"I'm not saying its a bad thing" Mariah says biting her lip "I'm just concerned her and Nathan aren't the safest idea"

"Neither is Kayla and Brent" Misha moans

"But we are working on it" I sigh

"It's toxic" Hanna agrees "Both relationships"

"Like all your guys' relationships don't have issues"

"We do but sometimes you two don't seem like the best." Misha adds

"Not as bad as Nika and Nathan" I mutter

"I guess" Mariah mumbles

"So one issue at a time"

"What are we going to do?" Hanna asks shaking her head

"Nika's her own person. So we walk out of this bathroom, meet our boyfriends and let her deal with the consequences" Misha orders

"She still needs friends" I add

"I'm not going to be friends with her!" Melissa finally pipes up "My mom would kill me. She's a bad influence"

"She's not telling you to get pregnant. Besides she'll spend most of her time with the kid" Hanna snorts "Just talk to her when she needs it"

"Agreed" I nod.

"Fine" Melissa crosses her arms.

"Is everyone going to the spring fling?" Misha asks

"Yeah!" Mariah smiles.

"Never pass up an opportunity to wear a dress" Hanna smiles

"I'm not" Melissa frowns. "I don't have a date"

"Are we still up for dinner before?" I ask watching Misha apply lip gloss.

"Yeah" Hanna smiles.

"Alright. Well we better meet up with our boyfriends before they conspire against us"

We walk out taking hands of our boys.

"Why does it take girls so long in there?" Brent asks

"We were planning to take over the world" I whisper in his ear.

"Can you so it after the spring fling because I want to see you in that dress"

"I haven't bought one yet silly. I'm going to today after school with the girls"

"What am I supposed to do?" He pouts

"I don't know? Hang out with the guys, play video games. Do normal guy things?"

He nods "Yeah. I do hang out with you waaaayyy too much" He jokes

I roll my eyes. "See you after shopping today" I smile kissing his cheek then go off to English, last period of the day.

We arrive at Maxine's, a fancy dress shop on the west side of town.

"Welcome ladies!" The peppy sales woman greets "Spring fling time already?"

"Of course Abigail." Mariah smiles

"Well, you girls have come to the right place, Feel free to look around" Abigail smiles. She's one of those 'too happy' people with the fancy pink dress and the fake smile.

We scope around the racks.

"This one is so you!" Misha hands me a blue dress with sequins.

"Misha!" Mariah calls "I found one Dean will adore!"

Eventually I find a dress I want and check out. I walk back to the dressing rooms and sit on the circle couch and wait for the girls.

"How's this one?" Mariah comes out in a black dress with a cut out leg.

"Girl, you got a body, show it off" I smile

"This one?" Hanna asks coming out in dark green dress that goes down to her mid thigh and enlarges her breasts.

"Perfect"

-

"Can I see the dress?" Brent pouts as we lay on his bed cuddling and watching a movie.

"Nope" I smile up at him. "You will tomorrow night"

"It's so far away"

I scoot up and kiss him. "Too bad."

"Is it going to be like the one at the first party you went to with your friends"

"The tight one where you could see up and down it?"

"Maybe...but I did like it..."

"Mmmhmmm. Keep it in your pants"

He smiles down and kisses me "Fine. Only for you"

"Good. Now let me take a shower"

"Fine" he unwraps me from him "Be back soon"

I gather some clothes out of the closet we now decided to share.

After my shower I wrap myself in a towel. Where are my clothes? What the hell?

"Brent?" I peep my head out of the bathroom door. "Where'd you put my clothes"

He bursts out in laughter.

"Seriously. Give them back"

"You gotta come out" he mocks

I groan walking out with the soft white towel and walking to the closet, bending over to get clothes.

I stand up into Brent kissing my neck.

"Brent..." I let out a soft moan then turn around to face him "Let me put some clothes on then we can make out all you want"

He nods solemnly. I feel bad...I know that he wants more...could we have more with clothes on and still be okay? I hope so...

"Spongebob!" I smile hopping in a cuddle with him.

"I knew this was your favorite" he kisses my forehead. I scoot up and kiss his lips.

"I love you" he whispers into my lips.

I playfully bite my lips and smile "I love you too" I may or may not have lied.... It's so hard to know to love someone these days. For all I know it could be just another way to get in my pants. I feel like I put a wall up, around my heart.
