The smile on my face seems to never fade. I feel like this is all just a dream. I know it sounds cheesy because they always say that in movies and stories, but this is real. It actually does feel like a dream. I'm going to wake up as soon as I close my eyes when I go to sleep.

I turned the knob and went inside, and it was very dark. They must've slept already. I'm suprised yet thankful my parents aren't even worried about me. I walk up the stairs to my room and took off my heels, they are seriously killing me. I change into my pajamas and jump onto my bed. I rest my head on my pillowcase, then look up at the ceiling.

Wow. I still can't believe I got a kiss on my very first date. Well...actually, I got a kiss a bit more sooner than that. I close my eyes and imagine how his lips moves perfectly with mine, and soon I drifted off to sleep.

The next morning I woke up to something vibrating on my bed. I rub my eyes and try to find out what is vibrating. It's my phone. I try to make my vision clearer.

It seems like a phone call. From....Claire? I quickly answered.

"Hello?" I said, my just-woke-up voice visible. "So...how did it go?" She replies.

Confusion struck onto me and all I could manage to say is, "Huh?"

I can hear her scoff and I know that she is also rolling her eyes at me.

"The date, duh" she says. I start to think of what she meant, and soon my face start to blush thinking about what happened.

"Oh that." I say blushing. "Um...yeah what else would I be talking about?" She says. "So..how did it go?" She asks again.

"Umm it wa-" I start to say. "Wait! Quickly get dressed. Meet us in the usual place." I just nod at her, eventhough she could not see me, and hang up. I didn't know what us meant but chose to ignore it.

I force myself out of my comfortable bed and walk into the bathroom. I scream, but quickly close my mouth with my hands, as I look at myself in the mirror. I look horrible. I apparantly forgot to wash off my makeup last night and my hair is no longer in it's nice curls.

I quickly take off my clothes and take a shower to wash all the makeup off. I look to the mirror and breath out a sigh of relief as I see my normal face again.

I wrap myself in a towel and choose a little black dress for the day. I grab my bag and my phone and go downstairs.

The kitchen is empty. I look at the time and it shows 12 pm. Wow, I must be really sleepy.

I don't feel really hungry, but I'll eat later anyways. My hand reach for the door knob, until I realize I need to drive. I groan and go back upstairs to find my keys. I got them and walk to my car and start the engine.

I drive to the mall that we usually go to and go to Fun World, it's an arcade place. I know it sounds childish, but what better place than to relive our childhood.

I quickly spot Claire and 3 other people with her. I look closer and realize it is just Fay, Claude, and Monnett. I walk to them and hug them.

"Omg I finally found you guys." I say. "Hehe. We just came here a few minutes ago." Fay says.

"So which one should we do now?" Claude asks. I just shrug. "Omg the photobooth is empty. Let's go there. I'm tired of always taking selfies." Claire says and she starts to walk towards the photobooth while we follow behind her.

We got inside the photobooth. The photobooth is quite small so we try and work it out. There is a small chair fit for 2 or 3 people inside the photobooth. Claire and I decide to stand up on it together while the other 3 stand on the floor. We perfectly fit inside the small screen.

We tap the screen and pick out a few backgrounds. But the screen couldn't seem to cooperate with our hands. But soon Monnett figure it out. I lost count in how many photos we took. I laughed at some of the photos and believe me that is not a pretty laughing face.

Finally, we are done with taking pictures and we could finally edit it. Apparantly we could choose the photos we like, which I am very thankful for.

We edit the pictures a bit and got outside to wait for the pictures to print.

It took a long time to wait for it, but when we see the pictures I beam with happiness. It is the nicest thing I have ever seen. I don't believe we have ever taken nice pictures like that before.

Too bad the photobooth machine only prints one sheet. So we cut until everyone gets a picture.

"Wow. How long have we not been doing this guys?" Monnett says while we are walking around the arcade trying to find an interesting game. "I have no idea. It feels like a year." I say.

"More like a billion years." Claire says. We agree with her. There are no more interesting games so we decide to head out and do something else.

"Ooh ooh let's do some shopping. I need a new pair of leggings." Fay says. I mentally roll my eyes at her. She always says that when we go to a mall. We accompany her to Stradivarius and look around while waiting.

Claire and I go to the sunglasses section and we try on a bunch of sunglasses to see what we look like with them. There are a pair of nice ones we both look good in but probably will never wear.

I took out my phone to take a mirror selfie, but then Claire points at a sign which says no taking pictures. I give her a pleading look but she shook her head.

I sigh while we put the glasses back on the rack. We walk back to where the other 3 are, turns out Fay is already in the cashier.

We walk out of the store and we walk aimlessly around the wall. I walk next to Claire and she nudge me. I look to her with a confusing face.

"So...tell me about the date." She says. I blush again at the thought of it and say, "Well it wa-"

"Hey guys! Want to go get some ice cream?" We hear Claude shout at ask. We look to her and gave her a thumbs up. I look back to Claire and say, "I'll tell you about it when we are eating ice cream." She nod and we continue walking to the ice cream place.

We order our ice cream and find a place to sit. "So...you can continue now." Claire say.

"Oh right. Well the date was-" I say. "What are you guys talking about? I heard you guys saying date." Monnett suddenly ask. We look to her and we found that Fay and Claude is also looking at us.

"Remember the Harry and Niall asking us out? I already told you about my date with Niall." Claire says.

"Oh yeah. You guys are very lucky. So tell us about your date Rosaline." Fay says.

I begin telling about my date and my mouth seems to grow wider the more I talk about it. "-and yeah that's about it." I say.

I look back to them and they are watching dreamily. "Umm...guys?" I ask.

They soon snap out of it and Claire say, "Huh? Oh umm...wow Rosaline. He sounds like such a romantic guy. I couldn't even believe that."

"Me neither Claire. I thought it was just going to be a simple dinner date, but..." I say.

"Wow both of your dates with them sound very amazing. I hope that we can find a guy like that too." Claude says.

"Aww. I'm pretty sure there will be someone for you guys." I say. "So are you guys official with them now?" Monnett ask.

I look to Claire and she blush. "No..I don't think so...he never said anything about it. I don't know anymore" she says. "What about you Rosaline?" Monett asks me.

I shrug and go back to eating my ice cream, not wanting to talk about that yet.

We continue eating our ice cream silently until it is time for us to get back home.

"Goodbye guys. See you tomorrow!" I say while hugging each of them before walking to my car and driving back home.
