Chapter 5
Elaine's p.o.v.
Jane Eyre was good like always. Andy liked it…and so did his family. Andy drove me home in silence until we were outside my house. "Do you want to go out to dinner Saturday?" Andy asked. "Ya I'd like that." I whispered. Andy leaned over the seat and kissed my cheek.
"Goodnight" I whispered. "Goodnight" He said. He didn't leave until I made it to my room. I watched him drive away. I sighed of contentment. That was my first date. My heartbeat was racing. How can him breaking my ankle lead to this? I'll probably never understand this. I was invisible to him a month and a half ago. And here we are now going on dates.
Andrew's p.o.v.
I was dreading going home. Papa's probably crying and dad's probably mad, he's probably going to want to kill me. I slowly walked up to my house. Dad's already waiting for me. "Explain," My dad's voice came. "I don't think I can." I whispered. "What do you mean you can't?!" Yelled my papa. "I'm sorry, but do you know how mean kids are?" I whispered. "You got bullied because of us?" My papa whispered. "Not so much with Uncle Scott around." I whispered. "I'm sorry dad" I whispered. "It's okay baby" He said coming to hug me. "I shouldn't listen to them. I know I have an amazing family." I whispered. "Shh…baby it's fine." He said. "Should have told us." My papa said, coming closer and closer ending up in a group hug.
Elaine's p.o.v.
My friends went on about how I shouldn't read too much into me and Andrew's movie night. "Like, come on he's popular for crying out loud." Amy partially yelled. "Yea Elaine, he probably pities you because he broke your ankle." Stefy added. I felt hurt and angry that my friends don't think I'm good enough for Andrew. "We're going back out on Saturday." I stated willing my anger away.
My mood picked up as soon as I saw Andrew. I was about to say hi, but Amy beat me to it. "Hey there." Amy said flirting I knew her too well to know that she's trying to get with him. "Um Hey." Andrew said, not even noticing the flirting or maybe he did and he just chose to ignore it. "Hey you." He whispered kissing my cheek. "Hey yourself." I whispered smiling and feeling confident and smug at the looks on Amy and Stefy's faces. "We still on for tomorrow?" He asked. "Of course." I said. He slowly put his arm around my shoulder. "That's great, I was thinking about taking you to La Casa." He said. "If Mexican's fine I mean." He started to stutter.
Andrew's p.o.v
"Mexican's fine." Elaine said. My cheeks flushed from embarrassment. Why do I smell jealousy and anger from Elaine's friends? "Okay" I said, "Hey I'll be right back okay. Stefy can you help me to the restroom?" Elaine asked. "Of course." Stefy? I think said. Then I was alone with Amy and all I could smell was hormones. GOD you have to be kidding me.
"So Andrew how's football?" Amy said. "Good." I said trying to ignore her flirting and obviously trying to get into my pants. YUCK! She's such a whore. "You're my favorite player, you know." She giggled moving closer to me. "That's cool." I said sliding away from her. Elaine needs to hurry up. "How about I watch you for practice?" She asked putting her hand on my leg and rubbing it up and down. I jumped up. "You make me sick." I hissed. "Excuse me?" She yelled. "You know I like Elaine and that she likes me."
I paused fully aware of the crowd forming. "And yet, you're still trying to get in to my pants." I said. "Elaine is immature and still a virgin, she can't satisfy you the way I can, she doesn't deserve you." Amy said. I can hear Elaine's heartbeat. "You think I care if she's a virgin? Well I don't! And just because you've been around doesn't make you mature and the only thing that you can satisfy with" I paused hearing Elaine hold her breath and heart speed up. Amy's smirk still smug on her face. "Leave me alone and stop pretending to be Elaine's friend." I said turning around to a crying Elaine. Next thing I know she's in my arms. "You're too perfect." She whispered.
