I looked at the clock and counted the minutes until the bell rang. It seemed like forever. Finally I heard it, the sound of freedom. I packed up my bags and practically ran home. As soon as I got through the door, I started cleaning and making preparations. Tonight she would be coming over and it all had to be perfect. I looked at my watch. It read 3:30pm. Two more hours until she got here I thought. I raced around my house, dusting here and tiding there. Once that was done, I got into the shower and change into some nicer clothes. Before I knew it my door bell rang. " Coming!" I yelled. I walked down the stairs and opened the door. There she was. My best friend and the one I love. I smiled and said," Hey, come on in." Grace walked in and set her things down by the door. " Thanks for letting me stay the night tonight Paige." She said with a small smile. " No problem. Here let me take this up to my room." I carry her bags up the stairs and set them down on my floor. " Wow nice room."
" Thanks. It gets the job done. " I laugh a little. " So what do you wanna do first?" I ask. She thinks for a moment. " Let's play a board game."
" Okay. I have Life, just let me go get it." I walk back down the steps and into my garage. I find the game and bring it back up to my room. We set up the game and begin to play. " Okay so I'm the red and you can be green. " I say taking out the pawns. " Oh fine, but I'm gonna kick your ass!" She giggles. An hour has passed and the game finally ends. Of course I end up winning. " See I knew it. I knew I was gonna win!" I say teasing her. Grace throws her pieces at me playfully. " Oh shut up. I hungry, let's go eat." We walk down stairs and into the kitchen. I pull out some Mac and Cheese and begin to make it. Soon it's ready and we eat. " You sure are quite the chef." She said. " Oh please. It not that hard to cook this." I scuff. " Hun, I burn water!" We both laugh. Once finished, I clean up the dishes and we head back upstairs. By this time it's around 11:00 pm and we decide it's time for pjs and bed. " The bathroom is right around the corner if you wanna change in there." I say, trying to be polite. " What's the big deal? We're both girls aren't we?" She says matter oh factly. I shrug and peal off my top and bottoms. She does the same. I look at her and blush a little at the sight of her bear skin. I put my tank top and shorts and climb into bed. She puts in her sheer night gown and crawls in next to me. " Nice pjs. There're cute." She says. "Thanks. I like yours too. " I say, blushing a little because I can see her nipples poke through the dress. She must have seen my face because she reached across and put a stray hair behind my ear. Thus making me blush even deeper. " Why are you blushing?" She asks. " I-I don't know." I say shyly. " Oh okay so if I do this.." She stokes my face gently, making be go red. " See n-nothing." I say nervously. "Mmmhmm" she hums. She scooted closer to me and we are inches apart. So close I can feel her breath on my face. " What if I just.." Grace then moves her lips go as close to mine as she can without them touching. " Kiss you?" She whispers. " Why are you doing this? If you know how I feel, why mess with me?" I say this without moving away. " Maybe because I like you the same way." She whispers and looks into my eyes. " Then kiss me." I say quietly. And she does. Grace closed to tiny gap in between us and we kissed. It felt magical. Like nothing in the world was bad. I never wanted it to end. But sadly all things must. She parted away and turns to drift off to sleep and so did I. It never went anywhere after that. To this day I still don't know why, but I will never forget that night. The night when I knew what real love felt like.
