The ride back to Paris' home was silent. When Camoran pulled up to the driveway, he looked at Paris who was looking sad.

                                                                                    Camoran

                                                                                   Are you okay?

                                                                                            Paris

Um...yeah. Ruth reminds me of my grandma. She used to give the biggest hugs. She was my best friend besides Lexi and my mom. She died about a year ago.

                                                                                    Camoran

                                                              Oh, I'm sorry about your grandma.

                                                                               Paris

                                                            Oh, it's fine. I'm fine.

                                                                     Camoran

You never get over your loved ones. My dad left us when I was two. He was a jerk for doing that. My sister wasn't even born.

Paris pats Camoran's shoulder.

                                                                          Paris

                                                  I'm sorry about your dad.

                                                                 Camoran

                                         You are a blessing to me Paris.

                                                                  Paris

                              (looking at camoran) Oh, you just said that!

                                                              Camoran

I'm in love with you, Paris. I know it's been a few weeks since I met you, but I'm in love with you.

Paris started crying. Camoran brushes his hand on her cheek.

                                                              Paris

                                                   I'm speechless.

Their lips meet. His lips were soft, gentle. Paris appreciated that his lips were gentle and tender.

                                                             Paris

                                           Well, I better get going.

                                                        Camoran

                                              Okay, I'll call you later.

Paris gets out of the truck and waves at Camoran. He waves back.
