me. This has been going on for three fucking days now. Why can't he take the hint that I'm not interested in going out with him? Better yet, why can't he just leave me alone?
On Friday, I was at my locker and I was putting my Biology book and English book up before I went to my bike to go home. When I finished placing my books in my locker, I shut the door and jumped in surprise. Danny was standing right there with his head leaning against the locker door beside mine with a smile on his face. I rolled my eyes and started to walk away from him. I could here his footsteps behind me and I knew he was following me. "What do you want Danny." "You know what I want, Candy." You could practically here the smirk in his voice. I turned around abruptly and he came to stop right before he ran into me. I had a serious look on my face and his smirk fell. I turned back around and started walking but before I even took two steps, he grabbed hold of my wrist and turned me back around to face him. I bumped into his chest and was about to say something until I looked up at him. My words got caught in my throat as I looked into his eyes. They almost looked pleading as if he needed me for some reason. "Candy, I'm sorry that I've been a douche this week ok. I'm not used to girls rejecting me." "Obviously." I muttered. "Why wont you go on a date with me?" he asked. Is he serious right now? "Because I know your intentions after." I said. He let go of me and sighed. I took a few steps back and looked at the floor. "Ok what if we just go out and have dinner or go to a movie or something?" he asked. "Ha, I do not trust you enough to be with you in a dark theatre at night." I said. "Fine. There's a carnival tonight about 45 minutes out of town that's going on tonight. How about we go there?" I sighed and shook my head looking off into the distance. "I don't know Danny. You've been a real jerk to me all week and I don't think it's such a good idea. Plus how can I trust that you wont try to seduce me into having sex with you at the end of the night?" He smiled at me, "Because I'm giving you my word, right now, that I won't pull any stunts on you. I wont try to kiss you, I wont even try to hold your hand. Come on, it'll be fun." I looked at him hesitantly for a moment. I'm not too sure about this. What if something goes wrong? What if I have a great time and end up actually liking him? No Candy, that's not going to happen. You already know what he's like and you don't fall for guys like that. "Well?" he asked with a hopeful expression on his face. I thought about it for a few minutes and then looked into his eyes and told him my answer.
