The Boy Across Enemy Lines

You're a...

So Dante and I have been on a couple dates since we admitted our feeing for each other. Well, I don’t know if I’d call them dates. We just hung out and talked like we did before any of this happened. Anyways, he’s carrying me to meet his friends. Meeting his friends makes things seem like they’re getting pretty serious. But he’s met my friends so I think it’s only fair if I meet his. Anyways, we’re meeting each other at this local arcade. I looked at myself in the mirror. My hair was straightened. I had on a simple outfit which consisted of a nice top and jeans. I had little make-up on. I looked pretty, but not like I was really trying to.

“Getting ready for a date?” A voice said from behind me. I looked at my aunt Amy through the mirror.

“No…” I said shaking my head and turning around to look at her. “Yes?” I said rethinking it. “I don’t exactly know what this is. We’re just hanging out.” I said biting my lip.

“So it is with a boy?” She asked smirking.

“Yea…” I said nodding.

“Tell me about him.” She said walking over to my bed and patting a place next to her.

“Well, his name is Dante. He’s really cute and super smart. We have a lot of similar interest. For example, we both love Shakespeare. He has the most attractive Italian accent I’ve ever heard in all of my life. And yea…” I said finishing him.

“How’d you guys meet?” She asked smiling.

“Well, he was a new student. I’m the student body president. It was kinda my job to show him around school. But, he didn’t really want a tour. Over time we became friends. We have a little show together at school. And we’ve just bonded a lot.” I said thinking back a couple months.

“Does he know you like him?” She asked.

“Yea.” I said nodding.

“And he likes you too?” She asked slowly.

“Yea.” I replied.

“Then why aren’t you guys in a relationship?” She asked raising an eyebrow.

“Well, we haven’t really been on an official date. We’ve kissed and stuff and we act like a couple, but he’s never officially asked me to be his girlfriend.” I said shrugging. My phone rang it was Dante. I put it on speaker so my Aunt Amy could hear.

“Hello.” I answered.

“I’m on my way there beautiful. You left yet?” He asked sweetly.

“No, almost done getting ready. I’ll head out in a few.” I said smiling.

“Alright, see you soon gorgeous.” He said.

“Later handsome.” I replied happily.

“Oh you guys are so cute. I don’t wanna keep you. Go on your date.” She said getting up and walking to the door.

“Not a date.” I yelled after her.

“Whatever you say.” She yelled back. I shook my head and grabbed my phone before heading out the room. I got into my car and drove to the arcade.  When I got there I texted him I was there. As I got out of my car I saw him exiting the arcade.

“Hey there gorgeous.” He said smiling.

“Hey handsome.” I replied as I reached him. He pecked my lips, causing me to smile wider. He threw his arm around my shoulder and we walked to a group of teens by the air hockey machine.

“Guys, and girl, this is Alicia. Alicia this is Noah,” He said pointing to the boy with short, kind of curly brown hair and brown eyes. He also looked Italian with very toned, defined facial features. “Logan,” he said pointing at a boy with light blonde hair and emerald green eyes. He had one of those typical pretty boy faces.  “Mason,” He pointed at this boy with lightish brown hair kind of spike up, with blue eyes with specks of green.  “And Lexi.” He said pointing at the girl. She had her long brown hair curled and dark blue eyes complimented with eye make-up.
