"You're completely positive that your dad is fine with this?" Blake asks gesturing between us.

"Yes he told me so right before I came here now come on," I say dragging him towards my house. I've stayed at Blake's house since my dad told me we could date. It's now 3:30 and I know my dad will be home any minute.

"What if he still hates me?" He asks.

"He can get over it," I say and start running.

"Claire wait up!" Blake yells to me and I giggle and slowdown.

"Ok slow poke," I say once he's next to me then jump on his back.

"Really?" He asks looking up at me.

"Yep now walk," I say and pat his head.

"You probably don't want me to mention this but what's up with you and Robbie?" He asks.

"My brothers and his all had lunch together that's it. Plus I think he's more K's type," I say.

"Isn't she with Oliver?" Blake asks.

"I don't know after the party they haven't talked much," I say.

"Speaking of parties Friday is a Christmas party at my place. Wanna come?" He asks.

"If you're hosting it then I almost am forced to go," I say.

"Why is that," he says.

"So girls don't come crawling all over you," I say and smirk.

"But what about the guys crawling over you," he says.

"You've got to fight them off," I say.

"I think I can do that," He says and we arrive at my house. I open the door and hear my brothers messing around. Since my mom is pregnant she only has to work half days so she is watching them.

"Your house is hectic," he whispers.

"Life with 4 brothers," I say.

"Claire look!" Jackson yells showing me his shoes.

"Those are awesome," I say. Mom must have bought the boys new shoes.

"Hey Blake," the twins says.

"Hey," Blake says.

"Dad should be home soon," mom says heading towards the kitchen.

"Hey Mrs. Eaton," Blake says.

"You can call me six or Tris. Mrs. Eaton makes me sound old. I'm only 27," she says.

"Ok Mrs. E," he says.

"That's a good one," she says and leaves.

"Are you taking us to the arcade again?" Keiynan asks.

"No in here to hang out with Claire," Blake says.

"Eww," Keiynan says and leaves.

"They discovered their love H," Colin says.

"Took them long enough," Henry says.

"Why do they keep doing that?" I ask Blake.

"Young boys have active imaginations," Blake says.

"You thought about love too," I say looking Down at him.

"No, all boys usually have something different they think about," he says.

"What was yours?" I ask.

"I don't think you'd like to know," Blake says grinning.

"Please," I beg and pout.

"Ok fine. Mostly about you and how pretty you look how the other guys would look at you stuff like that," he says and begins walking up the stairs.
