“You’re quite the boob girl, aren’t you?” I smirked. For the first time ever, I saw what she looked like when she blushed. Damn cute.

She tucked a strand of blonde hair behind my ear and stroked her thumb across my cheek before giving me a last kiss. “See you on Monday, beautiful.”

I kissed her back, not able to stop myself. “See you Monday.”

I stood outside, watching her until she had turned the corner of the street. With a spring in my step, I went to the front door and opened it. I was still on cloud nine when I practically jumped into the kitchen to drink something. 

“Tina.”

I jumped up. “Holy shit!” I screamed at who appeared to be my brother. “What the fuck are you doing in the kitchen in the middle of the night? You scared me!”

Dean grinned at me.

“Did you honestly think that I had it in me to wait until tomorrow morning to hear all about your date with Bette?”

I sighed. Of course I wanted to tell everything and let it out, but on the other hand, I wanted to be alone with these new, splendid feelings.

I yawned and thought that I would be the same if Dean had a date like this. Of course Bette is gorgeous and splendid and magnificent and wonderful and did I mention kind, warm, compassionate, cute or gorgeous? On top of that, he had waited for me. 

Halt.

“Why are you back so early?”

“Ed had also invited Stephenie, you know how she is so totally into him. It still amazes me that they haven’t had sex yet. Ed says it’s something with Stephenie not wanting sex before marriage. It really is so un-Kevin to even hang out with her. Anyway, I totally was the third wheel. So I decided to come back and wait for my sister to tell me all about her probably wonderful night.” He flashed me a grin that should probably have passed as charming.

I sat down and told him everything, from Eric onwards. I left the almost-stumbling out, it wasn’t exactly a lie, was it? His expression when I told him about Eric was just… well… priceless. He couldn’t stop laughing for a very long time. I didn’t describe the kiss we shared in the cinema very detailed, but I did tell him what led to the kiss. He remarked that it was the weirdest “and then we kissed” story he’d ever heard.

We talked until we could barely keep our eyes open and went to bed. I felt like the luckiest girl in the world. I had just got back from a date with the most beautiful girl, mind and body, I had had a long chat with my brother about it who is so easy to talk to, my parents accepted her because they knew her. I couldn’t wait to see her again.

I should have known it couldn’t continue this happy-sappy.
