What is Love?

Chapter 6

"What's with the red lipstick?" Miranda asked. I had to find some way to cover my torn lip. Miranda hadn't seen me since morning, It's now the fifth period and I had to get home as fast as I could after school since Dylan kept texting all day and reminding me of our "date".

"Trying to change my look, why? is it bad?" I asked knowing Miranda she'll definitely forget about what she asked in the first place.

"GIRL! it's great" I laughed at her lousy comment. I knew it looked horrible, I just had to bear with it until my lip heals. Here I am, looking for Dylan. I haven't seen him since the first period and what's irritating is that he doesn't answer me when I ask him where he is taking me. I need to know what I can wear, but no, he is just stubborn.

'Don't mock me mister just tell where you are taking me. I need to know, I wanna where something appropriate'

'wear anything you want, it's cool' -Dee

'ok fine'

'are you angry?' -Dee

'NO, bye I gotta go home, pick me up from there'

************************************************************

"Mom, Please help" I ran downstairs. I need mom's help, I'm not used to going out on dates. Scratch that, I've never been on a date before.

"What is it now?"

"I'm going out with Dylan and I need something to wear, help me woman" I look at her with puppy dog eyes. I know I'm ugly but it sorta works on mom.

"Just where anything, since when do you care about how you look" 'uh am sorry mom, ever since my childhood crush asked me on date'.

"okay, thank you MOM" I walk to my room and pick out the skinny jeans and a top, red lipstick on my swollen lips and mascara..plus eyeliner, YES!. My phone rings and I ran to pick it up clearing my throat.

"Come out" Dylan said over the phone.

"NO, come in"

"NO"

"Then I'm not coming out" I smile at the phone.

"UGH! okay fine" I won. Just like that, I heard the front door opening, I walked downstairs and saw him there, all casual which was great because I was also dressed all homeless.

"Ready to go?" he asked

"Yes"

We walked outside, he opened the door to his car and I sat. He started the car and he drove to wherever he was taking me.

******************************************************************************************

"The lipstick wasn't necessary you know" He mocked as we got out of the car. 'oh how I wish it wasn't necessary' I just smiled at his comment.. "But it looks good" he continued and then I blushed, just like that. My cheeks were red.

"Okay, here we are". 'YES, the carnival' my mind shouted and I squealed, It's like he knew I wanted to come here but I couldn't since Miranda is always busy and Jason never likes the carnival, I never really had someone to come with.

After two hours of going on rides, I was now hungry.

"Dylan, let's get food"

"Sure, what do you want?"

"I want everything you can get" He laughed and walked to the food trucks and pulled me with him.

"Can I get that?" I looked at him pointing at some sort of pizza like pie, who makes these.!

"Sure princess" He smiled as he ordered.

************************************************************************************

"You've got a little.." Dylan said as he pointed at his lips. I tried rubbing it off, whatever it was. "Let me" he continued, he grabbed his tissue and patted my lips, which was the worst thing he could have done because It hurt like hell. I forgot about my tore lip. oh!God.

"OUCH!" I yelled and he looked at me shocked. I covered it up lying about hitting my toe and he fell for it. We enjoyed few more rides before dropping me home.

"I had a great time, thank you" It's true, I never had this much fun.

"Me too" and then he hugged me, I flinched because of the scars, they still hurt. I gave him a smile and walked inside. I could have seen the confused look on his face. He must this I don't like him. Oh! man, but again I have to do whatever it takes in order to make him remember me, I need him to.

"Had fun?" mom smiled. She knew I needed this, at least once, she knew how Dylan made me feel and she was okay with it.

"Yeah, thank you" I walk past my mom giving her a kiss and yelling goodnight as I entered my room. This was the best day yet, I have never had such fun and going on this date with Dylan has been great but now I needed a shower, a hot shower and soak my self in the tub because am so tired. I got out of the skinny jeans and heading for the bathroom. Sitting there for almost half and hour, I decided to rinse and get ready for bed.

I put on a huge shirt and cuddled with my comforter as I checked my phone for any texts. I found Dylan's missed call, I called him just to ask what he wanted.

"Hey, is there anything you want?"

"GEEZ WOMAN, I just wanted to say goodnight" he laughed

"Oh! sorry,goodnight and thank you for today, it's been great,I've never had that much fun since forever"

"You're welcome, see you should go out with me some more"

"I'll think about that, goodnight, I have to sleep"

"Nooo, wait" He begged

"What?" I laughed at how desperate he sounded.

"How are you?" he asked and that's all I needed, no one had ever asked me that, ever and Dylan just asked me.

"I'm okay"

"No Elena, I want the truth, I saw the torn lip and you flinched when I hugged you, are you okay? Tell me the truth" should I tell him? A part of me wants to share what I'm going through and another part just doesn't want to get all that pity.

"I'll tell you when I'm ready"

"Promise?"

"I promise, Goodnight Dee"

"Goodnight princess"
