I woke up with Adams arms around me. I reach over to my night stand and grab my phone. I check the time and it says 10:30. Oh crap! I have dance at 11! I jump up and I woke up Adam.
Adam- why are you up come back here
He pulls me back down with him. I wish I could stay but I can't miss dance.
Keegan- Adam I have dance in 30 minutes.
Adam- wait what?
Keegan- yeah I need to get ready.
Anger flashed in his eyes but went away quickly.
Adam- ok.
I get up and take a 5 minute shower and get dressed. I eat breakfast and brush my hair and teeth. I get my dance bag and them Adam come up to me.
Adam- lets go.
I nodded and we got in the car.

* after car ride*
I went to the bathroom and got changed for dance. Adam like always was staring in through the window.
Mrs. Kay- ok today we are going to work on the group dance.
She told us where to stand and what position to start out in. I started in the center sitting down one leg sticking out one leg in with my head down. We started to practice.

*after dance*
Ugh my body hurts so bad right now. I was so tired I didn't even change back into my normal cloth es I just walked out the door practically limping. I saw Adam and he was....he was.....LAUGHING. WHY WOULD HE BE LAUGHING!?
Adam- you did good.
And he was still laughing!!
Keegan- then why are you laughing!? I'M LIMPING AND ALL YOU CAN DO IS LAUGH AT ME!?
Then all the sudden he shook his head and picked me up.
Keegan- what are you doing?
Adam- I'm carrying you to the car.
Keegan- o-ok
Once we got to the car he sat me down and I got in the passengers seat. He got in the driver's seat.
Keegan- thanks for carrying me.
Adam- no problem.

*at the house*
Ok so I have about 1 hour to get ready for the date. OH NO ONLY ONE HOUR!? wait calm down keegan...why am I freaking out like this? I mean I don't like him like him. Even though he is cute funny and can be sweet but he can also be a jerk a jerky jerk jerk and a buttface. He can be so freaking mean. So yeah there's no need to worry. I take a shower get dressed in a white blouse and some jeans. I put on some boots and brush and dry my hair. I then brush my teeth and I don't put make up on. I think makeup is stupid. So yeah I'm ready. Someone knocked on my door.
Adam- you ready?
Keegan- yeah.
I come out and I look at him. Hrs wear a white muscle shirt with a leather jacket and some jeans with sneakers.
Adam- you look pretty but I was expected you to wear something more fancy.
Keegan- your not wearing anything fancy so why you tellin me?
He chuckles a little.
Adam- cime on lets go.
He grabs my wrist and pulls me to the car. Good thing I'm not limping any more.

*at the restraint*
We sat down at a booth and ordered our food. It's a nice looking restraint. I've never been here before though. Adam clears his throat. I look up at him.
Adam- have you been here before?
Keegan- no.
Adam- when I was younger about 5 years old before my dad cheated on my mom my dad brought me here all the time and I loved it.
I smiled at him. The waiter came and gave us our food. We both ordered spaghetti. I took a bite and it was really good actually.
Adam- I see you like it?
I nodded.
Adam- you know I can give you something you'll like even better.
He had that cocky smirk on his face. He was pointing at himself. I spit out my drink I was drinking. Some of it got on him but I didn't care. It's what he gets for saying that.
Keegan- that's gross Adam!!
He was laughing.
Adam- ok ok it doesn't mean you have to spit at me
I laughed too.
Keegan- sorry...
I handed him another napkin and he wiped his face off. I couldn't help but keep laughing. He laughed too. Our laughing stopped and we were calm again.
Adam- I have a question...you don't have to answer it if you don't want to.
Keegan- ok what is it?
Adam- can you tell me more about your mom and your sister?
I thought about it for a moment.
Keegan- sure...what do you want to know?
Adam- I want to know the whole story.
Keegan- *sigh* my mom and I were very close. My dad was in love with her and you can tell. My mom felt the same. We were a happy family...I guess you can call it. Then I found out my mom was pregnant...
Adam- you weren't happy because of it?
Keegan- no I was really happy...but she died while giving birth to my sister...Elliot. she looked more like my dad. Elliot and I were best friends more than sisters. Then she got diagnosed with cancer when she was 10.
I looked up at Adam he was looking at me with concern.
Keegan- she died a year later.
I felt tears wanting to come out of my eyes.
Adam- Keegan...I am so sorry...no one should have to go through all of that.
He grabbed my hand and I smiled weakly at him.
Keegan- its ok don't worry.
Adam- I always worry about you.
My eyes widen. Did he really just say that?
Keegan- y-you do?
Adam- yeah...I do.
This can't be happening. He's lying. Hrs just trying to get laid. I bet he does this to every girl he meets. I take my hand back away from his. He looks a bit surprised I did that.
Adam- What's the matter? Did I do something wrong?
Keegan- well n- I don't know...it's just that....
Adam- that what?
Keegan- I bet you do this to every girl.
I whisper it because I really didn't want him to hear what I said. But he did.
Adam- what are you talking about?
Keegan- your a player and then your saying you worry about me and taking me out on a date and I just don't get it. I know what made you become a player but why would you do what your dad did if you knew how it felt?
Adam- I don't want to be a player and I'm not a player at least not anymore. I did it because it was my way to get me to stop thinking about all of the shit that was happening during that time. Ever since I met you I just....stopped using girls. I guess you can say that you caught my attention.
I took a few moments to thi k about what he said. Then he started talking again.
Adam- I know you don't trust me but I want to earn your trust.
He sounds like he isn't lying. He sounds truthful about every word he was saying.
Keegan- you have my trust...just don't break it.
I'm going to let him have a chance because I think I'm falling...for him.
