Senior Year Checklist

Chapter 44

Natalie POV

It was not easy trying to convince my parents to let me keep the cat, my dad isn't really a animal person.

After begging and showing them how cute the cat is they finally agreed to let me keep her.

"So Rose got you a cat?" Holden laughs as we clean the tables at the diner

"Yeah and I get to keep her" I smile

"What are you going to name her?" He asks me

I bite my lip trying to think of a name "i can't think of one. Have any suggestions?" I ask him

He thinks for a second "how about rey?" He suggest " I mean you do love Star Wars"

"That's perfect" I smile, he smiles back

I look over and see Jason walk into the diner and he's by himself, I quickly pull out my phone and text Rose.

Me: you should come to the diner

Rose: why?

Me: because... Jason here and he's alone

Rose: I'll be right there! Your an awesome wing woman

Me: I know!

Not even 15 minutes later I see Rose walking in.

Rose POV

I fix my hair before I walk into the diner.

"That was fast" Natalie smirks walking over to me

"I wanted to get here before he left" I say and look over and see him sitting at the counter

"Good luck" Natalie tells me and gives me a wink before she walks away

I try as causally as possible and sit next to him at the counter, I try and act like I don't even see him sitting next to me.

"Rose?" Jason says to me

I look over at him and try to act surprised that he's here "o hey Jason" I smile

"How have you been?" He asks me

"I've been great" I smile

"That's good" he smirks "I actually glad I rain into you"

"O yeah?" I smirk and raise an eyebrow

"I was wondering if you wanted to go out Friday?" He asks me with a look that reads he knows I'm going to say yes

I try to act like I'm thinking about it "I would love too" I smile

I notice he's already done eating.

"Well I got to go but I'll be seeing you" he smirks and gets up and walks away

"Yes!" I squeal loud that makes the diner goers look at me crazy

Natalie POV

I look over at Rose and try not to laugh.

"So it went well?" I smirk as I come over to the other side of the counter and act like I'm cleaning

"I got a date with Jason on Friday" she says in a sing song tone

I playfully roll my eyes "what's so great about him again?" I can't help but ask

"He's like the hottest guy in school" roses says like how do I not know that

"If you say so" I mumble

"Is the counter clean enough?" Holden walks over and smirks

I wipe it down one more time then turn to him and smirk back "now it is"

"Hey Holden can I have a piece of pie?" Rose asks him
