Unbroken bonds

2. "Not" a date

I wake up to the sound of a very loud power tool. What the hell!? I rub my eyes and yawn. I hear my phone go off and when I open it I was baffled. She still had my number? For this last 2 years she still had my number and she didn't even call me or text me? It's fine Jessie I tell myself. I read the text: Hey, you still on for today?: I read her text about 4 more times before I responded. :Yessir:): I reply and put my phone down. I get up and dig in my bag for clothes. I put on my white crop top and black tipped skinny jeans. I decide to wear very little makeup. I didn't need very much anyway. I put my bag under my bed and walked out of my old room and into the front room. I walk into the bathroom and brush my breath and hair. I walk out of there and my dad is crouched down screwing something. "I'm going out!" I yell over the sound of the power tool. He gives me a thumbs up and I roll my eyes. I walk out the door and stretch. "Hey there froggy" I hear and smile. When I was little I looked like a frog. I dont anymore tho. But I'm glad that she called me that. "Hey." I say back and smile at her. "Are you ready for the best day ever with the best person ever?" She asked all cocky like she always used to be. I rolled my eyes and giggled. "You know it boo." We walk to her car and hop in. Her car is really nice. It's sexy ash too. "This car is fucking sexy" I say and hear a laugh from the other side of me. Gosh her laugh is amazing. The way she looks is amazing to. She has her hair down today and she is wearing ripped jeans with a big white t shirt and it's completed with a lil chain. That's when I noticed her tattoos. "Bitch you got tats now?" I ask in awe and she smiles looking down at them. "Yessir" sh simply says and starts driving. Maybe she didn't wanna talk about it.? She turned up the radio and stared blankly at the road. "Are you okay?" I asked not even knowing if I'd be able to help if she wasn't. "Yeah I'm okay, I've just missed you." I smile at her reply and rub her shoulder. "Well I'm here if you needa talk" I say and she gives me a quick thank you. We pull up to some Chinese food place. Chinese is my absolute favorite! "No way" I say and she laughs at me. "Oh yeah baby you already know. I remember what you like" she says back and this makes me blush so no reason. We both got out of the car and walked into the restaurant. She got us a table and we sat down waiting for the waiter. "You know your the best right?" She smiled cockily at my comment and nodded. We ordered and then we ate. "So tell me, how was it without me?" She asks catching me off guard. "Well, you know the whole devorse thing with my parents and my mom and I moved. Oh and mrs. Anderson is pregnant now." I catch her up and she nods letting me know she is listening. We talk and talk for a long time. "So any boyfriends/girlfriends I should know about?" She asks catching me way of guard. I look up at her and smile. "Nope, I don't really date unless they are you know, actually important to me.." I say not really wanting to discuss but she seems really interested. "Huh" is all I hear from her. We remain silent until we have to pay. "I will pay" she keeps insisting but I will not let it happen. "I will pay, I can pay, I'm paying" I say and slip money onto the table. She grabs it and gives it back to me, then puts her money down but I grab her money. We finally just split the bill and walked out to the car. "Thank you sor today it was really fun." I thank her and she pulls me in for a hug. Of course I hug her back but this time I squeeze tight and snuggle into her. What am I doing!? I was expecting her to get weirded out but she rested her head on mine and squeezed tighter. This is by far one of the best hugs that I've had. She let go and so did I. I wasn't ready for that hug to end. She looked down at me and sighed. Did I do something wrong? I must've looked confused because she smiled. "It's not you." She said and looked down. "Well then what is it?" I ask trying not to be too pushy. "You wanna stay over tonight? My dad will be home so I don't have to watch my mom" her questions just keep catching me off guard. "Yeah" I simply reply. We gives me a quick smile then climbs into the car. I walk over to my side and get in.
We make it to her house and i send my dad a quick text telling him here id be. He gave me a thumbs up. I crawled out of the car and so did she. I look at her and found myself staring. She looked up and I quickly looked away and blushed. I hear a laugh. She walks over to me and puts an arm over my shoulder, so naturally I put mine around her waist. She unlocks the door and quietly opens it. She points up the stairs and I took the hint. When I reached the top of the stairs I saw her room, with the same orange door that we drew all over. I smiled to myself. Then I feel eyes on me. "Well are you gonna go in?" She whisper yells. I giggle and walk into her room. I look around and almost cry. All of the poloroids that we took, and the framed pictures of us, and the picture we made for each other were all still there. I feel her arm around my shoulder again and she looks with me. I feel a single tear fall from my eye. She looks at me and frowns. She takes her thumb and wipes the tear. "Hey it's okay, I'm here now." She said with a small smile. I smile back and rest my face in her hand. "I'm glad." I say and hug her. I let go and walk over to the bed. It's not the same one that used to be there. This ones bigger. I sit down and look up at her. She looks almost flustered. "Uh you want some pjs?" Her voice sounded almost....nervous? I smiled and nodded. She turns and gets into her dresser. I sigh and plop back onto the bed. "Here" she hands me a big red T-shirt and some boy shorts. I thank her and pull my shirt over my head without warning. I feel her eyes burning into me. But it's different now. I pull the shirt over my head and stand up. When I look over at her she is faced the other way. I pull my pants down and Pull the shorts up. "I'm done dippy" I say and hear a giggle. I plop back onto the bed and cover up. "I'm gonna go take a shower, I'll be back in a few, okay?" I nod at her and lay down on the soft pillow. About 20 minutes later I feel a weight next to me on the bed. I open my eyes and see a wet haired and newly dressed Adrain. I smile to myself. "Oh shit did I wake you up?" She ask worrily. "I wasn't asleep. I was just resting." I say back with a big smile. It's almost like I couldn't help but smile around her. She lays down and looks up at the ceiling. "Hey, wats bothering you?" I say and she turns her whole body to look at me. "I don't know.." her answer made me worried. "Is it something I said?" At this she smiles. "Why do you always think you have done something wrong? Even when we were kids you always thought it was you when I was upset." She asked. Why did I? Maybe it was cause I just blamed everything on myself. Like my parents divorce. I blamed myself for so long and I still kinda do. I stayed quiet. She sighed and put a lock of hair behind my ear. "No Jessie, you haven't done anything wrong." Just by this little action that she did my whole body heats up. I gulp. "Okay" I say. She moved her hand away from me and looks down. "Goodnight froggy." She says with a smile. "Goodnight"I reply and close my eyes.

I wake up from being way to hot. I open my eyes and see Adrain's face really close it mine. My breath catches in my throat and I didn't even notice her hand on my hip until now. My body gets even hotter. At this point I'm sweating. I roll over and hop out of the bed. I walk to her bathroom and take in a deep breath. I pull my shirt off and splash cold water on my face. "What are you doing jes?" I say aloud to myself. I walk back into the room forgetting the shirt, it's way to hot for it anyway. I plop back onto the bed, this time without the blankets on me. I feel Adrian move and I go stiff. I feel her arm over my stomach. Does she know she is doing this? No she has to be asleep. It's fine. It's Adrian. My old best friend. What's an arm gonna do? I feel her fingers on my stomach and it makes me feel hot again. I take a deep breath and lick my now chapped lips. Just go to sleep jes. I think to myself. She rolls over and moves her arms. I take a huge breath of relief and close my eyes.

When I wake up the second time it isn't because of how hot I was it was my stupid phone going off over and over again. I open my eyes and see that I am in bed alone. I grab my phone and open it up. My mom has called about 23 times and texted about 12. I hurry up and call her, if I don't she will be freaked out. "Hello, where are you? What are you doing?" She sounds out of breath. "I'm at Adrain's mom" I tell her and she lets out a sigh of relief. "What she is back!? Anyway I'll be there in 20 minutes, you better be ready, bye" with that she hung up. "Bye.." I say to the already hung up phone. "Good morning sleepyhead." Adrain says with her amazing voice. "Well Good morning" I say back and stretch, and remember I don't have a shirt on. Crap. I get up and walk into the bathroom where my/her shirt was, but now it's gone. I don't wanna bother her but I can't really not have a shirt. "Hey uh sorry but like, do you know what happened to my shirt? Or your shirt? Or whatever?" I asked stuttering for some reason. She came from the other room and looked at me up and down. She never looked at me like that when we were younger? She quickly looked away and got another shirt from her dresser. "Here ya go" she hand me the big white t shirt. I smile and put it on, loving the fact I got to take cloths of hers with me.  "My mom is coming to get me. She will be here in about...15 minutes." I say with a sigh. I wish she still went to school. At least I would be able to see her there but... "Don't sounds too happy there sunshine." She says and comes to sit next to me. I lean my head on her shoulder and wrap my arms around her. "I don't wanna leave youuuuu." I say in a puppy voice that I cringed at afterwards. But she must've thought it was cute by how she smiled at me. We just smiled at each other for a long time. It was amazing. Until she looked away. "You better get your stuff together huh?" She said and looked back at me. "Yeah" I said and rolled my eyes. She giggled at my actions. "I promise that we will hang out again. I'm not gonna leave you again." Her words sounded so truthful so real. I smiled at her and sighed. I hear my phone go off and when I look at it I get even more disappointed. I sigh way over exaggeratedly and throw myself on top of Adrain. We both go backwards so now I'm on top of her squeezing her and she is below me giggling. "You better come see me Adrain"I say and then I feel her kiss my head. "Don't worry froggy, I will."
