Today I told my class that I might be moving soon. Well, really I told one acquaintance, and then everyone else knew.

Everyone was really nice about it. I didn't talk to them much, but they said they were sorry and wanted to know why I had to leave. (I didn't tell them. I'm not that silly, Dad.)

Joshua said he'd miss me... He's really, really cute. I wanted to say something to him before I left, but today I clammed up like usual. It shouldn't be this hard to talk to a guy.

No telling my parents about this, okay? I don't think they would really like the idea of me liking anyone.

...Oh? And did he say why I owed him dinner?

I don't know! He just said it up the page. (http://vinodejerez.livejournal.com/521.html?thread=265#t265)

Okay, first of all, young lady, you're twelve and you don't need to be dating anyone. God, I didn't even have my first real date until... ~~Vanessa~~ I was much, much older. And now that you mention it, I do actually remember why I owe him dinner. ~~Can't believe he still wants to make good on that date. Ugh.~~

But he's nice and he's cute! The other kids in my classes have dates...

Yes, Dad.

Ah, don't worry about it too much, he might owe me dinner but he's done a lot of other stuff for me.

There you go. This kid - Joshua? - would probably appreciate it.

...Don't tell your mother, but I'm okay with it if you want to go to a movie with him.

...Dad found out.

You're the greatest dad ever!

If you say so.

Oh. Looks like Dad's not too impressed, huh?

Dads are like that, especially with girls. When'd you have your first date?

♥

Oh, hah, I don't remember all that well, long time ago now, you know...

...Is it embarrassing? I'm sorry...

Not really. Never been sick, never been injured for long. My body is very resistant.

That's handy.

I guess so, considerin' all the beatings I've taken.

When will you get somewhere you don't have to get beaten up in?

Half of them I was askin' for, the other half just happened naturally. Somethin' about my presence naturally sets some people off. Somethin' instinctual.

No, no, don't worry! Natural thing to ask.

Oh! Do you need help planning a romantic confession?

Are you good at those?

I think that you must have been cute when you were younger. So you don't have to worry about that.

I couldn't live like that.

Oh, yes! I've done quite a lot of research.
