Forever

Chapter IX

Hazel’s Point of View

 I have a date with a special someone tonight. No, it’s not Roc. His name is Ke’Shawn. He is in my grade and we have 3 out of 5 classes together a day. He asked me out yesterday and I said yes. I looked at myself into the mirror. I was wearing sky blue Topshop Basic Crop tee, blue high waisted denim cuffed shorts, with Emerald Nike Air Griffey Max 1.  My hair was bone straight. I grabbed my iPhone and walked downstairs. My mom was in the kitchen, feeding Adrian.

 ‘’Hey mama.’’ I said sitting down at the island.

 ‘’Hey hija, where is your date?’’ She asked.

 ‘’On his way, how is Adrian?’’ I asked.

 ‘’He’s good, he is about fall asleep now. I’ll be back.’’ She said walking out of the kitchen. The doorbell rang. I got up and ran to the door. I brushed my outfit and ran my fingers thru my hair. I opened the door and looked up.

 ‘’Hello beautiful, these are for you.’’ He said handing me a bouquet of light pink roses. I sniffed them. I sat them down on the end table near the door. I looked at his outfit. He was wearing a grey Witchery cotton pocket v-neck tee shirt, black Cheap Monday Tight Od jeans with Toro Bravo Air Jordan IV.

 ‘’Hi Ke’Shawn.’’ I said, smiling. My mom walked downstairs and looked over at me.

 ‘’Oh, hi I’m Hazel’s mom, London.’’ She said, smiling.

 ‘’I’m Ke’Shawn. It’s a pleasure to meet you ma’am.’’ He said.

 ‘’Mom we have to get going. Bye.’’ I said taking Ke’Shawn’s hand and walked out of the house. I looked up at him and smiled. Ke’Shawn is around 6’1 and I’m 5’2. We stopped at his red Ferrari Enzo. He opened the passenger door and I got in. He closed it and jogged to the driver side. He got in and put the key into the ignition and pulled off.

 ‘’Where are we going?’’ I asked.

 ‘’I was thinking that movies.’’ He said. I nodded my head and looked out of the window. I haven’t talked to Chresanto all day. It’s weird because he would usually text me. The radio was playing Body Party by Ciara. Ke’Shawn pulled up to movie theater. We got out of the car and walked to the building, holding hands.

 ‘’What do you want to see?’’ He asked.

 ‘’The Conjuring.’’ I said. He ordered our tickets and we walked inside. We stood in line for the food. He looked down and smiled at me. It got up to us and Ke’Shawn ordered us popcorn, Dr. Pepper, and a box of Skittles. We walked away and I give them our tickets. We walked down to room and opened the door. We walked down to the top and sat down. It wasn’t really full. It was Ke’Shawn and I and some other teenagers.

 The movie started and Ke’Shawn wrapped his arm around me. I smiled and placed my head on his shoulder. I ate some of the popcorn. When a scary part came on, I would always jump.

 ‘’Hazel, don’t be scared I’m right here.’’ Ke’Shawn said. I let out air and put my head back on his shoulder. After a while, I was bored out of my mind. The movie was almost over with and I was ready to text Prince, Roc, or Mariee.

 ‘’Ke’Shawn, I’ll be right back. I have to go to the ladies room.’’ I said standing up. I walked down the steps, out of the room. I walked to the bathroom and looked into the mirror. I grabbed my phone and looked at the time 10:46. I washed my hair and looked into the mirror. I looked cute as ever. I walked out of the bathroom and back to the room. I walked up the steps ands at back down.

 ‘’Hazel, we should get going.’’ He said. I nodded and stood back up. He grabbed out trash and we walked down the steps, out of the room. He threw away our trash and we walked out of the theater. We walked back out to his car. I got in and closed the door behind myself. He got in and put the key into the ignition and pulled off. I got out my phone and unlocked it. I had no new messages. I miss getting those text messages from Chresanto. Ke’Shawn pulled up my house. He took the ignition and we got out. We walked up to the front door. We turned to look at each other.

 ‘’I had a great time.’’ I said, smiling.

 ‘’I did too, maybe we could do this again.’’ He said.

 ‘’For sure, thanks for getting me out of the house.’’ I said.

 ‘’You welcome, text me.’’ He said. I nodded and smiled. He leaned down and kissed me. I placed one arm around his neck. He pulled me closer, wrapping his arm around my waist. I pulled away, smiling.

 ‘’Damn, goodnight.’’ I said.

 ‘’Goodnight, beautiful.’’ He said leaning down and pecking my lips. I put my key into the door and opened it. I walked inside and closed the door behind me silently. I walked upstairs into my bedroom. I stripped out of my clothes and into a black seamless cami with grey Fox Fast lane sweatpants. I put my hair into a messy bun. I laid down on my bed and grabbed my phone.  

I  unlocked my phone and went to Instagram. I took a picture and posted it. My caption was I be that pretty mofo 💋👌✨.  I scrolled down my Instagram profile and seen Chresanto. I double tapped then exited out of the app. I went to Twitter and tweeted Be Yourself Always 😄😄. I exited out of Twitter and went to Message. I sent Prince, Mariee, and Chresanto something.

Me: Goodnight, love ju guys😘💤💤🌃

I locked my phone and put it on the docking station. I got under my white sheets and grabbed my TV remote. I turned to Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. I closed my eyes and drifted off to sleep.
