Hellooooo.
So what's new with me? Hmmm... last night me and JT went to the Dot and shared a chocolate milkshake. : D I think that's my favorite thing to do with him.
And school starting! How exciting, being a grade-tenner. : ) It just feels so... HAPPY, you know? New clothes, new backpack, great boyfriend, old friends, everything exciting. I love the first day of school.
Oh and you'll never believe this. JT and I got lockers together!!! He's not exactly right by me, but he's maybe five lockers away. : D It's great, we can walk to class together, he'll stand by me while I put my stuff away and vice versa.
I feel like we're going to be together forever!!! xD

So I never updated on that party. Well, the main event is that Craig and me aren't going to be weird around each other anymore. Thank. Freaking. God. JT and I danced A LOT. We drank quite a bit, too, but not enough to get really drunk or throw up. Enough that we kind of fooled around in another room, but not enough to go anywhere near all the way.
Ashley and Craig, can I come to one of your band rehearsals sometime? From what I hear, you're pretty damn good.

JT... my boyfriend... sounds so nice... [27 Jul 2004 12:22am]

[ music | "Gotta Let it Burn"- Usher ]

So JT and I went on our second date. ROLLER SKATING! I loved it, it was soooo fun! We were just rolling around, laughing and talking, having the most fun ever. A slow song came on...
...
...
I thought that was weird... who skates slow? But I went with it. Suddenly (I don't know what came over me, this happens a lot with JT...) I was kissing him in the middle of the floor. At first he like, flinched, but then he got into it. That is until some little punk knocked all of us over. The kid started crying but I was just laughing, pretty soon JT was laughing too. Laughing, laughing, laughing. Both our dates have been filled with that. Eventually we got tired and a little hungry, so we went back to my house, but we ended up just making popcorn and settling on the couch with a movie. Then, out of the blue, he just kisses me. Of course I didn't mind, this is something I would have done, so I kissed him back... things were getting pretty hot and heavy till my tyrant parents waltzed in the door (they'd been out). JT made a quick exit.
"Manuela Santos! WHAT are you doing with a boy here when we're not home?" my mother bellowed, "And you aren't supposed to be kissing boys! Not after what happened with..." I could tell she didn't want to say it. I just wanted to scream, FREAKING SAY IT, MOM! IT WAS A FREAKING ABORTION! She didn't. She sort of changed the subject, "Was that JAMES YORKE!?"
My dad cut in, "You can't see James then. Not if you're going to do... THAT."
I tried to interrupt, "But Mom, Dad, we weren't-"
"No, Manuela." My mom said, "You are not to see James again."
I just ran out the door.
You already know what I told him- that my parents wouldn't let me see him, but I told him they weren't gonna keep us apart. He just put his arms around me and I cried and cried, not knowing what to do. Then I kissed him. We just stood there for a while before going for a walk. I told him everything, how upset my mom had been with me lately, how overprotective she'd been since that stupid abortion, and how she, of all people, thought I was a slut. He listened to all of it. He's the best for being there for me. Then I just kissed him and it was the most amazing feeling. I went home then, confident enough to face my parents...
When I walked in the door, they were sitting on the couch.
"Manuela, do NOT walk out on us like that again."
I sighed and closed my eyes, "Could you... PLEASE call me Manny?"
My dad continued, ignoring me, "You really upset me tonight, Manuela."
I stood in front of them. I felt powerful, standing up while they were sitting down.
"JT and I were just kissing. We weren't going to go any further. I'm not that... EASY, okay?"
"But you and Craig Manning..."
I threw my hands up in the air, "It was STUPID! It happened once and I just got unlucky! I'm not..." I wondered if I should use this word, "I'm not a slut."
My parents' eyes widened. I think they were surprised I'd use that word in front of them.
"You honestly think I'm going to make that mistake again?" I whispered.
So we talked for a while. My parents began to understand where I was coming from, and now that they trust me, I think they're going to go easier on me. It was one in the morning before we headed to bed. My parents agreed to let me see JT, and I could even have him over, because they trusted me not to have sex... then they hugged and kissed me goodnight.
Okay, well, I really like JT, I might even love him.
But sex can wait...
for now.

P.S. HAVING A PARTY! Friday night, EVERYONE COME!!!

Oh God I had sooo much fun at Paige's party! JT and I were there together of course and we both realized that we LOVE dancing together. It was awesome! :-) OMG so then I saw Craig and Ashley go outside together. I knew what was happening, and believe it or not, that made my night a hundred times better. Craig and Ash are back together!!! :-) Everything I ruined built itself back up, and I'm so, so glad. <333
I LOVE JT!

Okay, so JT and I went out to dinner and to see a movie. I had sooo much fun! My parents were out so he came to pick me up (he walked, he doesn't live that far.) We took the bus downtown and talked the whole way there. He's so funny! Kept telling me jokes and stuff. So then we get there and walk around.
"So, where do you want to eat?" he asked.
"Oh, I dunno..." I said, I was just happy to be with him.
In the end we went for fast food. McDonalds. Because we're not that kind of intense, fancy-dinner, sit down people who'd pick champagne over beer (that was totally random, I don't know where it came from), we're old friends dating and we're going to go somewhere where we're going to have fun. So that's what we did, we went to McDonalds. He paid for it. We laughed and joked the whole time. We always have tons to talk about. Then we went to the movie... I let him pick. We saw some comedy, which was perfect for us. He kept mimicking the characters when it was done. Anyway, during the movie, we were sharing an armrest, and it was just like TV... his hand kept moving toward mine. I could tell he was a little nervous, although he's good at hiding it. So... I moved my hand closer too, until he just reached over and held my hand. I smiled and we enjoyed the rest of the movie. The bus wasn't coming again till 12 (it was 11:30- and 11:45 is his curfew) so JT called Sean- I had no idea they were even friends- and had him come pick us up. Sean had an errand to run- he was going to give something to Ellie, who lives kind of by me, so he came to pick us up first, and he would walk over to Ellie's while we were saying goodnight. Here's how it went down. JT walked me to the door, and I opened it (my parents were still gone. They went to the theatre). I stood in the doorway for a minute, we just looked at each other. It was one of those moments when you feel like you're going to kiss, and you want to kiss, but you don't... after a moment I said, "Um... bye." and waved.
He nodded and said, "Bye."
I closed the door, and watched him climb into the car out of my window. And before I knew it, I'd ran out my house, flung open the car door, and started making out with him. It was the best kiss EVER.

Suddenly it seems everything is going right! Ashley and I talked, and we've agreed to put all this Craig crud behind us. She's such a nice girl and I'm so glad to have her as a friend. And JT asked me out! Of course I said yes! I've liked him for so long, I'm so glad we're finally getting together... tomorrow night, we're going out for dinner and a movie.

This is driving me NUTS! I just read JT's latest 2 journal entries talking about how much he thought of me... I mean, does he really like me? I really like him... I mean REALLY... of course I still think a lot about Craig, but he's a thing of the past. I really like JT a lot and if he really does like me maybe we should go out...

Hi everybody! :-D Well, what did I do today... hmm, let's see... I was at home. Ha that's fun. I talked a little online to Paige and Hazel and then I sat at home... thinking. I'm really sick of Craig, and I'm sick of thinking about Craig. Yet at the same time it seems like I can't get over him. I'm even starting to like JT... okay, I like JT a LOT... but everytime I think about him, I think "What about Craig?"
