I know Chris's last class is right next door to mine. My friends say that I should go and wait for him by his class, or to wait after class. I wanted to have time to think about what I was going to say so I waited till after.
When the last bell rang I was leaving the class, to see that he was already waiting for me. The way he looked just standing there mad my heart skip a beat. Chris is so cute, that when I went to approach him I couldn't even speak. He grabbed my wrist! I wasn't going to walk away, but he must have wanted to make sure I wasn't.
" Jess please let me talk to you and explain things " - Chris
" ~okay " - Jess
We started walking out of the school towards his car, and he hasn't said anything yet. He kinda just kept walking and I followed. Once we got to his car he asked if I needed a ride, but I had driven to school today so I was good.
He looked at me with the saddest face I've ever seen a man have. No matter what he said I was going to forgive him.
" Jess I want you to know that I didn't to take you on the date just to embarrass you, I would never do that. Amanda is in the past, and I don't like her like that anymore. I know what happened has caused you a lot of pain but just know I really think your cute and don't want this to end " - Chris
" I know you weren't trying to hurt me...I just had to leave because it was to much for me. Yes I had my doubts because your you and I'm me, but I knew you would never do that on purpose. I also wanted to apologize for not answering your texts it was childish of me " - Jess
Things were going well and I knew I didn't want what me and Chris had to end either. Knowing that he was truly sorry and that he wanted to keep this going made me fall even more for him.
" Let me walk you to your car? " - Chris
" Okay thanks " - Jess
As we were walking to my car, we passed by Amanda she had given me the rudest look. I don't know what her deal is, Chris says he doesn't even like her like that anymore...and I can see why. I knew Chris had saw her to because when we were about to pass by he started to walk faster. Maybe he could tell how uncomfortable I was and knew that if we walked any slower that she would try and do something again.
The next day it seemed like things were going good, there were some slight pushes and shoves in the hall but all good. My friends would play body guard and try and protect me. But with how my convo went with Chris yesterday nothing could bring down my mood. I was so happy to know that he thought I was cute it kept playing over and over again in my head him saying that to me. I don't know when we are going to have another date but I hope it's soon. I would like to replace the bad date we had with a good one.
After my last class he was hanging out by my classrooms front door, but he was talking to his friends. I didn't wanna bother, so I just started walking to my car. Next thing you know someone had pulled me on the wrist! I turned to look and it was my friend Alyssa, she's always doing that at the wrong times. I really thought that I was going to turn and see Chris...but oh well.
It has been on my mind for a bit now, since after school. He didn't say hi or even look at me...
Later on, I had taken a shower and was ready to sleep, when I had gotten a text from Chris.

My heart just left my body! I was just thinking about him and now look, he texts me.
The texts were simple " nothing much " and " same " but then came the good part! Chris had asked me if I wanted to go to his family's Sunday lunch. I wasn't so sure at first because we aren't dating and meeting his family?! So early in a relationship, what would he introduce me as a friend? A girlfriend? Who knows but I know one thing I wasn't going to leave a bad impression. Just in case we do end up going out I was going to make sure his family already liked me. I said yes and he gave me the details, Sunday @1:30.
The next day I told my friends and they all came over to help me get ready for tomorrow. Tyra, Kayla, and Nina were going through my clothes to find a nice clean, not to showy outfit. While Maria and Alyssa were helping me go through what I should say and not say when meeting a crushes family.
I had 3 outfits to choose from, Kayla's a flower A-line dress that flows and ends at my knees with a cardigan. Nina's a navy blue skirt that goes from the waist to the knees, white top T-shirt that hangs on me ( shirt tucked into the skirt ). Tyra's was more casual yellow tank top with black business jacket, sleeves rolled up, with khaki shorts. All perfect outfits, but because it was the first meeting I wanted to overdue it a little so I went with Kayla's. I had a pair of white wedges and they were easy to walk in, so now my outfit is complete.
Maria was more of a just do it type person, so her advice was to do what I feel and not regret it later. While Alyssa was more think about it, then say it. They were going head to head, but I just decided to do a little bit of both. Be who I am no matter what but think about what I say and who I say it to.
Chris had came and picked me up from my house, he came and knocked on the door and unlike him I didn't want him to meet my parents right away. So I said bye and ran out the door.
When we got to his house he had gave me the normal warnings, about his mother and father. Also he said his grandparents, his family was a little more traditional then mine. My grandparents didn't want us to take care of them while, his expected his parents to.
When we walked in the first person I met was his father his name was Steve but said I could just call him Mr.Nyugen. Next was grandma and grandpa, they said it was okay for me to call them nana and papa. I think they were both so nice, and can see a lot of Mr.Nyguen in them both. Last but not least the mom, Mrs.Nyguen. She was so happy to see Chris but...when she saw me the smile and happy look went to dark and unhappy.
