I throw my backpack to the side and call for Milo and he comes trotting over to me. I attach the leash to his collar and as I was doing so he gave me a big lick on the face. I laugh and kiss him back.
"Come on let's go for a walk." I tell my dog and he wags his tail and barks. I open the front door and we both run out and Dylan was standing there between our driveways waiting for us. Milo sees him and immediately attacks him with kisses and Dylan starts laughing and I laugh too. Milo then knocks Dylan onto the grass and continues his kiss assault, which makes me topple over next to them. Milo goes back and forth between Dylan and I giving us his doggy kisses and we continue to laugh.
Finally when Milo ran out of kisses, Dylan and I wipe our faces off so there's not any traces of slobber on them, and we look at each other and laugh.
"I thought I was going to be licked to death." He says to me.
"Yeah well Milo only does that to people he thinks are smelly and people he doesn't like. So he either thinks you're smelly or he doesn't like you." I smile.
"Me smelly? I happen to think I smell pretty damn good."
"Oh believe me I know." I say to him and lean in a little.
"And that dog loves me. Wait you know?" Dylan smirks and he leans in too.
"Mhmm." I say and kiss him because hey I can do that now.
Midway into the kiss I smile and he pulls away.
"What?" He smiles.
"Nothing. I'm just really happy."
He pushes a loose strand of my hair behind my ear and smiles, "Me too." He says and gives me one last peck on the lips then stands and holds his hand out for me to grab. "C'mon let's take Milo for that walk."
We walk down the street with my left hand intertwined with Dylan's and my right hand holding Milo's leash. We reach the open field and Milo started getting excited. Dylan started running and Milo ran after him practically dragging him me behind, but I didn't mind. Doing this made me forget about my past, and that makes me happy.
We've been running back and forth for a half an hour when we decided it was time to head back. Dylan and I were exhausted and even Milo was too.
We slowly made our way back to our houses and I see that both my parents' cars are parked in our driveway.
"Looks like my parents are home. I should go." I tell him.
"Ok, I'll text you later." He turns his face, wanting me to give him a kiss on the cheek. As I'm about to do so he quickly turns his head and meets my lips. We break away and we both smile. I walk away and our fingers come apart and before I open my front door I look back at Dylan and he's still standing where I left him with that goofy smile on his face. I mouth bye and he waves.
I walk in my front door and I close it behind me. I take off Milo's leash and he runs into the kitchen. Seconds later my phone dings, notifying me that I got a text message. I take my phone out and see it's from Dylan.
Dylan: It's later (;
Me: Very funny
I lock my phone and smile. I turn my head and I see that both of my parents standing in the living room watching me.
"You and Dylan seem to be getting along really well." My dad says.
"Were you watching us?" I ask them.
"We are just concerned Kacey. Are you really ready to be in a relationship after what happened to you?" My mom asks me.
"Honestly, I haven't even really thought about it since I met him. He makes me forget about it. He makes me so unbelievably happy, it's insane. He introduced me to these two amazing people today who I instantly connected with, and it's all thanks to him." I say smiling.
"Well we just want you to be happy, and if Dylan makes you happy, then we're happy." My mom says and hugs me and my dad joins the group hug too.
"Thank you." I say in the middle of our group hug.
Dad kisses the top of my head. "Of course sweetie."
"We'll call you when it's time for dinner Kacey." Mom says.
"Ok, I'll be up in my room."
I run up the stairs and into my room and jump in my bed. I lay there on my back with a huge smile on my face when my phone dings once again. I expect it to be Dylan, but when I look at my phone I see it's from Tate.
Tate: Heard the news! You go girl!
Me: Haha thanks! Obviously Dylan told you?
Tate: Yep and he told Tyler too, so expect a congratulatory text from him too.
Me: Dang he works fast
And with that, that conversation ended, and my phones dinged again, this time from Tyler.
Tyler: Ayyyy Kacey! Finally it happened! OTP
OTP
Me: Oh my god Tyler haha
I was called down for dinner so I didn't have time to carry on the conversation right now. We eat dinner having continuous conversations about my first day of school. I tell them about Tyler and Tate and talk to them more about Dylan and how I feel like the four of us are already like best friends.
After dinner I got back up to my room and go back to texting my two friends and my boyfriend. Boyfriend. I smile at the thought. I have been smiling so much lately my mouth is actually starting to hurt.
The conversations carry on late into the night until I drift asleep and with no surprise I fall asleep with a smile on my face.
