Married in High
School? -
Chapter Ten
From: Collin
Are you almost ready?
I smiled at my phone, and looked back up at the mirror. I twisted a
curl a little bit, and took a makeup sponge and wiped under my eyes
for any missing makeup. Picking my phone up again, I quickly texted
him back telling him I was ready. A few months after we started
dating, Collin started asking me before he left if I was ready so
he didn't show up and I still needed 20 more minutes. Then he
had to have awkward conversations with my parents, and it was this
whole big thing. This way it was much easier, and it always put a
smile on my face.
I grabbed my purse off me bed, looked into the mirror and smiled,
then shut off the light and walked downstairs to see my parents in
the kitchen, their heads close together in deep discussion.
"Hello," I said warmly, looking at the two of them.
"Hello sweetheart," my mom said, standing straight and
bringing the coffee mug she had in her hands to her lips.
"What are you up to tonight?"
"Collin's taking me out to dinner," I said, looking
at my nails and then back up at her. "He should be here in a
few minutes." I had gotten my light brunette hair from her,
but hers had grown darker over the years to cover her grays. My
hazel eyes however, I had recieved from my father.
"We should have him over for dinner again soon," my dad
said, which took me by surprise. He wasn't one to plan events,
or really offer to spend the evening with my boyfriend. He
doesn't really dislike Collin, but as the boyfriend of his only
daughter, you can see why he's not too interested.
"That sounds lovely," my mom said, picking up her phone
and looking through her calendar. "I have a school board
meeting Friday afternoon, about that horrid marriage project,"
her nose wrinkled in disgust. "But we can do something
saturday night. Let him know, okay?"
I nodded, seeing Collin's car lights pull into the driveway.
"He's here, I'll be back later."
"12 am is curfew!" My mother called after me, and I
waved, knowing what time I was supposed to be home. Collin and I
would be done long before than, but I always tested the limits,
showing up at 11:58, 11:59, etc. Collin was standing at the hood of
his car when I shut the front door.
"Well don't you look gorgeous," he said, taking my
hand and spinning me around. I giggled as the skirt of my dress
billowed out.
"Why thank you," I smiled, leaning in for a kiss.
"You look handsome as well," I said, pressing down the
colar of his polo shirt. He took my hand and lead me to my side of
the car, opening and closing the door for me. "You're so
cute," I laughed, when he got into the car.
"What?" He smiled, looking at me before looking behind
the car as he backed up.
"Opening the door for me," I laughed as he turned a
little pink.
"You're my girlfriend, and that's what I'm going
to do," he said, sticking his tongue out at me.
"That's fine," I laughed. "Where are we
going?"
"Our favorite resteraunt."
"Which is...?"
"You're telling me you don't know what our favorite
resteraunt it? I'm insulted," he said, teasing me.
"I really have no idea," I laughed.
"We're going to Sun-n-Surf."
"Awww!" I said, looking at him. "We're going to
the place where we first went on a date! That's so
awesome!"
He laughed at me, shaking his head. "I wasn't expecting
quite a big response, but that's okay," he laughed
again.
"Well it doesn't matter where we go, as long as I'm
with you," I smiled, leaning over to kiss him on the
cheek.
