Chapter 7 - Chapter 7: SunDate

"So um where are we going?" I asked Zack as soon as we reached his car.

"How 'bout we watch a movie?"

"Uh s-sure why n-not?"

"Are you nervous?"

"M-me? D-don't be ridiculous."

"C'mon Jade, it's okay to be nervous."

"B-but I'm n-not."

"Ok ok, Fine." He laughed.

"Let's get going shall we."

"S-sure." I was a bit nervous. I mean it is my first date after all. NO this is a HANGOUT. Not a date. Can't let Lane's words affect me now can I?

"Um Jade?" He asked waving his hand in front of me.

"Yea?" Great Jade, you didn't stutter. Good job.

"We're here." He smiled.

"O-oh, l-lets go then." Damn stuttering Jade. Can you give me a break?

"Sooo, what movie do you want to watch?" Zack asked as soon as we stepped in the theater.

"Umm, I-I really don't know what to watch."

"Is that so?"

"Y-Yea."

"Why not?"

"E-every time m-me and Lane go to the movies she would always pick a-and I just enjoy the m-movie."

"Don't you want to pick?"

"I don't really know what to choose."

"Oh. Um Hey. There's Jason." He said pointing behind me.

WAIT WHAT?! I turned my head so fast that I think I broke it.

"YO JASE!" Zack shouted while waving his hand.

Now he's coming here. HE'S COMING HERE! Just be calm Jade. BE CALM! Wait a minute is that? Shit! It's Shelby. GREAAAATT.

"Hey Zack." He said while smiling and high fiving him.

"So um what are you two doing here?" Zack asked.

"I-"

"We're on a date." Shelby interrupted him.

"Oh. Okay. So what you guys watching?"

"Umm we haven't decided yet."

"So have we, wanna watch together? Like you know double date."

"So you guys are dating?"

"NO!" I said then realizing I said it too loud. Damn Jade, I said calm.

"N-no, um we're not dating." I repeated myself more calmingly

"Yea, I asked her if she wanted to hang out."

"Suuree." Shelby said sarcastically.

"So what do you want to watch?" Zack said.

"How 'bout we watch that scary movie." Jason said.

"You mean the one with that doll?"

"Yea. That's the one."

"Sure why not."

"You okay with that Jade?" Zack said while looking at me.

"Uhm, s-sure." I lied I really don't like to watch scary movies. It makes me sweat and it will make my heart beat so loud that the whole place will shake. Not really but you get the point.

"Great. Me and Jason will buy the tickets, why don't you guys talk?" And with that they both left.

"So, Zack huh?" Shelby said breaking the silence.

"Uhm uh y-yea." Obviously I won't tell her that I like Jason that will just make her hate me more.

"Uh huh." She said. And once again silence fell between us. I mean what's there to talk about?

"We got the tickets. Oh um do you guys want snacks?" Zack said once they got back.

"I-I'm really not that hungry." I said.

"Yea me either." Shelby said.

"So if no one's hungry, let's go watch our movie?"

"Yea let's go." Jason said.

We headed to the cinema and I was sitting between to Zack and Jason. Now without the movie started I'm starting to get sweaty but why would he go out with Shelby? Of all the people in campus does it have to be her?

Now the movies starting and I could hear Zack whispering to me but I wasn't really listening until he nudged me with his elbows.

"U-uh? Yea?" I asked while facing him.

"I was asking if you are feeling cold?" Zack asked while trying to feel my hand. I startled.

"Oops! Sorry, just not used to people randomly touching me and no, I'm good." I smiled trying to hide my shyness.

"What are you guys talking over there?" Jason asked.

"Nothing." Zack replied.

Shelby was doing all those scared little girls scream and hiding on Jason's back. I mean do you really have to act like that? I know you're just doing that to make me jealous and to get near him.

The movie was starting to get a bit creepy, I was so frightened that I jumped on my seat while holding Zack.

"Getting scared there Jade?" He said then chuckled.

"N-No I-I just got.." Dang Jade think of an excuse already!

"Startled." Startled yea great idea Jade. Stupid. And I mentally face palm myself.

"Sure Jade, whatever you say." He said with a smirk.

We continued to watch the movie in silence until Shelby said she need to go to the bathroom and Zack left to buy more drinks. Soo I am here in the cinema with Jason. ALONE!

"So, are you enjoying the movie?" Jason said breaking the silence.

"U-Uh n-not really. These types of movies isn't really my clique."

"Yea me too."

"R-Really?"

"Yea. I hate movies. But it's fun watching with friends."

"Oh-h, what about Shelby? Is she a f-friend or more?" I said curiously then he looked at me with one eyebrow up.

"I-I didn't me-mean to ask is just t-that I was curious, I mean if you don't want to a-answer that its fine. Maybe y-you shouldn't answer tha---"

"Jade?" He said interrupting me.

"Y-Yea?"

"You're rambling." He said with a smirk.

"O-oh."

"We're just friends."

"What?"

"Me and Shelby, we're just friends."

"But I thought you we're dating?"

"Nope. She said she wanted to hang-out. I dont know why she said that this was a date."

"Oh."

"Sooo, Zack huh?"

"U-Uh no, w-we we're just. I-I mean he just.. I really didn't want.."

"Jade?" He said then held my hand.

"Uh y-yea?" I said trying not to blush.

"You're rambling again."

"O-Oh."

"I mean I get it if your dating. Its fine."

"U-uh, actually we are not dating. He asked me if I wanted to hangout then my mother said yes before I declined."

"That's good then."

"Why is tha---"

"Hey I'm back." Zack said interrupting me.

"Uhhh, why are you two holding hands?" Zack said while motioning his finger.

I quickly took my hand back and trying to hide the blush creeping to my face.

"W-we were just uhhh.."

"Her hands we're cold so I held her hand to make it warm." Jason said calmly.

"Uh, that was only one hand you were holding."

"I was done with the other."

"Uh huh, sure you were." Zack said then returned to look at the screen.

After the movie ended we went outside then Zack said he recieved a message from Jennette.

"Guys! Jennette just texted me. She said that she has a party tonight. You guys wanna go?" Zack said.

"Um sure." Jason said.

"Well yea I'm going." Shelby said.

"UUhhh I don't know. W-we do have school tomorrow." I said.

"Ofcourse, YOU would want to go to school tomorrow." Shelby said.

"C'mon Jade. It'll be fun." Zack said.

"Uhhh."

"C'mon just for a few hours. Please." Zack begged.

"Ugh fine. We'll go." I said. Ugh I hate myself. Peer Pressure whyyyy?!

Zack and I went to his car while Shelby went in Jason's. The drive was short and before I knew it I saw the same big house. Jennette's house to be exact.

We were going inside the house when-----

"JADE?"

"ASHLEY?"
