Recently Dakota has been going through some things with family and I feel that I should take her out . She's been really sweet to me and it's upsetting that I have to keep things from her and lie . But its only so much I can allow her to know . Believe me what she doesn't know wont kill her and that's not a joke .  Parts of me are afraid that she will get caught in the cross fire between my past and my present ....

Blasting migos threw my speakers I make my way over to Kota's house . It was a quick fifteen minute drive . Finally approaching her driveway I text her to come outside . "Why the sudden pop up ? " She asked walking up to my window ."Are you busy " I asked her while stepping out the car . Toni shook her head no "So you comin in ?"

I bit my lip from the anxiety that is she trying to build up . Is she trying to  introduce me to her parents?  "I'm not even dressed Dakota , for real look at me " I look over at the red door then back down . Toni chuckled then went to the passenger's   side of the car . "Where to ugly "she smiled revealing her perly  white teeth . The thing I admired most about Dakota is that she has such a bubbly personality . She's always entertaining the crowd with jokes or merely  her existence  .

"Were driving out of town and its a long car drive so tell me about The famous Dakota Selah Jones " I giggled at the fact of her face when I said her full name . " HEY HEY HEY " toni playfully hit my shoulder .

"Alright well first its no famous Dakota Selah Jones" She paused to collect her thoughts then continued . "Well for one I'm seventeen.I like horror and syfy really anything that makes you think . Uhm one day I would love to go ice skating or skydiving . " Dakota smiled then shrugged her shoulders .

"College plans ? " I asked looking at her then back at the road . "Tampa University or University of Houston "

"That's whats up seems like you have your future planned out " She chuckled then elbowed me playfully . "What about you Toni huh ?" . Honestly I cant answer her question . All I'm trying to do right now is discover who I truly am and stay out of anything dealing with Jane . Things between me and her run pretty deep . Toni snapped her fingers in front of my face pulling me out of my thoughts .

Laughing I reply "I'm taking it day by day with life yo know ? " .  She shook her head no in disappointment " Nope what do you want to do with your life ? What is your passion ? " Toni focused all of her attention on me waiting for a response . "To be happy "

Toni thought about my response for a little while then continued to ask questions ."So how was your childhood ? Do you have sibling ? "

"Well my childhood was something uhh I have a big sister and that's about it " I respond keeping it short and sweet . But did Dakota take that as a simple answer ? No she did not . Thankfully I was saved because we finally arrived at our destination .

When Toni got out of the car she looked around the vacant parking lot then turned and looked at me . "The hell are we Toni ? I'm not down for this creepy shit , like we need to be around people so if you kill me I can be out in the open . " She begin to pace back and forth .

"Relax Kota follow me " I said putting my hand out for her to hold , looking at me she grabbed my hand and I led her into the little town . After a five minute walk we were finally  greeted by people who works for a puppy rescue center . "Aww look at him " Toni squealed while picking up the puppy .

We played with him for awhile until a family wanted to see him . Now I see she likes dogs ....that's an idea for the future ....

"Babe you want some ice cream " I asked as we approached the ice cream parlor  . She nodded her head yes and ran into the ice cream parlor  . I giggled then kissed her cheek " Can we have one strawberry waffle cone and babe what do you want ?"

"And a chocolate waffle cone "she begin to take out her wallet but I shook my head no and handed the lady a five dollar bill . She gave us the changed and we continued to walk and talking . I have learned so much about Dakota in one day like as cliché as this sounds I really feel like I have known her all my life . "So like are we together or " Dakota mumbled then licked her ice cream .

I chuckled at how cute she was "Repeat " I said cupping my ear with a smile . "No you heard me Toni don't bull shit me " She rolled her eyes .  I licked her ice cream cone while   she wasnt looking . Or at least I thought ..

"Really " She laughed at the ice cream that was on my nose . " Its so funny how about that " I took some and put it on her nose .

"Wow this is beautiful " I said wrapping my arm around Toni's waist . "I'm glad you like it Kota " This lady and her husband I assumed approached us  hand in hand ."Come sit we don't bite plus we have popcorn " The lady gestured for us to have a seat . We thank her for her hospitality and took  a seat .

"Thank you for a wonderful day I enjoyed it " I peeked  her lips then cuddled up next to her . "Consider it a date " Toni whispered  in my ear . I turn my face to blush this girl here is something else . I don't know what it is but all I know is when I'm with her time stops its just me and her even though I know she has hidden skeletons   . I don't care though but eventually I would like to know more about her and not just the sugar coated answers 

"To answer your questions from earlier ...yes ..we are together " Toni whispered in my ear again .

we are together " Toni whispered in my ear again
