Am I Really Alone?

chapter 6

Promise ring (at the top)

3 months later

Its almost the end of September and Daniel and I have been dating for 3 months now.

He finally asked me to be his girlfriend after 3 weeks of going on dates.

So here we are now on his living room couch cuddling with his head in the crook of my neck as I watch TV.

If you were wondering, no we did not kiss yet or anything else other than kissing.

Can someone say waiting til marriage.

I continue to watch TV, when I feel him start to move. Then I feel his lips begin to kiss my neck.

Lately he has been really touchy feely, if that makes sense. I'm still new to all of this, it makes me feel weird.

"Umm Danny, what are you doing?"

He doesn't answer, but continues his assault until he reaches my ear.

"Ahhhhh...... Ahem, Daniel I think you should stop."

"Why?"

"You're making me feel weird and uncomfortable."

Don't get me wrong it felt good, but I'm not ready for that.

I bit my lip and put my head down.

"Don't be ashamed babe, I understand. If you don't want me to do something you don't like just tell me, okay?"

Then he lays back down in his spot.

"Okay. Are you mad at me?"

He then sits up and looks me in my eyes.

"No, I can never be mad at you. I understand, I crossed a line I wasn't supposed to. I'm fine with waiting until you are ready. It's your choice, that doesn't change how I feel about you. Okay?"

"Okay"

He then kisses my cheek.

I'm so in love with him it hurts. I'm just afraid he doesn't feel the same about me.

I want to tell him how I feel in that moment, but I keep my mouth shut.

Instead I say something else that has been on my mind lately.

"I think we should meet each other's parents."

He sits up quickly as if his butt is on fire.

"Why do you say that?"

He asked nervously playing with his fingers.

I look at him suspiciously

"Well, my parents want to see the guy that stole me away from them and they keep asking about you. So what do you say?"

"Well, I say umm..... Okay, I'll meet them. When?"

"Tonight."

"What!?"

"Yea, I knew you would agree so I told my parents you would come over Tonight. Please don't be mad."

"Oh, I'm not mad. I'm just thinking of a way to get you back."

With a mischievous smirk he grabs my waist and begins tickling me.

"Hahaha. Stop. Stop. I can't breathe."

"Oh no, what is the magic words."

"I don't know. Stop. Stop. I quit. Just tell me."

"Say 'Daniel is the best boyfriend ever'."
