Kate
I woke up to my phone ringing. I looked at the time and noticed that it was later
than I’d expected.
“Hello, sleepy head,” Christian said walking into my room.
“Shut up,” I said chucking a pillow at him.
“Hey, don’t start that,” he told me sternly. I couldn’t help but laugh at his facial
expression.
“What are you doing,” I asked when I finally calmed down.
“Nothing much,” Christian answered. “Hey, Nate’s wondering if we wanna hang
out with them today.”
“Is Brittney feeling better,” I asked.
“Well, Nate’s taking her to the doctor and he’s hoping that they’ll be able to give
her something to make her feel better.”
“Oh, okay,” I said and then I crawled out of bed and walked over to him. I
wrapped my arms around his neck and gave him a kiss.
“Wow,” Christian said and then he gave me another kiss.
“Oh, I love it when you kiss me,” I laughed.
“You know what,” Christian said.
“What,” I asked looking up to see his face.
“We should go out tonight,” he said with a smile playing on his lips. “I mean, we
haven’t really had that much alone time lately.”
“I agree,” I said with my own smile.
“So it’s a date,” Christian asked.
“It’s a date, my dear Romeo,” I said. Christian stared at me for a moment then we
both started laughing.
“Oh, my sweet Juliet,” Christian laughed.
“You two are absolutely insane,” my mom said from my bedroom doorway. The
sound of her voice made me jump.
“What are you doing,” I asked her.
“Well, today is Saturday and there’s usually movies on Lifetime so I wanted to
know if you two would like to join me,” my mom said.
“Sure, we’ll be down in a few minutes,” I told her before she left to go
downstairs.
“Why the heck did you agree to that,” Christian asked me.
“I don’t know the movies are almost always suspense movies and it sounds fun,” I
said. “Plus, I have really spent much time with my mom since we got back so I
decided that it would be fun to watch a couple of movies with her. Don’t worry,
though, we are so totally still going on our date.” I stood up on my tippy toes and
kissed him, then I grabbed his hand and dragged him downstairs.
