Theo's pov
I stumbled down her stairs in her blue blouse and old jeans, she turned the corner to find her father at the kitchen table. "Good morning theo!" He said with a big smile. "Morning dad." I say as I take my backpack off as silver hook, and place next to me on the floor. "I made you a sunny side up egg your favorite." He says well his smile grows even bigger. "Thank you dad." I tell him as I sit down and give him a little kiss on the cheek. I gobble up my sunny side up egg, the pack my lunch and head to the door.
On the way to school I think about Phillips curly brown hair and his freckles glowing in the sunlight, to bad are parents are sworn enemy's because I really wish we could be more then friends. Are dad's have only ever been together in a room once since Hamilton endorsed Thomas Jefferson instead of my father. That was the day we told them that me Phillip and Angie wanted to be friends. I think they only let us be friends because Eliza helped convince them it would be alright. I've always loved Eliza she's so sweet and kind, I've only met her a couple of times but shes always liked me it seems like and shes been extremely nice to me. Just then we pulled into the schools small parking lot. I hopped out of the black corvet and shut the door, I wave goodbye to my father as I head towards my bench. I sat down on the old wooden bench and pulled out my coy of Cinderella. I was almost done the book for a second time but I wanted to have a very clear comprehension of the books plot and characters.
Phillips school bus pulled up half an hour later I could see his round face in the widow barley. He seemed scared or nervous I wondered what was going through his brain. Angie's brownish and reddish hair fell around her small shoulders. I stood up my bag and book in my hand. Just the Phillip walked towards me his hands were shaky he seemed so scared for some reason. Angie followed right behind him holding a light purple poster board. I put my book in my backpack and smiled he then said
"I have a surprise for you Theo." "What is it Phillip?" I said as I took a eager step towards him. He took a deep breath then got down on one knee, Angie handed him the light purple poster board. Theo will you go the spring dance with me? He says I could see a wave of relief go over him. I stand there in shock the say "YES!" He stood up his smile was so bright. He picked me up off the ground and I kissed his light pink lips. As my hands ruffled his curly brown hair I felt his hands grip my hips I felt like I was flying. I felt my feet hit the ground I let go of his hair and smiled at him and he smiled back. Just then I heard clapping it was all of are classmates I was so embarrassed but I'm going to the dance with Phillip so I didn't really care. Then the bell rang and we had to head to class.
I rushed inside and sat down in my science class. I zoned out for most of the class only taking notes here and there. I couldn't stop thinking about are kiss it was amazing. He is the best kisser, I wish I could be back there In front of the school kissing Phillip for the rest of eternity. Just then the bell rings and head off to lunch. Well there we discuss are plan to tell are father's about this and when will get are dress and his suit. We decide that on Saturday will tell are father's over dinner at Phillips house because they will be less likely to lash out in front of all of all of Phillips siblings. I know dad won't be happy about this but Phillip makes me happy.
After school I hop in my dad's car, he smiles at me I look at him and smile too. "What are you smiling about?" He says as he pulls out of the parking lot. "Nothing much, oh by the way Phillip invited me and you over for dinner this Saturday." I tell him. "That sounds fun but will his father be there?" My father asks me. "Yes, he will be there me and Phillip have something to tell you guys." "Theo, you know I don't get along with Mr. Hamilton." He says sternly. " I know dad but this is important to me." I said. "Fine." He says, his smile was gone.
At home I do my homework and then take a shower. I can't believe I'm going to the dance with Phillip it just doesn't feel real to me. As a get changed into my pyjamas I can't help but think about are kiss. His hands on my hips, my hands in his hair, his soft pink lips colliding with mine. I get snapped out of my thoughts when dad calls me for dinner. We say nothing during dinner dad still seems angry about having to spend dinner with Mr. Hamilton, but I don't care today has been the best day off my life. After dinner I wash the dishes then head upstairs to bed, as I collapse in my bed I imagine the dance and kissing Phillip under the flashing lights.
