Will You Stay?

chapter 5

We pulled up to a place called "Happy Joe's Arcade!" I remember some type of arcade but not much of it. We park and get out of the car.
When we walked in the door nothing at all seemed familiar. Khan and I went and sat at the counter. A lady of about 40 came over.
"Malery! I haven't seen you in forever,let me guess, the usual?" She asks.
"I have a usual? Yeah sure!" I reply. We sat there awkwardly for awhile. Then we got up to play some ski ball. Kysin took my hand and led me over to the machine. He put a coin in and it started.
I looked around at the place. There was those motorcycle games that you had to move back and forth to control.
Suddenly, a bunch of stuff came flying at me. I remember one time Kysin and I were here and there was already one of the motorcycle games taken. There was only one left. We fought over it until we decided to share it on one turn.
"Hey Kysin?" I asked.
"Yeah?" He replies.
"Can we play the motorcycle game after this?" I asked him.
"Yeah sure!" He said back. He threw a ball and made it in the 100.
" Can we share one like we did that one time?" I asked.
"Yeah of cou-" He dropped the ball he had and turned to look at me. His jaw dropped.
"You remember?" He said astonished.
"I've known this whole time, haha, I really got you good." I said mockingly.
"That is not funny!" He yells. He sounded serious but not even he could hold in the laughter. We both bursted out laughing as he wraps me in his arms. I find myself looking up at him to see he is looking down at me.
"What?" I asked him.
"I wanna try something. Just hold still." He said. His face came closer to mine until our lips were touching. I just went along with it and moved my lips with his. The longer we stayed together the more desperate we became.
"Kysin pushed me up against the Claw Machine. We were full on making out by now.
"Malery? Kys-Oh!" The lady saw us and we sprang apart."You crazy kids carry on, Malery, here is your chicken strips and ranch." She said and then walked off.
"Wow!" Was all I could say. I had never saw Kysin as more than a friend. But now I think what I want is actually standing right in front of me." That was great."
"Seriously?" He asked. "I thought you didn't like it!"
"I would have pulled away if I didn't like it, stupid!" I replied.
"Oh." He said. "We should start heading back."
By then I had eaten all I wanted and i got up and dusted myself off. We walked out to the car and drove back to his house. I crashed on the futon and he went up to his room. I drifted off to sleep and went into a dream.
