Endless Love

7 : First Date Jitters

I looked over at her and she was still staring at Xavier while he was looking at his phone. "Yeah, sure whatever."

I grabbed her arm and started dragging her away. Before she could start drooling.

"Come on Desirée we have to stay focused."

"Yeah right sorry my bad. Just got a little carried away."

"Do you think you made the team?"

"Honestly I don't know. I was so nervous I probably messed up the entire routine."

"I'm sure you did fine. Me on the other hand I probably looked like an abomination out there."

We walked out to the bulletin board and looked at the paper that said cheer squad results.

"Can you look for me?," Desirée said, "I'm so scared."

"Let's see...," I said looking at the list, "oh my gosh you made it!!"

"Yes!" she said excitedly, "I mean yeah I knew I would."

I scanned the list up and down looking for my name and you won't believe it.

I made the team.

"What?" I asked in a confused tone, "How?"

"You didn't make the team?," she said frustrated, "because I'll go down there an-"

"I made the team," I said interrupting her rambling.

"Wait you made the team?"

"Yeah, I made the team. That sounds so weird when I think about it."

"It thought you said you did bad."

"I did. It was probably one of the worst things I've ever done."

"Then how'd you make the team?"

"I honestly don't know."

"It was probably Brooke. If she tries to do anything to you-"

"Has anyone ever told you that violence is not the answer?"

"Yeah, but I just ignored them most of the time."

"Come on, so you can go tell Xavier that he'll have someone cheering for him on Fridays."

Desiree and I made it back to my house after she went home and practically got her whole closet.

I know I said I'd help her, but she has a whole mall here right now.

"How do you pick out your clothes in the morning?" I asked Desirée as we were standing in my room staring at all her clothes.

"I honestly don't know I didn't think I had this many clothes."

"Well...Xavier will be here in 3 hours let's get to work."

After sorting through her clothes for almost two hours we finally settled on something.

It was a black short-sleeved cropped shirt, with some black cargo pants, along with some black platform converses.

I mean you can go wrong with all black, can you?

She took a shower, put on her outfit, and did her hair. She put on some mascara then some lip liner and then lipgloss.

She doesn't like makeup so she never wears it and honestly, she doesn't need it. She looks amazing without it.

The doorbell rang and I ran downstairs to get it. I opened the door and Xavier was standing there. Along with guess who.

Lucas.

"Wait you brought Lucas?" I asked Xavier, inviting them both in.

"Yeah, why is that a problem?"

"No not at all."

"She knows she can't resist me that's why she doesn't want me here," Lucas said with a smirk on his face.

I rolled my eyes and yelled. "Desirée! Xavier's here!"

She came down the stairs. Looking amazing might I add and stopped at the bottom step.

"How do I look?" Desirée asked.

"Te ves hermosa," Xavier said staring at Desirée.

I mean this man can't take his eyes off her.

"I have no idea what you just said, but thank you."

"I said you look great." He cleared his throat and looked at his phone to see the time. "Are you ready to go?"

"Yeah, I'm ready." She turned and looked at me then hugged me. "Thank you."

"Yeah, no problem."

They walked out the door and were all set to go on their little adventure. Or first date whatever you want to call it.

They grow up so fast.

"So I guess it's just you and me now," Lucas said smiling.

"Yeah, I guess it is."

This should be fun.
