Amy p.o.v
“Hey, how was your day?” My Aunt asked me, as I
walked through the door. I lived with my aunt and her son Blake
in their house in Nashville, Tennessee while my dad was away. I
lived with a different family member every time he was gone. I
placed my bag on the closes kitchen chair. “Good.” I
answered shortly. “Meet anyone new?” My phone started
to vibrate in my pocket as my aunt said that. I reached in and
grabbed it to see who it was. The caller ID read
“Brayden”. I couldn’t help but smile when I
read the name pop up. “Uhhh yeah, just a few people. I
guess.” I said looking at my phone. “Wear something
warm I have a surprise for you” Brayden texted me.
“A surprise?” I sent back to him. “Hey
Auntie Sarah, I met someone today and he was wondering if he
could show me down town tonight?” I told her. She looked at
me with a suspicious look on her face. “A boy? What’s
his name?” My Aunt asked concerned. “Brayden, he
seems really nice. He said he would pick me up by seven, so I
wouldn’t need a ride. Please?” I begged with the best
pleading face I could do. She smiled at me and nodded.
“Alright, I guess you can go, but make sure you’re
back by ten.” She instructed. “Thank you so much.
I’ll make sure I’m back in time, I promise.” I
ran over to her and gave her a hug. I grabbed my bag from the
kitchen chair and ran upstairs to get ready. I wasn’t
exactly sure what to wear. All I knew was it had to be something
warm, but I wanted it to be cute at the same time. I opened the
doors to my closet and right away found my ripped Abercrombie
jeans, a plain black long sleeved shirt and my American eagle
hoodie to put over it. I let my hair fall onto my shoulders into
lose curls. When I was finished getting ready all I could do was
stare at the clock and pray to god the time would go by
faster.
“Amy, do you know where my char…ummm where are
you going?” My cousin questioned me. I looked down at my
outfit. “Is it really too much?” I asked confused.
“It depends where you’re going?” He sat down on
the bed, beside me. “Well someone asked me if he could show
me around down town tonight. I’m not exactly sure what to
wear.” I told Blake. I wasn’t expecting much since he
was guy and he really didn’t understand why it was a big
deal to look nice going down town. “Then you look good. Who
is he?” Blake asked. “His name is Brayden; he’s
a defenseman on the varsity ice hockey team.” I answered
his question. “Wait, you mean to tell me Brayden Terasse
asked you on a date? He’s like my best friend. I
can’t believe he actually asked you out. He’s the
type that can get any girl he wants.” Blake explained to
me. “Wow thanks Blake that made me feel so good about
myself. I mean I’m not that ugly believe it or not” I
said back to him in a kind of pissy tone. “No I
didn’t mean it like that; I just thought he had a thing
with Kelsey. The captain of the cheerleading squad. They broke up
like last month. I could have sworn they were gonna get back
together. What can I say, I mean he is Brayden. He does what
pleases him.”
Now I was second guessing myself. If Brayden was all he seemed to
be what would he want with me. I’m just a nerd with a
pretty face. Nothing special. “What where you gonna ask for
when you first came in?” I asked trying to change the
subject. “Oh do you know where my phone charger is?”
He asked. “Yeah, I saw it downstairs in the living
room.” I answered. “Thanks Amy. Have fun.”
Blake said as he patted my head and walked out of my room. I
checked my phone to see if I had any missed calls or messages.
There was one message from Brayden in my inbox. “Yeah, I
think you’ll have fun ;)” I hope he’s right. I
kind of need it right now because I’m missing my dad like
crazy. He’s all I have left ever since my mom passed away
when I was five. I think that’s why Blake and I get along
so well, he lost his Dad three years ago in a fire. His Dad was a
firefighter and perished in what they call the biggest fire of
Nashville, Tennesse since 1908. He was trying to save a little
girl, Emma. He ended up rescuing her but he couldn’t save
his own life. My Dad is my hero and Blake’s Dad was his
hero. I hope tonight will allow me to get my Dad off my mind for
a little while. I hope it goes well...
