sure she was all right she was concerned and didn't know what was happening. Charlotte looked into the car at Jill, she had a smile on her face and Charlotte's fear waned. Jill got out of the car, "Yeah we should go home now my mom is going to kill me. I should have been home an hour ago." Jill was walking over toward Grey. She took his hand and said, "Let's see how it goes. I do like you but you pissed me off, I am giving you a chance to redeem yourself. I hope that you take it; I really think that you are worth it." Jill was looking right in his eyes when she said that. Charlotte was a little confused she didn't know what the hell was going on. All she knew was that she just got Mike to make out with her for the last hour and a half.
    "If you don't mind I think it would be best if Mike took us home." Jill said, thinking that it would be best. She couldn't think right around Grey and right now she needed to do a lot of thinking.
    "Sure," Grey agreed. "Mike if you don't mind take the girls home and I will see you tomorrow." Grey sounded distant. Mike sure as hell didn't know what was going on but he was sure that Grey would tell him later. He ninja’d over to his car.
    "Stop that ninja stuff will you." Grey hated when he did that.

    The girls got in the car with Mike and they drove away Grey stood there watching them as they drove off. He stayed until he couldn't see them anymore then went back inside.

    He walked up stairs to his room and put some music on. It was times like these that he wished his dad were around to give him advice. His dad seemed to know everything, and always knew the right thing to say when Grey didn't know what to think. Grey took a shower and then went to sleep with plans for tomorrow. He knew that he could call his father but he knew that he had to do this one on his own.

    On the drive home it was pretty silent, Jill asked Mike to drop her off at home first. Jill told Charlotte that she would tell her everything tomorrow and not to worry everything was fine.
    "I'm glad that you two hit it off." Jill said as she was getting out of the car.
    "But Mike, if you break her heart I'll hurt you in ways you don't know." Jill was serious. Mike understood he felt the same way about her with Grey, but he didn't think it was a good time to mention it. Charlotte still confused watched her best friend walk into her house wondering what could have happened tonight between those two.

    Mike got to Charlotte's house and stopped the car. "I don't know what went on with those two. I have never seen Grey like that before he seemed; I don't know he seemed different." Mike was concerned.
    "I don't know either, but I will find out and let you know." Charlotte was still excited about tonight and everything that happened with Mike, she really liked him. They swapped phone numbers.
    "Hey on Friday night after school I want to take you out just the two of us. I want to show you something, and I just want you to know I really do like you. I don't want you to think that I'm just going to dump you, I like you a lot." Mike said seriously he knew that knight of old always had to prove their fidelity and he was going to do just that.
    "I like you too. I am really glad this happened." Charlotte was beaming inside and out. Mike got out of the car to walk her to the door. Even though they just made out he was timid to kiss her again so before she went in the door he asked. "Can I kiss you goodnight?"
    Charlotte smiled and thought that that was the nicest thing anyone has ever her asked her for. How could she say no?
    "Yes." She said under her breath. Mike leaned over and kissed her like he meant it.
    "I'll see you tomorrow after school." Mike said. As he turned away to leave he stumbled off the stairs of her porch. He turned around and Charlotte was laughing at him. He waved and got back into his car. On the way home he thought that he should call Grey but by the time he got into his house he decided to wait until tomorrow. He knew
