Goodbye

First Date

I unlocked the front door to my house. As I walked in, it was, quiet because my family moved away without me when I was a freshman in high school, and now I'm a Junior. That tells you a lot about them. But nothing was going to ruin my happiness!!!

I ran into my room and flopped on my bed. I felt a huge smile creep up on my face. Wow. I can't believe it!!! I won't end up alone after all. I drifted off into a heavy daydream. I thought of us growing old together, us having kids. All these amazing thoughts that might finally come true.

I finally snapped out of my daydream and checked the clock. It was 7:50.......IT WAS 7:50!!!!! I wasn't prepared at all for this date!!!! I rushed out of bed and tried to find something to wear. The best outfit I had was a grey blouse and some skinny jeans.

I pulled on the outfit in a hurry, trying not to forget my grey hoodie on the way out. I ran all the way to the park (thank god I lived only 5 minutes away from it!) I checked my clock and I was 1 minute early. I looked around to try and look for him. He was sitting on the swing, obviously waiting for me. I walked over and sat down on the swing next to him.

"Hey." I saw him whip his head around to look at me with that beautiful pearly white smile of his. I couldn't help but smile back.

"You came, I brought dinner for us." Us, that word was a beautiful word. Us. I loved that word.

I sat down across from him as we ate dinner. It was nice. We finished dinner and he offered to walk me to my house.

"I just realized, I never asked what your name was." He stared at me, waiting for an answer.

"Um...my name is Echo." I was kind of waiting for him to mock my name as everyone else did.

"Echo, that's a beautiful name. My name is John. Not as unique as yours though." He smiled at me. He had a way of melting my heart.

He then decided to walk me home. We just walked and talked the whole time there. We were at the door of my house and it was extremely dark outside. Knowing we just met, I couldn't let him into my house.

"Thank you for the lovely evening John." He started at me with those lovely blue eyes of his.

"I would be glad to do it again." I noticed he had started moving closer to me. I saw him hesitating but he finally grabbed my hands and he pushed his lips against mine. I was shocked at first, but I closed my eyes and let our lips combine for a few minutes. We finally pulled back. Wow. It was all I dreamed of! He looked at me, waiting for me to say something. I was speechless.

He let go of my hands. "That was amazing." He said trying not to ruin the moment.

"Yeah." I stood there completely in love with him.

"I'll see you tomorrow." He said as he kissed me on the forehead and walked away.

"Yeah." I said to myself as he walked out of sight. I felt a smile appear on my face. I was in love.
