We were all getting ready in Amber and Nina's room, when I was the first one done. I decided to go visit my brother Fabian. I saw all the boys sitting around in the common room. But Fabian wasn't there. I grew skeptical.
"Hey, where's Fabian?" I asked.
"Our room." Mick said. Then he continued to drone on about how hungry he was. I decided to walk in the room without knocking. I walked in and saw Fabian shirtless trying to pick out a shirt.
"Hey Mick, which one do you think Nina will like more?" he asked turning around with both shirts in his hands. I smirked and he blushed.
"Patricia, get out I don't even have a shirt on!" Fabian said trying to push me out the door.
"Quit avoiding the topic! And besides, you act like you don't walk around our house without a shirt on on the daily basis! Now, you like Nina?" I asked raising an eyebrow.
"What's it to you?" he retorted.
"You're my brother, I wanna know!" I pouted. Yes, I pouted. I smirked with an idea. "And besides, I'll tell you which shirt Nina will like more!"
"Yes, now which one!" he said all to quickly.
"Purple, she's wearing purple too." I winked and walked out his room. The boys were all wearing the same thing. Long sleeve dress shirts, to match their girls, and a black tie, with black jeans. I went back up the stairs. Nina and the other girls were ready.
"Come on girls, the boys are waiting, and Mick is hungry!" I laughed.
"Awwwww!" cooed Mara. Of course SHE would say that to Mick's hunger. But it's sweet how cute they are together. All us girls walked down the stairs fumbling in our shoes, trying to get off the stairs. It was very un-elagant until we hit the bottom. That's when all hell broke loose with Joy's feelings...
Joy's POV
We were piled in the van driving to the restaurant with Mick driving. Mara was in the passenger seat with Alfie squished in with her, Amber, Jerome, and Patricia in the very back, and in my row I was in between Nina and Fabian. Juuust great... Nina and Fabian were texting back and forth, and it was really giving me a headache. I heard Nina giggle, after she got a message. I rolled my eyes. I heard her fingers pound away on the keypad, and a few seconds later Fabian laughing. The next text wasn't funny apparently, 'cuz i saw Nina shake her head and send another text. Fabian leaned forward to look at her. He raised an eyebrow. She shrugged her shoulders. They sat back up and I began glaring at Nina. Watching... Her... Every... MOTION! I saw her face go shocked, and then soften up. She giggled and blushed before sending her next message. I looked over towards Fabian. He bent down and snapped his fingers. Nina leaned down. I saw him mouth 'It's true you know.' and Nina shook her head while blushing. Then she punched in her last text.
"We're here!" Mick shouted out. I let out a sigh of relief. We all filed out the car in an unorganized way. We went into the restaurant which was a block down the road. When Nina was singing Love Game by Lady Gaga and Jerome decided to join in. Pretty soon all 8 were singing, but I refused. We all got weird looks from people who walked by us. Yeah, I'd look at us like that too... We arrived to the restaurant, and sat down. Jerome next to the wall, then Patricia, Mara, and Mick on the end. Next to our wall was Fabian, Nina, me, Amber, then Alfie on the end. We sat across from each other and waited for the waitress. We began looking over our menus, and decided we all wanted some sort of pasta. When the lady came up to us, Patricia, Jerome, Fabian, and Nina ordered a Sprite. Me, Mara, and Mick ordered a Coke. While Alfie and Amber ordered ginger ale.
"Wait, can I get 4 cherries please?" asked Nina. Wow she's a fiend.
"Sure thing." the waitress replied.
"What do yo-" Fabian tried to ask but Nina cut him off.
"You'll see Fabian, you'll see." Oh, she's rude too?
Amber's POV
I was secretly texting Nina from under the table about Fabian.
Me: Forward me the messages!
Nina: Kk hold on!
Nina: This is only the good part of our convo. Here you go!
"Fabian: Sooo, you look nice tonight Nina: Thanks! Hey, I just noticed we match!
Fabian: Lol, on pupose-ish Nina: Cool, Amber's told me we look cute togeether...
Fabian: I just noticed how pretty your eyes really are... Have you noticed?
Nina: Thanks, and no they're not, quit lying.
Fabian:Yes they are Nina: Thanks
Me: Awwwww! SO cute!
Nina: Thanks, I really like him.
Amber: You should, he's really kind.
Nina: LOOK FOOD!
I snapped my head over to the food. Yum. They even brought out the drinks.
"O.k., who ordered Sprite?" Nina asked. Jerome, Patricia, and Fabian raised their hands. Nina picked up the cherries, and plucked off the stems. "This is something I used to do in America." she said. She passed a cherry to Jerome, Fabian, and Patricia. "Bite it in half." she instructed. They did as told, and she did the same. "Now drop it in and give it time." she said while dropping her cherry into her drink. We talked, and drank for the rest of the night, until it was time to go home. We had school tommorrow!
Nina's POV
I was walking with Fabian back to the van, and I sivered. He put his arm around me and pulled me closer. I saw Jerome point towards us and whisper to Patricia. When he looked back over I made eye contact and gave him a look.
"Everything o.k.?" Fabian asked
"Hmm...? Oh, yeah I'm fine..." I said We walked on in scilence towards the van, and this time I was in the middle. Fabian to my left, and Joy to my right. Only seat changes. Fabian's harm was still around me so I leaned up and kissed his cheek.
"Thanks." I said looking into his blue eyes.
"What for?" he asked
"Your arm." I giggled out. I think I'm flirting...
"Well, you looked beau- cold." he said. He turned red. I hugged him, and from the backseat Jerome texted me, and Fabian at the same time. I looked at my phone, and he looked at his.
Jerome: Seperate... NOW!
Fabian hugged me, and scooted closer towards the window. I texted back.
Me: What the hell Jerome!
Jerome: Well...
Me: Ugh, so annoying!
Jerome: It's an older brother thing! Fabian did it to me when me and Patricia were shamelessly flirting!
Just then Fabian whispered in my ear. "He's right... And besides, he only wants to protect his little sister." I looked up. He had startled me! I put my phone doen and pouted in my seat...
But not before smacking Jerome...
