Chapter Twenty Three
"Seriously, Lauren, why didn't you tell me about you and James?" I asked as she straightened my curly hair. She was the best hair straightener who ever lived. Seriously. She could get afro-like hair so straight and silky that I looked like I belonged in an Herbal Essences commercial dancing up on a chair and shaking my head to an upbeat song.
I heard her sigh. "We started to hang out a lot during the summer when you were working and I guess we both started getting these feelings towards each other."
I scoffed. "Lauren, you and James always had feelings for each other."
"I know, but it was different when we were with you. We kind of ignored the feelings. One on one, everything was so different. We started to talk a lot about things and go places together. And then one day we kissed when we were chilling in his room listening to some Eminem song and things escalated from there. We never really discussed telling you and then the day you came back, both of us were too scared to admit it."
Even though I wasn't looking at Lauren, I knew she had that pitiful sad face she always wore when she was upset.
"Lauren, do you really think that I would be mad at you two? I've been begging you to admit your feelings to James for three long years! I wouldn't have been upset at all! I probably would have jumped you both in pure joy."
Lauren gave a small laugh. "Yeah, you probably would have. But, I don't know. I mean, I guess, James and I were embarrassed about our relationship. I haven't even told my mom yet, not that I would tell her in the first place. And James hasn't told his family about us. You know how he and I are. We're so painfully shy."
I laughed. "You didn't look shy when I walked in on you two."
Lauren made a sound that sounded like a dying mouse.
I continued to laugh and slid open my phone and began a text to Tim.
Wht shld I wear 2night? Formal? Casual?
Tim quickly replied back: Wear something that shows a lot of skin.
I mimicked the dying mouse sound that Lauren had made. Tim was even worse over the phone! If that was even possible!
I texted back: If u dnt shut up, I'll show up wearn a nun's outfit.
He texted back: I bet u cld make tht work ;) but I wld recommend wearn a dress instead.
I groaned and texted back: Do I hv 2?!
He said: Yea. We're goin somewhere fancy.
I said: Whatev. C u @ 7.
He said: K. I cnt wait 2 c wat ur wearn. I bet ur gonna look so sexy.
I said: TIM!!!!
He said: Ya Ya. C u l8tr. :D
I sighed and slid my phone shut. "I can't believe I have to go on a date with Timothy Lenoir."
