Recollection (kinda on a sorta hiatus)

Health junkie

|Chapter 15|

As we pulled up to my house, I realized he had only been as far as my kitchen.

"You want to stay over for a bit? We could do homework too, or watch a movie. Whatever?" His face lit up and I smiled.

"Yeah, that sounds good."

"Well alright let's go." I hopped out of his truck and searched my bag for my house key. Once I found it, I led him to the living room and turned to head up the stairs.

"You can pick out a movie, i'll be right back." I suggested over my shoulder. I went into my room and threw on a hoodie instead of my tight shirt and scarf. I walked downstairs to find Caden raiding my fridge, I should've figured.

"It's mostly healthy foods, just an FYI." He groaned and turned around.

"You and I, we have different food tastes for snacks." I laughed and grabbed fruit from the fridge, cleaning it and tossing it in a bowl.

"Want any?" He wrapped his arms around my waist and nodded into my neck.

"I'm starving so it'll have to do." I craned my neck up to his lips and gave him peck on the lips.

"Come on, to the couch we go."

"You know, you have always been a health junkie." My mouth gaped open at him.

"Have not."

"Oh, but you have. Always had fruit and vegetables, you never ate fast food, or drank soda." I just rolled my eyes, huffed and began to defend myself.

"Well I'm not that bad anymore."

"So you agree? You were at least a health junkie then." I shook my head.

"Whatever makes you happy princess then yes." We didn't do homework or study at all, we watched tv and a couple movies. Caden ate most of the fruit, I will be sure to rub that in his face later.

"It's really late, I should go baby." I tightened my grasp on his torso at the thought of him leaving.

"No, can you stay." I pleaded with him, curling up around him.

"Okay, but do you have a toothbrush? I prefer not to have cavities." I snorted and got up going to find one for him. Once I did I gave it to him and took him to my bathroom. I put toothpaste on mine and he held out his, once we were both done brushing I took off my makeup and met him on my bed. I had switched to a loose t-shirt instead of my hoodie, because his body radiates enough heat, and I don't need to have a heat stroke. I kissed him goodnight and intertwined our fingers by his head, half of my body over his. We had slept together, multiple times, but in the most innocent and sweet way possible. I couldn't think of any possible better way to spend my nights and days.

We had woken up kind of late and still had to drop by Caden's house on the way, so I threw on a cute outfit that he picked for me while I tamed by hair and applied a little makeup. We had gotten to his house with more time than anticipated so we hung around for a little and had breakfast.

"So you liked the fruit yesterday huh?" I picked now to start teasing his because why not?

"Oh, be quiet. Of course I liked it, I always have. I just like teasing you more." He grinned, obviously satisfied with his answer.

"Uh, thanks for staying over last night." We had sat on the couch and I was playing with his hands.

"Love, I couldn't possibly have said no."

"Gosh let's get to school ya cheesy." He slapped a hand over his heart and dropped his chin.

"You love my cheesiness don't lie." I shook my head and let out a sigh,

"Hmm, maybe I do but I couldn't possibly admit it, that adds to the list of reasons to fall for you. And we just can't have that."

"Aww, and why not?"

"Yeah, yeah let's go, start the car." We were the cute couple in school, we were always together and everyone wanted a relationship like ours. I soaked up the attention and a soon as I realized homecoming had come around. Caden and I had gone shopping and got my dress and all of his stuff. It was finally homecoming week and I was nervous for whatever stupid reason, it was homecoming. How big could it be? Not too big right, that's what I could hope.

As the week rolled by we dressed up and it was finally the game. Caden bought us tickets and I wanted to do the paint stuff I always see, so we went to my house so I could do it. I threw on a school jacket and some ripped jeans, sliding on my converse as we walked out the door. I locked the door and he started up the car, quickly getting us to the game so we could have decent seats. Although he knew I refused to sit in the student section, as I stated on the way. I have no idea how they stand the whole time even if the bleachers hurt your butt after a while. I had learned that Caden really loved football and he could tell me everything that was happening.

"Why don't you play? I can tell you really love it, you'd probably be amazing."

"I never really got into playing, but I love standing on the sidelines and calling out plays, or talking about it. Football isn't my general area when in comes to being on the field."

"Oh, do you play sports then?"

"Occasionally baseball and sometimes basketball but not all the time, I mainly stick to the gym for a workout."

"Do you play any sports? Or like any?"

"I grew up watching just about all of them, but I stopped when my dad died. I forgot how much I actually like them." Somehow, something I will never begin to understand how he does it, Caden was so intently watching the game yet holding a conversation with me.

"Yeah, maybe we can watch some sometimes. Instead of our usual movies?" I shook my head,

"Yeah, that sounds good. Hey, how are you doing that?" He looked at me and raised his eyebrows,

"Doing what?" Turning his head back to the game I leaned my head on his shoulder.

"You are so focused on the game, but you are holding a conversation really well."

"Oh that, I always watched sports and I'd be so focused on it Alec would get into something. So I had to be able to focus on two things at once, multitasking if you will." I didn't feel like speaking in response so I just shook my head and laced our fingers together.
