Meeting half way

Chapter Five: Milkshakes and movies

Gwen

Finally.

He is finally gone, Finn was only here an hour but it felt like days. He first dissed my air guitar and then he argued with me about love and fate. Who does this guy think he is? I mean doubting the idea of fate and true love. Maybe not everyone finds their true love at first but it doesn't mean their soul mate isn't out there, it just means they havn't found them yet. I know that my soul mate is out their and he is the perfect match for me.

I am so ready to start my mellow weekend with only me, sour gummy worms, and my books. Sounds like heaven.

I am about to change out of my clothes and into some sweats when my cell phone rings.

"hello," I say into the phone.

"Gwen hey, its Ange and Gigi. What are you doing right now?" Ange asks from the phone.

" Um....I am...um," I respond into the phone. I try picking my words carefully because I know if Ange found out what I am really doing she will make me go out with her and Gigi.

"Let me guess, you are lying in your bed wearing PJ's, eating candy and reading," Ange says in her know it all voice. She knows me to well, I need a cover up quick!

"What? No.....I am just.... you know.....," I say and then I realize I lost this battle. Ange is going to force me to leave my house. Why!?

"Change back into your clothes, grab your purse, we are coming to get you in about 10 mins," says before hanging up. I have no way out of this, I better kiss my weekend plans goodbye.

I change into a pair of black leggings and a tan sweater. I slip on my converse and grab my purse before climbing down the stairs. I walk into the living room to see my mom and dad cuddling on the couch.

"Hey, I am going out with Ange and Gigi I will be back around 9:30," I say to them before slipping out the door.

"Alright honey have fun," My dad yells in response.

Ange pulls up in her red hybrid and honks. I scurry down the stairs and hop into the back seat of her car. I really like Ange's car, it has dark brown leather seats and it is always clean. Gigi is sitting in the passenger seat, and Ange's eyes are on the road.

"So....where are we going?" I ask Gigi who is texting some one on her phone. Gigi turns so she is facing me. Gigi just like Ange, is stunning. She has curly brown hair that stops around her elbow, and eletric blue eyes. " We are going to get some food and then a movie. Sounds better than books and gummy worms, right?" Gigi says before turning back around and looking at me through the front view mirror. " No, gummy worms and books sound better," I mumble to myself. " I heard that Gwen," Gigi says before smiling at me.

We arrive at a small diner and get out of the car. As we open the door to the diner a bell rings and the smell of fries and hambugers enters my nose. I wasn't hungry since I already ate but I decide to order a strawberry milkshake anyway.

" So Gwen..is it ok if Steve and Nick join us for the movie," Ange asks as Gigi smiles at me as if my answer would change her life. Steve and Nick are Ange and Gigi's boy friends. They are cool guys, but they always end up hanging out with us when it is surpose to be just us. I am always the awkward Fourth wheel, I have to watch them make out in front of me and everything. Gross.

" Guys... really again. You guys invited them again," I whine.

"Please, please. It won't be that bad. We promise to not ingore you at all," Gigi promises and Ange nodds her head. " No gross makeout session in front of me? And no leaving me alone with them while you guys go to the bathroom to freshen up," I say looking both of them in the eye before agreeing.

" yeah! I will text Steve right now," Ange squeals. I take a long sip of my milkshake and sigh. This is going to be a long night.

We meet up with Steve and Nick while walking to the theater which is only about a five minute walk from the diner. Right now the two happy couples are about three feet behind me.

" Hey Nick, I thought that guy was coming, you know Finn the new guy," Steve asks Nick. My whole Body perks up at the sound of his name.

" Oh yeah he is meeting us at the theater," Nick says answering Steve.

Finn.Is.Here.

Please let it be another Finn, even though I would know if there was another Finn living here. This night is just getting worse by the second. I can't believe this is happening, why does it have to be Finn? Any one else would be stand able, but really Finn. Now my friends are going to leave me alone with finn, I can already imagine it happening.

Now lets just hope the movie doesn't suck too.
