I Won't Give Up- Jai Brooks Fanfiction

Chapter 10- Nerves

Jai’s POV

Most girls ask if it’s the same for guys. Like do the guys get butterflies in their stomachs around the girl that they like? For me, yes I do. I’m terrified of being judged by the girl that I like, she might not like me for who I am. I don’t know Carter that well, in fact I don’t know her at all. I have no idea what her hobbies or interests are… Nothing!

I just committed myself to hanging out with her, just Carter and I. The nerves were getting the better of me, when I reached for my phone to text her. It amazed me that I could even ask her for her number without stumbling over my words. I unlocked my phone and brought up Carter’s contact. I smiled at the photo I had taken of her for the photo part of her contact. She was pulling an awkward face but she still managed to look cute… SHUT UP JAI, YOU SOUND LIKE A GIRL!

I opened up to message her.

To Carter Clifford:                                                                                                                                                                                                               What are you doing tomorrow? Xx

Is what I messaged her, my nerves were really setting in, to the point where I began to sweat at the thought that she might not reply. A few minutes passed and chucked my phone to the end of the bed because I thought she wasn’t going to reply. But in the mist of myself doubt my phone went off and Carter had replied.

From Carter Clifford:                                                                                                                                                                                                             Nothing wanna do something? Xxxo

Oh my god she replied!

To Carter Clifford:                                                                                                                                                                                                                            Movies at 4:30pm we’ll see Ted?                                                                                                                                                                                                                  

From Carter Clifford:                                                                                                                                                                                                          Sounds good :_)))) xxx

Holy shit I’m actually that excited. You see the thing is I’ve never had a serious relationship before, and I don’t know if Carter has either.

Some people may call me metrosexual, but that’s only because I take pride in who I am and how I look. So I chose my outfit carefully, I don’t want to look awful. I ended up choosing a pair of black jeans with a low crotch cut, pared with a maroon polo and my white high-tops.
