First Date

Althea's first date.

I remember when my parents first told me I couldn't date.

I was six years old.

I had a crush on my next door neighbor Tommy. Tommy was cute, and to me atleast, funny, and he was nice to me. What more could a six year old ask for? But when I told my parents the whole thing just exploded in my face.  They were very upset and we even had the talk. No not that talk, the boys talk where they tell you, you cant date until your sixteen, blah, blah, blah.

Well I'm finally sixteen and I had a long line of boys waiting for me to turn so they could date me. My mom had made me wait until then. Lame right?

 So now I prepared for my first date ever.

I got dressed in low-rise, denim skinny jeans and a black tubetop. I pulled on knee high black boot pumps that pressed against my leg and curled my long auburn hair.I applied black eyeliner, mascara, and black and gray smoky eyeshadow.After spreading pale pink gloss on my already pale lips, I looked in the mirror.

If looks could kill... I was ready.

The doorbell rang. It was probably my date, Tyler Brown.

I dashed to the door before my parents could answer and say something emberassing.I was a minute too late.

"Hello sir, you must be Althea's father, It's a pleasure to meet you" Tyler said being the gentleman as always and  shook my fathers hand.

"Yes and you are?"My Dad asked. 

"I'm Tyler, Althea's date for the evening" he said and I ran for the door, down the flight of stairs before my dad could say something else.

"I'm sorry Tyler but Althea doesn't date" My dad said.

"Yes I do" I said and took one step out the door. My dad grabbed my arm before I could make my way out.

"we need to have the talk" he said and pulled me inside. "I know I know, no sex until I'm married" I said making both me and Tyler blush bright pink.

"No the one that sais you can't date util your married" he said.

"What! the first time we talked, it was until I was sixteen. what happened?" I asked a little angry. 

"Oh you remember that..." he said.

"Yes dad I remember" I said then yank free from his grip. Tyler led me to his royal blue convertible and opened the door for me. How sweet!

"Althea think about what your doing"

"Yeah, you might want to step on that" I told Tyler and pointed at the accelerator.

"Ok" he said smiling and stepped on the gas.

 Once I was sure we were far enough away from the house I asked him where we were going.

"You'll see" he simply answered.

Minutes later we drove up in front of a "Ralphs Noodle Shop"

"I love pasta, how'd you know?" I asked. "lucky guess" he said and got off rounding the car to open my door.

"Thank you" I said and got off the car.

"your welcome" he said and we walked in side by side, although he let me enter first.

"Table for two please" Tyler said and a waiter led us to a table with two chairs beside it. The table was in the center of the restaurant. I sat down in a chair while Tyler took the seat facing a table full of boys so I wouldn't face them.

This was obviously not Tylers first date

Simply, it’s cute. A second chapter would be interesting as well, but it can stand alone well enough to be its own story

I am assuming your going to add more, but i liked this. Not sure what to expect from the chapter title, but very contemporary and very honest.
