Remember to Forget

Chapter Three

"Thanks for showing me around town today, Andy, you never introduced me to anyone though, now that I think about it." I said to Andy.

"It was my pleasure, and did you ever think I wanted to keep you to myself?" he said, messing around. "Ha ha Andy, well you'll just have to hang out with me at school when it starts in two days until I meet some more people!"

"Oh no! Anything but having to hang around with you! How will I survive? It's not like we're doing that right  now or anything!" he said, laughing. "Oh ho ho, aren't you ever the jokester. Guess I'll just have to embarass you at school. I could always tell everyone about the thing you did when you were six and you-" "Okay! Okay. Let's not do that, I'll stop joking around at your expense." he said, quickly cutting me off.

"That's what I thought. You should of never told me that! Now I can use it as blackmail." I said evilly.

"Don't worry, I'll find something about you embarrassing enough eventually, Yas, you just wait." he said, smirking.

"Pft, yeah okay. Well we're at my house, I'll text you later or something, bye Andy!" I said, remembering about my surprise. "Bye, Yasmine. Tell me what your surprise is later."

"Okay! See ya." I said, walking inside.

"MOM! DAD! I'M HOME!" I yelled out. "Come up to your room to see your surprise, honey!" my mom called. Oh goodness, I can't wait!

"Where's my su-" I started saying until I fully took in my room.

"OH MY GOLLY! Did you guys do this while I was gone?!" I said, nearly speechless. They redecorated my room. It's now teal and green, my two favorite colors, and they got new furniture and everything!

"Yes, do you like it?" my dad asked, smiling at my reaction.

"LIKE IT? I love it! Thanks you guys!" I said in response. "Aw, honey, we are also going to give you two hundred dollars to go shopping tomorrow to get either stuff for your room or video games or whatever it is you want. We went ahead and set up your Xbox and PlayStation to your tv."

"Thank you! I'll text Andy and see if he wants to come later." As soon as I said Andy, my mom gave me a knowing look. "What's that look for, mom? I asked her, already knowing. "Well it just seems to me that you have a crush on Andy, I don't know how far you can let this go, dear. Friends are okay, but a relationship is a whole new ballgame. Remember why we are here, it's just that I don't think it'd be fair for Andy." she said, scared to see my reaction.

"Mom, I know. I don't even like him like that anyway, he is completely in the friendzone, not coming out of there. I'm going to go ahead to bed now, I've had too many social interactions today for my little awkward teen heart to handle, love you guys." I said, not trying to show how sad her words made me. "Goodnight Lay." they said together, not using my fake name since no one was around.

I sent Andy a quick text, asking if he wanted to go shopping with me tomorrow.

Shopping? Men don't shop! I guess I'll go though, seeing as I'm your only friend.

~Lady Killer Andy~

Yeah,  no thanks to you buttface! :P Is your signature on your phone really 'Lady Killer Andy'? LOL. Sure you're a lady killer. Welp since I fulfilled my obligation of telling you my surprise I'm going to bed. Goodnight, lady killer ;)

Goodnight, Yazzy-Wazzy.

~Lady Killer Andy~

I really do like Andy. In a totally platonic way, not anything more. Pft. Maybe if I keep telling myself that it'll come true.

I woke up early enough, some may not consider ten to be early but I do, so I decided I'd walk over to Andy's house and pick him up.

*DING DONG*

Dang, his doorbell is really loud.

"Yas? Wow, you're up early, well for it being you." he said, answering the door.

"Yeah, I know. I'm ready to go SHOPPING. I decided I'd come pick you up for a change. Lets go!" I said excitedly. "Oh, are you driving?" he asked, knowing perfectly well that I wasn't driving.

"No, you know I don't have my license yet, stop rubbing it in. Now let's GO!" I said, feigning annoyed. "Okay okay. Where to first."

"The mall. There's one store I want to go to then we can head over to my house and party!" I said, remembering Game Stop to be at the mall.

"Okay, I would be relieved, seeing as we're going to only one store, but then I have to remember you're a girl so we'll probably be in that one store for five hours." he said, acting exhausted already. 

"You sure have a lot of stereotypes there, lady killer." I said back. "Now shut up and drive, Bon Jovi is on!" I said, preparing for a rock session.

"Bon Jovi? Really?" he asked. "Yes, really! Bon Jovi is good on occasion." I said, acting like it was the most obvious thing ever.

I cranked up the stereo and we started singing along.

"I'M A COWBOY! ON A STEEL HORSE i RIDE! I'M WANTED, WAAAANTED, DEAD OR ALIIIIIVE."

We continued our classic rock jam out until we got to the mall.

"Okay, what store are we going to?" Andy asked.

"Game Stop of course. I've been wanting a few games and this cash is itching to get spent on happiness." I said. "Game Stop? Are you sure you're a girl?" he asked, looking at me like he can't believe I actually want to go in a gaming store.

"Uh yeah, I'm pretty sure. Unless guys are supposed to have a vagina? No? Didn't think so. Now let's go!" I said, dragging him upstairs to the store.

"Hello, welcome to Game Stop. Do you need help finding anything?" this guy, who looked my age and pretty darn cute if I say so myself.

"Yes, please. I'm looking for LIMBO and The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess for the Xbox." I said, not remembering what the other game I wanted was.

"Right this way."

"Andy, does he go to our school?" I asked, quietly so only Andy could hear me.

"Yeah, I don't really know him at all though. I think I may of had a class with him. Why?" he asked, looking at me questioningly. "Just wondering." I said, following behind the worker guy.

"Here you go, do you want them new or used?" he asked me at the cash register.

"New please." I answered.

"Okay, your total is ninety-eight dollars and sixty two cents." he said. "Here's a hundred, you can just keep the change." I said. I don't like getting change back from people, you always awkwardly caress their hands by accident.

I'm weird, I know.

"Thank you, have a good day." he said.

"YAY! Now let's go back home and have a game session! I've been wanting to play LIMBO for a really long time." I said.

"You realize LIMBO is a one player game, right?" Andy asked. "Yeah, you can paly one of my games on my computer if you'd like. I have World of Warcraft, League of Legends, and Diablo 3." I said, glancing over at him.

"You don't strike me as the type to play any of those. I'll play Diablo 3, though, I've been wanting to play but I haven't gotten the game yet." Andy said. "What do you mean I don't seem like the type? What type of people play those games?" I asked. "Frankly nerds, like myself and many others, not hot chicks." he answered.

"Well I'm a nerd! I may not seem like it but oh ho ho ho, I am. You'll see soon enough. Now let's go!" I said, rambling a bit because I was trying not to blush or react to him calling me hot.

"Okay, Yas. Time to get our game on!" he said, driving off away from the mall.
