Trust life a little (Completed)

14-I Have To Use The Bathroom

Everyone that was siting with us froze. I felt a million people stare at me and i couldn't do anything about it. I looked around to Jake and he was surprised and intrigued to see what i would say. I looked to Ethan and Alex and they were as surprised as me. When i looked over to Michael he was so vulnerable. I couldn't say no, so i decided to say yes to the arrangements. I felt really bad but good at the same time. Michael asked me to go to the movies with him and Jake was mad about it. I felt so important. Jake was about to jump over the table but the bell saved us again. Once the bell rang me and Michael shot up and decided to leave. 

I said bye to everyone and everyone said it back. The only thing that made it worse was that Jake didn't say it back. Well, he said it but he didn't mean it. I walked off with Michael and i had the urge to ask the question that has been running through my mind. "Is this a date?"

Michael stopped and looked at me. "Well i was hoping you wouldn't ask that question, but since you asked. I was hoping it was, if you don't want it to be a date then no."

"I would love to go on a date with you, but don't you dare take me to a sappy movie. I hate those." I chuckled and he joined me. We walked to his car and we drove off to the movie theater. Once we got to the movie theater, Michael opened the door for me and we walked to the movie theater doors. Michael wrapped an arm over my shoulders and we walked over to get our tickets. We decided to watch The Walk and bought some popcorn. We got our seats and Michael kept stealing glances of me. 

What is it that he keeps looking at me? Ugh...boy if you have to tell me something go ahead and tell me. I turned my body to him and looked at him. He looked back at me and put his hand on my cheek. I put my own hand on his and he started to lean in. What is he doing? He better not be doing what i think he is doing. Ugh...I frantically said, "I have to use the bathroom." Michael looked confused but said ok. I walked past him and practically ran down the hallway, into the bathroom. I stood in front of the sink and looked at myself. What was that?

I should be happy that my first kiss would be with him. Why did i chicken out? It's not like i have feelings for anyone else. I am single and practically a virgin in anything that has to do with relationships or romance. I washed my face and looked at my phone. I saw a text from Jake asking me if i was ok? Why wouldn't i be? Wait...Did Michael text Jake about what happened? I am going to be a laughing stock tomorrow. I texted jake, questioning about what he meant. He answered my previous question. Michael did text Jake and Jake knew everything. I am so embarrassed. I chickened out of a kiss and now practically everyone will know. 

I felt a tear roll down my face. No, not now Dakota. Your embarrassing the guy outside. Get yourself together and get back in the game, you don't have all day. I washed my face and started to head down the hallway to the movie room. I felt something ring in my pockets so i took it out. Ugh, who is calling me now? I look at the caller ID and its Jake. What the hell? I pick up the phone and casually say, "Hello?"

"Dakota you alright?"

"Yeah i'm fine," mental high five for the lying.

"Your not fine." Why does he have to know me so well.

"Fine, i may not be ok."

"Dakota I can't help you if you wont tell me what's wrong."

"Ok, ok, ok. I may have flaked because i haven't kissed anyone ever," I said that last part in a whisper so he couldn't hear it.

"Really? I thought you were joking about that stuff."

"Well i'm not so just switch the topic."

"No, no, no, you have a boy in that movie room that is dying to make out with you. So here is what you do. If you are not ready for that stuff, just tell the guy. Michael will understand, trust me."

"What if he screams at me or makes fun of me," I said while imaging Michael doing those things to me.

"Well i guess i am going to have to break a few eggs to make an omelet. You know what i mean."

"Yeah i get it, tough guy."

Jake chuckled at me and we shared a 'goodbye'. I felt better and decided to confront the situation with Michael. I walked to my seat and sat back with Michael. He looked awkward so i pulled up the armrest to cuddle with him. He wrapped his arm around my waist and i felt content. I took a handful of popcorn and looked up to Michael. He looked more relaxed and was so intrigued with the movie. He glanced to me and smiled. I looked back at the screen and he kissed my head. Aww...this guy is a sweetheart. 

After the movie we headed out with Michael's arm still around my waist. Personally the movie was kind of cliche but i enjoyed it because i had Michael by my side. We walked out of the movie theater and back to his car. I was about to open the door but Michael stopped me. What the hell? He went on and on about how it's a gentleman's job to open the door and blah, blah, blah. I let him win and we eventually got to my house. He walked me to my front door and I stood there looking into his eyes. What should i say? Should i say the cliche line like, "i had a nice time today," or just blatantly walk into my house?

He held my waists and i smiled at him. He smirked back, but his smirk was more casual then the one that Jake sported. Why the hell am i thinking about Jake when i am with Michael? I pushed all my thoughts out of the way and looked into his brown eyes. I felt Michael's hand move from my waist to my face. His hands are so warm. I close my eyes for a second and when they open i could see that Michael and I were nose to nose. He bit his lip and i could tell that he wanted to kiss me but was scared that i would reject him again. I felt that this time i had to make the move.

I leaned closer to him and i could tell that he was stunned. I heard my brother but didn't care. I wanted my first kiss to be over with and i think it's time. I was about to kiss him but my brother opened the front door so we pushed apart. Michael fixed himself and I did the same. My brother looked at me and back at Michael. He suddenly said, "Don't tell me this is just one of your friends."

Michael answered with, "Actually sir, you are correct."

"Don't call me sir, I'm only twenty."

"What should I call you?"

"Dakota's brother, who will kick your ass if you ever get that close to Dakota."

"Catchy name," Michael said with a grin. Ooh mistake one, never take my brother's threats lightly. I frantically tell Michael goodnight and push my brother inside. I look out the window to see Michael walking away. I looked up to Cameron and smiled at him. He gave me a stern look but i broke that look in a second. He is my trick, hugs and bribing. I had to do all his laundry, his stinky laundry. I finally finished and walked to my room. I jumped onto my bed and looked up to the ceiling. I went to my book bag and took out my basketball shorts.

Changing time! I ended up in my sports bra and my basketball shorts. Ahh, nice. I snuggled into my bed and looked onto my phone. I could text Jake or Michael. Hmm...tough one. I can just text both, and so i did. Jake texted me back quickly. I told him how everything went well and especially the part with my brother. Jake was dying, he loved Michael's one line, "catchy name." I was also laughing too. I can't lie, Michael was a funny person at times. Speaking of him, Michael texted me about how he was sorry about the awkward date. I told him it was alright, what else could i say. I could of been rude and told him all the flaws in the date but what's the point?

I got tired so i said goodnight to both of my goofballs. Time to sleep, finally.
