Patience is a Virtue(Under MAJOR editing)

chapter 14

By Tuesday I  was so anxious I was literly bouncing in my seat for excitement. It turns out that josh got terribly sick after I saw him on Friday and couldn’t make it to the dance. He still didn’t talk to me even today. I guess he was that sick.

“should I take you home?” he whispers in my ear, his breath  tickling it. I laugh and smile at him.

“yes please.”

“ok then.” And we head off to his car. I make sure of the ice. I don’t want him to have to be worried about my back. It hasn’t been hurting lately but its starting to act up.

when we finally get to my house I bound out excited but kiss him goodbye and go inside.

“see you soon:)” I yell and he laughs from the car and drives off.

-----------------------------------------------

“god Im almost done! One second.” I scream from my room curling the last piece of hair and smoothing out my skirt. I am wearing a black skirt that is alittle higher than my knees and a light blue shirt ( I like blue) and some black flats along with that. My hair is curled and I have little makeup on that looks fine with my pale skin.

I come down the stairs and he has a blazer and some black pants. I smile at him.

“hey.”

He blinks at me in shock before giving me a smile. “hey. You look beautiful.”

“well this is the best I can do in a hour and a half. So it better be ok.”

He chuckles. “only you.”

I roll my eyes and walk past him out the door. Before my mad rush I put a note on the table to bell telling her I’m out on a date and ill be home soon.

He catches up to me quick and opens my door for me and then goes to his side and starts the car.

“geez its cold isn’t it?”

“yea no kidding. So where are you taking me?”

he smiles and looks to the road while driving. “not  telling you.”

“oh come on. please?”

“nope.”

“fine.” I grumble and sit back looking at the window.

When he pulls up to the restaurant I smile.

“oh I like this restaurant.”

Relief floats through him. “oh good. I didn’t know if you liked this place or not.”

So when we go in there he grabs my hand and the person directs us to a table.

“so what would you like today?” the waiter askes. He looks at me giving me a dazzling smile and I smile back politely. He looked my age. Probably goes to my school. Calvin shoots him a glare.

“umm just a coke. Thanks.”

“me too.” he blurts out and the waiters smile disappears when he looks at cal.

“alright then.”

And he walks off. I laugh at him. He gives me a innocent look.

“hey no need to be jelous. I don’t like anyone except you.”

his face softens. “ok that makes me feel better about that.”

I give him a reassuring smile and grab his hand across the table. He squeezes it back.

When he comes back he tries again but with no success and we order our food and it comes amazingly quick. I guess when someone likes you they come quicker.

I dig in the food.

“yum. I love this thanks. This is so good.”

He smiles at me. “glad you like this.”

We then talk about random stuff and by the end I am just laughing at him and his stories that he is telling me. he is laughing around. Some people give us dirty looks but we ignore them. when were done he takes me home and kisses me goodnight.

“bye.” And he kisses me.

“yep see you tomorrow.”

And I hop out and go inside. she still isn’t home. God she is gone now with her new obsession.

When I see the tv across the street I get an idea. So I change and start to it.

-------------------------------------------------------------

“hey feeling better?” I ask him as he opens the door cheerfully. He gives me a weird look.

“why are you here?” he asks warily. I roll my eyes.

“I wanted to see how you were doing. I made you cookies.” I hold them up sheepishly. He smiles at my attempt. He then steps inside.

“want to come in?”

I roll my eyes and walk in. “I thought you would never ask.”

I go to the kitchen. Don’t ask me how I know but I set them down on the counter. He follows me. I look at him secretively. He is wearing some sweatpants that hang dangerously loose on his waist and a vneck shirt. I resist the urge to drool at his body. I pull my eyes away scolding myself. He chuckles behind me obviously found out.

I ignore him. “so what happened to you? I mean you seemed fine on Friday?”

His face turned serious. “yeah well I got food poisoning. It wasn’t fun. But I should be going back to school tomorrow.”

I smile at him. “good. That’s good.”

There is silence. Then after some moments of it he speaks up.

“do you want to go to my room?”

“sure.”

As we are going to his room I stop him in the doorway.

“wait.”

“what?”

“can you promise me something?”

“sure?” he asks confused. I push my curls away from my face.

“can we be just friends?” his face falls a fraction of a millimeter but recovers it by a smile.

“sure.”

“good.” And I walk in. and he follows me. so I sit on his bed.

“so what should we do?”

“umm…”

“how about a movie?”

he looks at his alarm clock. It read 9:00. “sure.”

So we put one in. I crawl up in the bed and lean against the wall and he does the same close by but not to close. im pretty sure it was a scary movie but they don’t affect me. they don’t seem to scare him ethier because he laughed at the person stupidity. I laugh along for awhile but my eyelids get heavy and I drift off to sleep.
