"You can't wear that on your first date" Reagan yells, going through all her clothes. "Come on sweat pants?! Here put on this" She finishes as she throws me a pare of leggings. I take off my swaet pants and try on the leggings. "Fuck these are tight!" I cry. "Ya they also show off your ass, so suck it up." She says. Again i find myself on her floor while she does my hair, her voice in the background telling me how to get him to like me without throwing myself at him.
"ANNA HES HERE!" My mother yells from downstairs. Oh god what am I thinking. Ive never been on a date before, hell Ive never even kissed a boy yet. This is hopelss, I will not be able to get him to fall for me. My mom lets the boy inside and Reagan adds some "final touches" to me. I walk down stairs to see him and my mother waiting. "All ready to go?" He asks. "As ready as i'll ever be" I mudder under my breath. Reagan kicks me in the butt as I walk out the door with him.
We get into Josh's truck and start driving. "Where are we going?" I ask him. "Well, i'm acutally gonna steal you kidney so where would be a safe but secret place to do that?" He says sarcasticly. I just look at him, fuck i'm akaward! "I'm only kidding, where going somewhere out of the city." He sings. "Oh ok." I say shyly. Then there silents again, damn I hate the horrible noise of nothing. He pulls out some smokes, "Want some?" He asks. I take one and he lights it. "You know we could be like the cute tumblr couples, you take my smoke and ill light it when its in your mouth. I swear all the little kids will be doing it." hes rants. "Your funny kid" I say looking into his eyes that are pretty focuased on the dirt road. One hand on the wheel and the other holding mine. This is the closet thing ive had to a boyfriend.
When we get there its a little fishing dock. He grabs a basket and a blanket and lays it on the dock. We lays down and I lay beside him. He rants to me about how he wants to become famous one day and how I can travel the world with him if I wanted to. I wasn't paying much attenchion, to focused on what the hell was in the basket. He reaches out for my hand again and hold it tight, I wonder why he likes me so much. This is the second date and hes already holding my hand. Then he rolls ontop of me. "Would you want to?" He asks me. "sorry what?" I ask. "Would you runaway with me?" He repeats. "Um-" I was cut off when his lips touched mine. It feels like I was shocked with lightening. "Shhhhhh, I don't wanna know yet." He sings and rolls off me.
He grabbed the basket and in it was glass jars, and as it quickly got dark light fire flys came out. They were like little stars floating around me. He starts to catch them in the glass jars. I grab a jar and help him. I'm still shoked about him kissing me like that, my head was slightly spinning and I started feeling dizzy. After we filled the jars with fire flys we placed the jars around us. "Me and my little sister use to do this" Caleb says. "Oh whats her name?" I ask. "Echo" He answers. "She died last year". I look at him with a deathly stare. "Oh my god.." I say under my breath. Then he grabbed me in his arms and started hugging me, I could tell he needed me to hug him back. So we held each other on a cold night with fire flys in glass jars off at some old fishers dock. That sounds like a pretty complete first date doesn't it? well then he pulls out one more thing out of the basket. It was a lock and a key, he locks the lock on the fishers dock and then gives me the key. "Whats this for?" I ask. "Well now you throw the key into the water, so the lock stays here forever" He answers. "Why?" I Because the lock is us, and the memory of our first real date is here" He says.
I throw the key far off the dock, theres a faded splash in the distance. We clean up the blankets and let the fire flys go then get in his truck. He turns on the radio and pops another smoke in my mouth. "So" He starts while lighting my smoke. "Can I call you my girlfriend?" He asks. I take a long drag of the smoke, feel it enter my body probably destroying most of it. "Ya i'll be your girlfriend." I say. "Who else will take tumblr smoking pictures with you?" I ask while laughing. He grabs my hand and he drives me home.
