I finish my makeup and slip on a stylish, but appropriate outfit for my date. I'm completely surprised that Shane asked me out on a date. He barely even knows me. But I am glad he did ask me out. Guys never asked me out in my old school, and why is that? Because they were more interested in the bitchy anorexic/bulimic girls with terrible bleaches and the fakest of fakest tans, instead of me, the sheltered deaf girl with hair that is natural and not bleached and no tan! Well, I'm glad if Shane finds that attractive.
I slip on some shoes and walk down the stairs to find all eyes on me, and I see those tan eyes again, Shane.
He says hey.
"Hi Shane. I see you've met my parents."
"You look beautiful, babe." My mom signs.
"Thanks mom." I giggle. Shane looks confused.
"He's really cute." My mom signs as I stand next to Shane. I giggle.
"Love you guys, I'll see you later."
I read Shane's lips, asking if there's a certain time I need to be home at.
My dad says no, he trusts us and tells us to just have fun. I love my parents.
We walk out of the house to his truck.
I read his lips, they say I look nice.
"So do you."
