"Do you want him?"

Carla's eyes widened slightly at the unexpected question.

"I know you do. He wants you too," the other girl paused. "He has for a while."

Carla's heart fluttered. She knew there was something behind his mindless flirting, but she wasn't sure what. It's been nearly a year since she's begun to feel something for him, she was beginning to think nothing will ever happen, even though there was this gut feeling telling her he was into her.

She shook her head at the other girl.

Astrid rolled her eyes, "yes you do. He wants you, Carla. You have no idea. He's just to fricken pussy to make a move."

Carla pressed her lips together, "I'm not making the first move."

She had alcohol in her system,but not enough to make a first move. Besides, if she did, all the things she'd been doing to get Silas to like her would be gone with the wind. There was no way she's making the first move.

"Why not?" Astrid took another gulp of the Vodka shot.

"Because... I'm not sure if he feels that way towards me."

Astrid laughed, "Carla, I notice these things when I drink. You guys want each other."

She wasn't lying. At least not on Carla's part.

Carla stood to leave, this conversation wasn't something she ever thought she'd have with anyone. Especially with the sister of the guy she liked.

Astrid grabbed her hand, "if you ask him, I'll ask your brother."

Carla's eyebrows cocked, glancing at her brother, "seriously, my brother? Of all the people?"

"Yeah, I've thought about it before. Besides, it's his birthday."

Carla sat back down.

"Ask him right now, I'll ask Sam," putting her cup down, Astrid waited for a response.

"I don't think I can," but she wanted to. Carla really wanted to.

"Just ask him if he wants to go to your room, if your sister isn't in there with Colin."

"She's not, they left."

"Good, ask him."

Carla sighed, glancing at Silas. He looked really good today. Haircut. Nice black pants, not those worn out faded ones he always wore. She looked at her brother then.

He was a cute guy and all. But he had the confidence the size of a blueberry. It's his eighteenth birthday and he's barely ever talked to girl.

Hooking up with Astrid would be good for him, confidence booster, and he knows her pretty well so it wouldn't be that awkward.

"And I'm not just asking you to hook up with my brother so I can hook up with yours. Sam's cute, and funny. I actually wanted to ask him before."

Carla was considering it.

"Okay," she answered after a period of silence. "I'll do it. Later."

Astrid smiled, "pinky promise?"
They locked pinkys.

OOO
