"Leia. I don't like this." Michael hissed as she climbed out of his truck and bounded toward Alyssa's front door.

"Come on you look great! You even fucking showered. Let's go!" she whispered harshly like Alyssa might hear.

"But Leia.." Michael groaned.

"Quite whining and knock on the door. I want to see her face!" she shooed him to the front door and Micahel grumbeled under his breathe as he rung the doorbell. At Leia's insistency he had brought flowers. Or a flower. A single white rose. They're her favorite. Leia emphasized earlier when she made him make a stop at the flower shop.

"Maybe she's not home." Michael hissed and Leia waved him away.

"Nonesense! She wouldn't miss a date with someone as hot as you." Leia reaches out and ruffles his hair just as the front door opens. Alyssa gasps when she sees Michael standing there with the flower.

"Michael!"She says surprised, moving in to hug him as a thank you.

"Oh! Whoa." Michael replies nervously patting her back lightly. Leia giggles behind him. Michael wishes he could see her face so he could glare at her.

"This is going to be so much fun!" Alyssa cried out.

"Oh yeah, it is." I said trying to sound as enthusiastic as her. "Come on." I said motioning for her to follow him to the truck. Unfortunately, Leia gave up the seat next to him so Alyssa could sit there. Michael tried not to groan.

Ashton was going to meet them at the restaurant, downtown. It was a sitting one and not fast food like Michael had wanted. Leia had called that, "Childish." To which Michael had replied with,

"We're teenagers Leia who cares if it's childish. You know who is going to have to pay for this? Ashton and I." Michael bit his tongue so he wouldn't say, "or maybe just me because Ashton is questionable and I don't like having him hang around you." He wanted to say that so badly but he knew it would upset Leia and he didn't want to upset her.

"Ashton isn't a teenager." Leia had said as she liked her hair up on top of her head. She wanted to put it in a bun or perhaps a ponytail but didn't like how it looked and everything had to be perfect tonight. For her and for Michael. Michael was staring at her like she was crazy. "Okay, he's nineteen but still legally an adult." Leia corrected herself with a shrug of her shoulders. Michael ran a hand through his hair.

"Nineteen?" He demanded. "You're only seventeen Leia!" He exclaimed. He wanted to rip his hair up from its dyed roots.

"So? You're eighteen and you're going to be dating Alyssa." Leia said, placing a bobby pin between her lips as she began fixing her bangs so she could pin them back. Michael refrained himself from saying he didn't want to date Alyssa.

"That's not the same thing." Michael replied through his teeth.

"Michael, I know you're my best friend but I like Ashton. Please don't be rude to him. I want you two to get along." Leia pleaded with him as she stuck the bobby pin in her hair before turning to him. Her wide, pleading eyes made Michael groan.

"I'll be nice to him but he better be civil back." He grumbled out finally. Leia squealed and hugged him tightly. Sighing Michael wrapped his arms around her wishing he was doing this as her boyfriend and not her best friend.

"Oh there he is!" Leia said happily as they got out of the truck. Alyssa and Leia slid out on the same side and Michael walked around his truck and locked it before shoving his keys into his pocket. Alyssa grabbed his hand and squeezed it as they walked up to the restaurant. It made Michael blush. He watched unhappily as Leia went up it Ashton who put one arm around her and kissed her deeply. He turned away.
