"Hey!"

I looked up and saw Freddy waving to me form the entrance to the Multiplex. I smiled and walked over.

"Hey, you haven't been waitng, have you?"

"No, just got here. Zack was taking forever getting ready."

"Yeah, Summer was too. Who would've thought they would get together?"

"Who would've thought we'd get together?" said freddy and he took hold of my hand. I smiled nervously. Ok, he's holding your hand, no need to panic. I loosened up and felt a bit more comfortable as we walked into the cinema slowly.

"Uh oh!" I said suddenly as we ehaded for the ticket desk. fredyd looked up, seeming concerned.

"What is it?" he asked quickly.

"The movie. It's NC-17! We're too young, they won't sell me the ticket. I don't look seventeen," I rpotested, hesitating near the ticket desk. Freddy sighed.

"Of course they will. Don't worry, just go ahead, I've got your back!" said Freddy calmly, urging me to go and pay.

I took a deep breath and headed towards the counter.

"Hey, one for American Fury please," I said cooly, throwing my hair over one shoulder. I knew I didn't look seventeen, even if Summer and I had tried really hard when getting ready.

I was dressed in a dark denim skirt with knee boots, on loan from Summer and a red sweater with a denim jacket. My hair was still in soft curls and my make-up was as heavy as ever. I kenw I looked older but I wasn't sure whether I looked old enough to pass for seventeen.

"Do you have any proof of age?" said the guy behind the desk, eyeing me up suspiciously. I stared at him as if I thought he was joking. Just play cool.

"What?" I said, trying to seem shocked for being asked that.

"Hey! What's going on here?" called a deep voice from behind me. Freddy came sauntering over and gave the guy a disgusting look.

"Can I help you?" said the guy at the desk.

"Yeah you can. Can you tell me why you're mouthing off to my girlfriend?"

"Sorry, dude, I need proof of age."

"Are you trying to say me and my girlfriend carry around ID cards like morons?"

"No I'm not saying that."

I knew what Freddy was doing, he was acting like a tough guy, trying to intimidate the guy behind the counter. After all, Freddy did look a few years beyond his age, being tall and everything.

"Well, how about you just serve my girlfriend and get me a ticket while you're at it?"

"I can't serve anybody under the age restriction."

"Do I look like I'd date a kid?!?" said Freddy, even louder so a lot of people were staring now. Obviously wantign to avoid a scene, the guy handed over the tickets and we handed over the money and headed for the cinema.

"I can't believe you just did that!" I whispered once we were further away form the guy.

"Well, I told you I got your back."

"You called me your girlfriend."

"You are......aren't you?" said Freddy nervously.

"Yeah," I said with a giggle. Next thing I knew, Freddy was leaning closer to me. I kenw what was coming next. I closed my eyes. and felt his lips connect with mine. I felt as though an electrical current had been shot through my body. It was amazing. Unbelieveable.

"About time you two!"

I knew it was Summer calling that but I paid no attention and enjoyed my first real kiss......
