The First Date

Amber's POV

I wake up at about 9:30am to make sure that I'm on time for my online class. I go downstairs to make me some breakfast. I see Christina and Camryn are already up watching Netflix.

"Good morning guys", I greet them.

"Good morning", they say looking back at their screen.

"Are you excited for your date with Jack today", asks Christina pausing the TV.

I smile. "Yeah."

"Good. So when you guys become a thing, that means I can get closer to Jonah", Camryn says.

I laugh at her as I pour my milk into my Cinnamon Toast Crunch. I walk upstairs for class. When I walk into my office and open my Mac Book Pro, I get a call from my teacher saying that my second class got canceled because she has to take her daughter to the doctor. I say ok.

My  class is just history so it's really easy. When I'm done, I decide to go work out at the gym. I take my bowl downstairs and put in the dishwasher.

"Guys I'm going to the gym. You wanna come", I say to them.

"Nah we're good. We'll go later", Camryn says.

I nod then head upstairs to get ready. I put on leggings from Pink, a matching sports bra from Pink, and a Pink jacket. I love stuff from Pink as you can tell. I put on my Nike sneakers and go to the gym.

It's 10:50AM when I get to the gym so I decide to work out until 11:30. I mostly work on my core, arms, and legs. When I'm leaving the gym, I meet this nice girl that's seventeen (my age) and we talk for a good ten minutes. We exchange numbers and I say we should hang out some time. Her name was Danielle.

When I leave I remember that I need some groceries. So I go to the store and I get some more food.

I look at my phone and the time reads 11:55.

"Oh gosh", I say and start driving faster. I can't be late for my date. I hurry home and hop in the shower. I do my hair in two Princess Leia buns. I put on a little bit of makeup.

I throw on some light wash jeans with a Gucci belt, a sleeveless red top, and some red Jordans. I put my groceries away.

"You look cute", Christina says to me while putting me on Snapchat, "yes best friend!" 

I smile.

"Yes you look scute", says Camryn smiling.

"Thank you", I say.

I get a text from Jack:

Jack- hey sorry I'm gonna be a little late because of traffic.

Amber- hey it's ok I'll wait

Jack- I can't wait to see you

My stomach flips.

Amber- I can't wait to see you either.

"I'm gonna go to Mariah's so she can take some pictures of me", I say to Christina and Camryn.

"Bye", they say as I'm grabbing my crossbody.

"Bye", I say smiling and heading out the door.

When I am done posting the picture that Mariah took of me, Jack pulls up in my driveway. I walk over and give him a hug. Ugh he smells so good.

"Hey", I say.

"Hey" he says. Then we let go.

"You look gorgeous", he smiles.

I blush. "Thank you. You look amazing too", I say.

"Thanks", he replies adorably.

"You ready", he asks gesturing towards his Mercedes Benz.

I nod.

We walk over to the passenger seat and he opens the door for me. I look at my window and I see Camryn and Christina looking out the window smiling like doofuses. Christina fans herself, batting her eyebrows saying "oh Jack you're so cute!"

I roll my eyes and get in the car. The carnival is about twenty minutes from my house so we talk the whole way. We laugh and tell each other funny stories from our past.

"I am so happy that you asked me on this date", I say.

"I'm happy that you agreed to it", he says.

I laugh at his joke.

"No really. You guys are cool. I'm happy to be friends with you all. Best friends", I say looking into his eyes.

He keeps looking at me smiling. Thank God we're at a red light.

"I am too", he says putting his hand on top of mine. There goes my stomach again.

"To be honest I tried to not parade you all with hugs after the show", I confess a little embarrassed.

He smiles again. "That would've been cute." 

We then pull up to the carnival and we get the wristbands to ride anything we want. We walk around wondering what to ride and then we see a roller coaster that looks lit. We agree on that one.

We wait in line. When we wait in line I am greeted by a bunch of fans. I take pictures with them and we all talk. "Is he your boyfriend", this fan asks looking at Jack.

"No he's just a friend", I say laughing nervously.

"Then why are you guys holding hands", she asks.

I look down and notice we're holding hands and we both let go. I blush. Like hard.

When it's our turn to ride, I get so excited. One to be away from the fans and two to ride this.

"Are you scared of roller coasters", Jack asks me as we get buckled in.

"Oh no", I say.

"Me neither", he says looking forward. I stare at him. It should be a crime for someone to be this gorgeous. And at that the roller coaster takes off.

Jack's POV

As soon as the ride takes off, Amber starts screaming. It's the cutest thing ever. I am so happy that I am on this date with her.

On the drop she grabs my hand and squeezes it. She screams louder and closes her eyes. It should be a crime for someone to be this cute.

We go on ten more rides and then get some Chinese food. 

I then ask the waitress to take a picture of us. I don't post it though. I know how rude some fans can be sometimes with seeing us with girls. So I ask Amber not to post it.

We head to take her home and it's about 6:30pm when we get there. I open the door for her and we hug in her driveway.

"I had an amazing time", she says with her head on me.

"Me too", I say. Then we let go.

I walk her to her door and she opens it.

"Thank you", she says turning around shining that beautiful smile.

"No problem", I say, "see you later."

She closes the door and I walk back to my car.

This was one of the best nights of my life.
