The secrets of summer

Chapter 9

It's Sunday morning and I call Bri to ask her how the date went. She tells me it was great they went to a football game together than he took her out to eat at Le Chateau.

When he brought her home, he smiled at her and said "I had the most fun tonight than I have in a long time."

He leaned in and kissed her cheek. When he pulled away he kept his face just an inch for hers.

"Me too," Answered Bri.

He turned to go and she asked "when can I see you again?"

He turned back around and wrapped his hands in her hair and kissed her hard, once they broke away he said "whenever you want."

I scream over the phone "That's so cute, looks like someone's found themselves a romantic!"

I tell her about what happened with Tiff and I and she apologizes. I really hope Bri will have someone. She's the most amazing person I know and she's alone. How does that make any sense? I think the world is hypocritical, it wants you to be perfect but makes sure that you're alone.

Later tonight I'm meeting a new girl I met at my work named Hope. She is absolutely gorgeous, brown hair, blue eyes, medium height and a petite figure. She said she is coming to my school next year and will hopefully be in some of my classes. She moved here for New York the end of May but didn't finish the end of school. She's a year older than me, but is going to be held back for that reason. It'd be great to have a new friend since my falling out with Tiffany.

I spot Hope already in line and I go to meet her. "Wow, you can easily pass as 20."

I laugh thinking that my mom always tells me that. "Thanks, I think."

She nods. I can't tell if this is going well or if it's awkward already, at least we won't have to do much talking inside.

When we finally get inside it's 9:30 and we can't believe our Fake ID worked. "We made it" I whisper to her.

We both laugh and hit the dance floor right away. Not fifteen minutes later I feel a body start to grind up behind me. Hope's right in front of me and she also has a guy, she lifts up her eyebrows and nods to say score! I lift my hand up and put it on the guys face. I start to panic because I feel guilty about Austin. I'm not cheating on him, am I? No it would only be cheating if I kissed him, we're just dancing. He spins me around and I gasp. I'm starting to get thirsty and I don't think they have water here. Or maybe no one orders it.
