Anywhere With You [Restless Road]

Chapter Two ; Kissed You

Song ; Kissed You (Goodnight) by Gloriana

"I turned the lock, met you on the front porch. And I kissed you, goodnight."

~*~*~

I left Katie's house around 1:30 the next day. I don't think she'll be drinking for a while after last night. 

When I locked the door to my house, I was greeted with the voice of my three year old niece screaming at the top of her lungs. Who doesn't want to come home to that?

A very tired looking Kyle was chasing her. "Got stuck baby-sitting?" I guessed, throwing my bag down. 

"Yep. Please help me." he replied desperately. 

"Hey, hey, hey," I said, scooping the toddler up. "How about me and you go get dressed? Then, we can go visit the horses and jump on the trampoline. How's that sounds?"

"Yeah!" Kinley exclaimed. 

I put her down and she ran straight to the bathroom. 

"How in the..." Kyle asked astonished.

"Two words; horses and trampoline. Works every time." I told him, patting his back.

~*~*~

After Kinley was finally down for a nap, I was able to check my phone for the first time in ages. I was scrolling through Instagram, when I noticed I had a text. 

It was from Andrew! 

Hey! I was wondering if you want to go out tonight. Let me know. ;)

I, of course, replied that I would love to go out with him tonight and to text me back about when and where. 

Just a few minutes later, he texted me back saying to be ready around 6. He was going to pick me up. It was only 3:30 now, so I had plenty of time to get ready.

But I needed help. Someone who was an expert on going on dates. Time to call Katie.

~*~*~

"Out of all days you need my help, I have to be suffering the worst hangover yet." Katie mumbled, searching through my clothes.

"Well, that's usually how it goes." I teased.

Katie took out one of my best dresses and threw it on the bed. "Katie, I'm going to a date to a diner. Not Paris." I pointed out.

"Alright." she replied, putting it back and pulling out a cute shirt. "Wear this shirt, the shorts you got from Hollister last week, and your black flower sandals."

"Sounds good. Thanks Katie." I smiled. 

"Anytime. Now, where do you keep your aspirin?"

~*~*~

When Katie left, it was already five o'clock, so I quickly jumped in the shower. I washed my body and hair, brushed my teeth, applied lotion and moisturizer, and combed threw my blonde hair. Then, I got dressed in my select outfit. Nothing special really. Just a typical first date routine. 

 It was currently 5:45. I had a little while. However, I didn't know that my mom was home from her job at the hospital.

"Where are you doing so dressed up tonight?" she asked from the kitchen. 

"I'm meeting someone at the diner." I replied.

"Oh really? What's his name?"

"How do you know it's a boy? It could Katie or Brielle."
