Meanwhile, Life Goes On

Chapter 6

I woke up to an empty bed and the sun shining through my camo curtains. I looked around the room and realized I was alone. I laid there for about 5 minutes and then slowly sat up. After a few minutes I was standing on my feet. I looked in my mirror and saw myself dressed in only a camo sports bra and a pair of matching camo spandex. I figured I had better put some clothes on. I put a pair of shorts on over top the spandex and grabbed a tshirt. I started putting it on as I walked down the steps. Well it was a cut off shirt, and I was kinda glad I grabbed it because it was hotter than Haiti down here. When I arrived in the kitchen, I noticed Allen sitting on the stool. When I got to him, he patted his lap so I climbed up on his lap. He grabbed my long mocha colored hair and pulled it gently out of my shirt. I had just got my hair done the week before, with caramel highlights and I love it! Allen read my thoughts and said "I really love your hair like this." As he braided my hair. I taught him how to braid because I love the way he plays with my hair. "Well thank you!" I replied with, in a cheerful voice. He moved his mouth close to my ear, and said, "and I really love how those shorts hug your hips." All I did was giggle and then pop walked in. "What's going on in here?" He playfully asked. "Oh nothing, just talking" I replied. I got up and asked if Allen wanted any cereal, when he said yes, I grabbed another bowl, poured milk and cereal into them, got two spoons, and served one bowl to him, and sat the other one in front of me. It didn't take long until we both finished our cereal, and he grabbed our bowls and put them in the dishwasher. I asked pop where Mamaw was and he said she ran to the store which was about an hour down the road since we live in the middle of nowhere. I really like it though because we don't have to worry about anything. "Pop we are going to go down to the lake for a little while. We will be home in a couple hours." "Okay that's fine. Be careful" and just like that me and Allen walked down to the lake, hand in hand. I love the way his hand fit into mine. It's like they are meant to be together. "How did you sleep last night princess?" "I slept great! How about you?" "I slept wonderful, especially since I had you right by my side!" "Im glad that I had you by me too!" We made it to the lake. I walked in the lake and Allen grabbed my arm and said "wait, shouldn't we sit out here first?" I didn't understand but I turned around and sat down in the grass. We talked for a little while, and then we started joking around. I put my hands on his face and then we kissed. We started slow. Our lips moved against each other. He pulled my shirt over my head and we walked into the water and I wrapped my legs around his waist. We swam in the water for about 30 minutes. In the afternoon, the air gets really cold, so we got out, he put his shirt on. That was amazing!" He said. "I know, but I was getting cold." He put me on his back, and we went up to the house. I was only wearing my soaking wet sports bra and my now wet running shorts. Mamaw saw us coming up the hill beside the house and she came out the door. "Where are your clothes at?" I knew she was kidding, this is what I always wear here. "Oh you're lucky I have this much on." I could tell by the look on her face she knew I was kidding too. "Ellie May!" "Mamaw you know I was kidding!" Allen puts me down, and we all three go inside. We both go upstairs, and change our clothes. Allen has his own dresser in the spare bedroom because he has always stayed here, just never with me. I'm so glad that he was. When we get to the top of the stairs, he grabs me from behind, and turns me to face him and kisses me on the nose. He goes and gets his clothes and comes into my room without knocking like always. I was in nothing but my black lace panties. I immediately turn the other way and put my bra and talk top on. When I turn around to get a dry pair of shorts, I see Allen sitting on the bed staring at me. "Allen, do you have to stare at me?" "Why wouldn't I? You're the most gorgeous girl on the planet!" "Why thank you!" I opened my door and heading down stairs, with Allen right behind me.
