After a long walk to the car, Bryan and I finally went home. We pull up to my house and he stops.
"Thanks Em."
"For what?"
"For being you. See you Monday." he winks and smirks. I blow him a kiss sarcastically and roll my eyes. Still not leaving, I wave. Still doesn't move.
"Why aren't you going home?"
"I want to make sure you get inside safely."
"It's 10 feet away. I'll be ok."
"Em, just go."
"Fine. Goodbye Bryan."
"Good night."
I turn around and walk to the front door. With my hand on the door, I turn around and find Bryan still waiting. I wave one last time and enter the house. I look through the window and see Bryan driving off. I breath a sigh of relief and go upstairs to my room. I open the door to see the lights on and Bethany, Becky, and my mom waiting for me. I enter and we all immediately start squealing. I look at my mother weirdly and she just smiles.
"How was it? Was he dreamy? How did he ask you out?"
"Woah. You knew he was going to ask me out?"
"Of course! Your mom told me and I told Becky."
I look at my mother who blushes.
"That's why he came over early. To ask your father for permission."
Becky and Bethany stare at me and make an "aww" noise.
"Well, I'll leave you girls alone. I'll get snacks and you can tell them all about your date."
"Thanks mom."
She blows me a kiss and leaves. Bethany grabs my arms and sits me on the giant pillow. Whenever someone has some gossip or something, they sit on the pillow and talk while everyone else sits in a circle and listens and makes comments.
"Well?!? Tell us about it."
So I start talking. I tell them about the diner and the park and the dancing and then when he asked me out.
"Awww! That is so sweet! He is amazing! I'm so upset I have to hate him."
"Bethany!"
"What? He's your boyfriend. I'm the best friend. It's mutual."
"Do you know what that means?"
"Nope."
We all laugh and eat some of the pretzels my mom brought up along with some smoothies. We talk until midnight then watch our favorite movie, Pitch Perfect. We finally go to bed at 5 am and wake up at noon. I'm last one up.
"EMILY WAKE UP TURDFACE!!!"
"Ahh! Becky, what the heck!"
"Sorry, but someone's here to see you." she wiggles her eyebrows and I instantly know who it is.
"Crap, he can't see me like this! Where is he?!?"
"Right here princess. And I think you look gorgeous."
Arms wrap around me and I spin around to see Bryan standing there, smiling.
"Bryan, what are you doing here?!"
"Sorry but I couldn't wait two days to see my princess."
"Idiot, I love you."
I stand on my toes and kiss him. Becky and Bethany aww in the background. We finish our kiss and I hug him.
"I'm hungry."
"You're always hungry princess. Lets get you food. Your mom made pancakes."
His hands hold onto my waist and before I know it I'm slung over his shoulder, my face in front of his butt. And let me tell you, I'm not complaining about the view. He carries me downstairs and through the kitchen.
"Morning sweetie. Bryan."
"Morning mom."
"Morning Mrs. Trop."
Bryan sits down at the table and I sit on his lap. Sam looks at me with a scrunched up face.
"Ew, what are you doing?"
"Shut up Sam."
I glare at him and he glares back. Then Bryan glares at him to. Then Bethany and Becky come today rand next to me and glare at him. Me being the only one not glaring anymore bursts out laughing. Everyone else, even Sam, starts laughing. I'm the last one to stop because my laughter is uncontrollable. Everyone in the room stares at me weirdly until I stop. Nervously, my laughter does down and I shovel pancakes one by one down my throat. After eating about 9, while everyone has only finished 4, I wait for Bryan to finish.
"Em, can I hang out with you today?"
"Hmm, I don't know. I have plans with my friends already." I say jokingly. I look over at Bethany and Becky, waiting for me to say yes.
"Can I hang out with all of you? Until 4?"
"Why until 4?"
"Brett invited me to baseball tryouts."
"Oh yeah. Sure, I guess you can hang out with us. You're cool enough."
I wink and we all start laughing. Sam looks at all of us and frowns.
"Man are you high school girls weird."
"I'm a boy."
"Hanging out with girls. Hmm. Sounds like a girl to me."
"She's my girlfriend."
"Eww! What the heck Emily."
Me and Bryan just laugh until he leaves. I kiss him on the nose and giggle.
"We were going to go to the mall today so if you would meet us here at noon then it should be okay."
"Okay. I'll see you later princess."
"Bye."
He gets up and leaves. Becky looks at me and smiles while Bethany is in awe.
"He calls you princess!!!! Ahhh!"
"Oh my gosh, I know right!!!!"
"You have to look super cute for the movies. Bethany, why don't you invite Brett? I'll invite Jason."
Jason is her guy best friend. Also her crush. He's also me and Bethany's friend. He's actually really cool.
"Sure. But that means we all have to look super cute. And we only have two hours!!"
Bethany finally speaks up.
"Okay. Me and Becky will go home and take showers. We'll pick out clothes to wear and meet back here at 11:30. You take a shower and pick something out to wear too. We have to get dressed at the same time, okay?"
"Sounds good. Becky, is Jason coming?"
"yeah he'll meet us there."
"Great. Mission Movie Date is a go."
They gather their things and leave. I eat another pancake then put my plate in the dishwasher. I go upstairs and take a shower.
