I Think I Love You [Girl×Girl]

Chapter 12

*Caseys POV*

I throw my phone across my bed, defeated. I've tried Jerrys cell 7 times in the past 2 hours and still nothing. All I want to do is apologize to him for the other day. Im not the kind of girl who likes drama. I mean, i dont want him back, but the scene I made was unnecesary. Maybe hes busy, though its strange that whenever we were together his phone never seemed to leave his hand...

I roll over and stare at the wall, thinking. Its Saturday and for the first time in months, I dont have any plans. I want to talk to Ally, but i tell myself not to. I feel so stupid for not realizing she may like me, but I dont want it to be awkward. I mean, I think i like her too, but I'm not sure. I've never dated another girl before. My moms great, but i also know she wouldnt approve. I hear my parents talking at night and stuff. When same-sex marriage was legalized, they were so angry! Why legalize something that so many people disagree with? I know they would have some conflicting thoughts if they even knew i might like girls.

Finally I make a decision: putting on my Tiro 15s and my Nikes, I get in Moms car and head to Allys. Its Saturday, and Mom bussed to work. I hesitate at her door. I couldve just called. What if she isnt home? Or shes busy? I mentally slap myself for being so thoughtless. But I knock. A medium built sandy haired guy opens the door. Allys dad?

"Hi, how can I help you?," he asks kindly.

"Goodmorning, Im looking for Ally? I'm... a friend..." I trail off, wishing I was more than that.

He smiles. "I think shes still in her room. Come on in." He opens the door wider and steps aside so i can come in.

"Thanks," I say, walking past him and heading upstairs. I have no idea what to say to her. The mall was fun though, and we arent fighting anymore, so that should make it easier.

I hesitate outside her door, then rap it lightly. "Ally?" Its almost 10. I pray she isnt a late sleeper.

"Casey?" to my relief, Allys groggy voice seems happy I'm here. "Come in!"

I open the door, taking the completely covered lump in the bed to be Ally.

"Hey," I start, "sorry... I didnt think to call first."

"No worries," Ally giggles, peeking out from the blanket. "I look a hot mess though so dont laugh." Shes sits up, and brushes back her tangled, messy hair.

I sit on her bed. Shit, I'm sweating. "I- I was hoping we could hang out today...maybe see a movie or something?"

Ally smiles wide, and I feel my cheeks reddening. "Thatd be great."

"Awesome," I smile, relieved.

Her face grows serious. "But we're not watching Star Wars. I hate that damn series."

I grin, relieved that we have that in common.

An hour later, we're in Allys car and headed to Building Blocks Daycare. After pulling it up on GPS, she offered to take me there first to pick up a job application.

"So, is there any particular thing you wanna do today? Besides see a movie," Ally stops to let a mother and her kid cross.

No, as long as I get to be with you, I wanted to say, but didnt. Cant let her know how I feel. Not yet anyway. Instead I casually say, "Nah, whatever you want I guess."

"Cool, theres this art museum my mom told me about that I want us to check out."

Art, so exciting! Museums are so boring, but hey. Beggers cant be choosers.
