"Well today has been extra bad."

"Why's that?"

Ugh he's so thoughtful he doesn't even care that all I'm doing is complaining.

"First I slept through my alarm and no one thought to wake me up. Then everyone complained that I made us late! I got bad score on my English test and a pop quiz in math. To top it all off I got a ton of homework!" I finish with a none to graceful plop onto the couch Jason is sitting on.

"Aw come here I know what'll fix your day."

"What?"

"Cuddling" he gives me a cheeky smile.

Wow could he be anymore perfect? I smile happily and curl into his arms.

"Better?" He asks.

"Better."

We lie like that for awhile just comfortably in each other's presence until my phone starts ringing. I go to grab it, but Jason beats me too it.

"Who's Ethan?" He sounds a little upset but I can't imagine why.

"My brother. You know the one that's in the grade ahead of us?"

"Oh, yeah" he laughs almost nervously "I forgot."

I just laugh it off and excuse myself to answer Ethan.

"Hey Ethan what's up?"

"Not much where've you been Harls it feels like I haven't seen you in forever."

"I'm just at a friends house no biggie I'll be home in a bit."

"Ok see you then I guess…"

"Got to go Ethan bye." I end the call before he answers eager to get back to Jason. I walk back to the couch and lean into Jason's arms.

"So I've been thinking…"

"Yeah?" I'm nervous I don't know why tho.

"I've been having a really good time hanging out with you…" he takes a deep breath "would you possibly want to be my girlfriend?"

Oh my gosh! My first boyfriend! Wow we can go in dates and do cute couple things and Rachel and Georgie will be totally jealous. I just can't—

"Harley? Harley? Is that a no?"

"No! I mean yes! Sorry yes I would love to be your girlfriend!"

He smirks at my answer and I'm just so excited I don't even realize that he's leaning in for a kiss. Suddenly his lips are on mine and I'm kind of startled. I think he noticed that I was a little uncomfortable but he just kept going. That's not a bad thing I guess, I mean we are boyfriend and girlfriend now doesn't that mean that we should kiss? I'm probably just nervous. Yeah. I finally give into the kiss and I like it. We keep making out for a bit more then he tries to go a bit farther. I feel his hand moving up to the back of my bra, and I freeze. I push him off gently.

"I don't think I'm ready for that quite yet…"

He looks a little upset, but he backs off. I check the time.

"Oh my gosh wow! I have to go home before my family starts to worry!"

"Ok I'll walk you out."

He walks me to the front door of his house; as im about to leave he pulls me to him and gives me a peck on the lips.

"One for the road." He winks.

I just smile and with that I'm out the door and walking to my house. It's a good thing we only live a few blocks apart. I finally make it to my house and slip in the front door.

"I'm home." I announce as my mom comes around the corner.

"Oh Harley where did you come from we thought you were upstairs all afternoon?"

Ouch.

"Remember mom I told you I was going to a friends house after school?"

"Oh yes you did tell me that. How did you get home? Did you get a ride? You know I don't like you getting rides from strangers! I could—"

"Mom mom relax I walked. His house is only a few blocks from here."

"His?" My Dad asked appearing from the next room. "You were at a boys house?"

Lewie and Beast came running from upstairs.

"Harley was at a boys house!"

I hear the rest of my family enter the room, and from there it was pretty much a family interrogation
