Travis seems nice. I might consider going to the cinema with him. I've been meeting him for a couple of times at school.Talking at the cafeteria. He waits for me after class. Walks me to the gate. But whenever he sees Aiden, it's like he sees his old enemy or something. I'm going to ask Aiden about that later.

It's Saturday already. Mom's already at work so I have to do breakfast. I make eggs and bacons 'coz I'm to lazy to make pancakes. Aiden's is still asleep. So I take the chances to shower first (for God knows how long it took for him to get out).

I turned the shower on and tied my hair to a buns. I watched my reflection in the mirror while waiting for the water to get warm. My blonde hair is almost at my waist, freckles which I always hide, hazel eyes, and my birthmark (which no one knows where it is except my mom). I strip and get in the shower. I take my time there, letting the water hit my face and let it drip down my body. 15 minutes later, I grab my towel, brush my teeth and walk to my room. I grab my black panties and my sport bra. Threw Aiden's shirt over my body, which stop just below my buttocks and wear my short shorts.

I kill my time by watching Disney movies. Tory said the movie will start at 6 p.m. And after that we will grab some dinner. I bet Tory's getting laid tonight. When the movie reached the credits, Aiden ascended from the stairs, grab his breakfast and sit next to me.

"What do you want to watch?" I said while picking a bunch of Disney movies

With a mouthful of bacons he said
"That Irish girl with the read curly hair, who saved her mother from being a bear"

I laughed "you mean Merida from brave?"

"That's the one"

We watch in silent. I grab Coke for both of us. Aiden's watching the movie seriously like it's the first time he seen it while I'm texting with Tory.

"Hey I thought it's going to be a quality time together you know? Bonding time? Bro and sis time? Or whatever you call it" He said with a disappointing tone but his eyes still focused on the tv

"Who said that? We already did that 'bonding' thing for 15 years, so don't bring that up, you know I hate you" my eyes still fixed on my phone

"But you still love me" he joked

"Yeah right" I rolled my eyes. Just when I'm not looking, he took the chances to attack me. He tackle me and started to tickle me. I struggle very hard until we fell of the couch and started laughing together.

"You have to see your face when we fell down its like 'I'm going to fall on a pile of shit'" he said, dropping his body on top of me

I struggle beneath him, he may be slim but gosh he's heavy. "Oh yeah? You should see your face, it's much more hideous than mine"

We stayed there for a couple of minutes and he gets up and walk to the bathroom. I continue to watch brave and head to the kitchen because God have mercy on me, I am so damn hungry. I grab a bag of Cheetos and pour it in a bowl and drop my self on the couch. Just as I'm getting comfy with my position, Aiden have to ruined it by jumping over the couch and make me hold the bowl of Cheetos over my head so it don't get messy and he set his head on my thigh.

"So you're going out tonight huh? Who are you going with? Will someone drive you home? Should I pick you up?"

"Yeah, I'm going to watch a movies with Tory, Matt and Travis. Matt plays football and Travis plays soccer, I'll go to the cinema by myself, we'll meet up there and 'if' Tory's not getting laid which I bet she is, she's going to drive me home" I said while stuffing Cheetos into my mouth.

He toss some Cheetos into his mouth "Travis huh?"

"Can I ask you a question? What's wrong between you two? He seems fine with me, but everytime he sees you it's like he's facing a predator"

He shrug "there's a history between us, just so you know I don't like him going out with you but you're stubborn and won't change your mind. All I want to say is, you'll regret this later and don't blame me for not warning you"

The scene where Merida found the broken tapestry is on and all I can think is who is he to control my life? How dare he said I'm stubborn, well I'm not going to regret hanging out with Travis, it's him who will regret seeing me happy with Travis and he will take back his words.

We ordered a Chinese take out for lunch and watch another Disney movies (we are never to old for Disney). I check my phone and it's already 4 p.m, I should get ready. I brush my teeth and wash my face. I prepared my make up kit on the table and think maybe I should go a little edgy, that should do it. I don't do heavy make up, it's a drag having to remove them and your skin cannot breathe, so I keep it simple but play with the the colors. I apply a very thin layer of foundation on my face (I hate the feeling of foundation, it's like you clog on your pores), my silver eyeshadow and a bit of dark grey. I blush my cheek, put on an eyeliner and mascara, and a red lipstick.

Feeling satisfied, I braided one side of my hair so it looks a little more edgy and make my hair falls to the other side. I grab a couple of white t-shirt and couldn't decide between the Linkin Park or the 'all you need is chocolate' shirt, let's decide it later. I put on my leather pants and grab my red shirt with square pattern. I finally decided on the 'all you need is chocolate' and tuck the front under my pants and I wrapped my shirt around my waist.

4:30 p.m, I put on my white sneakers and put all my stuff on my sling bag. I head downstair while texting my mom, telling her that I'll be late. Aiden's sleeping on the couch (lazy ass), I kissed his forehead and send a text so he won't search for me.

When I arrived at the cinema, Travis's already there. We buy the ticket and wait for the 'other couple' to come. After a minute or so, they pop out with smile in their faces, something's up, I can feel it in my guts. We watched a horror movie. Tory's all over him while Travis and I are taking it slow, even if everytime there's a jumpscare and I will clutch his hand or anything that I can hold on to. The movie is finished. So far so good. We walk to the nearest diner and order food. The waiter who come and take our order is nice and he looks happy to see us. As the foods comes, my stomach started to grumble in anticipation. I dig to my food while Travis, who is sitting next to me laugh and say how 'innocent' I look. Matt and Tory's keeping each other company, they basically forgot about us.

"What do you think about the movie" he watches me stuff fries into my mouth and take a sip of his soda. "Umm... Not bad, it's not even that scary"

"Really huh? You clutch my arm so hard, and I can see you jump from your seat" he laugh, "fyi, I laughed at you at the cinema, but I don't think you noticed 'cause you're really into the movie" he takes a bite of his burger.

"Omg! I'm so sorry, but that is so mean. You laughed at me? It's normal for girls to be a little scared, practically, the movie is not scary it's just the jumpscare, it got me everytime" we look at each other and started laughing very hard.

The conversation between us is very lively, which I'm grateful for. It's already late, Matt and Tory have a long and very deep kiss, which I think they just exaggerate it while, Travis and I just continue our conversation. When they're done kissing, we say good bye and I didn't expect what happen next. He kissed me on the mouth. No one have ever kissed me on the mouth. It felt special (maybe because it's my first time, so I can't tell the different?). I can feel the butterfly in my stomach.

I got home around ten or eleven. Mom's already asleep. I know she's having a rough day, they've been giving her a hard work and she's kicking her ass to keep me and Aiden alive.
I change to my black sweats and tank top, remove my make up and replaying the scene over and over again. That was my first kiss. Just as the scene replayed it self over a dozen times, my brother came in like his brotherly signal flare up.

"How's your date" he flops into my bed

"It's not a date and it went smoothly and btw Tory's not getting laid tonight, which rarely happens" I scoff while removing my lipstick. "She should get an achievement for not getting laid" he seems amused by that news.

"You should probably stop talking about games and stuff, I know what sort of achievement you're talking about" I walk over my bed, laying myself on top of him. "Tell me".

"Xbox" I said in his ear, "you got me" he chuckle and walk out of my room but before he closed the door he said
"Just don't get to comfy with him, he's going to break your heart to dust".
