"Goodnight Shawn. Thank you so much for tonight." I blush, stepping out of the passenger side and onto my driveway.

"Goodnight girlfriend." He jokes and I chuckle, tucking a piece of hair behind my ear. "I like when you do that. It's cute." He smiles and I shut the door.

"Stop being cute!" I shout jokingly through the window as he laughs and puts the car into drive.

"I'll pick you up tomorrow. Goodnight." He says, throwing one last smile my way before driving out of my driveway and onto the street.

I giddily run up the porch and into my house to see my dad sitting at the island, waiting for me.

"Well someone's happy." He smiles and I return it with a squeal.

"He asked me!" I shout and he raises and eyebrow.

"Oh god! I can't afford a wedding right now." He says putting his head in his hands jokingly.

"Not that. To be his girlfriend! He asked me to be his girlfriend!" I squeal, hopping in place as my dad laughed at me.

"Well when am I going to meet this boy?" He asks and my heart drops to my stomach. It's not that I don't think Shawn can impress my dad, he's the most respectful, charming guy I've ever met. It's just that my dad can be... embarrassing.

"We'll see. Depends on how you treat me." I smirk and my dad raises an eyebrow.

"Get to bed you have school tomorrow." My dad says and I nod walking up the stairs.

"Night dad!" I say and he just 'yea yea's' as a response, causing me to chuckle.

I take another shower and put pajamas on before laying down in bed.

Shawn: had fun tonight. And that was just the first date, just wait for the others :)

I blush and squeal to myself before responding.

Gosh I'm such a girl

Brielle: oh yea? Don't know if you could top that Peter Raul

Shawn: bet

Brielle: bet on it

Shawn: is that a high school musical reference?

Brielle: maybe

Shawn: I'll have you know I'm a high school musical connoisseur

Brielle: bet I know more

Shawn: lies

Brielle: bet

Shawn: here we go again

Brielle: So what time are you picking me up tomorrow?

Shawn: 5 am

Brielle: WHAT

Shawn: I kid I kid. 7:25?

Brielle: sounds good

Shawn: see you then. Goodnight beautiful :)

Brielle: goodnight :)

I smile to myself before putting my phone down and cuddling into my pillow. Shawn has me feeling so giddy inside. Like a little schoolgirl crush. But he actually likes me back.

That night I fell asleep with a smile on my face and my sleep was peaceful. None of my usual nightmares or weird dreams. Just peace.

That morning I woke up early and decided to actually look decent for once. I let my hair fall in its natural waves and put on minimal makeup then jeans and a white tank top with a grey cardigan. I put on my white converse and walked downstairs to see my dad sitting at the island eating his usual cereal.
