TODAY IS THE last day before Thanksgiving break. The boys and I were driving to school, and we were talking about a movie we seen last night.
My phone beeped, and I turned it on. It was a message from Brent. Yes, I gave him my number yesterday.
I have a question to ask you.
I frowned, and I texted back.
Okay. Shoot.
Well, I want to ask you in person. He texted back.
I smiled at his response.
Okay, the boys and I are almost at the school.
Alright, I'll be waiting by my car.
Okay.
I put my phone in my bag, and I played with the ends of my hair.
"Campbell, can you drive?" Gaberial asked me.
"I can, why?" I asked him.
"Elliot drives like an elderly man," Gavin chimed in.
Elliot rolled his eyes. "Well, at least I won't get pulled over. I'm doing the speed limit."
"But, if you want a little faster we would be at the school," Gaberial complained.
"Why are you so eager to get to school? You usually sleep on the way there," Nick asked.
"Nothing. Maybe I care about school now," he said, quickly.
"That's never going to happen," Gavin told his twin.
"Look, we're here," he said, and Elliot parked his truck.
"Okay, but this is not over," Elliot told his brother.
"Yep," Gaberial said, walking fast to the stairs.
"I'm going to find Anna," Elliot said before walking away.
"Hey, guys," Brent said, walking up to us.
"Hey, Brent," Nick said, and they high-fived each other.
"Ready for the game tonight?" Brent asked.
"Yeah. I'm going to go talk to coach, but I'll see you guys in homeroom," Nick said, walking away.
I looked at Brent with a shy smile.
"So, what's your question?" I asked him.
"I was wondering if you would like to wear my letterman jacket tonight? It's a tradition when we have an away game. The girls are going to be wearing theirs," he explained.
I was shocked. He was asking me to wear his letterman jacket.
"You don't have to if you-.." He started, but I cut him off.
