Thomas Jefferson POV:
It was 6 o'clock in the afternoon and I was waiting outside of Angelica's house. I pulled out my phone and texted her.

I looked up and saw Angelica wearing a skirt that looked Heather Chandler's except pink and a black shirt that said WORK in gold letters. I could tell that she was trying to wear something nice but not make it like she was trying to hard or make it seem like this is an actual date. I respected that.
I got out and opened her door for her. She gave me a look of distaste. "I can open my own door, thanks." Then she hopped in.
Geez. Well that didn't go how I expected it to.
"I'm kinda hungry. Do you mind if we stop somewhere to eat?" I asked her.
"Sure, but I don't want to go to a stuffy restaurant." Angelica said.
I couldn't agree more.

Angelica Schuyler POV:
My date with Thomas wasn't going horrible. We stopped by a small cafe. I grabbed a powdered donut from there and Thomas got a chocolate filled croissant.
I was already eating my donut when we walked out of the cafe.
I saw him glancing over at me and smirking.
"What?" I demanded.
"You have powdered sugar all over your face." He said before cracking up.
I started to aggressively wipe my face off with a napkin. Thomas was still laughing. Some of the powdered sugar was thick on the napkin. I smiled at him evilly, but he didn't notice. I then got the most sugary section of the napkin and then smeared it all over his face.
"Oh, it's on!" Thomas said as he smashed some of the powered sugar from his face into my hair.
"You may have a made powerful enemy!" I yelled. I took his croissant out of the bag the cafe gave us and I got a little bit of the chocolate out of it into my hand, then smacked him lightly on the face with it.
Thomas looked as if his croissant had betrayed him. He had his hand to his chest and had his eyes widened dramatically. I threw tiny piece of donut at him.
"You just love throwing food at me, don't you?" He said throwing his hands up dramatically. I knew he was referring to the coffee incident.
"Come on drama queen, lets go." I said because this probably looked like a weird scene to others. Two high schoolers turning each other into pastries on the sidewalk? Yeah, that seemed kind of weird. I linked my arm around his and started walking to his car.
"Well now I'm a literal and figurative snack." Thomas joked.
I rolled my eyes, but did smile. Thomas could be funny sometimes.
I started to wipe myself off. It was sort of successful. Except for my hair, my hair will have to be punished for days. I handed Thomas a napkin.
"I think I like you not covered in sugar." I said with a smirk.
He wiped some off then paused. He had some playfulness in his eyes. He glanced over at me and said with a wide smile "So, you like me."
I was horrified. I punched his arm and said "No. That's NOT what I meant and you KNOW IT."
He started to wipe off the rest of his face.
"Do I?" He asked with a smirk on his face.
"Casse toi." I said as I playfully slapped him.
He lightly laughed and started to drive.
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
On the way to the movie a conversation about the election came up.
"So what kind of tactics are you going to use?" Asked Thomas.
The question caught me off guard. "Uhh... for what?" I asked.
He playfully nudged me. "Ya know for the election. What tactics are you going to use? Posters? Pins? Candy? Doing speeches about why people should vote for you?"
"Oh! I think I'm going to do posters and speeches." I paused and thought for a moment "And candy."
"Well I'm going to go all out. Do everything I possibly can to win." He said pridefully.
"I expect nothing less from you, Thomas." I said.
He laughed. We made a plan to alternate between campaigning days. We would focus on my campaign tomorrow and focus on his the day after that and so on.
"I don't really have any posters ready." I admitted.
"I can help you work on some tonight." He offered.
"I don't really want to stay up too late with you. Plus, I shouldn't bring trash in the house." I teased, laughter ringing in my voice.
"I meant digitally. Geez." He said laughing.
I was going to give him a snarky response but then Thomas turned on the radio and listened the rest of the way there.

Thomas Jefferson POV:
When we walked into the movie theater we went straight to the concession stands. I got a large coke and a box of Reese's pieces. Angelica got a large sprite and a box of skittles. We decided to share a tub of popcorn. We went to choose our seats, we found some that weren't too far and not too close to the screen.
Angelica started to stumble in the darkness of the theater. I put one of my hands on her shoulder.
"Are you okay?" I asked concerned.
"Yeah, I'm fine." She assured me.
We sat down as the movie started.
A old woman's voice started to narrate. 'In the beginning there was only ocean. Until the mother island emerged. Te Fiti. Her heart held the greatest power ever known, it could create life itself!'
I looked over at Angelica and gave a small smile. I knew that she would like a movie that the creator of everything was female.
I started to get wrapped up in the plot and forgot that Angelica was there. Well, except for when we both reached for popcorn and our hands touched, and I blushed.
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
When the movie ended we decided to swing back over to the concession stands to get refills on our soda.
Once I was about to drop her off at her door, she put her arms around me. I returned the hug, but I was confused why hugging me.
"Thanks for tonight, I really enjoyed it." She said once she let go of me.
"What can I say except you're welcome? For the tides, the sun, the sky." I sang. "Hey, it's okay, it's okay, you're welcome. I'm just an ordinary demi-guy!"
Angelica laughed angelically. "You're actually a good singer." She remarked.
"Thanks. Maybe I should go become a broadway star." I said jokingly.
Angelica snorted. "You need acting talent to do that." She said with playfulness in her eyes.
"Wow. Shatter all of my dreams." I said putting a hand on my heart.
Angelica looked back at her house and gave me another quick hug. After the hug she gave me a little shove.
"I best be going now. Goodnight Thomas." She said.
"Goodnight Angelica." I replied.
I hopped in my car and started to head home.
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
When I got home I was greeted by my shepherd dog, Grizzle, barking.
My seven year old sister, Lucy, came out of her room and asked "Where were you?"
"At the movie theater." I replied.
"With who?" She pressed.
"I friend." I said, my voice edged with annoyance.
"A girl?" She asked.
"Yes." I answered flatly.
"Is she your girlfriend?" Lucy asked giggling.
"No." I said, walking away.
Lucy was still giggling. I called Grizzle and went into my room.
I got on my laptop and started designing some posters that I could print out for Angelica tomorrow. They weren't anything fancy, all they said was 'Vote for Angelica Schuyler' in gold lettering.
Once they were done, I stared at the ceiling in the dark for about an hour. I eventually drifted off to sleep with Grizzle next to me.
