Josh's POV

Today was the day. I was going to "hang out" with Jennifer.

I got up after the most restless night of my life. I think I had some sort of nightmare, but I don't remember exactly what it was.

After a while, I decided to wear a pair of washed out jeans and a long-sleeved tshirt. The arms of it was red, and I also put on a necklace with a key on it.

I got some breakfast and was
off to school. On the way, I tried to decide if I should text Jennifer or not, but I finally decided to not. That would just seem desperate. But on the other hand, I WAS desperate.

School went by slowly, and I didn't listen to anything. The only thought in my head, was that I hadn't seen Jennifer all day. Maybe she was sick? Ir faked sick so she didn't have to go out with me? I mean, hang with me.

At the end of the day, while I was walking towards the parking lot, I walked past Jena.

"Jena!" I yelled, and she turned around. When she saw me, she got a wierd grimace on her face, looking disgusted for some reason.

"What do you wan't, Josh?" She asked, her voice as sharp as a knife.

"I was just wonderong if you had seen Jennifer anywhere?" I can honestly say, she scared me a little bit. Her eyes was as sharp as a dolk, drilling trough me.

"She is by your car, waiting for you."

"Okay, thanks!" I said as I started to run towards the parking lot.

There she stood, talking to Sam. Wait, what was Sam doing here? Jealousy hit me like a truck, but I shrugged it off. Sam was a friend, he would never do that if he knew that I liked someone.

HOLD ON ONE SECOND.

I stopped walking, and stared straight ahead.

Do I like Jennifer?

I started to walk again, and showed the thought out of my head.

When I got there, Jennifer didn't notice because she was standing facing Sam, with her back towards me. I slightly tapped her on her shoulder, and she jumped, turned around and slapped me.

Ouch.

"OUCH! WHAT WAS THAT FOR?!" I nearly scream, as I touch my cheek.

"You can't just walk up on people like that you moron!" She says agressivly. Her eyes shot me a death-glare.

It looked like she wanted to walk away.

I decided to change the subject.

"So, are you ready to go?"

"Yeah, I guess" she answered, and walked towards the passenger seat. I opened the door for her, and when she was inside, closed it behind her.

"Hey Josh, can I ask you something?" Sam suddenly asked from behind me.

"Yeah sure, what is it?"

"I don't think you should try anything just yet, she is like a fireball. If you touch her, she will probably burn trough your skin"

I laughed a bit, and just nodded. I turned around and got in the car. We waved to Sam, and after that I turned around to her.

"So, what do you wanna do?" I asked, and put on my sunglasses.

"Uhm, I don't know.. We can like, watch a movie or something?" She answered.

"Okay, but on one condition" I said.

"And that is what exactly?" She asked as she put on her seatbelt.

"I'll pay for the both of us" I say and wink to her.

WHY DID I DO THAT?! Gosh I'm such a dork sometimes.

"Uhhm okay," She answered "can you put on the radio?"

I did, and the song "Fancy" by Iggy Azalea came on.

She started to sing and rap along, like I wasn't there. I tought there was no reason to be shy, and sang a little bit too.

When the song was over, we were at the cinema. She really wanted to see the movie "If I Stay", and I had heard it was extremely sad. I got the tickets while Jennifer found popcorn.

About an hour into the movie, I looked over at Jennifer. She had tears floating down her cheeks, and still she looked really pretty. I had already tried to hold around her or hold her hand, but I remembered what Sam said, and then changed my mind.

Suddenly, something happened that I had not expected. Jennifer laid her head on my shoulder, and kicked her legs up in her seat, clearly to sit more comfortable. I froze, but as an instinct, I laid my arm around her, just like Sam had told me not to. She sighed, and laid her head on my chest instead.
