building both of our classes are in.
With a thoughtful look on her face we step into the building. "I think I do, Kate. I really do. We got to talk for a while when you and Liam were off having your...discussion.", she raises an eyebrow at me and I feel myself blush. "He asked me about me too, like he was really interested and not just trying to be polite.", she shrugs and bites her lip. "Time will tell, I guess."
"That it will...he'll be lucky to have you if he so chooses. And I'll kick his butt if he ends up hurting you too!"
We both laugh at that and Krista puts her hand on my arm. "I'll do the same to Liam if he ends up breaking your heart again Kate. He may be a nice piece of man candy to stare at on the big screen, but if it comes down to it, I'll kick that boys butt for hurting my best friend"
I smile and hug her. "I love you, Kris. You’re the best best friend ever"
"I know, and I love you too.", she smiles as she pulls back and darts her eyes around. "Do you think their around somewhere?"
"Eric and Nate? It's likely"
She nods and takes a breath. "Well, I'm gonna be late, see you later!"
"Ok, see you later.", I wave and walk down the hall to my class and stop inside the doorway when I see Eric sitting in a desk in the back corner.
Shaking my head, I nod slightly at him and go to my desk in the front. I guess this really is the start of a new life.
Chapter 8
Later that night as I'm reading over some history notes, my phone rings and I smile seeing Liam's name on the screen.
"Hey there, movie star.", I answer and close my journal.
"Hey yourself, beautiful...um, what are you and Krista doing tonight?"
I cock an eyebrow and look over at her. "Uh not much, just studying a little bit, why?"
"Well, Scott and I thought it would be nice for us to all...go on a double date.", he replies sounding nervous and I let out a laugh.
"Tonight? Is that really smart?", I ask curiously and start glancing around for clothes that could be considered "Date worthy"
"We have bodyguards, remember? And where we going, we don't gotta worry anyway."
"And where exactly will we be going? And what should we wear?"
"A private club, private room for us and any special guests and there'll be a bouncer on top of our own security. As for your clothes...do you have a little black dress?", he asks mischievously.
I laugh as I walk to my closet and pull out a simple black dress I use for interviews. “Yes, I do and some nice little black heels that go along with it."
"Mmm, that, definitely that...oh wait a sec..", I can hear his hand muffle the phone and him talking with someone else then hear him talking again. "Scott says to tell Krista to wear something red."
"Right, ok. Um, when should we be ready exactly?"
"In an hour...a limo will be coming to get you."
My mouth drops open. "An hour?! Are you crazy? We have to take showers, do our make-up and all that stuff!"
I hear them both laughing over the line. "Well then you better hurry baby!"
"Then I have to get off the phone like, now! Bye!", I hang up and turn to a confused looking Krista.
"Ok, start filling me in on what the heck is going on.", Krista demands with her hands on her hips.
"We have an hour to get showered, gussied up and all before the guys send a limo for a double date!"
"What?! Oh my God! I can't go on a date with Scott Adams looking like this!", she screeches and starts running around the room grabbing hair products and make-up and throwing clothes around the room.
"Whoa!" I grab a flying skirt and laugh. "Ok, take a breath.", I walk over and put my hands on her shoulders as she takes a deep breath.
"He says he wants you to wear something red.", I tell her with a smile.
"Hmm, I believe I have just the thing.", she tells me with a secretive glint in her eyes as she grabs a slinky little strapless red dress out of the closet.
"I think that'll work.", I nod at her and we both dash around getting ready.
"So, where are we going?", Krista calls from the bathroom
