"I don't have anything to dress." Calleigh complained laying in the bed.
"You got your bed covered on clothes." Natalia pointed out.
"I know, but none of them is what I want."
"And what do you want?"
"I don't know!"
"o.k., dress or pants?"
"I don't know."
"Show me your dresses."
"She pointed at a pile of clothes."
"Where are you going?"
"His sister's café."
"o.k., what's he going to dress?"
"How would I know?!"
"o.k., do you have something black or white?"
"She nodded digging on the bed and pulling out a bunch of clothes."
"o.k., now put those away and put the rest on its place."
Calleigh hanged the clothes in the closet and sat on the bed in front of Natalia.
"So, it's hot, which means no sleeves." Natalia stated putting a couple dresses aside.
"Are you sure I should wear a dress?"
"Yes, now, this is too... casual."
"o.k."
"you could wear this one."
"No! that makes me look like a slut!"
"Then why do you have it?"
"Hot dates in discos."
"Got it."
"This one? Natalia offered rising a white dress that wasn't too revealing nor too closed."
"o.k., I like that one."
"Great, take it."
"Now shoes, flats or heels?"
"Show me your heels."
Calleigh dug the closet once again coming back with three pairs of shoes.
"No, flats. What do you got?"
She pointed at a pile of shoes.
"o.k., this ones, definitely."
Calleigh looked at the flats stripes white sandals that Natalia had picked with a smile and started to get dressed.
"o.k., if he doesn't like that I don't know what in the world he'll like girl."
Calleigh giggled spinning in front of the mirror.
"Now make up."
"Don't put any, you look great like that."
"You think?"
"Yes."
"o.k."
"now calm down, you look like a six year old in a sugar rush." Natalia said with a laugh.
Calleigh pushed lightly and they both sat in the sofa until the bell rang.
"That's for you." Natalia said laughing at how Calleigh had jumped of the couch and ran to the door.
"Hi." Calleigh greeted a 1000 watt smile in her face.
"Wow, you look great." Eric flattered his eyes widening a bit, after all, he hadn't seen Calleigh wearing something else other than tight jeans and shirts, and at the football games her equipment, that made her look just like all the other boys from the team.
"Thank you." Calleigh said blushing. "You look great too."
She waved at his pair of snickers, black jeans and dark shirt.
" This is for you." Eric remembered revealing a bucket from behind his back.
She held the bucket of roses and blushed deeply.
"I'll just put them in a jar, you can come in if you want."
"Sure."
They got in the house where Calleigh started to look for a jar.
"Wow, is that you Eric?" Natalia asked getting up from the couch.
"aren't you funny, yes."
"You look great."
"Thank you."
"Don't you want to get a boy from your football team to dress like that for me?"
"I could ask Ryan."
"DON'T YOU DARE!" Natalia screamed jumping of the couch.
"Why? He's a nice guy."
"I know that."
"And you do have a crush on him."
"Wow, how come that I don't know that?!" Calleigh intervened with the jar and flowers on her hands.
"It's a lie."
"Oh no, the way you're blushing it's not."
"don't you have some place to be?"
"You'll tell me everything about Ryan."
"No way." Natalia spat pushing her away and outside the house.
"Hum, that was weird." Eric joked when they walked to the motorcycle.
"She has a crush on Ryan?" Calleigh asked suspiciously.
"Oh yeah."
Calleigh laughed accepting the helmet as they climbed onto the motorcycle.
…..
"Hi Isabela." Eric greeted as he and Calleigh got into the cozy café.
"Hi you two, wow, what did I miss here, why are you dressed like this?"
Eric twitched his fingers a bit, he had completely forgotten about girls and their appreciation by others people love life.
"Nice dress Calleigh, you look really pretty."
"Thank you." The teen girl said blushing.
"Wait up a sec, you're on a date?!"
A table for two please Isabela.
"Oh baby brother, c'mon, you have a date and you don't tell me."
"You got a date Eric?"
They looked at the man, Eric smiling nervously.
"H-Hi dad."
"Hello son."
Calleigh blushed deeply.
"Hi sir."
"So, you're Eric's date hum?"
"Yes sir."
"How come I didn't know that?"
"Know what?"
"Hi Eric, what are you doing here, dressed like that!"
"Mum." Eric greeted looking down blushing.
"Oh, you're on a date,! You look so cute!"
"Mum please."
"Carmen, let them have their date alone."
"Sorry Sweet pie."
"Muuuum." Eric complained blushing even more as Calleigh chuckled lightly.
"C'mon, I got a table for two in the back room, you'll be save there."
"Thank you Isa."
"Any time sweet pie." she mocked.
"Shut up pumpkin."
"Sit down and order your food."
"o.k., geese."
Calleigh smiled blinking impressed when Eric pulled the chair for her.
"Wow, chivalry is not gone after all."
"Sure, so, what do you want to eat?"
"I'm not very hungry actually."
"What happened, last time I checked you ate like a wolf."
"You mean like you?"
"A bit less."
"A lot less."
"Fine, but why aren't you hungry?"
"I'm just not." Calleigh stated shrugging.
"All right then, what will you eat?"
"Hum… an empanada?"
"Cal, that's not dinner."
"And a beer."
"better, but not dinner yet." Eric chuckled.
"Fine, I'll have a burger with a beer please." She asked turning to isabela.
"All right, what about you sweet pie?"
"Same to me pumpkin."
"Shut up, I have costumers."
"Yeah, and I'm on a date. How come you didn't tell me mum and dad were coming?!"
"I didn't know, how come you didn't told me you had a date?"
"It's my life not yours."
"Yeah, great answer Eric."
"I wasn't sure if I could come, I was supposed to babysit, but the mum canceled in the last minute."
"Hum. Isabela said getting away."
"Thank you." Eric breathed.
"Anytime, but tell me, why haven't you tell them you had a date with me sweet pie?"
"Not you too."
"Don't worry, I won't call you sweet pie."
"Thank god."
"But you have to answer my question."
"Every time I go on a date they make a huge fuzz, I mean, it's not like I hate it, it's kind of o.k., because it means that they care, but it's a bit too much."
"I see."
"You never had that problem?"
"No."
Hum.
"So hum... why did you invited me to a romantic date with you?" Calleigh asked taking a sip of her beer.
"Because I'm in love with you."
She choked in her drink and he looked at her nervous doing and undoing the top button of his shirt.
"That's hum..."
"Sudden?"
"Yes, and you just said it, just like that."
"I know, I shouldn't have done it sorry."
"No, I'm glad you did."
"Really?"
"Humhm."
"May I ask why?"
"Then I won't feel so ad saying I love you too."
"No I guess you won't. Wait, what?!"
"Yeah."
"You love me?"
"Yeah."
"Wow, that's great."
"Yeah."
"Are you going to keep saying yeah?"
"Yeah, I mean, no. sorry."
He laughed softly at her blush.
"They paid the dinner (Eric did) and drove back home both blushed and nervous."
"So hum... see you tomorrow?"
"Yes."
She looked up surprised that his face was so close and locked her eyes on his, heads coming together to kiss which other with Calleigh's harms traveling to Eric's neck as they're tongs danced.
"They parted trying to catch their breaths."
"Wow."
"You can say it again."
"You're a god damn great kisser Cal."
"You're the best kisser I've known too."
"Thank you."
"Thank you too."
"So, hum… see you tomorrow?"
"Yes."
"I'll miss you." He admitted breathing into her hair.
"Me too, but we got to go."
"Yeah."
"Hey, think this way, we only have a pair of walls between us, and anything we need, it's just knock next door."
"Yeah. Good night Cal."
"Good night Eric."
Calleigh got inside the house not bothering to go much further than the door and slid to the floor laughing blushed.
"How did it go? Tell me everything!" Natalia attacked right away jumping to her side.
"Best night ever." She breathed simply.
"Tell me what happened!"
"No."
"C'mon I helped you get dressed!"
"No."
In the house next door Speedle had just started to stare at Eric who was also blushed but sitting in the couch looking to the sealing with a huge smile.
"Are you o.k.?" Speedle asked grabbing a beer from the fridge.
"I'm in heaven." He said dreamy.
"What in the world did you smoke dude?" Speed joked sitting next to him.
"Nothing."
"What happened?"
"I had a great night."
"Why are you blushed?"
"Cal loves me."
"What?"
"She loves me."
"You don't say."
"She told me."
"Wait, what!"
"Yep.
"Are you crazy?"
"No, we kissed."
"Okaaay."
"It was the best kiss ever, our lips pressed against which other, tongues tangled, her taste in my mouth."
"Wow, too much info!"
"You asked."
