Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 68

Ch 16

I glanced at my closet; I should be getting ready right

about now. I’m supposed to be heading to Jonah’s

house in an hour but here I am procrastinating. It’s 7

o’clock in the evening and I’m watching television

reruns. My phone starting ringing and I groaned.

“Are you getting ready or are you watching Breaking

Bad?”

I winced at Mere’s accusations. “It’s sad that you’d

think so low of me,” I muttered as I brushed through

my wet hair.

“Seriously, Savannah, get ready,” she hung up

before I could even protest and I grumbled as I

stood up and walked towards my closet.

I swung open the door and thumbed through my

sweaters. Finding my blue ‘Free Hugs’ sweatshirt and

tossing it onto my bed, I went to the other side of

my closet and grabbed a pair of black jeans.

I quickly dressed in the clothes before grabbing my

straightener and fixing my hair. With only fifteen

minutes left, I raced toward my closet again and

pulled out my blue winter boots. The things are

made to walk in the snow. I grabbed my coat out of

the closet before stuffing my arms into it. Filling my

pocket with my phone, lip balm, gum, and some

cash, I exited my room.

“Have fun, love you!” my mom and dad cheered

from the living room. As I exited the house, I saw

Jeremiah leaning against the side of my car.

“What?” I asked as I approached him. He shrugged.

“I just wanted to tell you to have fun, but not too

much fun,” he narrowed his eyes at me and I rolled

my eyes before getting in my car. “Don’t forget to

get your New Year’s kiss.”

I scowled while driving away. Jonah texted me the

address and I realized that I have no clue where it is.

I pursed my lips as I strained my mind; if I don’t

know where it is, I’ll end up going in circles. And it’ll

only make me dizzy.

Putting my phone on speaker and placing it in the

dashboard holder, I dialed Jonah’s number. “Hello?”

“Are you on your way?” Jonah’s eager voice asked.

I laughed. “I’m attempting to get there; I don’t know

where your street is,” I told him sheepishly.

He chuckled. “Where are you?” he asked me.

“I’m on the corner of Grimes and Dixon,” I told him

and he began giving me directions.

“Do you want me to just pick you up?” he asked and

I battled with myself for a minute. What if, let’s say,

we do kiss at the party, wouldn’t it be awkward

when we drive back together?

“Yeah, that’d be great,” I told him.

“I’m already 30 minutes away. I hope you don’t

mind if we have to make a stop at the store,” he told

me and I told him it was no big deal before I started

driving back home.

When I got home, I entered the house and my

parents turned to look at me. “Did he cancel on you?”

“Honey, it’s okay. Plenty of guys cancelled on me,”

my mother started to say but I furrowed my

eyebrows.

“Actually, he’s coming to pick me up because I have

no clue where I’m going and the GPS on my phone

doesn’t work,” I informed them, taking off my coat.

They both nodded before turning back to the

television.

When Jonah arrived at my house, I quickly exited. I

was trying to avoid my father, who was eager to

come outside and make conversation. I dived into

the passenger’s seat. “Hurry up! Drive!”

“What?” Jonah asked as he started driving away

from my house. I glanced out the back window to

see my dad watching the car as it drove away.

“What happened?”
