Jaxon

“Why don’t you take this young lady out for a nice dinner, Jaxon? She must be famished!”

Ariana stepped forward with a hand up. “Oh, no, it’s oka-”

“Nonsense!” My mother turned to me with her eyebrows narrowed in a chastising manner. “Son, please make sure you treat this young lady well. Do not let her go home hungry, okay?”

I nodded toward my mother, then turned to Ariana with a shrug. She still had her mouth open as if to protest. Is it that hard to have dinner with me? By the time I turned back to my mother, she had turned around and was already walking down the sidewalk with a waving Juno by her side.

“Well? Where should we go?” I whispered.

Her moss-green eyes shifted from side to side. “Um, it’s okay, Jaxon. You don’t have to take me out.”

I raised an eyebrow. “You heard my mother, right? She’s going to ask me all of the details when I get home.”

She raised an eyebrow of her own. “Really? Well, we wouldn’t want to disappoint Lana, right? I mean, come on, we're both hungry, and I promised I don’t bite.” she hung her head and muttered something I couldn’t hear.

Stand your ground? “Well, I’ll even let you choose the restaurant.” my voice sounded convincing, even to me. I cleared my throat. “I mean, I am a nice person if you just give me a chance.” I blinked my eyelashes.

A small smile built upon her lips, and for a while, I could only stare. In our recent interactions, I had been so caught up in my anger toward her sister that I had failed to realize how beautiful she was. Her thick reddish-brown hair fell in waves down to her shoulders, and she had bright, round green eyes that sparkled with mischief. A dusting of freckles claimed her nose and cheeks, and when she smiled, a tiny dimple appeared on her left cheek, right next to her voluptuous, pouty lips.

Her soft voice pulled me out of my reverie, and I instantly felt the heat rise on my neck. She had caught me staring and now watched me with a coy smile.

“Have you been to Mikey’s?” I asked with a thick voice.

She nodded. “Love it. Do you want just to take my car?”

I watched her as I walked behind her. She wore a black pencil skirt that hugged her curves, with a loose cotton shirt. On her legs was a bright pink pair of tights. She seemed like a fun teacher, both from her bubbly personality and her Dr. Suess-themed classroom. No wonder Juno wouldn’t stop talking about her at home.

We piled into the run-down bright blue Toyota Camry. She turned on the heater, activating the clip-on French Vanilla scented air freshener. I took a deep breath and was instantly calmer, or at least less nervous about having to make small talk in the cramped car.

“So, what have you been up to since…” she trailed off.

“High school?” I assisted.

She sent me a sidelong smile before turning her attention back to the road, then nodded.
