My Love Project

Chapter seven

¨So you want to tell me your real name?¨ I asked as he turned on the car, he smiled and music played from a station i didn't know it, as he pulled onto the road, the sun was already setting ¨Maybe, what have you have been calling me in your head?¨He looked at the road
¨Who says you've been in my head?¨I smirked, and finally said ¨Fill in Josh¨ He smiled at me and said ¨Wow, inventive¨

¨Come on and provide me with a name¨I said
He hummed ¨Hmm..¨
¨Do you want to be fill in Josh forever?¨I joked
¨Yes¨
I laughed and hit his chest playfully, after many hits he grabbed my hand and squeezed it then let go ¨Funny. We have a while maybe you should guess my name¨He suggestions
¨Fine. So like twenty questions?¨I asked
He nodded and turned down the background music on the radio
¨Does it start with A?¨ i asked, he smiled and said no ¨Hmm….can it be a place?¨ I asked thinking
¨Explain.¨
¨So like Dallas,Diego, Francisco, get it?¨
¨Yes¨ He said ¨No it isn't a place¨ He admitted
I thought for a minute, as he drove ¨Who named you?¨I asked
¨My mom named me, she named me after her favorite musician, she really liked him and my mom plays guitar at church, irrelevant but that's how my mom met my religious dad, she performed a gospel song and was in the choir.¨ he explained
¨Oh, who was the musician?¨ I asked sneakily
¨Kyle, wait….you cheater¨He joked and played as if mad,  i laughed and repeated
¨Kyle…..¨I said
¨Is it a depressing name?¨I asked, i shook my head ¨No, it's lovely¨I smiled.

We pulled on the side of a house, the house was big and people were everyone, he opened the door for me and i got out, he led me to a big, like huge backyard, and it was darker if anyone gone far and far back, he stopped when he saw a girl, she was short, her hair was brown and blonde at the ends, she was fit and had on a crop top and a skirt, she held hands with a guy who seen us and he pointed, she looked and smiled, and came over with the guy ¨Hi Kyle, i'm so glad you came here….and hi you¨She said to me too ¨Hi Re-renee...¨He was nervous and he obviously wanted her back but she was dating this guy, i could tell Kyle was upset but he didn't show it much, i grabbed his hand and he looked at me and smiled ¨Um, this is Emma¨Ḧe said then added ¨My girlfriend¨

What? Well, i guess i did have to act tonight
¨Hi, im Renee i'm glad you...came¨She smiled innocently and walked away ¨I'm so sorry, i¨He began to say
¨It's fine Kyle, i understand¨I explained
¨Ÿou do? Thank you¨He picked me up and spun me around, then he grabbed my hand and as music played we picked up a plate and put food on it, and ate ¨Did you not see the burgers too?¨He asked as i was only eating french fries ¨I did, i don't eat bread, so i might as well not get the meat with it¨I smiled, he shook his head ¨Odd lil girl¨Ḧe joked
¨im 17, im not little¨I joked back, he smiled and slid his chair close, he grabbed a napkin from the center table and wiped ketchup from my corner lip, i had to keep reminding myself this is an act and that Renee might be watching, pretending to be a couple isn't my thing i guess, Renee and her boyfriend were dancing so i asked ¨Whos the guy?¨ i asked, his face went hard ¨My ex-friend, we played baseball together….he changed...he chose a girl over our friendship, it hurt but now i don't want to beat him senseless everytime i see him now¨He explained staring at the dark spaces of the backyard, i laughed ¨That's a step forward¨I said, he nodded and offered to throw away my away for me, when he left, Renee came and sat in his seat ¨HI¨i smiled
¨So you're Kyle´s girlfriend?¨She asked
¨Yes….¨
¨Oh, okay i'm Renee, if i haven't mentioned¨She smiled and walked away, she seems snobby and rude how did this even work with Kyle and Renee. He came back and sat ¨My brain is immature right now¨He says
I looked confused and went on ¨I don't want to take this too fast, i was here to get closure but i heard what she said to you, Emma, if it's okay with you, i'm on board to make her jealous¨He explained
I smiled ¨I am too, i'm okay with it, i'm aware and here to help¨When i said that he smiled and he hugged me
¨You ready to make her jealous?¨He held his hand out i smiled and took it ¨Totally¨
He led me to the dark area, where less people were, ¨Where are we going??¨I asked
¨It's fine, there is this private place, her seeing this will drive her crazy jealous¨Ḧe said, i nodded.
When we got far back were just trees i was confused until he split two trees aside and there was this small bridge that was over a small pond, on the other side of the bridge was a big gazebo, there were dimmed lights and a porch swing, I smiled, this was beautiful ¨Woah¨I said, he smirked
¨Beautiful right??¨ He asked, we sat on the porch swing and i let my feet up as the swing swung slowly, my head laid on his shoulder and his arm were around me ¨Your sister is...¨I started
¨Cruel? I know¨He smiled
¨Ï was going to say a little evil, but she tried to help you¨I said
¨Yeah, i know, i'm thankful for her sometimes, thanks for coming too¨He said as the swing almost stopped but he kept it going
¨I'm sorry about your girlfriend….¨I said
¨Dont be, and she´s not my girlfriend, i just wanted to come, i wanted to...¨He trailed off
¨You don't have to finish i understand, anyway, graduation is kind of far away, why she have hers early?¨ I asked, i could feel him shrug ¨She is super smart so she might leave early plus she likes to travel so she probably go somewhere foreign¨Ḧe explained. The silence was killing me that i started to hum, when i looked at him he was staring at me i mumbled a what and he shook his head, he was so close that any shifting would cause to close the space, i wanted to kiss him, did he want to kiss me? What if this is part of the act too? He leaned down so close, until branches shuffling interrupted ¨Kyle?¨It was Renee´s stupid voice, i moved back and placed my feet so they were having, she came surprised ¨Oh sorry, um Hunter´s here¨She said
He looked up happily ¨Really??¨ He got up and practically ran, me following behind, how did she know where to find us? Oh right she seen us
