Can We Love

Chapter Five:Weekend Getaway

  I smile at the sound of the roaring croud. SB High had just made the winning touchdown to go to national. It was a Friday night and the whole school had come out to cheer on the SB Lions. I had personally came out to cheer on Joe but just to make sure there were no suspicions I used a hand full of friends and my brother as an excuse. Jonah was also on the Football team and he was damn good. Probably the best player on the team. After the game the football team and their select few went to Johnny's HangOut. Johnny's is a teen bar that everyone goes to just to chill. Its was like an after party. As soon as I walk in the bar I quickly spot out joe and motion him to follow me out t he back door. We sneak out to the ally way and stay there for a while and talk.

"Hey baby, you were amazing at the game tonight", I say smiling and hugging him tight.

"Thank yoy I'm so glad you were hear to see it."

"I wouldn't miss it for the world."

"We haven't been spending as much time as we used to and my parents lake house is empty so I want to take you there for the weekend."

"That sounds fun, romantic, and also funny because how are we going to sneak out of town without anyone asking any questions or going to the next level and calling the cops. You out of all people should know how protective my parents are", I said with a raised eyebrow.

"Who cares!" He says as his voice raises.

"Just for once lets just run away  together and act like our lives are not like this and we can be together no matter what. And to all the questions when we get back we can answer them, but for now lets just go."

I smile at his reply, kiss him and agree to to go with him to the lake house. We then silently walked out of Johnny's and headed to my house to get some clothes. Joe had already had his clothes In the back of his dad's pickup truck.

We arrived at the lake house by 2:00 am the next morning. By then we had gotten about ten calls each and we had ignored them all. On the way there I could only imagine the things they were doing to find use. I knew that when we got home we were practically dead, so I figure maybe I should just live for this weekend. When we go inside I see these amazing wooden wall and shinny wooden floor and this slightly spiraled wooden staircase. I go up it to find rooms when I get up there I see eight bed rooms but I head for the master bedroom. I stand there to admire all the furniture and the nice colors on the wall. within seconds joe comes behind and hugs. I imbrace his warmth as he kisses my neck and I shut my eyes.

"Are we going to share a room." I ask already knowing the answer.

"Only if you want to", he says smiling and waiting for a reply.

"Of course. I will start unpacking and do you want me to cook or do you want to order pizza", when I turn around he has the biggest smile on his face.

"Baby, I brought you here, not the other way around so that means that you relax and I will do all of the cooking and cleaning. So the question is do you want take out or for me to cook."

"I have never tasted your cooking so I want you to cook."

That night was probably the best night I had in a long time. It turns out he is a great cook and the lake house had a beautiful view of the lake.

The next morning he made me breakfast in bed, he made me feel so good that I just wanted to stay there and never go back. Later that day we went down to the lake and went skinny dipping, then things got a little heated so we went back up to the house and we went crazy in each others pants...well at that time we didn't have any pants.

The next morning I get out of bed earlier than him to get packing. It was sunday morning and time to go home. By this time we had already had gotten about 50 calls together. Finally Joe had decided to get up.

"Good morning sleepy head", I sat as I look over to him.

"Hey baby, whoa, where do you think your going", he says getting up and kissing me on the forehead.

"Don't you mean where are we going and to answer that question we are going home, its sunday morning and almost 10:00 am so we have to get going" I pecked him on the lips and grabbed the suitcases to take the down to the car before he could say anything. By the time I got back up there he was half way dressed and by 10:10 am we were already on the road.

It was 12:00 and Joe was dropping me of at my house and I was scared to death. I walk into my house and Jonah was right in front of the door.

"Holy shit", he says " you my friend should have stayed where ever the hell you were because let me tell ya, you are in a shit load."

When I walk in the living room I found out that Jonah was right and  I should have stayed where I was.
