Chap. 2 Reconcilation!
"I'm so tired, lets rest!'Sara said as she walked over to the couch.
"Me to!"Nick sighed.
"So how's the upstairs coming?"Sara asked as Aj and I walked into the room.
"It's going pretty well"he said as he went to the chair and sat down.
"Yeah, well do you guys want to come with Nick and I out to eat later?"
"No, that's ok I think ill just stay here!"I said
"Oh come on Trisha you have to get out some time!"Sara pleaded
"I do get out! I just don't feel like going any where tonight"
"Oh yeah what? the last time you actually got out was about a year ago!"She argued
I shot her a nasty look and got up from my seat.
"You can take AJ!!"she added.
"Sara just shut up ok! I don't want to go, and that's that!"
A while later, Sara and Nick left and I was all alone.It was qite boring sitting by myself. I went up stairs and into my room. As I walked over to my dresser to pick up my book I noticed a piece of paper. I unfolded it and read... "AJ's # 555 6009..call me if you get bored!" "That's soo cute" I thought as I walked over to my bed. Just as I was going to pick up the phone it rang.
"Hello" I said half startled
"Hey, Trish It's me AJ"
"Oh hey I was just about to call you"
"Yeah, so what are you doing?"
'Umm nothing really, you?"
"Just sitting here being bored,..hey I have an idea why don't I come over there and we can go to the movie's or sumthin."
"Uhh... I don't know Alex, I hardly even know you"
"Well how are you ever going to get to know me if you say no?"
"......Ugh I guess."
"So is that a yes?"
"Yeah, sure"
"Ok well ill look for a movie and you can get ready ill come over in a little while."
"Ok!"
I soon hung up the phone and ran straight to the shower. A couple of minutes later I got out and got dressed into some black tight jeans and a white tank, I rapped a sweater on my shoulders for the casual look and curled my hair along with putting on some make up. "Why am I getting so stressed about this, its not even a date and I don't even like him." I thought as I took one last look in the mirror before heading down stairs.I walked into the kitchen, just as I was about to pour some juice the door bell rang.
"Hey"I said as I opened the door
"Hey babe you look beautiful" he said as he looked me over.I blushed and lead him into the kitchen.
"You want any thing to drink?"I said trying to make small talk
"Naww that's ok! we gotta leave soon!" he replied
"Oh when's it start?"
"In a half an hour and it will takes us a good 10 minutes to get there"
"Oh ok!" I said as I finished my juice grabbed my purse and walked out side.We got in the car and soon sped off.
"Do you mind if I turn on the radio?"I asked
"No not at all knock ur self out!" he replied
I flipped through the channels until I found a catchy song and left it. I started to sing along to the words.." I want it that way tell me why aint nothin but a heart ace..........."
"So you are firmilar with our music.."
"No, what are you talking about? isn't this 98 degrees?"
"No!!!!!" just then the radio said,
"That's another one by the Backstreet boys keep you requests coming."
"Oh!"
We soon pulled into the theater and parked.We purchased are tickets and went to stand in line for the concession stand.
"So what do you want?"Aj asked
"Umm a drinks good, Doctor Pepper"
"Ok"
"Thanks"I replied. Just as I turned around a short brown haired girl walked up to me.
"Trisha??"She asked
"Yeah,Caitlin?"
"Oh my god girl,where have you been?"She asked excitedly.
"Well a lot has happened since the last time you saw me."
"I know, I heard, god are you ok?"she asked sympathetically.
"Yeah, it's good, what's it's it been? a year."
"Yeah, I still can't believe the last time I saw you was at that party!!"
"Yeah really!"I said not wanting to think back to that night.
"So what's been going on in your life" I asked trying to change the subject.
"Well...............Oh yeah!!!!!! I got engaged!"she said smiling wickedly.
"Oh my gosh!!! when,to who?"
"I met him at that party, we got engaged a month ago"
"I can't believe out of all our friends you are the first to be hitched, and I was so sure you would be the last!"
"Yeah I know I can barely believe it myself, hold on ill go get him"she replied and walked off.
"So who's that?"AJ asked handing me my drink.
"Oh, just one of my old friends form South Beach."
"Oh yeah?"
"Ok Trisha this is Mark, Mark this is Trisha"Caitlin said as she came back.
After a few minutes AJ broke in.
"So babe aren't you going to introduce me to your friends?"he asked putting his arm around me.
"Oh how cute, don't they look so perfect together?"Caitlin commented to Mark
"Uh ha.....yeah whatever!"he replied watching a hot chick pass in his direction.
"Yeah Caitlin,Alex,Alex,Caitlin"I said as I pushed AJs arm off of me."Well I'll see you later cuz IM sure are movie has already started by now"
"Ok, well what's your # and ill call ya!!! and we can go clubben or something!"
"Umm...... well we just moved in so I don't really know it"
"555-6009"AJ interrupted.
"Ok thanks"Caitlin replied as she gave me a hug and walked over in the opposite direction along with Mark.
"So you go to a lot of parties?"
"DID!!"
"Why did?"
"I'm sorry but I don't feel like talking about it!"
"Don't be, what's there to be sorry for!"
"Thanks for understanding, not many people do!"I said as he pulled into my drive.He quickly got out and went to my door to open it for me.
"Thanks" I said smiling.
"That's what I'm here for!!!"he said as he walked me to my door.
"Thanks for the great time!"Aj said as he inched closer.
"Your welcome I guess!"I said as I slowly moved backwards.
AJ slowly leaned into kiss me as I opened the door and and stepped inside.I quickly closed the door, my heart was racing.I looked through the peep hole hoping he left, Nope he didn't he was standing there with the most shocked expression on his face I ever thought possible.I turned around not wanting to see him standing there and I slowly slipped to the ground."What the hell did I just do? god how could I let myself look so stupid!" I thought as a tear slowly fell from my cheek.Aj walked home wondering what he did wrong he just couldn't figure out where he went wrong.
"Did I move to fast?"he asked himself over and over again.
