A/N: Sam=Samantha Droke

"I didn't like her the first moment I met her, though i never knew why."

The rest of the weekend went by fairly quickly. The whole time I did nothing but think about my final answer to the boy I was starting to become best friends with. A part of me was still screaming NO, but another part was screaming give him a chance. Sadly, neither side was louder than the other.

I quickly ran around my room trying to get ready in a timely manner. I was extremely nervous and I couldn't find anything to wear. Justin and I had been dating for about a week when I decided to ask him to join me at church to attend my youth group that night.

"It's just church." My mom said when she walked into my room and seeing me run around. "It's not like you're going on a date with the boy."

I made a face. "Mooooom, hush. I'm just excited ok." I pull a shirt over my head.

"Whatever." She shook her head and walked out of my room.

Finally, I was ready. And just in time too because right then the door bell rang signaling my friend had arrived to take my sister and I to church. "Have fun!" My mom hollered out as Gracie and I walked out the door.

"So, do I get to meet your new boy toy tonight?" My best friend Sam asked me when I sat next to her in the backseat of her moms car. Sam is a few years younger than me so we go to different schools. We met when she was twelve at church.

I gave her a look though I knew she was kidding. "He's not my boy toy. He's just a friend."

Sam lets out a laugh. "But do you like him?." I shrugged. "I don't know."

"But in all seriousness, I get to meet him today right?"

I giggled. "Yep."

We arrived to the youth building outside the main church ten minutes later. We ran in and I looked around.

"I guess he's not here yet."

"Well, we are here early."

"True."

Sam and I saved our seats with our stuff then met up with our other friends in the back of a building. The youth center was actually the church's gym. It was a big basketball court. In the back was the sound stage but to get to it you had to climb giant steps. On the steps is where we met our friends. I told them about Justin coming. Most of them already knew about him because of my relationship status on Facebook.

We were all sitting and talking on the steps when Justin finally walked in. I grinned when I saw him but my smile fell seconds later. A girl I had never seen before strolled in behind him. I suddenly felt really intimidated by this girl though I wasn't sure why. She had medium length light brown hair with blonde ends, she had brown eyes and a cute little dimpled chin. She was a really beautiful girl. I stared at her a moment as she looked around the gym.

"That's my sister Demi." Justin said to me breaking my thoughts. I hadn't even seen him approach where I was sitting. He was standing in front of me now. I smiled slightly as Demi approached us.

"Hi." She said to us.

I waved to her slightly.

"Hey." My friend Michael spoke for me. I then took over and introduced Justin and Demi to everyone.

Minutes later, it was time for us to take our seats. We all went to our seats but for whatever reason Justin didn't follow us. He sat in the back row which was about 3 rows behind us.

"Why isn't he coming to sit with us?" Sam asked from beside me. I shrugged and gave the boy a questioning look. He just shrugged and I turned around as we were about to start. I glanced down the row toward the new girl, Demi. I can tell you one thing though. I do not like this Demi chick very much though I'm not sure why. I barely knew this girl but there was something about her that my gut said to stay away from her. I just couldn't for the life of me put my finger on it. Why not like her? She hasn't done anything to me. I shrugged to myself. Oh well I probably won't see her much after tonight anyway. With that thought, I finally focused on what was going on around me.

"Why didn't you sit with us?" I asked Justin when everything ended and we were walking away from our seats.

"I just wanted to let you sit with your friends."

I gave him a confused look. "But I wanted you to sit with us and for you to get to know everybody."

"I just don't do well in crowds. I'm more of a loner and keep to myself."

"Oh." I just decided to let the whole thing go. I didn't think it mattered enough to start a fight over or make him uncomfortable.

"Listen, I'd like you to meet my dad." He said changing the subject and stopping an awkward silence before it started.

I suddenly felt nervous. "You do? Why?"

He stopped and glanced down at me. "Why not? You've met my mom, my sister and my step dad. Only person left is my real dad."

I let out a breath trying to relax myself. "Ok, when?"

"This weekend. He is coming to hang out with me and my sister. I figure he and I could swing by your house while we are out."

I thought a moment. "Sure, yeah, ok."

"Awesome. We'll come by sometime in the afternoon on Saturday."

"Cool."

I ran over to my friends once our conversation was over. Demi was already with them. She was listening to everyone's conversation. She'd jump in on occasion. I climbed the steps on over to my friend Michael and sat next to him. I leaned into him and he put his arm around me. Now before you freak out on me, this means nothing. Michael is five years younger than me so it'd never happen. This is completely platonic. He's just really comfortable. Sam was already curled up on the other side of Michael. I tuned into the conversation as I got settled.

Demi turned to me.

"I already knew Sam when you introduced us."

"You did?" I asked turning to Sam.

"Yeah." Sam agreed. "We had a math class together last year."

"Oh cool." Demi turned away from us to talk to someone else.

"I don't like Demi very much." Sam said once she knew Demi wasn't listening.

"Why not?" I asked giving her a confused look.

"I don't know. I just don't. There's something about her."

Michael seemed to agree. I looked over at Demi. Her back was to me so she didn't acknowledge that I was looking at her. What was it about this girl that made everyone not like her?

Finally, on May 4, 2010, I gave the extremely patient boy an answer. I had completely avoided the situation the day before but now Ashley wanted to know how everything went.

"I had a lot of fun actually. I didn't expect it honestly but the movie was awesome!"

Justin looked over at me. "So, what's your answer?" He asked me nervously.

I smiled slightly at him and took his hand in mine. "Yes, I'll go out with you."

"Yay!" He exclaimed like a little kid. I couldn't help but to laugh.

The doorbell rang throughout the house. The day Justin had been talking non stop about the last two days at lunch had arrived. I looked through the peep hole and rolled my eyes. I didn't know Demi would be with them. I opened the door and smiled.

"Hey!" I hugged Justin and let his sister and his dad in. My mom introduced herself and I introduced Demi to Gracie. Demi had just missed meeting Gracie at church Wednesday since she was with her group of friends. My dad came home a little later and began talking to my mom and Justin's dad. After a while, the parents went for a walk while we stayed behind to play Bandhero. Gracie and Demi were both put in charge. 'Great, I'm gonna be babysat by two fourteen year olds.' I thought to myself. They were mainly supposed to make sure Justin and I didn't do anything we weren't supposed to do.

"Kiss, make-out, do whatever the hell you want. I don't care." Demi joked as soon as the adults left, though part of me thinks she wasn't actually kidding.

We played Bandhero for a bit though Justin refused to play. Then we went out on the golf cart. Demi begged to drive but I wouldn't let her. After only thirty minutes though, we had to bring it in because it was starting to rain. Instead of running inside though, we chose to play in it. We got fused at but we didn't really care. We jumped around, danced and acted like a bunch of little kids. We ran down the street and jumped in the puddles. We played in the little stream created as the rain rolled down the hill.

After a while, we were called to come inside. Demi and Gracie ran ahead. I stopped Justin and looked up at him with a smile on my face.

"What? Why'd we stop?" He asked me confused. I put my finger up signalling for him to wait.

"Hey, you guys coming?" Demi yelled as Gracie ran inside the garage.

"Yeah be there in a second!" I yelled back. Demi turned and ran into the garage after looking at us for moment.

I turned back to Justin and smiled again. "What?" I leaned in slowly and placed a gentle kiss on his lips. I made it only last a second though as I was really nervous about it. I turned and ran away from the boy giggling like a maniac.

And that day standing out in the rain, I had my first kiss with Justin.

Sorry its so short and just to warn you the next one is a little short as well. but ill try to post again soon. This and any other short chapter that i post in the future will basically be filler chapter. They will be like the bridges that will lead you to the next big part of the story.

P.S. I also know Demi's correct hair color(s) back in 2010, but the real person demi portrays in this story had that hair color.
