Falling For Him

Movie Date

MOVIE DATE

•NATALIA'S POV•

There were three weeks until the dance and I still didn't have anyone to go with. Now that Jason had broken up with me, I was left alone without a date for the dance. Not that he would've come anyway, he hates all the dances the school organises and I have to drag him out of the house if I want him to accompany me to a party. I had already spent £500 on the dress and matching shoes, after school I was planning on buying a purse and some more makeup. What? I have to look pretty, especially now that I'm single.

The bell rang to signal the end of the day and I hurried out of the classroom to get to my locker. Someone was already standing there.

He turned around as I came up behind him and smiled. I think his name is Tyler, Jason introduced us once and said that Tyler really liked me. "Hey Natalia"

For some strange reason his voice made my stomach flutter.

"Hi Tyler, what can I do for you?" I asked whilst packing my books into my locker.

"Well, Iwaswonderingifyouwouldliketogotothedancewithme." He stuttered, I could barely understand him because he spoke so fast.

"Um, could you please repeat that? I didn't understand a thing." I said frowning at his agitated face.

"Would you like to go to the dance with me?" He breathed, "I mean, you don't have to or anything but I just thought that..."

I cut him off with a smile, "of course I'll go with you Tyler. But on one condition."

He nodded, "which is?"

"Wear something nice"

He grinned, "I can do that"

"Alright then. It's a date." I winked, then shut my locker and strutted to my car, leaving him standing there with a cute smirk on his handsome face.

•JASON'S POV•

•FLASHBACK•

"Nathan! You go hide!" I shouted to my twin brother.

"But I always hide Jason," he pouted. "It's not fair."

"Please Nate?" I asked giving him my biggest puppy dog face.

He sighed and shrugged, "oh, alright. But then I'm counting after you."

I nodded whilst grinning and then covered my face with my small hands.

"1, 2, 3" I started counting, careful not to peak through my fingers and be accused of cheating, as I had been many times before. "17, 18, 19, 20! Ready or not here I come!"

I started to look around the park, he wasn't underneath the slide or behind the swings or in the climbing frame, nor was he crouching behind the big rock. In fact I looked around the whole park for 20 minutes and I still hadn't found him.

If he wasn't anywhere on the ground then he would be in his favourite hiding spot, which he used most of the time. Up in the tree, so I looked. He wasn't there.

That's when I started to panic. So I ran back to the park and shouted, "Nathan it's not funny, please come out now."

I shouted that line over and over, running around the park until my dad picked me up and hugged me. There was something wet trickling down his face, but I didn't dare ask what it was.

"Dad, where's Nathan? Is he at home? If he doesn't want to talk to me, please tell him that I'm sorry, and he can count next time." I said wrapping my arms around my dad's neck tightly, I didn't understand why he was crying. Maybe he had fallen over like Mason did yesterday, that made Mason cry. I didn't like it when people cried. It made me want to cry.
