Going Back To My Old Life - Me :) (open ebook txt) 📗

just got here and I'm am still catching up with my old friends and even have some new ones. We can't leave yet!” I yelled in anger and annoyance.

“Honey, you didn't let your father finish.” my mom said.

“The offer is not in another state this time,” my dad said with a smile on his face. Oh god, what if it's in another freakin' country! “Oh sweetie! We're staying in Miami! They offered me a job that would keep us in Miami for a few years. We are staying here until you graduate!” my dad said full of happiness and delight. I ran up to my dad and gave him a big hug and a big kiss on the cheek to my mom. I yelled thank you to both of them as I ran upstairs to tell Katie the news.

“Honey! You didn't finish eating!” my mom yelled because I was already halfway up the stairs.

“Not hungry anymore! Gotta call Katie!” I yelled back as I got into my room and closed the door behind me. I got out my phone and called Katie, the news were way too big to be told by a text.

 

“Hey gurl! Wassup! You callin' me twice in one night is pretty rare.” Katie said.

“Omg! My parents just told me the best news ever!” I yelled in excitement.

“What is it!? Tell me, tell me, tell me!” Katie yelled back.

“I'm staying in Miami until we graduate!” I yelled so loud that my parents could probably hear me from downstairs.

“Oh my freakin' god! Are you serious!?” Katie yelled back as loud as I did.

“Hell yeah, bitch!” I yelled.

 

Then after that, Katie and I shrieked, squealed, and laughed for about an hour talking about things we had to do together and other things. By the time we hung up, it was passed midnight. I went to my bathroom and got ready for bed. I went downstairs to check if my parents were still awake, they were. I saw them sitting in the living room watching a movie.

“Honey, shouldn't you be in bed?” my mom asked concerned.

“Yeah, I was talking to Katie.” I said.

“Well then go to bed, sweetie. You have school tomorrow.” my dad said.

“I know I just came down to tell you guys that I love you.” I said and then gave my dad a hug and told him that I love him and gave my mom a kiss on the cheek and told her that I loved her.

“I love you, too sweetie/honey. Good night.” they both said.

“Good night.” I said back and then went up to my room and went to sleep.

Chapter 5: It Finally Happened

 

I was waiting outside of my house for Jordan. Today was Saturday and it was 12:27pm, we had plans to meet up at 12:30. While I was waiting, I thought about where he might take me, and what we would do, what we would talk about, if this would end up as our first date. We didn't say that this was a date, it was 'catching-up'. We pretty much already caught up on everything. I have been hanging out a lot with Jordan and Jake. Jordan and I had a special spark, it's probably because we have a history or something like that. But Jake and I, have no history but we also have a spark, we kind of have a sexual spark if you know what I mean. But don't get me wrong, we haven't had sex. I am actually a virgin, completely and totally a virgin. Jake on the other hand, has probably had sex with a lot of girls, he seems like the player type to me. But we haven't done anything which is surprising for a guy like him. Even a few girls at school ask me if Jake and I had 'done it' and I tell them that we haven't and they seem surprised. Oh, and the reason that I am a virgin is because of all the moving, I have never gotten close enough to a guy to go that far with him. But I may have the chance now. It could be Jake, or Jordan, or another guy that I haven't even met. Then Jordan came up the driveway.

“Hey!” he said as he got out of his car.

“Hey!” I said back.

“So, you ready?” Jordan asked.

“Yup!” I said so Jordan opened the door of the passenger's seat for me and I got in. He closed the door and then went around to the driver's seat.

“So, where to?” he asked.

“Uh, I don't know. How about that place we used to go all the time when we were kids. What was it called? Uh, Barney's, no, uh, oh yeah! Benny's Burgers!” I said.

“I remember that place! To Benny's we go!” Jordan yelled as he started the car.

“So, where are you taking me afterwards?” I asked.

“Sorry, Emma. It's a secret.” he whispered.

“Nooo! Tell meee!” I begged.

“Nope, you'll just have to wait.” he said with a smile on his face.

“Meanie.” I mumbled.

“Awww... Just like old times.” Jordan said and I hit him in the arm. It probably didn't hurt him at all. In fact, I think it hurt me more than it hurt him. He had really damn, big muscles. “Did little Emma hurt herself trying to hurt me?” Jordan said in a voice that someone would use when talking to a baby.

“No, shut up.” I said with a pouty face. I looked out the window and went deep into thought. For some reason I started thinking about Jake when I really shouldn't because I was currently with Jordan. I have actually gotten to know Jake in the past few days. We talked a lot during class and we actually had a lot in common. For example, we both like the same bands, hate history class, are good in Math, prefer dogs over cats, have the same favorite ice cream flavor.

“We're here.” Jordan said while parking into the parking lot of Benny's Burgers.

“Damn, this place looks exactly the same.” I said while getting out of the car. Jordan came around the car and closed the door for me.

“Imagine how it looks on the inside.” he said as we walked towards the small, old-styled American restaurant.

“Whoa,” we both said as we walked in. “Exactly the same.” we said at the same time again.

“Hello, table for two?” an old guy asked. “Emma Smith and Jordan Heal?” The old guy asked.

“Benny?” Jordan asked. Oh my god, that was Benny, he looks a lot older now, with white hair and all.

“Oh! It's so good to see you.” Benny said.

“Yeah, it's been a while.” I said.

“So, table for two or are the others coming?” Benny asked.

“Nope, just two.” Jordan said and then Benny led us to our table. He sat us down at the table that wee would always sit at when we were kids.

“So, what brought you kids back here to old Benny's?” Benny asked.

“Well, I just moved back and we wanted some of Benny's famous burgers for old times sake. We might come often since I'm back and staying.” I said with a smile.

“Well, I hope so, if we don't get more customers soon, I might have to close down the place.” Benny said. “Well, would you like a menu or your usual?” Benny asked.

“I'll have my usual, plus a Coke.” Jordan said.

“I'll have my usual as well, with a Sprite, please.” I said.

“Okay, I'll be right back with your orders.” Benny said and then left.

“I can't believe this place might close down.” I said to Jordan.

“Yeah, I love this place. It's like a part of our childhood. I wish there was something we could do.” Jordan said.

“I don't know. Maybe there is.” I said.

“What?” Jordan asked.

“Doesn't the football team go out for pizza after ever game win or lose?” I asked.

“Yeah, why?” Jordan asked not understanding where I was going with this.

“What if you guys came here instead? It would gain the place a lot of money, wouldn't it? Burgers are just about as good as pizza, right?” I said.

“I guess. I'll see with the guys and maybe it'll would work out.” Jordan said then a waitress with black curly hair tied up into a pony tail came to our table with our drinks.

“Coca-cola?” she asked and then put it in front of Jordan she then put my Sprite in front of me and said, “your food will be here shortly.” and then left.

“So you and Jake have been hanging out a lot lately.” Jordan said.

“Yeah... why?” I asked.

“Do you... uh, like him?” Jordan asked.

“Did he ask you to ask me that?” I said hoping to get the truth.

“Uh... no,” Jordan said.

“Okay...Well, Jake and I are just friends.” I said and then our meals arrived and just on time, it was starting to get kind of awkward. We ate our food and then ordered dessert.

“So, are you gonna tell me where we are gonna go next or not?” I asked Jordan really curious. I hate not knowing things!

“No.” he said.

“Tell me! Please!” I pleaded.

“Never!” he said.

“Tell me!!!” I yelled.

“Just wait 15 minutes Emma!” he yelled back.

“Ugh, okay.” I said. Our desserts arrived, I got an ice cream sundae and Jordan got a banana split. We pretty much shared everything and then he paid for our lunch. We went walked outside.

“Where are we going?!” I whined.

“You'll see. Come on.” he said and then started walking. We walked for about 5 minutes.

“Oh my god, I remember this place. We use to come here almost every week when we were kids.” I said thinking of all the great memories.

“Yup. So wanna play?” Jordan said.

“Hell yeah, but I'm gonna beat your ass.” I said. Jordan took me to a mini golf place that we all used to go to when we were kids.

“I don't think so.” Jordan said.

“Uh, I do think so. I beat your ass when we were like 10. So I think I could beat your sorry ass now.” I said.

“Oh yeah! Let's bet on it!” Jordan said.

“Okay, if I win...” I said thinking of what I could get from Jordan. “You have to do what ever I say for a whole week.” I said confidently.

“And if I win, I get to take you out on another date.” Jordan said with a slight smile. Wait a second, another date, so that means that he thinks that this is a date. Hell yeah!

“Another date? This isn't a date, Jordan,” I said while motioning my hands around.

“Well then, in that case, why don't we make it one.” Jordan said as he took a step closer to me and started to lean down. Oh my gosh! He's gonna kiss me! He put his hand on my cheek, I closed my eyes and he kissed me. This kiss was unbelievable, I'd even call it magical. It brought back all the good memories that we've had together. I felt sparks throughout my body, I felt something I had never felt with a guy before, love.

“Well, that's not fair.” I said.

“What?” Jordan said confused and the smile that he had slowly faded away.

“If the only to get another date with you is to lose then I will purposely lose.” I said
