A Girl’s Diary

"Wait a second!" I said through my confusion. "What are you talking about?" 

"So, as I was not saying because you interrupted me-" She started. 

I wasn't about to hear this. "No bloody introductions. Get to the point." I glared at her. She gulped. 

"Jason, you're my assigned bodyguard." She said. That bad? "You're going to be late for your date. Simple as that." 

"Define a date," I demanded. Maybe it wasn't what I was thinking about. Maybe it was just my mind playing tricks. Maybe... 

"Wait a sec," Tommy said. "Let me consult Google the know-it-all!" He took out his phone. What was going on with the world? Was this because of pollution? Was there some disease making people dumb?! "Ookay, so, Google said 'A date a noun used to describe an audition for sex.'" 

"Did you seriously just say that?" Sky guffawed while I was thunderstruck. 

Panic mode on! "Whatever the heck going on? Did you set me on a blind date? Online dating? Louis? What did you do? Because right now I'm panicking and my imagination is going wild. So, talk." Before I go crazy I wanted to add. I loudly fussed going through my thoughts like a kite through a gale. 

"You're impossible, Eli" So now, I was the impossible one! "How could you think I would ever do that. I mean come on." She said sounding innocent but for her bad luck, I knew her too well. Nothing is strange when it comes to her! 

"Sky, I'm taking over-explaining," Jason said. Finally! A decent person! 

"As if you can do better." She mocked. 

"The thing is, the guys are spending the day together. Sky is going to a party so you'll stay alone." What? How was that even related to a date? I raised my brow waiting for him to answer my questions. "The point is, you can take a tour around the city and Ron asked if we wanted to join him but we weren't free so you can go with him." 

"No, you must go." She interrupted. Of course, she'd say that! "I can't wait for your wedding!" 

Thank God I wasn't drinking anything or else... it would have been flying out of my mouth... instead I nearly choked.
