It All Began With You

YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL

A first date will be cracking sidewalks and watery sunshine that struggled past the clouds. It has made several loops of their block, how many neither of them can recall. On the first few circuits the talk will be shy, almost becoming familiar and then each of them backing away. Another few circuits and it will know more about one another than many members of their own family, then fingers entwined in a loose grip. On the final loop around they pull close into a kiss that stopped all their anxious thoughts dead in their tracks and then both knew in that instant they had found their other half and that fate had handed them a dangerous hand...Well this is how important a first date is for me. 

Rumours had spread as fireballs some like Dane breaking up with Mackenzie and I instantly felt interwine with the thought of finally gaining someone that I liked but that was a far thought. 

I looked at my watch for the fifth time, I've been waiting here for almost an hour. I can't wait anymore, maybe I should go pick him up. I don't even know if he got any of the plans we made. So I go down the vacant school corridoor. I just hope no one sees me as that might get me grounded for the rest of the week.

Suddenly he touches my shoulder and I almost jump away from him. There wasn't anyone behind me even a while ago. He gives me a smile as I turn towards him. 

"Where were you?" I ask.

 He rubs his fist on his chest to say that he is sorry. He wants to explain and I want to hear everything but that's not happening now. I don't know sign language much, yet. So I let him wrap his arms around me. My hand reaches the back of his head and I take the cap off his head to discover a fresh bruise on the left side of his forehead.

 "What happened?" I ask. 

He just shakes his head but his eyes turn glossy as he tries to fight the weak part of him which wants to talk to me.

"I, well got into a fude between some boy who hates my guts!" he replied innocently but clearly hearing his anger in his voice

"Was it Brandon?" I asked and he suddenly tensed up as if i had hit his nerve

"Yes it was, don't worry about that, it will heal, should we get going?" he claimed and I noded in agreement.

With ankles crossed and my knees leaning against the center console, I watch Dane slide into the driver's seat, starting the engine with the push of a button. I want to touch him and run my fingers through his hair. Rubbing my hands together, I force them into submission. Observing his movements, a sigh escapes my lips. I adore the subtle tilt of his head when he turns onto the road. Every movement seems as though he's planned it out ahead of time. Feeling a chill, I rub my arms. He looks so irresistable as the light beams in through the car window. He catches my eye.

" Summers, checking me out?" He chuckled and grinned

Oh this is perfect, beautiful moment as I still fill the glint in his eyes when he sees me.

"Who wouldn't" I said, abit stunned my self.

Exhaling, I flop back on the car seat in the hot afternoon sun and close my eyes. Now what to do about Dane? That is the question that hovers like a fire breathing dragon in my thoughts. My heart flickers just thinking about him. I know he likes me, I can sense it every time we look at each other. But, I have to be realistic and get my life together or I'm going to be stuck at mom's longer than I want. I can't keep running. And, I can't get all wrapped up in the thought of being with another guy who is going to save me. Yeah, easy to say, the dragon in my head spews a line of fire at the part of my brain that sends tingles through my body when I think of Dane. These saviours in my life are like my addiction. 

"This weather is amazing, what do you say Summers?" humming in his melodious voice

"It is beautiful" I answered

"You are beautiful," he says under his breath and I act by not hearing it as I blush at what he thought. If he asks about the reddened face, I will blame it on the sun.

"What? Did you say anything?" I lie as I grin at him

"Huh, oh nothing, I said it is beautiful, ya I said that," he claimed and I smirk and chuckle a little.

"It seems you are reassuring yourself then me!" I replied.

"Your playing with me Summers and I know that!" he commented

"HAHA, why do call me Summers, you know I have a first name?" I asked anxiously. I knew he calls me that sweetly but I wanted to hear it coming from his mouth. 

"Well...it is the summer so why not?" he replied very cleverly.

"Hmmm what will you call me in the winter, or the spring or autumn?" I requested

"Well, I will call you Summers because I will be longing for you.. uh I mean the summer, obviously!" he chuckles embarrassed. We pull infront of Starbucks and park it near a greenary, planning to have a coffee picnic date!
