O.P.B. Chapter 14 pt. 2 - Thank God it's Almost Friday's ...

Leah's side ...
I must of been bored because I ended out coming outside to shovel the 8 inches of snow on the ground from the driveway. About 12 minutes into it, I noticed a tall shadow over me. I slowly turned around and jumped a little.

"Geez! You scared me!" I screeched. Tye was hovering over me chuckling as he leaned in to hug me.

"Moms got you shoveling huh?" He said to me as he walked over to sit on my porch.

"No not really. Got bored and said what the hell. School's out and I have not a clue what to do. My friend was over here earlier but my mom gave her the boot from what I understood," I told him.

I sat the shovel against the garage door and went to sit next to Tye on the porch. "Where's your car?"

"In my driveway. I didn't feel like moving it. The walk over was okay. But I came over here to ask you about me and you," Tye said to me with a glisten in his eyes.

I felt myself blush. "Oh ... umm... okay. What about us?"

"Well, you owe me a date. I feel that through our texts we share a lot in common so I wanna take you out. Do you mind?" He asked me.

I smiled down to the ground, shying away from his green or hazel eyes. "Sure, why not? I could use a date. I don't get out much anyway."

Tye nodded his head in agreeance and said, "Cool. Well I get out class at 6:30 tomorrow so how about I swing by and scoop you up at 8? Hopefully the snow will melt," he added.

"Sounds like a deal to me. Wait! Where are we going?" I asked him.

"How about Friday's? I have this thing where everytime I go to that restaurant, bad things happen to me. I love the food, but my luck runs dry. Like the last few times I've been to one, one girl dumped me, another girl was a klepto and stole my damn wallet, and another girl, well, let's just say she ate too much!" He joked.

I couldn't help but laugh. "As long as you can keep a good humor about that. I wouldn't even have gone back. But this time will be different. I don't eat much, I don't steal, and I won't dump you!" I assured him with a grin.

He rubbed his hands together trying to warm them up. "Damn it's cold!"

Corey's side ...
I ran back downstairs after making reservations at Friday's for tomorrow to surprise Leah. I just needed someone to bait her there. And who better to do it than the person she hangs out with the most! I grabbed my cell phone out and called Aliya.

"What do you want?" She answered blatantly.

"Not your ass! I need a favor."

She sighed heavily. "What now Carter?"

"I need you to get Leah to go to Friday’s. I am going to surprise her with this crazy dinner and whatnot but I don’t want her even expecting it," I said.

"Sure whatever. What time?" She asked.

"Like 8ish. The appetizers will be on the table already so yeah, do that for me," I said.

"Yeah yeah yeah. And what’s in it for me?" Aliya asked me.

"Uhm… how about 30$ so you can go and get those hideous press-ons you chicks be wearing," I said to her rolling my eyes.

"They’re not press-ons jackass their called fill ins. And I get designs so make it 40$ I have to tip the ladies," she added.

"Deal.’’

"Alright then Im on my way over there now. Who’s paying for all that crap you have arranged for her anyway?" She asked me with curiosity.

"I got connections," I joked.

"Your rich ass dad isn’t a connection. You’re a spoiled ass brat!" She said and hung up.

Aliya’s side …

I arrived at Leah’s house to do that stupid favor for Corey. I rang the doorbell and she answered.
Could you answer it any faster?" I asked.

"Shut up. What brings you back?" she asked me.

"Well, if you must ask, I figured that we should both you and me, " I said to her pointing to her then me, "should go and have a girl’s night out tomorrow. You know, go to eat at Friday’s."

She gave me this weird look as if she did something. "What the hell are you looking all guilty for?"

Leah slowly glided across the kitchen and sat down. I planted myself across from and gave her the eye.

"See, remember Tye? The boy I told you I met a while back when I was picking up Jade?" She asked me.

I rolled my eyes. ‘Yeah the one I said that I wanted to meet. But yeah what about him?"

"He asked me out to Friday’s tomorrow. And we’re going. So sorry," she pleaded sympathetically.

This was gonna be a big problem. Not only did Corey think ahead of himself and plan in advance, but the girl he’s trying to surprise is definitely gonna be surprised now. Oh this was gonna be good.

"Well … okay. But Im warning you, tomorrow night is gonna be the night of your life. I love you to death, but this is what you get!" I warned her. I got up and headed out of the house, with a sly grin on my face. Corey’s really gonna have to put up a fight. But knowing Leah, she’ll give in to him. She loves him. Or does she??
