In The Light (Hailey)

Start from the beginning
                                    

"Shit, you're up." She paused when she noticed the two of us.

"Yeah." I moved to kneel on the couch. "Nice shirt."

"Ten bucks you're wearing one of Mason's." Faith rolled her eyes and went to the kitchen.

"Can I pay next week after I get paid?" I asked her. "And please tell me you two were safe. Mason and I are too young to have a niece or nephew."

"Mason and you are..?" Faith stared at me before looking at Mason then back to me. "Please tell me you used protection."

"No sex in high school for me!" I threw my hands up and got off the couch. "Why doesn't anyone understand I don't want to have sex in high school?"

"Because you wear Mason's clothes all the time." Faith shook her head and started making coffee.

"How long have you and Walt been together?" Mason asked her.

"I'll be right back." I whispered to him before heading back to our room to change.

"Johnny, huh?" I asked Hannah when she climbed into the backseat.

"We're just friends." She said as she buckled in, and Mason backed out of the driveway. "Hey, Hail."

"What?" I checked a text from Walt.

"Why did you have condoms last night?" My fingers stilled over the Send button before hitting it.

"For Carter." I clicked my phone off and tossed it onto my bag at my feet. "Him and Kev didn't have any."

"So they weren't for us?" Mason gasped dramatically. "I'm offended."

"No sex in high school." Hannah and I said in unison.

"You do listen to me!" I smiled widely and turned around to face my sister who had her eyes closed.

"I do listen to you." She yawned and curled up on the seat. "How did your test go?"

"Good, I missed like two or three things overall." I turned back in my seat. "I wasn't as nervous about the driving as I thought I was gonna be."

"That's good." She sounded like she was about to doze off. "Wake me up when we get there."

"Will do." Mason glanced in the rearview before looking back at the road. "Hey, Hails. Do you wanna drive?"

"No." I told him. "I'm not driving on the freeway and downtown moments after getting my permit."

"It'll be fun." He smiled. "It's a great second date."

"We haven't had a first date, Mase." I shook my head and changed the radio station.

"The DMV was our first date." He stopped at a Stop sign.

"I was getting my permit." I grabbed my hairbrush out of my bag and started brushing my hair. "That doesn't count."

"It was the two of us-"

"There were other people, and you had to stay in the lobby." I protested.

"-without any of our friends or family." He continued talking and driving. "And it was romantic."

"We were at the DMV, so I could get my driving permit." I winced when I hit a knot. "There's nothing romantic in that."

"That's your opinion." He turned onto the exit for the freeway.

"If you find going to the DMV as a romantic date, then I don't want to go on dates with you." I told him.

"How are we supposed to date if I can't take you out on dates?" He asked.

"You're dating!" Hannah yelled from the backseat causing Mason to swerve a little.

"What the fuck, Han?" Mason corrected himself quickly. "You can't just scream in a moving car."

"I almost poked my eye out." I dropped my brush onto my lap.

"Sorry, but when did you two finally start dating?" Hannah asked us.

"Last night during Prom." Mason answered her.

"When during Prom?" Hannah continued to question us.

"Like ten or so minutes in." I answered her. "I was gonna tell you, but Prom was crazy and I'm just now seeing you today."

"You could've sent me a text." She said.

"When?" I resumed brushing my hair. "During Prom or when you were screwing Justin?"

"Touché." She stopped asking questions for now.

"Hails, it's our song!" Mason laughed and turned the volume, allowing Paris by whoever sang this to fill the car.

"Oh my god, no." I went to change the station but got my hand smacked.

"Don't you dare." Mason warned me.

"Mase, why don't you sing?" Hannah suggested. "Hailey is always going on about how much she loves it when you sing."

"You're a terrible sister!" I buried my face in my hands as Mason started singing off key.

"We were staying in Paris." He sang. "To get away from your parents."

"Mase, stop." I begged him. "Please."

"And I thought." He grabbed my left hand in his right. "Wow, if I could take this in a shot right now I don't think that we could work this out."

"Why?" Hannah laughed.

"Because the DMV isn't date worthy." I said.
