I woke up feeling so happy the next day, it was like everything in the world was right. It was 9:23 when I rolled over to see my phone. I had 3 missed calls, all from Caleb. Obviously he wasn't kidding when he said he would call me tomorrow. He should've said "call you tomorrow morning". I called back as soon as I could actually keep my eyes open for more than a minute. I ended up sleeping for another hour. It was a nice extra hour, dreaming about Caleb is fun. Remembering the kiss we had was fun, and our relationship; whatever that relationship is, is fun. When I finally decided to talk to him my mom came into my room. She was folding laundry across the hall.
"Mom" I yelled in a whispering voice so Caleb couldn't hear me.
"Mother" I yelled slightly louder, she still didn't hear me because of the loud noise of the dryer.
"Denise" I said after I muted myself on the call.
"What?" she asked looking annoyed. (She hates when I call her Denise, but sometimes that's what it comes to if she doesn't answer me the first time.)
"Can you please leave, I'm on the phone with Caleb?" I asked politely
"I have to finish folding the laundry first." She replied
"Can you make it quick" I said ending the conversation. After I was done talking with my mom, I started my conversation with Caleb.
"Hey babe" I heard a slightly deep voice say through the phone.
"Hiiiiii" I said kinda blushing.
"I really enjoyed our date last night" Caleb replied
"Yea me too" I grabbed my sketch book. I think of myself as a pretty good artist, but I'm nothing special really. Caleb was the first thing that came to mind, so I decided to draw him.
His chiseled jawline, and the way his eyes sparkled in the moonlight. How his teeth were perfect, and complimented his face very nicely. I sketched it all out in black and white, but used some chalk pastels for color. I continued the conversation as I sketched things out.
"Wanna come over to my house today?" slipped out of my mouth.
"Sure I'd love to" he said with delight
"Ok... well how about 4:00 and you can stay for dinner"
"Sounds great" he replied
"I have to go get breakfast now so I'll see you later." I said hanging up the phone.

Getting out of the shower I out my hair up in a towel. It's almost 3:00 and Caleb will be here in an hour. I put lotion on my legs while I put on some music. The first song that came on was Jason Mraz "I won't give up", that is my favorite song of all time.
I won't give up on us...
Even if the skies get rough...
God knows your worth it...
I put on a pair of high waisted light wash jean shorts from American eagle, a daisy crop top from Brandy Melville, and teal vans. I paired with it my 3 Alex and Ani bracelets, an arrow knuckle ring, and 4 other stack rings. Then I curled my hair into loose curls and put on a black lace headband.
When "19 you and me" by Dan and Shay came on I kinda freaked out and had a dance party. I finished dancing on my bed and went into the bathroom to put on y makeup. I made it pretty natural; just some normal face products, a light brown shimmery color with winged eyeliner, and a natural lip.
"Caleb is here" my mom yelled from downstairs.
"I'm coming" I yelled back down.
She had opened the door before I got down there. He was already talking to my mother.
"Why didn't you tell me he was so cute?" my mom whispered to me as she walked to the kitchen.
"You never asked" I said and smiled.
"I'm gonna take Caleb up to my room, Mom" I said
"Ok but no funny business" my mom replied and gave Caleb and I a look.
"I make no promises" I trailed off.
"Just kidding" obviously I was kidding. I pulled Caleb by the wrist up to my room with an uncontrollable smile. Once we got there we sat down on my bed and we just talked.

"Dinner is ready" my mom said from said from the hallway outside my room.
"Ok we'll be down in just a minute" I replied trying to be cool.
We walked downstairs and sat at the table. My mom started bringing the food to the table. Austin walked downstairs and sat down next to Caleb. I thought he would've sat next to me, he is my brother after all. I do have 3 other boys that are kind of my brothers. My dad normally helps my mom with dinner, but he is away on business and won't be back for a few more days. She brought in spaghetti and meatballs, garlic bread, and strawberry and walnut salad with a strawberry vinaigrette.

After dinner was over, I offered to clean up because I didn't make dinner.
"I'll clear the table mom" I said as I stood up grabbing my plate, silverware, and glass.
Caleb corrected me. "We'll clear the table" he said looking at me with those big brown eyes. He stood up and followed me into the kitchen the door swung closed behind us. It kept swaying back and forth until it finally came to a stop. We walked in and out of the kitchen until the table was clean. I went into the kitchen one last time to put the dishes into the dishwasher. Caleb came in shortly after, and grabbed my hips from behind. I turned around and was facing him, chest to chest.
He whispers "where's dessert?" with a sexy tone in his voice.
"Right here" I reply smashing my lips onto his. The kiss was magical. He pressed his tongue at my lips asking for approval. I pulled him closer in response, we kissed; our tongues fighting for dominance. It was a great moment. We both pulled away slightly gasping for air.
We walked upstairs again sat on my bed. Caleb laid back, his head hitting my pillow. I went back too; he put his arm around me, making me feel warm and comforted. He looked over at me and kissed my forehead. It was too good to be true, I think I actually had a boyfriend.
The moment was over when my mom yelled up the stair case. "Come on down, it's a little late for you to be having it's in your room. It's getting close to 9:00."
"Maybe I should leave" Caleb said bringing us both up from my bed with his arm.
"Ok but one more kiss" I replied smiling.
He press his soft lips on mine. Gently, but not too gently. I pulled away ending the kiss. We walked downstairs and I took him out to his car. He kissed me one last time for that night before he shut the car door. I stood in the doorway of the house smiling as he pulled his car out of the driveway. After walking inside and closing the door I went back up to my room. I laid on my bed and closed my eyes.
I said to myself "Is this real?"
