After that awkward conversation I go tell my mom I will be going out with a friend to lunch.

"Oh is your friend that handsome, young boy smiling at you?"

"Mom." I whine

"Okay okay, you two be back by night."

"Okay mom."

I go back to where Nash is standing and we walk together to his car.

"Hey, I just realized I don't know your name."

"Oh, its Lisa."

"Lisa...I like it." He smiles at me and I start to blush. I try to keep the conversation going so I just start asking him questions.

"So if you already have a drivers license and your own car, then why were you at the driving school?"

"Because my uncle works there."

"Oh cool, I guess, what's his name?"

"Sam."

"Oh wow your uncle owns that place!"

"Yea, I stay with him because he takes care of me. My parents died when I was four and I have been living with my uncle for the past thirteen years."

"Oh, I'm so sorry."

"Don't be. I've gotten over it and I have realized over the years that what's done is done and it's not my fault."

"Oh, I understand."

"What?"

"My dad left us when I was six and he didn't bother trying to stay in touch with us, but that's okay, I don't think of it that much but it doesn't bother me anymore."

"Wow, I'm sorry."

"Thanks. Well now there's one thing we have in common."

He laughs and I do the same, the atmosphere starts lifting as we move from the subject.

"So, Lisa, I know that this can be a little intimidating going out on a date with a superstar but you get used to it." He joked

Was this a date? Did he want it to be? Well obviously he just said it. Why am I being so stupid. Ugh come on Lisa, Lisa,

"Lisa!? Earth to Lisa!"

"Oh sorry, just lost in thought I guess."

"Oh, okay then. So since I just met you and I barely know anything about you, why dont you tell me about yourself."

"Okay" I said letting out a long sigh.

"Whoa hey, if you dont want to thats okay too. I dont need to know everything about you." He smiled. Something about him just makes me trust him, his smile, his words, he just makes me feel...okay.

"No that's okay, I don't mind."

I started telling him my whole life story, I know, I know but I just felt that I needed to get all of this out of my system and Nash did make me feel comfortable so why not?

I started by telling him when my dad left us and he already kind of knew the situation so I just went over that part briefly. So after my dad left my mom started having to work a lot more often and she was never around a lot so I had to find work when I was ten. I used to go door to door in our neighborhood asking if they needed to mow their lawn, or shovel their driveway during the winter, or anything else I could do to get some cash. I never spent any money on myself. I always gave the money I earned to my mom because the divorce was really hard on her. I was basically living on my own for a while because I was always staying at my friends house  because money was tight.

I played soccer and took dance classes but soon stopped because I got bored of it. We moved three times in the last two years, New York to Chicago, Chicago to New Hampshire, and New Hampshire to Virginia.

"So that's my life so far."

"Wow. You are quite extraordinary you know that?"

I could feel myself blushing. Nash Grier just called me extraordinary! He is so sweet and it seems like he really cares about me even though we have only known each other for a few hours.

"What are you thinking about?"

"Just thinking about how sweet you are."

I gasped at my own words but he didn't seem to mind because he started laughing and I could swear I saw him blush a little.

"Well thank you, beautiful."

"You think I'm beautiful?"

"No."

"What?"

"I know you are beautiful."
