Double Date.

"Ms. Charlotte, do you have the answer?"

Huh. "Uhhh, 4"

"Seeing as we are in literature, I do not believe that 4 is the answer. Why don't you try staying awake in class next time." The teacher turned back around and started teaching again.

I drifted off again and eventually the bell had rung, dismissing class. I rubbed my eyes and grabbed my stuff and left class.

"So!" Tyler came up behind me and grabbed my waist causing me to jump. "How about another date tonight." He laughed at my reaction and walked beside me.

"One, please stop scaring me, two, do you not know what planning is?" He shook his head no.

"Soo is that a yes?" He smiled and I gave in. Sort of.

"It's a maybe." I smiled and he grabbed my hand and gave me what I assumed were 'puppy dog eyes'. "Okaaaaay. Another date." He dropped my hand and did a little victory dance. "Don't go all nerdy on me."

"Says the girl who pretended to be a nerd in the beginning of high school."

"Shush." He laughed and I pushed him into a locker.

"Ow." He rubbed his shoulder in mock pain.

He grabbed my hand again and I didn't make an attempt to pull away and we walked like that until we got to the cafeteria.

We walked through the line and grabbed our food and went to our table. Before we even sat down he stole a carrot off of my plate and popped it into his mouth.

"Tyleeeerrr."

"Oooo, I love it when you say my name."

Deja vu.

I slapped his arm and he laughed and held his hands up in defense. "Whaaat, you started it." I laughed and grabbed an apple slice off his plate. He frowned and tried to bite my finger.

"Did you try to bite me?" I tried my hardest to sound shocked. He smiled but his smile was quickly replaced when Mason sat in front of him.

"Mason... What are you doing?" Mason smiled as he put a carrot into his mouth.

"Sitting with my soon to be stepsister... Is that a problem?"

"Ye--"

"No"

"Good." Mason smiled again. "Soo. You two a thing...?" I choked on my water. "You okay?" He gave a sly smirk and I wiped the water from the side of my mouth.

"Not yet." I choked again. "Seriously, are you okay today?" Tyler tapped my back in a weak attempt to keep me from choking again.

"Peachy." I frowned and pushed the bottle of water away from me as Mason eyed me again.

"Anyways." Mason continued. "You guys would be cute together."

"Speaking of, where's your girlfriend?" I played his game. His eyebrows furrowed and he frowned but quickly replaced it with a smile.

"Oh she's somewhere around here."

As if on cue, Lily appeared behind Mason and covered his eyes.

An accidental, 'speaking of the devil' escaped my mouth.

"Guess who." She said in a high pitch voice.

"Hmmm, Kelly Clarkson..." She laughed in a mock tone and sat next to him.

"Why are you sitting over here?" She glanced over at Tyler and I.

"Why does everyone keep asking that?" Mason groaned and stood up from the table and went back to "the cool table" with lily trailing closely behind him like a lost puppy.

"Anyways, I'll pick you up at... Let's say 6" he smiled and I nodded still distracted.

The bell rung for lunch to end and Tyler and I did the routine thing and walked to class together only this time, he grabbed my hand and we walked like that. I avoided a few glares from Mason... And Lily and followed a giddy Tyler to class.

We stopped in front of my class door. "One of these days, you're gonna have to walk me to class."

"Awh do I really?" He laughed and shook his head.

"No because it'd make it weird if you went on for the kiss and not me.." Kiss?

As if on cue.. He leaned down and his lips touched mine. And once again, I found myself comparing this kiss to the one Mason and I had shared.

The amount of sparks it had, the temporariness of it, the lust behind his eyes, and my willingness to kiss back.

The kiss ended soon and I walked into class leaving a smiling Tyler behind. I sat in my seat and Maya squealed.

"How was it?"

Mediocre. Nothing compared to Mason. "Great." Or Something like that.

~~~~~~

I fell back on my bed exhausted from today, even though all I did was go to school, according to dad. It was now 4 o'clock, I had 2 hours to get ready and no best friend to help.

Maya was being forced to go to Mexico to visit family with her parents and wouldn't be back until next Monday. I sighed as I looked into the jungle I called a closet and came up with an easy solution.

I stood up suddenly happy and walked downstairs. Kelly was typing away at her computer and when she heard me she immediately stopped. "Hi doll, is there something you need?"

"Actually, yes... I need help getting ready for a date tonight." And when I said date, no one other than my favorite person(hint that's sarcasm.) turned around.

"Date?" He sounded surprised.

"Yes with Tyler tonight."

"What a coincidence, Lily and I are going out tonight too." I groaned.

Kelly smiled and turned back to me "where are you guys going?"

"Mini golf."

"How about that, that's where Lily and I are going too. The coincidences just keep adding up." Mason smiled and pulled out his phone. My guess is to text Lily and tell her that he'd just planned a date unexpectedly based off of my plans tonight.

"Oo, I know. " Kelly squealed and dragged me upstairs. It's scary how she reminded my of an older version of Maya. She pulled me into my room and ushered my onto the bed while she rummaged through my closet.

She pulled out a pair of blue high waisted shorts and a black tank and threw it onto the bed or more at me than the bed. I groaned as a button hit me in the face. She grabbed a blue cardigan that Maya had picked out for me.

"Ok ok, get dressed." She ran out of the room so I could get dressed. I quickly dressed myself because I had a feeling if I took too long she would come in here and do it for me.

I called her back into the room and she smiled successfully. "It looks great." She grabbed my arm again and dragged me into the bathroom where she put my hair into a high ponytail and put of a bit of eyeliner.

When she ran off to find shoes, I snuck in a few details myself. Like my lucky bow placed perfectly on top of my ponytail and a bit of mascara to show my otherwise hidden eyelashes.

She came back with my favorite pair of black flats and I slipped them on. Apparently just in time because the doorbell rung. "I'll get it" Kelly smiled and went downstairs, hopefully before Mason got the door.

I went to my room and grabbed my phone and purse and ran downstairs. Much to my misfortune, Mason and Tyler were talking together in the hall.

They both silenced as I came downstairs and smiled.

Tyler walked over to the stairs and kissed me on my forehead. I smiled as I non discretely inhaled his cologne. Kelly came into the hall and I had to quickly thank her. "It's no problem darling, I've always wanted a daughter."

"You've already done more than for me than my mother has ever done. Thank you."

"Oh that's not true, she bought you into this world, that's something I could never do."

I nodded my head in agreement and she smiled.

I grabbed Tyler's hand and dragged him out the door. "In a rush to play mini golf?"

"No. In a rush to get out of the house." And farther away from Mason

We arrived at the golf course quicker than expected and went to wait in line. And as if it were some type of reaction when standing next to me, Tyler grabbed my hand. Not that I minded holding his hand.

Tyler's smile faded into a look of depression as Mason strolled up next to us in line and Lily trailed behind him in a mini skirt and wedges. Just because it's mini golf, doesn't mean what you wearing has to also be mini.

"Funny meeting you here!" Mason smiled and I frowned.

"Funny, that's what you're calling it?"

Mason glanced down at mine and Tyler's hand and frowned. And grabbed Lily by the waist and pulled her closer to him, much to her delight. She kissed him on the cheek and I gagged internally.

"Hey, why don't we make this a double date."

"A what?" Lily and I said at the same time.

"Double date, come on. It'd be fun. The couple who wins, buys ice cream."

"No ma--"

"Deal." Tyler held out the hand that wasn't holding mine.

We were next in line and I was already exhausted.

~~~

Turns out, Tyler is good at mini golf. Because we were ahead of Mason and Lily. "Looks like you'll be buying us ice cream?" Tyler bragged and Mason grunted as Lily once again missed the ball.

Eventually she ended up kicking the ball and hurting her foot, to which she gave up.

"I quit, I quit, I quit!" She threw a little tantrum and the kids near by began to laugh at her miserable attempt to play mini golf.

"Fine." Mason groaned and we all walked to the ice cream cart. Lily pouted the whole way there.

"Thanks Mason." I smiled and ate my ice cream. That is until a certain someone's spoon found its way into my bowl. Tyler smiled happily as he put a spoonful of my ice cream into his mouth.

I took a spoonful of his ice cream and smiled in victory. He put some of his ice cream onto my nose and I frowned. I wiped some onto his cheek and he laughed and wiped the ice cream off of my nose. He leaned in and kissed me.

"You're so cute, even with ice cream on your nose." I smiled and he kissed me again.

I heard Mason coughing in the background and Lily frantically patting his back. "Lily, I'm fine." He groaned.

We ate the rest of ice cream and went home.

Tyler walked me to the door. "I had fun tonight." I said, despite the rain on our parade, better known as Mason.

"I'm glad." He smiled and kissed. And for the first time I felt a spark. I was a little one, but it was a spark nonetheless.

He left and I walked into the house. Mason wasn't back yet and I sighed in relief as I quickly ran upstairs to take a shower.

I took a quick shower and brushed my teeth. I walked out of the bathroom, and there was Mason waiting... Shirtless. And suddenly I felt like Edward, does this guy own a shirt?

And there I stood, face to face, with a shirtless Mason..... In a towel. "Mason..." He grabbed my waist and pulled me into the bathroom and slammed the door shut.

And I soon found myself against the bathroom door with Mason hovering over me.

Fucking Deja Vu.

"He kissed you..."

"I know, I was there."

"Was it better?"

"What?"

"Was his kiss better than mine?"

"I'm not ans--"

His lips smashed into mine cutting me off briefly. I melted into Mason's arms and almost immediately began to kiss back. He pushed me closer to the door and a gasp escaped from my ears, making Mason smile into the kiss.

The kiss was full of lust, want and hunger. I wanted Mason, he wanted me.

But this...

Ahh forget it.

I kissed harder and he returned it. His hand went to my thigh and rubbed briefly before traveling up.

No.

No I can't.

I pushed him off much to his, and mine, dismay.

"Mason I can't." I opened the bathroom door and ran into my room, still panting from what just happened.

I heard his room door slam closed and I sighed and fell back onto my bed.

Shit.
