I followed Krysta to her house to get ready for my outing with Shawn. I borrowed some of her clothes. After an hour of curling and trying clothes on, i ended up in a sleeveless mint green dress that stopped on my knees. The dress had gold studs around the hem. I wore gold ballet flats. Krysta gave me the smoky eye effect. It brought out my eyes a bit. She curled my eyelashes and applied mascara. Then i used a pink Victoria secrets lip stain and picked my gold Gucci purse.

He was going to pick me in 30 minutes. I looked at Krysta who gave me a thumbs up. I smiled. She put on her tv to a music channel. We both screamed as one of our best songs came on. She picked up a spoon and i picked up a spatula. We held it as microphones and sang wildly.

"Who's that sexy thing,standing over there? That's me, standing by the mirror....whats that shinny thing hanging round my neck? That's gold, show me some respect...i thank God everyday that i woke up feeling this wayy..and i cant help loving myself and i need nobody else...if i was you,I'd wanna be me too,I'd wanna be me too,I'd wanna be me....too"

Then we started moving wildly because it was only both of us in the house. Or so we thought. We heard a cough and turned around.

It was Shawn. What?when? How did he even get here?
"You left the front door unlocked. And nessa wasn't home"

we both giggled and i looked at krysta,hugged her and went with Shawn. Outside, i looked around for a car. I didn't see a car. He held my hand and took me to a side of my house that i couldn't see from krystas porch. There was a motorbike. A freaking bike! I have always wanted one of those. I squealed. He looked at me and shook his head, laughing slightly.
He sat on the bike and wore his helmet. I sat behind him and wore a helnet he gave me. As we pulled out of my house, i screamed happily. I love the feel of thr wind against my body. I'm pretty sure the ridr will ruin my hair but its just hair. I csn always comb it.

"Hold on tight,I'm going to speed up"

I held on tightly to his waist and rested my head on his back. He smelled like fresh apples and vanilla. I could stay like this forever. But then he stopped. We got to the cinema. After paying and getting popcorn, we went in. We sat at the back with a lot of cuddling kissy couples. Oh come on,people! This wasn't even a romance movie. We were seeing deadpool because apparently,Shawn hadn't seen it.

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

The movie was so cool. I don't know how its possible that I'm excited after watching deadpool like 3 times. Shawn made the movie more interesting by whispering funny comments after every scene. I don't know how i never noticed Shawn. I saw him as the best friend of my big time crush but now, i was beginning to see him as more. Its not like i was falling in love with him or anything,i just really liked him.
"Earth to Nessa!"

Turns out i was staring at him as i was thinking. I kept staring at him and he stared back at me. He began to lean in slowly. Please no... we cant be like the couples around... I'm not ready for this...but why am i still staring into his gorgeous eyes...why cant i pull away...

Just as his lips touched mine, my phone rang. How Cliche!. He jumped a bit,startled. I looked to see it was tori calling me. I rejected the call. Whatever it was, it could definitely not be important.

Shawn was looking away. Oh joy,we were in that awkward stage where we dint know how we stand with each other. How pleasant! Not.

I cleared my throat.
"Lets go, nessa. Sorry for earlier"

He looked at me with regret written on his face.
"its okay,shawn, we were caught up in the moment. Lets get going"

The ride on his bike was awkward. Me holding onto his waist didn't make it any better. We came to a stop by a blue building. If we were going to be here for long, i had to get rid of this awkward tension.
As we entered, we took a sit on the far right. I think this was the buffet place. After a while, we got up to the buffet table and took all we wanted. When i got to the table, i didn't see Shawn. Maybe he was still on the line among all those people.
Being the good girl that i was, i waited for Shawn before eating up. I probably looked like a loser with no friends so i brought out my phone and tried to get past my high score on color switch.
After three minutes, i saw Shawn coming over with a scowl on his face and ice cream on his shirt. I doubled up laughing,i couldn't help it. When he sat down, he folded his arms and pouted like a five year old. He was just too cute!
"Sophie did this to me"

Sophie?
As if he sensed my ignorance, he pointed to a table not far from ours. There was a six year old girl in a purple dress sticking her tongue out at Shawn who also mirrored her action. I looked back at Shawn waiting for an explanation.

"I wanted vanilla and she got the last one. I tried to grab it from her but she called me a big baby and did this"
He pointed to his shirt.

I laughed again. Then we had a conversation about random things. And just like that, BAM!!! Awkward moment gone. After some time, he took me home.
I got down from his bike and hugged him.
"That was fun,thanks Shawn"
He hugged me back. Then i gave him a kiss on his cheeks which by the way,were so soft. And i waved. I waved till he drove off. I stood there for another minute. He was so sweet. Too bad i was going to leave him tomorrow. I wiped a tear from my eyes and enter to meet the lights off. It was 10pm. Maybe everyone was sleeping,and by everyone,i mean Kyle. As i locked the door with my key and took a step, i heard a sinister female voice.
"Well well well...if it isn't hugs not drugs miss goody-two-shoes"

Whoever she was, she flicked on the lights. How did she enter my house?
