As I come to school early in the morning Zino is already waiting at my locker. He has a beautiful smile on his face and he's holding a rose for me.

My lips are barley touching his cheek as a thank you, which widens his grin.

"Do you want to do something after school?" I ask.

"Sure, darling."

At lunch, Zino strolls up to our table and cockily sits with a smirk on his face.

"Tonight's the night."

I grab my fork tighter and stare down on my plate. Fuck, they are on their sixth date already!

Cora

We're almost at my house. We've had a great date and I'm hoping Zino will kiss me tonight. It's like he knows what I'm thinking about because he puts his hand on my knee and smiles at me.

When we pull up at my house I let him walk me to the door and as we're standing outside on the porch, Zino leans in to kiss me, but Dad opens the front door and interrupts us. I glance at Zino. He looks really frustrated.
