The next morning I wake up and I'm in Erick's sweater. I smile because I remember what happened yesterday. This boy is driving me crazy. Then I get a call.
"Hello?" I say.
"Hola novia mía." It was Erick. I could tell that he was smiling.
"Hola novio mio," I smile.
"Wow I still cant believe that you're my girlfriend," He says.
"Well you better because you are going to see a lot of me." I say and he laughs.
"Do you want to come over?"
"Yessss!"
"Ok. Come at 6:00 pm."
"Alright."
"Bye princesa."
"Bye Ojitos." I get changed and wear this.I bring his sweater and head to the corner store. I buy us cacahuates con chile. It's our favorite snack. Then I go to his house. I knock and Erick's mom answers the door.
"Hola Señora Colon," I smile at her.
"Hola hija. Pasa." She opens the door wide so I can get in.
"Gracias Señora."
"Erick está en su cuarto."
"Ok gracias." I smile and she smiles back.
I go to his room and I knock.
"Pasa." I hear him say. I go in and he is shirtless. I close my eyes.
"Erick!"
"What? It's not like you haven't seen me shirtless before."
"One your mom is here. Two what if it wasn't me? And three I'm too young." I laugh. And he turns red. He puts on his shirt. I gave him his sweater.
"Thank you for letting me borrow this."
"You can keep it. Think of it as a gift. It fits you."
"Thanks." I smile.
"What's in the bag?"
"Cacahuates con chile."
"Yes!" He leaves a spot for me to sit on his bed. We turn on the TV. He was about to switch the channel when I stop him and turn up the volume.
