Jaime
Kelsey and I have been dating for nearly 4 months now and they've been the best 4 months of my life. We see eachother nearly everyday and never get sick of eachother. She's becoming more comfortable around the guys as well as me.

Her and Ashlee have also become really good friends, so we double date with her and Mike sometimes, much to Mikes annoyance.
"It's not that I don't like them, I just don't like dates" Mike whined as he and Ashlee were talking on the couch at the Fuentes house as we called it.

"Well maybe if you were a bit more classy like them, we would have more fun together" she said.
"we do have fun though" he smirked.
"You know what I mean Michael" she said bitterly.
"I'm right here you know" I sighed.

"Sorry Hime" she said going into the kitchen.
"Why'd you have to get a girlfriend and raise the bar for everyone else?" Mike asked me grumpily.
"You're the only one complaining" I laughed as he folded his arms.

Suddenly my phone rang, it was Kelsey.
"Hey Kels" I said.
"Hey, I was wondering if you wanted to hang out?" She asked.
"Yeah sure, anything to get away from Mike" I laughed.
"Fuck off Hime" he yelled as he threw a cushion at me.

10 minutes later Kelsey walked in. She knows this place has an open door policy.
"Kelsey!" Ashlee practically yelled and hugged her.
"Ashlee!" She yelled back. Yeah, Kelsey really fit in with us.

"I've come to save Jaime from Mike" she said grabbing my hand and pulling me up off the couch.
"Thank god" I said dramatically.
"Whatever" Mike smirked.

We waved goodbye and got into Kelsey's car.
"What's wrong?" I asked her after a while.
"Nothing" she said unconvincingly.
"You're running your hand through your hair and you only do that when something's on your mind" I said.

"How did you know that?" She asked, giving up on acting like she was fine.
"I notice things" I said simply. She parked the car outside of a random shop and turned to me.

"My parents want to meet you" she sighed.
"I didn't think they knew about me yet" I said surprisingly.
"They didn't, until my sister opened her big mouth and told them" she sighed, obviously frustrated.

"Why don't you want me to meet them?" I asked, slightly hurt.
"Babe it's not you I'm worried about, it's my dad. He has a tendency to scare away any guy I get close to" she said.
"Well he won't scare me away" I said holding her hand.

She looked down at her phone as it beeped.
"Well it looks like we'll be finding out. He just invited us to dinner" she said.
