I open my locker and grab a book
"Hey" I turn around to see Eli
"Hi" I say tucking a hair behind my ear
"So you have fun at the sleepover?"
"Yeah I did" I tell him
"I'm glad" he smiles "I'm also glad I really got to see the inside of the house it's nice"
"Thanks hopefully everyone won't be as scared of the house anymore" he nods
"So about what I asked you at your house" he says nervously
"What was that?" I ask confused
"About us hanging out just us two" he says
"O yeah" I remember
"Like a date" he says blushing
I feel my face go red also why would he want to go on a date with me "really?" Is all I can say
"Yeah I mean if you want to"
Do I? I mean why wouldn't I want to he's a nice guy
"Um yeah that would be fun" I say
"Friday sound good?" He asks me
"Yeah" I nod
"Great" he smiles happily "um I'll see you at lunch"
"Okay" I say as I watch him walk away
***********************************
"I'm home" I yell
I go up stairs and put my stuff up in my room and come back downstairs to the living room, I see Luke sitting on the couch
I walk over and sit next to him
"Hey" he says as I sit down
"Hi" I give him a small smile
"So how was school?" He asks me
"it was interesting" I chuckle
"do tell" he raises a eyebrow and smirks
"Eli asked me on a date for this Friday" I say
I look at him he doesn't say anything he just looks speechless
"Great" he says with a clenched jaw he turns his head and looks at the tv
I don't know why I feel disappointed by his answer I mean what would I want him to say
"What's wrong?" I can't help but ask him
"Why would anything be wrong" he shrugs not looking at me
"Really than why won't you look at me" I say growing irritated
He looks at me "what do you want me so say Jess I'm glad you're going on a date with the quarterback"
"Is there something wrong with him?" I ask him
"No he's perfect" he rolls his eyes "why do you care what I think anyway"
"Because your kind of my best friend and I care what you think" I say angrily yes I do think of him as my best friend as crazy as that may be
"Do you want me to tell you that I don't like the guy" he says standing up from the couch
I stand up too
"You don't even know him" I tell him
"You shouldn't even care about what I think anyway we don't even know anything about each other, I don't know anything about you before you came here and you probably think I'm a murder" he says walking off towards the basement door "have fun on your date"
"I will" I scream as he slams the door
