11am.

This boy.

I’m meeting Brooks at the front gate of the school, mostly to avoid anybody seeing us. I had Uncle Matty and Jake drive me there, and now they are currently parked off to the side. They are going to follow us around all day and make sure we don’t get shot by terrorists. What a perfect first date...

But seriously, I’m not going to let stupid terrorists ruin my first date. I’m just going to try and forget the fact that two people are going to be watching my every move, and I am going to try to enjoy the day.

I’m only standing there for a minute when a black sports car pulls up in front of me. The windows are so dark I can’t see inside, but I know it’s Brooks when the car stops in front of me. He opens the driver’s side door and gets out.

And.

I’m.

So.

Nervous.

“Hi,” I say to him.

Yes, I am lame.

“Hey,” he says, smiling at me.

He’s so much more gorgeous in person... so much better looking than I even remember.

“You look really beautiful,” he says.

“Thanks,” I say, looking down at my feet. Because I’m too scared to look him in the eyes right now.

“You ready to go?” he asks.

I nod, looking up again.

Uh, his eyes are so blue.

Then Brooks does something completely unexpected. He walks to the passenger side door of his car and he opens the door for me.

I’ve never had a guy open the door for me. Never. Not once. Unless you count limo drivers, which I don’t, because they’re getting paid to open your door. But, I’m serious. I don’t even think Charlie, Dad or Rick has ever opened the door for me.

I get into the car and he shuts the door once I’m in. I rest my fingers over my racing heart for a second and take a breath.

This boy.

He opens his door and gets inside. He puts on his seatbelt, then looks at me and smiles before we take off.

“You really are nervous,” Brooks says, as we pull onto the main road.

I bite my lip, not knowing what to say.

“I think it’s cute that you’re nervous,” he says.

His words make me smile. “It’s not your fault. I mean, I would be nervous no matter what, but my roommate made me even more nervous this morning.”

“How?”

Ah, I didn’t want to tell him that.

I shouldn’t have said anything.

“She was talking about how I shouldn’t wear lip gloss because nobody likes kissing with lip gloss on, and I hadn’t even thought about kissing,” I say. “I mean, I’ve never kissed a guy before. So, now I’m nervous.”

He looks from the road to me. “You’ve never been kissed?”

“Nope.”

“Guys in California are idiots,” he says.

I shrug. “Even if they were interested, I’m pretty sure Charlie would’ve run them off.”

“Is it going to be hard to get your brother’s approval?” he asks.

“Yeah, but I think he will like you,” I say.

“I hope so.”

Me, too.

“Why didn’t he come to school with you?” Brooks asks.

“He’s in California still. With his dad,” I answer.
