Secrets

Chapter Five

Saturday 7AM

I woke up to the sound of murmured conversation. I walked down stairs in my pajamas and surprise surprise it was Michelle and Sammy. Everyone turned to me. "Good Morning Dearest" Michelle said. "Hey, uh good morning" I said as i poured a cup of coffee. "What are you guys doing here?" I was completely embarrassed as I stood in front of Sammy in my pj's. "Well your mother called us this morning with a brilliant idea. She said you could show Sammy around town." Michelle smiled and looked at my mother. "Of course" I said sipping coffee wondering what the hell I just got myself into.

Saturday 3PM

Sammy and I were at my favorite food truck eating and talking. "So tell me Sammy where are you from? You sure don't have an American accent." I asked while taking a bite of my burger. "England, the accent is noticeable?" he chuckled. "very" I replied. "What a shame, i worked on it for weeks before we moved." we both laughed and finished eating. "So where to now?" he ask smiling. God, he's gorgeous. "I know a pretty cool place with some great ice cream." I smiled back. "That sounds amazing!" He jumped up and ran to the car. I laughed.

Saturday 6:30PM

We were on our way back to my house when I passed up the turn. "You passed the turn" Sammy said confused. " I know" I smiled. "Then where are we going?" He asked. "You'll see."

Saturday 6:35PM

We parked at the bottom of the hill and I turned off the engine. "You're not gonna kill me are you?" he asked seriously. "and if I am?" I got out of the car and began to walk with Sammy trailing my foot steps. The sun was setting and it looked amazing. We walked to the top of the hill and I sat down. "My, it's beautiful up here" he stood staring at the view. "It is, isn't it?" I laid on the grass and sighed. Sammy laid beside me. "How did you find this place?" he asked. I knew I couldn't tell him the truth. He'd think I was crazy. "My best friend used to bring me here before she moved away." I hated lying to him but what could I have done? Told him I found this place when I ran away from my drunken step father because he was trying to hurt me? " It's amazing" he turned his head to me and I turned to him. We stared into each others eyes and before I knew it our lips were locked.
