Between You and Me

~~15~~

The day of the party at the Samuels' home. Considering my spare period was last, I was going home to get ready. Shilo and Abbie were skipping their last period and would meet me at my house.

If you're wondering what happened with my mum, it's been awkward. She won't look me in the eye for more than a few seconds. I hate that she saw what she did with Oliver and I, but I'm not sorry that we did it.

Abbie and Shilo still don't know. I'm going to tell them while we get ready tonight. I know their reaction will be ridiculous, and I'm hoping they can control themselves when Oliver picks me up for dinner. But who am I kidding, this is Abbie and Shilo, they won't even try to control themselves.

My phone suddenly rings, I smile when I see the caller ID, "Hey Olly."
"Hey babe. Are we still on for tonight?"
"Of course. You didn't think I'd ditch did you?"
He laughs, "I don't know anyone who would ditch me."
"Alright Mr. Cocky. I'll see you soon."
"Yes you will."

I smile again and slide my phone back into my pocket, already on my way to my locker to put my things away and head home.

"Was that lover boy?" I turn and see Shilo heading my way, after all she is giving me a ride home.
"No that was Oliver." I deadpan.
She rolls her eyes and laughs, "Same thing."

I shake my head and we head out to her Jeep parked at the far left of the parking lot, bickering the whole time.

She's become a really great friend. She might be nosy and irritating most of the time, but she's supportive and just wants the best for me and Abbie. I've never met anyone like her. My friends in my old town weren't really friends. They were more like acquaintances. But I know that Shilo has my back, and I can openly call her a friend because she fulfills the criteria on a daily basis.

Once we get into her car we spend the entire drive to my house trying to gain and keep control of the radio station. She keeps changing in back to Justin Bieber, and that's just where I cross the line.

"Okey lets do this. Abbie will be here soon."
"Work your magic, o wise one." I smile at Shilo as she attacks my face with makeup brushes.

About an hour later, my face is all made up with bright red lips and smoky eye with my hair lightly curled and hanging around my face.

I dug this dress out of the back of my closet from my old life. It was a black one shoulder tank top strap that flared out slightly at my waist. To tie it all together I took out my red lace up wedges and put them on my feet.

"Oh wow. You look amazing Sage." Shilo admires her handiwork from a few steps away in my bedroom.
"Oliver won't be able to keep his hands off you tonight." Abbie winks at me, starting to wrap up her curling iron.
I glance to my bed and feel my cheeks start to heat up, "Well, about that."

I stand awkwardly, trying to figure out how to say this without them losing their minds. I have their undivided attention so I decide to just come right out.

"Yesterday, we kinda came here on our spare. We uh, you know." I pointedly stare at my bed, trying to get them to understand.
"Oh my god. You guys did the nasty!" Shilo's face breaks into a smile while Abbie screeches in excitement.
"Was be good? Wait were you a virgin?" Abbie fires off, her attention entirely on me.
"Yes." I sit down on the bed where just yesterday Oliver and I fooled around, "Really good, actually. And no, I was not."
"Wow, really good huh? Okay it's official," Abbie looks at Shilo and they nod once, "We ship it."

I laugh and head over to give them both a hug, thanking them for doing me up. Just then my phone pings, telling me Oliver is here to pick me up.
