Is He the One?

Chatper 5: The slip up

When I was completely ready I got my little cross over pink purse.

I checked the mirror again and sat and waited for Jeremiah.

My phone started ringing it was Jeremiah.

"Hey are you ready?" He commented

"Yes are you?" I said running down stairs.

"Well duh why would I ask you it you were ready and then say I wasn't?" He said laughing.

"I'm on my way over." I said annoyed.

I walked outside and locked my door and continued walking over to his house.

He was waiting in the car messing with the stereo.

I jumped in and slammed the door a little loud, "let's go!" I said smiling.

"Alright." He said back amused.

We sat listening to the music and I kept thinking about what Kendra and me had talked about all day.

Do I like him? No, no way. I can't like him. That's bad really bad.

Jeremiah looked at me with a questionable tone like he was studying my expression.

I looked over after I realized it.

"What?" I said to him.

"Nothing you just look, kinda upset like you're trying to argue with yourself." He responded.

"Just watch the road." I fired back laughing.

"Are you okay?" He said being actually seriously interested.

"Yes I'm fine" I jumped back at him.

I mean obviously I wouldn't tell him "oh no I'm just trying to figure out if I like you" no, not going to happen.

Still peaking over at me every couple seconds Jeremiah didn't say anything else.

"So are you excited?" I said trying to break the awkwardness.

"Yeah! Ive been getting more and more excited as the day drags on!" Jeremiah said perking up some.

"Me too, actually me and Kendra went dress shopping today, it's funny we kinda talked about y-" I paused, "nevermind."

"What? You talked about me?" He rushed back.

Crap, crap, crap, crap, CRAP!

"Um no I was going to say your friend your best guy friend, Marcus.

"Why were you talking about Marcus?" He said back.

"Well I um, Kendra kinda likes him" I said covering it up...sorry Kendra.

"Really?" Jeremiah said back looking excited.

"Um, yeah, sure why?" I said.

"He likes her too!" He said.

Wow good job Violet you accidentally just set your best friend up with your other best friends, best friend I mean come on.

"Well she will be thrilled" I looked out the window.

We were almost to the concert now after an hour and a half awkward car ride.

"Wow look!! There's the stadium." Said Jeremiah.

I just nodded and looked at it.

When we finally found a parking spot far away from the entrance and parked Jeremiah stopped and looked over at me.

"Violet, what's going on with you" he put his hand on my thigh.

After looking at his hand then back at his beautiful big brown eyes, I just froze.
