Fists Don't Fly

CH.5

I got a phone call from Jeff asking me where I was. I walked towards his car.

"Where are you, I've been waiting?" He asked.

"I had to handle some buisness." I replied.

He touched my cheek and asked,"What happened?"

"Ow, nothing I'm okay."

"We're not leaving until you explain." Crossing his arms.

"Ugh fine me and Britta-"

"WHAT!?!",he said,"That bitch hurt you!?"

"No she just through me against the wall so I punched her nose."

"Okay I'm glad you stood up for yourself . Well I've been wanting to ask you if you wanted to go to a party with me?" He said nervously.

"Why do you want me to come? You're a big boy." I smiled.

"I don't know but do you want to come or not?"

"Sure when?"

"Tomorrow"(which was Saturday)

"Okay what time will you pick me up?"

"Around 1:00 p.m."he replied.

We arrived in my driveway. He got out and opened my door.

"So I'll be expecting you Jeff." I said with a smile.

                                     ~~~~~~~~
My mom walked in my room to wake me up.

"Hey there's a guy out there waiting for you." She told me.

I jumped up and ran downstairs. I opened the door and saw Jeff. He was wearing a polo tee, black jeans with a chain hanging down, and some Sperry's.

"You look nice." I said.

"And your still in your pajamas."

"Sorry I just woke up ima go get ready." I replied as I closed the door.

I brushed my teeth, combed my hair, and straighten it. I through on some skinny jeans, a pink blouse, and my white converse.

"Bye mom I'm going to a party with my friend."

"Okay Niki be safe I love you."

I jumped in the car. He looked Surprised.

"So are we gonna go or what?" I asked.

"Oh right."

                                    ~~~~~~~~
We pulled up in someone's driveway. I looked around. I noticed people outside smoking and drinking.

"Okay Jeff don't get drunk cause your my ride home."

He patted my back and said,"I won't."

We got out of the car and entered the house. There was a lot of empty beer bottles and cigarette buds. There was groups of people in corners talking and flirting. The DJ was playing music. There were many people on the dance floor. There was even a few fights going on as everyone crowded them.

"Hey Niki" a familiar voice called out.

I turned around and noticed Damon walking towards me.

"I didn't know you were the party type." Damon said.

"Well I'm only here because of Jeff."

"Oh, are you hungry or thirsty?"

"No I'm okay for now." I replied.

"Do you wanna dance?" He asked nervously.

"Sure why not."

He took my hand and walked me towards the dance floor. He put his arms around my waist so I wrapped my arms around his shoulders. I could tell his face was getting red of embarrassment. We swayed to the music. He twirled me around when someone else held onto me. Jeff smiled at me.

"Hey"

"You came out of nowhere.", I said with a chuckle.

"So who was that guy you were dancing with?"

"Why does that matter?"

"Just asking."

"Hes just a friend." I replied.

He muttered,"He better be."

"What was that Jeff? Are you jealous?" I smiled at him.

"W-what of course not."

I poked his cheek," Really? Then why are you turning red?"

"I uhh... I have to use the restroom" Jeff walked away. I laughed at the thought of him.

I was walking when I bumped into Katie.

"What thu" we said at the same time.

"What are you doing here Niki?"

"I could ask you the same thing."

"Well I've always been the party type." Katie said ,"So what are you doing here?"

"Jeff Wanted me to come so I just came."

"Speaking of Jeff where is he?"Katie asked.

"Hes in the restroom."
 
My phone rang.

Hello

Hey

You ready for me to drop you off?

Yeah I guess

Okay meet me at the car

Alright

Bye

Bye

"I got to go, bye Katie."

"Bye"

                                         ~~~~~~~~
"So how did you like the party?" Jeff asked.

When I turned to look at him, I noticed his beautiful green eyes already starring at me. I smiled and said, "It was cool."

       20 minutes past bye

"Well here we are." He nervously chuckled.

"Yeah well thanks for taking me to a party, I had a good time."

      He opened the door for me so I got out. As we walked up to my doorstep he put his arm around my shoulder. I could feel his  strength just bye his soft grip. I looked up at him and laughed.We finally got to my doorstep and just stood there awkwardly for a few seconds.I took a step closer to him and hugged him for what felt like a long time. He hugged me back then I finally let go. We didn't even speak to each we just smiled and parted our ways that night.

    I walked in my dark house. All the lights were turned off and my mom was asleep. I walked in the kitchen and noticed a note written by my mom:. Hey Niki I hope you had a great time at that party. Anyways I was to lazy to cook a homemade dinner but I went shopping and bout some frozen dinner. The dish with the roast is for you. Enjoy!

    I opened the freezer and grabbed my Box. I through it in the microwave and Pushed some buttons. My food was ready so I grabbed my food and sat at the table.

   After ten minutes of eating in silence I cleared my area and went in my room. I changed into my pajamas and layed down starring at the ceiling. Many thoughts were in my head, as I was thinking about the party and.. fine I'll admit, I was thinking 'bout Jeff.
