From Broken Hearted To A New Beginning

Chapter 11

Angela

"I know we spent all last night together but do you want to spend the day together too? You know, like catch up." Trey texted me. Since we were cool now I didn't hesitate to text back. "Sure." I put my phone on the charger just to make sure I had enough battery to last me the whole day. 30 minutes had passed and Trey still wasn't here-not surprised. I texted him where was he and in less than 3 seconds he replied "on my way." When he meant that he was on his way, he meant it. Not to long after he had text me back he was knocking on my front door. I kissed my mom on the cheek and told her "see you later" then walked out the house to meet Trey. Even though we were in the 10th grade Trey already had his license. He gave me a hug when I came out and then walked behind me to his car. "So where were you planning on going?" I asked while bucking my seat belt. "You'll see." he said half-smilingly.

After about 20 minutes of driving we finally got to our first destination-Cici's Pizza. I looked at the clock and it read 12:00pm. I didn't even notice it was that late. I looked at Trey with my "Are you serious?" look and he replied with a head nod. We got out the car and walked to the entrance of the place. "Why are we here?" I asked before we went in. "I told you you'll see. Keep clam and just trust me." He took me by my hand and we walked in. At first I didn't want people to see us like this and think we were dating but then I came to realize that I really didn't care. He paid for the both of us and after getting our food he walked me to the back of the restaurant. Still confused, I decided to look at Trey with one of my "looks" again to see if I could get him to tell me the point of all this. And again, he ignored my look and said the same thing he had said before-"You'll see."

We left Cici's at almost 1:00. Me being a girl, started looking in all the clothing store windows they had at the shopping center we were at. When we got to Rainbows I was astonished. They had a high-low, purple strapless dress on sale for $10. "TREY!!" I yelled to the top of my lungs acting like a little child. "What??" he said sarcastically and half screaming back. I rolled my eyes and pointed to the dress. "I HAVE to get it! Please I swear on my life I'll pay you back if you could just buy this one thing for me!" I begged him. "I don't know.." he started. "Seems kind of expensive..." "EXPENSIVE!? Trey it's cheaper than our lunch!" At that moment he burst into laughter looking like he was about to pass out. "Why are you laughing? This ain't funny. I'm standing her begging for a dress that someone could get before me and you're laughing." "I'm la-I'm laughing because you-you're actually acting like a little kid over a damn dress." He replied laughing between breaths. "Like damn, you act like you going to die without the thing. It's just clothes." I let out a sigh and started to walk the other way when I felt him grab my arm. "Where you going? You do know I never said that I WASN'T going to buy it." "That's what it seemed like." I replied before getting out of his grip. Before I could walk way from him he took me by my arm again and started leading me into the store. "Ang, go get the dress. You should know by now I fuck with you a lot and that if you really want something I'd get it for you. " I thought about what he said while walking to the dress. He was right. Even though we hadn't talked for I don't know how long, I should've known him by now considering that fact that I been knowing him since we were kids. I was just being a spoiled bitch. I looked back at Trey with my "I'm sorry look."-don't judge me; I have a lot of looks- and he responded by mouthing "it's ok" and telling me to hurry up. I got the dress and met him by the register. He paid for my dress and I thanked him. "I'm sorry I was being a bitch over a stupid dress. Thank you for still buying it for me." I told him on our way to his car. "I told you, it's ok. I knew you were going to do that. You're Angela Nicole August." he said smiling at me. I couldn't help but smile back but still had to act dumb and ask, "And what does that have to do with anything?" He started to laugh and as soon as we got in the car he answered my question. " It means that you ARE a bitch..." and before I could hit him he interrupted me by saying "I'm just kidding chill...it means that you're you and no matter what, you're going to do whatever you can to get what you want." I smiled at him satisfied with his answer and sat back in my seat ready for him to take me to our next destination. Maybe I am starting to feel Trey again...but I still don't think I'm ready to be with him quite yet.
