When I got through the front door, I let Flash off his lead and he ran straight into the living room. I took off my cold wet coat and gloves that had at least twenty holes in. I messed my long blonde hair around.
Then, I see my twin Janye looking as misable as ever. She was coming out of the bedroom. We share a room you see. Some how Janye can tell if something wrong, probably because we are twins. She is the complete opposite to me. We are both geeks, don't get me wrong. But, personally we are personality wise no way!
'Where have you been?' Janye asked with one eyebrow lifted.
'Doing your dirty work that what. I'm wet and thanks to you.' I say to her.
'It too easy to foul mom but you, no chance. Your so selfish, and only care about yourself.' She had a sharp tongue and could easily affend anyone. 'Thats so not true, It just wasn't my day today thats all!' I hate my bitter twin. I so sometimes wished she wasn't my twin. When we were younger we were always playing outside together and do what every five or six year old would do. Play with dolls, have pretend tea parties with your teddies, enjoy life to the full!
Janye pushed passed me and entered the living room. She lifted the piano cover and got herself into prosession. I couldn't stop thinking about Harvey. I needed to find out more about him. Well, he is my first boy I actually pay attention too. When I was doing my maths homework, I couldn't stop thinking about him. I just couldn't wait to see his face again.
The night before the date to be, I went on skype and skyped Clara. Clara's little brother Joseph was on his feet running around, annoying Clara as usual. I didn't say anything about Harvey nevermind, how excited I was. I went on there to talk about school and gossip about Skye's choice of boys. Well, Skye is easily pleased and doesn't care much about school.
In my cluttered room talking to my best mate, eating chocolate covered marshmallows. (luxurious)
Clara had to go because her dinner was ready so, I read for most of the night and played games on my tablet. Jayne was running in and out to get her stuff like her teddy Johnny and her onezie as she was going to watch a doctor who marathon.
I just drew my curtains in my bedroom and put my lamp on and chilled in my room till dust. As the lights came on in my house, I was in my own little world as I never felt like this towards a boy before. The last time I felt this way was at a school dance and the boy who asked me to the dance and I liked him like crazy. Then, I found out he was trying to get back at a girl! I felt so stupid.
I see Janye come in and she falls asleep so I have no choice but, sleep!
***********************************************************************************************************************
Next morning, I was the first one up. Light fading in from the curtains and laser forms of lights hit the walls of my bedroom. Janye was not visible, underneath her duvets. I sneaked into the living room and opened all the curtains, then I went to the TV and put on last nights big bang that I missed while talking to Clara. I looked at the time in the top right hand corner of the TV screen. It was 09:45. Right, I had ages to get ready to meet Harvey. When, mom and Dad eventually came in, big bang was half way through and telling me that I needed to do something this lovely Sunday morning. They don't actually know I'm going out not even to meet a boy. This would be very tricky!
I had a shower and dug right into my wardrobe to choose the best outfit possible. How about: A pair of black tight jeans and new look top that has a massive v neck so, I can show off who I'm really am! As soon as I was going to go out the door mom court me. 'Where you going Jessica?' She asked me. 'No where!' I shouted back. She lifted up her highly thin eyebrow and gave me the stare. 'Seriously!' I shouted for a answer. 'Jessica what are you actually doing?' She asked me while folding her arms. 'Ok umm going to see Clara!' That was the only thing I could come up with. Hopefully, she won't phone up Clara's Dad to make sure I'm there. She has done that in the past. 'Alright then, but be home by four, you got homework!' I smiled and picked up my bag. I ran out the house and headed for the square.
By the time I got there, mini businesses had stalls and celebrated farmer market. We had this every Sunday in the square as we had no supermarkets. The nearest is Tesco, where Clara's mom lives. We do have little farm shops and a newsagents and that's all. It was 13:59 when I got there. He wasn't there. Will he be on time? Then, as soon as it turned 14:00 Harvey turned up. With his long posh coat and neatly brushed hair, He was as I imagined.
'Hello Jessica,' he was so posh and he remembered my name.
'Hello Harvey, and it's Jess by the way!' He stared deep into my eyes and gave a sensible smile that made my heart go crazy madly. 'Sorry Jess you got to keep reminding me. I'm terrible. So, shall we explore and do as planned Jess?' He held his hand out to hold mine. This must mean something right? 'Yes of course Harvey. I've only got till four so we better get a move on!' I held his hand and we started to look around.
It was 15:00 and Harvey and I had shopped and enjoyed Bromabury to the max. Taking in the views and even Harvey helped out with my Shakespeare studies. Harvey loves Shakespeare and knows every line to Romeo and Juliet and Macbeth. Its crazy but, really cool!
He was telling me as we were wondering through Bromabury's park to cut through to get to my house. When, we had to go our own way home we were thinking of the next time we shall meet. 'So, I will see you walking your dog around then, Jess?'
'Sure thing Harvey until the next drag around the park.' We both smiled. He leaned in and he kissed me. It felt wonderful and what I needed. I found the one!
