I took look in mirror and smiled I was happy, actually happy. I wasn’t that bored girl with a boring life who did boring things. Now I had excitement in my life now I had Seth well I didn’t quite have him yet. I was also happy about my outfit it was cute but simple I had on a white strapless dress a little bit above my knees I wasn’t really a dress type of girl but this occasion was special and now for hair well that just worked itself. All of my friends say I’m pretty and I guess I am. I had long blonde wavy hair and dark blue eyes but don’t get me wrong they were nothing like Seth’s beautiful dreamy eyes but yeah I was decent looking, I have had quite a few boys ask me out and I’m not gonna lie I haven’t really said yes to non of them because they weren’t Seth.

“Lena Seth’s here!” My mom yells.

He is finally here it was almost 6:30 as usual Seth was “Fashionably late.” I walk down the hallway, down the stairs trying not to run. When I look up there he is with his gorgeous  look that makes me want to run up to him and just kiss him but I had to wait for the perfect moment after all it was my first kiss I know your saying what you haven’t kiss a boy before?! but the people and the timing was never right I wanted this to be perfect and I guess it’s not that bad I know I’m a major loser for waiting this long but I just turned 16.

“Hi Seth”

“Hey Lena, You look beautiful!” Beautiful? I remember when I was 11 you considered me dorky but beautiful totally works.

“Thanks” I say and smile

“Come on in and have some food If my Dad didn’t manage to mess it up.

“I’m sure its eatable.” he lets out a small laugh.

Every single time my Dad would cook it wasn’t the best experience but the way mom wants to have the perfect ideal family she makes Dad do the barbeques to show all their friends that he is good for something instead of working, that sounds super harsh but its true. I loved my Dad and he was a workaholic he worked 24 but that is just how he is and as hard as it may be not spending as much time as I would like to with my Dad I try to accept it.

We walked to a small table near the tree house boy that tree house bring back so much memories.

He takes a seat I sit right beside him

“Wow you guys still have that tree house huh?”

“Yeah”

“Remember all the fun times we had in that tree house”

I loved that tree house I would never get rid of it. I even remember that we used to have our own secret club but there were only two members me and Seth. Taylor used to get so jealous of me and Seth making secret clubs and stuff without her. Speaking of Taylor she didn’t make it to my barbeque. She never comes to the barbeques at my place because her grandma always throws this big 4th of July party where she invites pretty much everyone but she lives 2 hours away so I never really go and plus most of friends want to spend 4th of July with their family. I was lucky Seth’s Mom is still friends my Mom so she would invite her too.

“I know right we had so much fun.”

After that we talked and ate my dad’s awful tasting hotdogs and hamburgers and of course we pretended to like it.
