______________________________

I awake felling over the moon happy. Asher. Asher. ASHER! That one word keeps repeating in my head along with memories from last night. Our kisses, our conversation, and our kisses! I can't believe Asher kissed me. He wanted to kiss me.

As I walked down stairs mom can tell I am in a better mood than usual, despite my efforts to hide it, I just can't stop smiling. Asher is just so...so...I guess that there's no word to describe it. Indescribable, found one.

"Why so perky today May?" Mom asks oblivious to last nights events.

"Umm," I say trying to act nonchalant and think of an excuse quick. "I just had a really great time with Allie last night!" I lie. Mom seems to buy it...I think.

As I'm dropped off from the Limo, it's required I ride in it for safety reasons, I immediately find Allie at her locker. She sees my huge smile and joins in with a smile of her own.

"What happened last night May?" She asks. "I never even saw you."

"Asher and I," I paused for dramatic effect. "Kissed!"

"AHHHHH!" She screams as she starts jumping up and down.

"Twice," I add.

"OMG May!" She starts. "You have to give me all of the details!"

As we head to first period I explain everything to her. How he brought me up to that cool room and asked about my feelings about being part of the royal family. And then our kisses. I don't go into as much detail about our kisses because it just seems like something only Asher and I should know about. Our own secret.

By the time fifth period finally decides to roll around I can hardly wait to see Asher. I get there a little early, maybe not by accident.

"Hey," he says walking towards me with a sheepish grin.

"Hi," I say trying not to smile like a fool and once again falling. He plops his bag on the ground and faces me in his stool.

"I had fun last night," he says leaning towards me on the stool. He had fun last night?!

"Me too," I tell him.

"Wanna hang out after school?" He asks. Ugh, now I have to tell him.

"I'd love to," I start. "But, I just need to warn you. If the press finds out anything about me possibly having a boyfriend, not that your, you know, I didn't mea-"

"It's fine," he cuts me off. "I'd like to be called your boyfriend." AH! He wants to be called my boyfriend!! He wants us to be an us!! I can hardly remember what I was talking about.

"Okay," I say as I continue. "Anyways, if the press finds out I have a boyfriend, they will go crazy. You won't have any sense of privacy anymore. They will find out everything about you and won't hesitate to share it with the whole country. All your deepest darkest secrets, will no longer be secrets."

"Good thing I don't have any deep dark secrets," he says as he laughs a little. I roll my eyes but still can't manage to make that smile disappear. "But I know what you mean. And I figured this would happen so I brought some disguises for us! They are in my car. We can put them on at the end of the day. Plus where we are going, there won't be many people." Wow, he really did think of everything. And he really is amazing.

When the bell rang at the end of the day I burst from my seat and nearly ran to Asher's car. Somehow, he beat me.

"Hey," he says as he hands me glasses and a blond wig.

"Woah this is amazing!" I tell him.

"Put them on so we can go," he nags.

"Woah there," I tease. "A little angsty are you now?"

"What can I say?" He asks shaking his head. "I just can't wait for my date with May Singer." I smile as I bring my head up with the wig and glasses on.

Asher laughs as he walks over to me. He takes his hand and tucks some stray strands of red hair into the wig. He steps back and grabs my hands.

"Perfect," he says. I'm too breathless to say anything. We hop in the car and I ask where we are going but he says it's a surprise. We drive for a pretty long time. Finally we make it to the top of the hill or a mountain, I can never tell the difference, and he leaves the car.

I open my own door and step out onto the gravel road barely believing this is happening.

Am I actually on a date with Asher Jennings?

Is Asher Jennings actually my boyfriend?
