~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

   It's a good thing Sam has a car that your able to take the roof off so your able to let your hair blow in the breeze. So right now we have the music blaring tp Motsley Crue, my hairs blowing in the wind and I have my hand outside the car doing the waveacting like a fool with my shades on. Sam has his shades with a grin on his face, his dimple on his right cheek showing and it really suites or completes his look. So far today is going great! Who was that jerk from yesterday? Carl? Bob? Who cares! My life is back on track and I have my best friend beside me, life couldnt be better.

  As we pull into the park we see the parking lot is full of cars, the park is packed with kids on the swings, parents texting, teens playing frisbee on the fields, and toddlers feeding the geese by the lake. The park looks beautiful in the spring time, since the trees are blooking, flowers are showing there colorful petals along with the birds singing there songs. We grasp eachothers arm and head off towards the swings, we kick a couple of kids off the swings but all their parents did was glare at us, who cares if its a glare. We chuckle and start swinging. "So Sam, how have you been besides you and Erica?" I say while pumping my feet to get some air so i can go higher. "Well... Its been good, long but good. I've moved to a couple different bases since we last saw each other but Im staying at this one till I get shipped out in a couple months. Other wise I've been good with life, unlike you probably who is a lazy person and can't hold a job for more then a day and will become one of those hobo's who I will give a dollar to on the side of the road. I'll be like, 'Oh! arnt you that one girl who i used to be friends with?'" He laughs, while he is laughing I swing over and push him off the swing. He lands softly since he didnt have far to fall he scouffs in shock and kicks me off mine. I'm on my butt while he's on his back and were just looking at each other for a few till we started throwing sand at eachother. This carried on for a good ten minutes until i was covered in sand, i had it all up and down me, "Sam!  Chill out on the sand dude! Its everywhere on me, in my bra and in my hair. Its going to be a pain to get out." He smirks at me, pulls me into him and lifts his eyebrow while saying. "well... I could help with that." I blush tomato red and push him away, "you wish player!" "Sometimes, yes I do. Others I realize your a pain and rethink our friendship." I playfully punch him then walk away like I'm mad, he normally says that everytime we hangout so its nothing new. I just wish he liked me so when he says things like that I know he means them... By now I'm subconsciencly walking to the lake not hearing Sam calling my name, then suddenly............ BAM!!!!!!!!!!!!! I get knocked out by a frisbee. A freaking frisbee hits my head, this is just great.

   When I awak from being knocked out, I awake in Sams' lap surrounded by the frisbeeplayers. Ten guys huddling up around me whispering "she's awake", "oh I'm glad she is alive", along with some other ramblings my head just couldnt process the different loudness of each voice or what they were saying, all I knew was is that I was pissed. I hate getting hit, especially since I didnt see it coming, well I believe most people would feel the same about that... but that is not the point. I push all the guys away they seem to get the idea that I needed space and went along with it, I'm now standing up leaning into Sam about to yell at all the guys for hitting a girl or throwing the damn thing when there is clearly a person walking in that direction when a guy starts apologizing to me, I am assuming he is the one to hit me, "Ma'am I'm so sorry, I did not see you there. If you would like I can give you 2 free movie tickets at the cinema across the street is that ok? My father owns it and I am sure he would say yes to this agreement." I nodd and say, "thank you for apologizing and stepping up like a real man. Next time look where your throwing please? I will also stop by and pick up those tickets later, thank you and have a nice day. If this happens again I wont be so nice about it." On that note, I started to finish my walk towards the lake. Although... I should get his in the head some more to get more free movie tickets, this way I'll never have to spend money at a cinema ever again. Great plan I just don't want all the head trauma.

   I lay down on Sams chest while he's holding me making sure I'm awake if I have a concusion. Besides the killer headache I can tan perfectly in these shorts and tank top. I chuckled to myself while getting stared at from strangers, eh who cares there strangers what are they going to do about it? I just got hit in the head I can say its brain trauma. "Whats so funny Elle?" Sam says to me, "I'm tanning without knowing or meaning too." "Oh, your weird you know that?" "You tell me everday or when you get the chance too. So yeah, I do know that." He laughs and rubs my arms while I watch the kids who were once feeding the geese, now get chased by them. I want to say we were like this for an hour just holding or cuddling each other and watching the sunset now. I can honestly say its beautiful, the way the orange, pink, purple, blend into the sky and each other surrounded by the bright sun. Its a breathe taking expeirence when you watch it down by the lake or anywhere else for that matter. I get up and wipe the sand from the lake beach off of me and help Sam get up. He wipes himself off, I turn to walk towards his car wen he pulls me back and kisses me pationatly. I stand there in shock for a second then kiss him back, I wrap my arms around his neck while he wraps his around my waist while pulling me into him. Our bodies pressed up against each other for what seems like the longest time till we break for air. How I've wanted this kiss so badly, finally happy till it ends and he tells me he didnt mean it. Why did I kiss back? He doesnt even like me like that, why kiss me at all then? "You ass whole!!! You know I like you why tease or play with my emotions like this?" He came back with, "I know how I said I don't like you like that, I lied. Elle I'm crazy about you! I've been like this since three years ago but I was with Erica and we were both constantly moving and never saw each other for long. Were pretty awesome friend, great chemisrty and! We already act like a couple. What do you say Elle?" I just want to smile and jump in his arms and kiss him up and down for saying that to me. On the other hand I could kill him for playing with my heart for three years and being with that jerk in that time period. Why does this have to happen now you know? I almost hook up with a manwhore last night and now my best friend who I'm in love with confesses his love to me? My life cant get any simpiler then this. "You have some guts telling me this after this morning Sam. I dont honestly know what to do. I love you and you know that but do you honestly want to commit now?" "Elle if I didnt want to I wouldnt be here right now." Why is this so hard for me to believe? Should I be questoning his motives? He's my friend, why should I should I question them, I'm just upset still from last night. I dont  want to rush into things so quickly im acting like my sister or someone else with all these boys. I shake my head and walk backwards telling him no, "sam i love you but im not ready to ruin this friendship right now nor am i willing to think that you are truely into me. Lets just rethink this entire matter maybe in a couple months when I know for sure that im staying in this town or for the fact that i know your not just going to leave for another base or when your time comes to leave that you just wont pick up and leave and I will never see you again. I just, I just dont want to think of myself as Em who goes changes guys every day. I want someone to commit to, not someone who i can rely on for a few minutes then leave the next. Its not going to work for me, if you truely say you love me or what ever, prove to me Sam, prove your love to me."

    On that note i left him there to think about what I said, I hope he lets it sink in not just rush up to me and tell me what he thinks I want to hear because then I will just have to kick his ass then. As im walking back to the swings since its still to early to go home along with me not wanting to see Emily when i get there, i believe the swings is a smart idea to clear my head. On my way back to the swings something shiny catches my eye, its not the fact that its shiny just the fact that the glare from what ever object it is is shinning in my eyes and I almost get frisbeed in the face AGAIN! Luckily I dodge the frisbee and look to my right to see where the glare is coming from. Looks to be a shiny container cover for food, someone is having a picnic. When I look up from the container to the person who is holding to container, the glare from the container and from the sun blocks my view from the person. So I put my hand up over my face so the glare is off of my face, when my eyes slowly focus on the person I recall that it is Tom. From what looks of it to his imediate right is.... OMG its my sister. My sister and Tom are on a picnic date with his buddies who I am now seeing. I just want to scream or faint, kick someones ass or just run away. Im full of emotions not knowing which one I should feel. As I am saying this Tom sees me, and from what looks like it he is either getting up to switch side so he doesnt have to see me or he is getting up to walk towards me. Im just hopeing its the first choice.....
