Dear Mr. Lahey

{ Bloom - The Paper Kites }

It had been 2 months with Isaac here and my room looked messier than ever. He had promised to try and keep it clean, but he didn't succeed. Clothes were spread on the floor and his schoolbooks laid in the corner of my room. I didn't really mind. I was happy that he was here with me and I was happy that we could spend our days together. At least I was sure that he was safe.
"Piper, shall we take a walk?" Isaac asked me and I looked up from my biology book. He was sitting in front of me and his fingers were tapping on the table. He waited for my answer and a sigh left my mouth. "Sure," I responded and stood up from the chair I was sitting on. We walked towards the frontdoor and I putted my jacket on. I also grabbed a scarf to protect myself from the cold. I opened the front door and left the house. Outside laid snow and everyone seemed to be really happy about it. Kids were running around, throwing snowballs at each other and some people were building a snowman. You could hear loud laughter and some screams. It made me happy. Winter had always been one of my favorite seasons, not only because of the snow, but also because of the holidays that were coming up. "Isaac?" I asked while walking next to him with a huge smile on my lips. "What's up?" He asked me. Some kids passed us. they were running after each other and I softly grinned. "What do you want to do this Christmas?" I asked him and he grabbed my hand. It was completely normal for us, we were best friends and we had done this loads of time. This simple gesture made us a lot closer and it made me feel safer. Our friends first joked about it, because they thought we were dating and kept it a secret from them. Isaac is my best friend and nothing more than that. "We could celebrate it together? Only if you want to," he replied. "I would love that," I said back. He squeezed my hand softly. "How are we going to celebrate it? My mom and dad are probably going to my family so we will be alone," I smiled and he stopped walking, causing me to stop too. "Let's do a few presents and watch movies for the rest of the night?" He asked me and I nodded. "That sound good, we could go to the mall tomorrow for the presents," I said and he agreed with me.
All out of the sudden I felt a snowball hitting my head. I let go of Isaac his hand. I bended down, grabbed some snow and formed it into a snowball. Swiftly I looked around to find the guilty kid, but I couldn't find him. Everyone was playing in the snow and I raised my shoulders a bit. I turned my body back to Isaac. His cheeks were red from the cold and I was happy that his bruises were completely healed. The smile on his lips was perfect and he stared at me.
"What a waste of this beautiful, perfectly round snowball," I said theatrical and I raised my arm a bit. "Luckily I have another target to throw it at," I said while throwing the snowball at him. It hit his chest and his eyes widened. I started to run away from him as fast as I possibly could, but the snow made it a bit more difficult. A snowball hit my arm and I made a new one for myself to throw back at him. While laughing I turned around and threw my snowball at him. It hit his head and he rubbed the snow off his face and out of his hair. "I'll get you back for that Piper!" He yelled at me and I saw how he started to run. I ran too and didn't stop to make a new snowball. I dodged some kids that were also running around but as the idiot that I am I fell down in the snow. Slowly I turned my body around and I saw Isaac bending over me. "I said I would get you back," he grinned and I looked at the snowball in his hands that slowly got closer to my face. I prepared for the snow to hit my face, but he threw it away from us. His face came closer and my breath stopped when I knew what he was doing. His lips touched mine and I laid my hand on his glowing cheek.
"Gross," I heard a kid say and our lips let go. His lips were a bit swollen and his cheeks were completely red, more than before. That was the first time we kissed.
