It was now 5 o'clock. Me and Brandon had spent the entire day just enjoying each other's company and making the most of our time we still had together before he would have to leave tomorrow. Now that I think about it, I wonder why Nick had never mentioned going back to LA so soon, but then again, he probably wanted Brandon to be the one to break the news being that there was something I needed to get off my chest as well. Speaking of which, I still haven't told Brandon, and I wasn't going to. Not now.
It was almost time for our date. As I walked into my bathroom, prepared to take a shower, my phone buzzed on the bathroom sink. I quickly walked over to it as I turned the shower on. It was a text from Edwin.
Eggwin 🐥🥚: HEY
Me: I'm about to shower so i'll text you in like 10 minutes
I sent the text and and set the phone back down on the counter. As I stepped into the shower, I heard my phone buzz again but this time I ignored it. I proceeded to wash my hair and shave my legs and armpits. Once I was done, I turned the water off and grabbed a towel. I flipped my head over and wrapped the towel around my hair, flipping it back over to grab another towel for my body.
I walked around the bathroom in nothing but a towel for the longest time before I decided to go ahead and pick out an outfit. I rummaged through my closet for over 20 minutes before I found something presentable.

Wasn't too fancy, but it was good enough. I stared at myself in the mirror for a second before a thought came to me. I turned sideways and knew that in about two months a creation would be inside of me. An actual human being. It was indescribable, the feeling I felt at that moment. My phone buzzed on the sink counter bring me out of my thoughts.
Eggwin 🐥🥚: helllooooooo??
I let a smile overtake my face as I slid open the message.
Me: wanna facetime? i'm trying to get ready for a date mr. impatient
Eggwin 🐥🥚: sure
I waited for him to call me and I set my phone up to where it was against the mirror facing me.
"LILY OH MY GOD I'VE MISSED YOU SO MUCH." He screamed as his face popped on my screen.
"I've missed you too." I chuckled, pulling my hair to one side of my head, "Hey, should I just braid it to the side or fishtail it?" I asked him. He stared at the screen for a second, his eyebrows furrowing together as he thought.
"Fishtail it." he said, making me smile, "So you're going on a date with Brandon?" he questioned, making my cheeks flush.
"Yep." I said, continuing to do my hair, "We're supposed to be leaving at 7 and I still haven't done my makeup." I said, beginning to panic.
"Calm down, Lily. It's only like 6:32 right?" I nodded my head as and he continued on with his encouragement speech as I proceeded to do my makeup. "Wow I should become a motivational speaker or something." he said, making me laugh.
I continued with my makeup until I was satisfied with it. "Alright Edwin, how do I look?" I said, stepping back so that he has a full view of my outfit as well as my hair and makeup.
"PERF." He said in a weird voice, obviously trying to sound like a girl. "I'm about to go eat, but have fun on your date Lils, It's what you deserve. I'll text you later." he said before saying his goodbye and hanging up.
I grabbed my phone and the purse that was hanging on the door of my closet before placing my phone inside, along with a few other things I would need tonight.
"Baby, you look beautiful." Brandon said as I walked downstairs. Him and Nick were standing by the stairs talking about lord knows what before I had made an appearance. Nick wandered off into the kitchen soon after I reached the bottom step, which worried me, but I decided to let it go.
"You don't look too bad yourself." I said, wiggling my eyebrows as my brown eyes scanned over him.

"You look very handsome as a matter of fact." I added as he took my hand in his, leading me outside to his car.
We drove in comfortably silence to the restaurant for our date. We haven't gone on a date since he's asked me out, but it was alright because of how much time we had spent together over the summer. I'm not the type of girl who particularly likes fancy dates because I would much rather lounge around together, eat food and binge watch netflix.
30 minutes into the date and I had already used the bathroom four times. He's gonna start asking questions and i'm gonna crack. We ate our food in silence until he excused himself to use the bathroom. Soon after he left, his phone lit up on the table in front of me.
'Charlotte'
I picked up the phone and answered the facetime call. Seconds later, a brunette popped up on the screen. She seemed to be around our age but she seemed more mature.
"Can I help you?" I asked. I wasn't trying to come off bitchy or rude, but I was genuinely curious to who this girl was and why she was facetiming my boyfriend.
Before she could answer, Brandon came back to the table. He looked nervous once he saw that I had his phone and was face to face with the girl. "Brandon? Who's this?" Charlotte said from the phone.
"Oh, Uh shes just a friend." Brandon said, slowly taking a seat. What the actual fuck did he just say? His eyes widened as I stood to my feet. I tossed his phone back onto the table, leaving him in shock.
"Have fun in LA, you fucking asshole." I hissed, walking out of the restaurant and called my mom to pick me up.
This is fucking ridiculous. Immature bastard. Is he embarrassed to be with me? ashamed? Who even was that girl? I'm not even gonna cry, I've cried too many times this week. There probably aren't even any more tears in my body. I could taste blood in my mouth as I bit my lip waiting on my mother's arrival.
The whole ten minutes I waited outside for my mom, he never came out once. He didn't even try to fight for me.
