Tristan POV
The day after the thunderstorm, Zoë and I were wandering around the mall.
"So, what's gotten you so happy?" Zoë asked while looking at my unusually-smiling face
"I.. can't say.. not yet."
Zoë just rolled her eyes and we continued looking around. By 3 PM, we both had three new outfits and were at the food court. I got a big pretzel and Zoë got a blueberry smoothie. We found a table and sat across from each other.
"So when can you tell me what's making you so happy?" Zoë asked with a smirk
"Depends when he's r-" I started before quickly stopping myself
"Ooh, so it's a boy?"
"Yeah.." I admitted while taking a bite of my pretzel
"What's his name?" She interrogated
"I can't say.. He's not ready to come out."
"Okay." Zoë said while sighing
I just laughed and then we continued eating.
When I got home, I went up to my room. I sat on my bed and checked FaceRange and Hastygram. A while later, I got a message from Miles.
M- hey. u busy?
T- no. y?
M- parents r out. wanna come over?
T- sure! b there soon
M- ok
Then I put my phone in my pocket and went downstairs.
"Mom, I'm going out!" I yelled while putting my shoes on
"Ok. Be back by 11!" She yelled back
"Bye."
"Bye!"
Then I went outside and started walking to Miles' house. When I got there, I walked up to the front door and knocked on it. A few minutes later, Miles opened it.
"Hey." Miles said
"Hi."
"Oh, come in." He said while standing aside
"Thanks." I said while walking inside
"So.. do you wanna watch a movie or something?"
"Sure."
Then we walked into the living room and sat on the L shaped couch. Miles grabbed the remote off of the coffee table.
"Do you just wanna see what's on?" He asked
"Yeah."
"Gone Girl.. The Theory of Everything.." He listed off
"Ooh! I've been dying to see The Theory of Everything!"
Miles chuckled and then said "Okay." while putting the movie on. We sat a few inches apart from each other. About halfway through the movie, Miles put his hand on mine and we intertwined our fingers. A few minutes later, I saw him staring at me through the corner of my eye.
"What?" I asked while giggling
"Just lookin'"
"Well, the movie is on the screen." I joked
"Yeah, but the real show is right here." He said while nodding at me
Then he leaned in and kissed me. Soon we were making out and he was on top of me.
"Miles.. Can we.. talk?" I asked between kisses
"Yeah, of course." He said while getting off of me and sitting back down
I got back up and sat next to him.
"What exactly.. are we?" I asked
"Boyfriends?" He asked hopefully
I nodded and then blushed.
"And.. I'm fine if you want us to be a secret for a while until you figure things out.."
"Thanks." He said before kissing me
Then I looked at the clock and noticed that it was 10:45 PM.
"Crap. I gotta get home."
"Bye."
Then he kissed me and I left. I ran home and when I got there it was 10:57 PM. I went up to my room and changed into pajamas. A few minutes after I laid down, I fell asleep.
When I woke up, I slowly got out of bed and got one of the new outfits I bought with Zoë. I went into the bathroom, undressed myself and got in the shower. When I was done in the shower, I put my shirt and boxers on and when I tried to put my new pants on, they wouldn't fit.
Fat.
I rushed back to my room and put another pair of pants on. Then I went downstairs and saw a note on the front door. It read Tristan, your father and I will be running errands most of the day. There's money on the table for dinner. -Mom
I took the note and then went into the living room. I turned the TV on and sat on the couch. I didn't have anything to do today, so I just watched TV for a while.
