"Jordy, can we stop at my house to get some of my stuff?"
"Yeah sure."
Jordainne pulled into my driveway and I ran up to the house.
"Hi, I'm home!" I yelled walking in the front door.
"HI Kiara," my mom said walking out of the kitchen.
"Is it ok if I stay at Jord's again tonight?"
"Yeah, I guess that's fine," my mom replied giving me a hug.
I ran up the stairs to my room and packed a bag quickly. I ran back downstairs and yelled good-bye to my mom.
"OK Jord, let's go."
"Jodainne pulled out of the driveway and headed toward the mall.

"Do you like this one?" I asked Jordainne, holding up a short, plum colored dress.
"I like that. You should try it on."
"Ok," I said going into the dressing room.
A few minutes late I came out of the dressing room with the dress on to show Jordainne. As I walked out, Jordainne's mouth dropped open.
"You look gorgeous Kiara."
I looked down at the fitted purple dress. I had to admit it did look pretty good. I also couldn't help wonder what AJ would think of it.
"You have to get it. AJ will love it," Jordainne said almost reading my mind.
"I think I will. I like it."
I went back in and changed into my clothes. I joined Jordainne again and went to pay for the dress. We shopped for a few more hours before going back to Jordainne's room.
When we got back, Jordainne looked through her new clothes while I sat on her bed singing along with the radio.
"Hey Kiara, I was wondering something."
"Yeah? What's that?"
"Would you mind staying at AJ's tonight? I mean, if he's all right with it."
"Yeah I'll stay there. Believe me, he'll be ok with it. Why do you want me to stay there?"
"I think tonight's the night."
"Really? Just remember what I said ok Jord?"
"Don't worry I will."
"So what are you wearing tonight?"
"I'm not sure. What are you going to wear? I think you should wear your new dress."
"If I do AJ will be all over me."
"That's very true."
"You know I'm surprised AJ hasn't pressured me to have sex with him more. I'm telling you that boy is a hornball."
Jordainne laughed.
"Yeah he is."
"All he thinks about it sex. Well, not really, but you get the idea."
"Do you mind if I take a shower?"
"No go ahead."
While Jordainne took her shower, I sat and wondered what was going to happen between me and AJ that night. I wasn't sure if I was ready to have sex with him again. I knew he wanted it; although, I wasn't sure if I was quite ready to do it again. By the time Jordainne came out of the shower, I had decided that I was ready to do it again.
