Taylors POV
I woke up and looked at the time on my ipod 12:42. Almost 1:00. I jumped out of my bed and walked to my closet. Thinking what to wear. Wait! What did I care. I'm mean Cassie is just a girl I enjoy talking to. I mean it's not like I like her. I dont? You can be attracted to people without liking them.
I grabbed a piece the veil shirt, blacked ripped skinnies and black vanns. I quickly got dressed and looked for my necessities. I grabbed my ipod, headphones and Bonnie. I ran to the bathroom and changed my snake bites to were one ball said "kiss" and the other one said "me."
I jogged down the stairs to see cassie waiting in the living room, talking to my mom "good morning hun, did you sleep well?" My mom asked looking over in my direction. I smiled and nodded "like a new born baby with no responsibility." I joked which caused them to laugh. I looked over at Cassie "sorry I slept in a little, didn't mean to keep you waiting." I said slightly embarrassed.
She was wearing a Of mice and men shirt and to my surprise the same black jeans and vanns. I smiled at her. "Are you copying me?" I asked joking. "No!" she said laughing but I could see this caused her to blush. "Do you want to go get some ice cream, do you know any places? I'll pay?" I asked grabbing my jacked off the rack next to the door. She nodded multiple times. "Ummm is the sky blue!? There's this place called Ozzies ice cream, it's really good." She said excitedly walking in my direction.
"You guys be careful! Watch for cars!" My mom yelled as we walked out the door. I waved my hand behind me to let her know I heard her. We walked down the gravel drive way, making our way to the local ice cream shop Cassie had told me about.
We were half way there when we heard barking. I felt Cassie jump. "You ok?" I laughed causing her to roll her eyes playfully "oh yeah, don't mind me. Just terrified of dogs" she laughed sarcastically. I laughed "ok, fair. I can't say some dogs don't intimidate me." I said looking forward. "Ah I was just caught off guard is all" she said as we rounded a corner bringing us to ozzies ice cream. "Yeah sureeeee." I teased, which resulted in a playful nudge.
We walked in, and I started taking in my surroundings. The light pink walls decorated with hand painted sprinkles. Lights slung along the wall unevenly, giving it a childish but friendly atmosphere. I liked it. We took a minute to look over their menu.
"What would you like?" I smiled looking over at her. Cassies eyes were lit up like a kid on Christmas. "Hmmmm." She said tapping her chin in a thinking motion. "Cookie n crème!" She said with a smile. "Thank you." She blushed. "Of course! I don't mind one bit." I said, taking another minute to decide for myself.
I bought her and myself some ice cream. She looked like I'd just gave her a pony. "How is it?" I asked as she ate a spoon full. "It's like milk from the cow tit itself" she said taking another bite. This made me laugh "I don't think I've ever heard that before but I like it." I said laughing take a bite out of my ice cream as well.
We decided to hangout at the local park she showed me. They had a small skate section with a few rams decorated in each corner and the pavement. It was smaller than the ones I had at home, but it was nice to see that we were the only two there. Most of the time, on cali at least, you couldn't go to the park without 100 other people there. So I didn't mind it. We sat on the swings and talked for hours. When we got done it was getting dark. I heard a phone ring.
"Hello?"
"ok, ok, I love you to. bye."
"Have to go home?" I asked "yeah my mom said She wants me to head home before it gets dark." I nodded, knowing my mom was probably wondering where I was. "We'll let me walk you home." I said as we got up, making our way out of the park.
Once I could see our houses I felt a slight relief. I was tired of walking honestly. We stopped walking and I turned to her. "Kiss me?" She asked confused as she stared at my snake bites. "Yeah super cringe I know" I laughed a little embarrassed. She laughed and shook her head "ok, well maybe a little." She teased.
"You want my jacket? I know it's getting cold out." I said as we made it closer to my door. She shook her head in disagreement. Once we reached the door, I could hear laughing that I didn't recognize. "Cassie I think your mom's here." I said peeking into the living where my and her mom sat.
"Hey do you wanna see something cool before you leave?" I asked cassie hoping she would say yes. "sure." She smiled. It was a warming smile. As we made our way up the stairs I heard my mom yelling for me to leave my door open. "ok." I yelled back. Shaking my head, as if I had bad intentions. I walked cassie over to my bed. "you ready?" She nodded nervously. I walked to my blacklight and turned it out. " OMG! Taylor this is amazing! " she exclaimed
"I've not had many hobbies I was good at, but painting was one of my favorites." I said admiring my own work. The neon colors popped under the black light. "You're really talented, ya know the high school has a really good art program. You should check it out" she said slowly running her fingers across the the bright canvas. "Thanks, I'll have to check it out." I said smiling. "Cassie honey time to go home." Her mom said from the door way. This causing us to jump as we didn't hear her walk up.
We broke into laughter. "coming." She said looking back at her mom "well I guess I'll see you tomorrow." She said turning around to walk out. "come on cassie." She turned to me and waved
