A couple weeks had gone by and I didn’t hear a peep from her. I was anxiously awaiting a call from her about meeting my father and our date. I was starting to doubt it was ever going to happen. So I threw myself into my studies, I had finals coming up on Monday. I was deep into my physics notes when my phone vibrated. I checked it and my heart started racing.

*How does next Friday night sound?*

I stared at my phone. I got this silly stupid smile on my face as I stared at the message. My heart was beating so fast as I typed the reply.

*Sounds great! That’s the last day of school :)*

I waited for the reply. The anticipation was killing me. It seemed like it took her forever to reply but it had only been a minute.

*Of course, if we went out beforehand, you’d be too distracted to pass your exams. I know you’re in the running for valedictorian and we wouldn’t want you distracted would we?*

Oh wow, she is one cocky woman. But here I am, in the middle of studying, being distracted by her.

*Cocky Porter, but how do you know you’d distract me?*

A smirk swept across my face. I put my phone down and flipped through the pages in my book, I got a reply almost instantly.

*Confidence and cockiness are two different things Miss. Kennard. But right now, I am confident you are lying across your bed, with a book. Not just a any book however, but your advanced physics textbook.*

I sat up stunned. For a whole second I thought she was spying on me. My heart skipped a beat as my phone vibrated again.

*Don’t be silly, I’m not spying on you, Shane told me you were studying for your physics exam :P*

I laughed out loud and shook my head. What was I thinking, she was outside my window? I paused for a second and went to my window. No one. I laughed again.

*I seriously just laughed out loud. My folks probably think I’m crazy.*

*Speaking of your parents, I’ll be by at 6:30pm to meet them. We have reservations at 7.*

Reservations? Wow. She got us reservations. This is the real deal, she’s taking me to a fancy restaurant. My first real date. Oh God, I don’t have anything to wear.
