"wanna share one of those with me?" eddie asks hopping out of the boat. i pull one out of the pack and hand it to him, his fingers brush mine as he takes it. i feel my cheeks warm a bit and eddie ducks his head down to meet my eyes.

he gasps excitedly "did i make mollie buckley blush?" he puts his elbow on the table and leans to the side a bit "one point for me" he says playfully laughing to himself.

i stay quiet and sit on the table as i light my cigarette and smoke it. as i exhale the smoke and smile at eddie "and a smile! there we go!" he says raising his voice with a clap "i always smile" i protest.

he hops up and sits next to me while swinging his feet "you haven't like that since we've been here- since i dragged you into this" he corrects as he takes the lighter from my hands

"don't do that, please" i look over to him and he nods his head as he watches his cigarette burn down a bit "we never got to hang out at the spot you know" he takes a puff of his cigarette

"i would have taken that over what happened that night" he says putting his cigarette out "me too" i whisper and frown to myself "but once we clear our names and aren't wanted anymore" he hops down with a sigh

"we can have that night, i promise" he says bowing and holding a hand up "was that you promising?" i ask laughing "yeah was it good enough? i can bow on my knees and promise some more-" i get down and cut him off by kissing him

"just in case we don't have our night.. i wanted to do that" he smiles down at me and puts a hand on my cheek as he kisses me again "who would have thought, right? eddie and mollie sittin' in a shed k-i-s-s-"

"stop!" i laugh and start throwing cereal at him from the box. he uses his arms to shield him "alright alright!" he says through a laugh "i wonder how long it's gonna be before they get back"

eddie says loosing hope, it's starting to get dark out "probably not till tomorrow..." i say with my eye lids getting heavy. eddie sits next to me on the floor "you can sleep tonight, i'll be right here" he says crossing his legs together. i rest my head on his shoulder and drift off to sleep.
