Veronica POV
😳Next Morning😳
I woke up and saw Mariah changing her clothes.
"Get up." She said while smiling.
"Why?" I asked while covering my face with a pillow.
"Because we are going out to the movies with my brother, Emma, Hannah, Ethan, Dylan, And Noah." She said and I got up.
I walked to my closet and pick some clothes.
"I'm going to take a quick shower." I said and grabbed a towel.
I took a shower and got dressed.
I put black shorts on with a red sweater and paired it with some high knees socks with black boots. (pic at top⬆️) I put on my makeup and dried my hair. I left my hair down and brushed my teeth.
"You look so cute." Mariah said.
"Thank you. You look good too, Mariah." I said while smiling.
We walked downstairs and my mom was in her room. We ran out as fast as we can so my mom don't see us.
Aaron was waiting for us outside my house with Dylan and Noah.
"Veronica, you sit in the front." Mariah said while pointing to the passenger's seat next to Aaron. I was a little nervous. I'm always nervous when I'm next or near Aaron.
I sat down and Mariah sat down between Noah and Dylan.
"Ok, let's go." Aaron said.
"Hannah, Ethan, and Emma are already at the theater." Mariah said and Aaron looked at her confused.
"Let's go Aaron, the movie is about to start." Mariah said.
"What movie are we going to watch??" I asked.
"Annabelle." Mariah said.
"I hate those kind of movies, Mariah." I said while looking at her.
"Don't worry, I'll protect you." Noah said.
"Aww thank you Noah." I said while smiling and looking at him.
We arrived to the movies and I saw Ethan, Hannah, and Emma standing outside.
Mariah POV
When Noah said that he was going to protect her, I could see Aaron's jaw moving. That means he is mad.
Dylan hits Noah's arms lightly.
I looked at Dylan a little surprised.
"How do you know??" I whispered in his ear.
"I knew since a long time ago and because he told me yesterday." He whispered.
Veronica POV
"Hey Veronica, you look beautiful." Ethan said while hugging me.
"Hi and thank you." I said while smiling.
"Hannah." I said while pulling away and hugging her.
She hugged me back and then we pulled away.
"BEST FRIEND!!!" Emma yelled while hugging me. I hugged her back.
We bought the tickets and popcorn.
We walked in the theater and I sat down between Aaron and Ethan.
The movie was hella scary. When the little doll pops out, I hid my face on Aaron's arm.
"I'm sorry." I whispered.
"It's alright." He said while smiling.
I put my hand on the sides and I felt someone holding it. I turned around and saw Ethan holding my hand.
He smiled at me and I smiled back at him.
At the end of the movie, we got up and walked out the theater. It was 5 o'clock.
"So, where do you guys wanna go??" Aaron asked us.
"To the mall." Mariah said while jumping.
"Ok then. Let's go." Aaron said and then we jumped in his jeep.
The mall is like an hour away from the movies so we decided to put on some music.
"What do you guys want to listen to?" I asked.
"Umm........ The Chainsmokers." Mariah said.
"OMG, No." Aaron said.
"C'mon Burriss." I said while laughing.
"Anything else but them." Aaron said.
"Ugh fine." Mariah said.
He rolled his eyes and kept driving.
We got to the mall and walked inside. Aaron and I wanted to get Starbucks while waiting for Emma, Hannah, and Ethan. We walked in Starbucks and was waiting in the line.
We got to the cashier.
"What can I get you beautiful?" He asked me.
"Umm...... a very berry hibiscus, please." I said.
"Sure and what your name beautiful? Also if you want a phone number too." He said while smirking.
"Veronica." I said while looking down. This was really awkward.
"I'll give you mine." He said.
Please god.
I put my arm around Aaron's torso and he puts his arm around my neck. I rest my head on his chest and I looked up at home while smiling.
"Oh sorry. I didn't know you guys were a couple." The cashier said.
We just smiled.
"Veronica Merrell?" Someone said from behind us.
We turned around and saw Sadie.
"Sadie?" I said surprised.
Oh god.
"You guys are not dating." She said and the cashier was staring at us.
"Yes we are." Aaron said.
"Really Veronica??" She asked me.
"Yes Sadie, we are dating." I said while grabbing his hand that was around my neck.
"Oh really? If you guys are dating, why don't you kiss." Sadie said and I looked up at Aaron. He was so nervous. I was also nervous.
Aaron and I turned face to face.
I was so nervous. This was the second time I kissed someone.
"Hurry up." Sadie said. Everyone at Starbucks was staring at us.
We leaned closer and I got up on my tippy toes. Aaron reached my height and our lips touched. His lips were so soft. It felt amazing. It was more then I thought it was going to be.
Aaron puts his hands around my waist and I put my hands around his neck.
"Whatever." Sadie said while walking away.
We pulled away and I walked out pulling Aaron's hand.
"No one needs to know what happened." I said.
"Perfect for me." Aaron said.
Aaron POV
Veronica's lips were amazing. They were so soft and they tasted like strawberry. I waited so long for that to happened. Her lips are the best.
I don't want this to be the last time.
