"Tammy! The game starts in two hours, get up!" My mom awoke me from my peaceful sleep. I haven't slept this well in weeks.

I sat up in my bed and immediately smiled when I remembered what happened last night. I started to chuckle at myself for being so love struck.

My mom suddenly burst through my door to see if I had woken up. One of her eyebrows raised when she saw me smiling.

"What did I miss?" She said leaning against my door.

"Not much. Just life." I said looking down and fidgeted with my sheets still smiling.

"Mhm, well I guess life is making you smile a lot more now." She sat at the end of my bed. "When you came home last night you couldn't stop smiling and went straight to your room. You only talked to me when I asked you how it was and you answered with 'uh-huh' and went to bed."

I laughed for how I reacted last night. After what happened I couldn't think straight at all.

"So? What happened last night?" She said placing her hand on my knee, which was still under the covers.

I looked up at her, "We kissed."

Her eyes widened and placed her hands over her mouth before jumping up and down in excitement. I giggled at her expression.

"You kissed?! Oh my gosh!" She gushed, causing me to laugh harder at her.

"You NEED to tell me the details. Now!" She said sitting down quickly. Oh my lord she's acting like a cheesy teenager which made me laugh at her again.

"Okay so, the night was normal until I saw that Ethan and Grayson kept whispering about something, so I went over to them and asked what the hell is going on. They just said 'oh it's nothing'" I said imitating a guy's voice. "Then me and Syd went to dance, but I was still kinda suspicious. But after like a half hour, Syd told me she and Ethan are going to have their alone time now. Not that they need  much more." I chuckled and she smiled. "I then went over to Gray, to keep him company, and then he asked if I wanted to go outside for our alone time and of course I said yes."

My mom raised her eyebrow and smirked, "He asked for it, huh?"

"We didn't intend for it to go like that." I giggled. "Just like friendly alone time without Ethan and Sydney's lovey dovey shit." We chuckled. "Anyway, we went outside to the lacrosse bleachers and sat there and talked. And well, next thing you know we were looking at each other in the eyes in the silence... and we kissed." I smiled even bugger than I did while telling the story at the last part.

I still can't believe it.

"Ahhhh" she groaned and fell back on my bed. "When last did your father do something romantic for me?" She sighed and chuckled.

"Well, you guys could always go tonight? I mean it's a Saturday, do you have anything better to do?" I said pulling her up.

"I guess we can. Then maybe you could invite someone, maybe Grayson, to accompany you while we're gone." She smirked again.

"Stop!" I chuckled. "Not everything we do is romantic. He's my best friend, I treat him like one and also like a romantic interest."

"Whatever." She smiled and stood up. "You can invite him. No one else." She winked and I giggled again at her goofyness.

"I will, Ma." I smiled.

"Now get up! You need to show everyone at that game that you're Grayson's girl!" She shouted back at me as she walked through the hallway.

I rolled my eyes smiling and finally got up. I quickly made my bed and made my way to the bathroom to get cleaned.

Just as I got out of the shower, I heard my phone ring and I rushed to my desk, where it was charging, while I was still soaking wet and answered the phone without looking at who it was.
