My body shivered as I climbed out of the pool. The sun was setting and we decided to get out. But I definitely felt cold now. It's freaking July! Why am I cold? I walked over to the chair that had my phone, but I didn't dare pick it up with my hands wet. Darn it! I didn't bring a towel. I mentally kicked myself. Ugh! I looked down to my shorts that were soaked since I didn't take them off while we were in the pool. Great, I'm definitely going home wet.
Sudden warmth covered my body as strong hands wrapped a dry towel around me. I turned around to see Devin. He was smiling tenderly at me, his warmth flooded out of his eyes.

Oh God, I think I love this guy.

My mind said in realisation. He rubbed my arms that were cover with the towel.
"You look cold." He said tenderly his voice filled with slight concern.
"Well I feel a little better now. Thanks for the towel."
His smile warmed my heart more then the towel ever could. His hair dripped with water and so did mine. I'm sure I look like a drowned rat right now. I felt like an idiot with the way I felt about him. He has this power over me that I don't even understand.
"Shall we get something to eat?" He asked looking over to the table with all the food. I didn't know until then that I was starving!
"Yes!" I said eagerly earning a laugh from Devin. Climb on he said giving his back to me and crouching down so I could get on him... My legs wrapped around him and my arms hung loosely around his neck. His hands gripped my thighs and hoisted me up a bit more. He stood up straight and I realized how tall he really was. I felt miles off the ground, my body jolted with excitement at the feeling of being tall. He laughed and gave my thighs a small squeeze.
"What was that about?" He asked me and I laughed.
"I'm tall!" I said excited and he filled with laughter.
"Lets go." I whispered into his ear as we were just standing there. He began walking to the tables and I glanced around to see if I could see anyone I knew. I didn't.

I wonder where Lachlan and Aileen are.

He came to a halt In front of the table. "Okay missy," he said letting go of my thighs and I kept my legs wrapped around his torso tightly. "What do you want to eat?" He asked picking up to plates and glancing over his shoulder to look at me.
"Hamburger." I spoke softly into his ear. I didn't want to be really loud since we were so close at the moment.

He smiled and picked up a bun and started placing everything I liked on it. He knew exactly what I liked on my hamburgers, after all he is my best friend.
He began making one for himself and it looked huge. I snickered In his ear and he smiled.
"What?"
"Oh nothing, you are just a pig, that's all." I said teasingly and he put a plate down and slapped my right thigh.
"Be nice." He said mockingly and I couldn't help but smile like an idiot. He is so cute!

"Chips. And some of those little barbeque sausage things." I whispered in his ear and I felt his whole body tense, but then relax.

"Don't do that." He said snickering," it tickles my ear." He smiled and began loading the plates with the chips and sausages. He walked over to the drinks and crouched next to the big ice chest.  "You are gonna have to grab the drinks since I have the plates." He said looking down to his hands. I grabbed a Dr. Pepper for myself. "And what do you want?" I asked into his ear again.
"Uh-um-I..... Same." He finely got out. He seriously just stuttered like a mad man. ...... that was Unusual. I grabbed another Dr.Pepper and he stood up balancing the plates and he began to walk down the small hill that was their back yard. He reached the swing that we were at earlier and I got down from his back.
This swing was always one of my favorite places at his parents house, and he knew that. I flashed him a smile before taking my plate out of his hand and giving him his soda. I sat down on the swing and he sat down beside me. The towel was still wrapped around me keeping me warm, but I couldn't help but missed the warmth i felt from him earlier.
We ate in silence, not a bad silence, a peaceful, blissful kind of silence. It was so nice. The sun began to disappear beneath the trees and darkness was beginning to fill the sky. I watched as the kids started running around holding sparklers and dancing around with them. The sight warmed me.
I felt Devin's arm wrap around me as he pulled me closer to him. I rested my head on his chest. It felt warm and open. The feeling sent jolts of electricity through my whole body. His hand stroked my arm up and down gently making me feel like a schoolgirl. How is he doing this to me? He doesn't even know he is doing this to me, does He?

Play the song!

I felt her head rested on the right side of my chest. Her arm stretch across my body and reached up to where her hand rested on my left shoulder. I felt warm and complete like this.
How can I let her find someone else? How can I live without her here with me?
I asked myself as my heart broke at the thought. I need her. But can she see that?
I stroked her arm and my attention was brought to the kids with the Sparklers. That means fireworks soon.

My mouth hung open slightly as my breath escaped my mouth and brushed over Devin's chest. He brought his left hand up to my face and brushed the hair from my face, tucking it behind my ear. His hand found placement on my cheek as he cupped the open side of my face. My eyes closed as I took in the feel of his tender touch. His thumb traced gently down my cheekbone just below my eyes, and then he brought it down to my lips. My lips parted slightly as his thump traced across my mouth. I could feel his heart beginning to hammer in his chest causing my to as well. His breath became heavy on my head.
"Stacey....." He called me by my actually name. He almost never did that. I didn't know what to do or say. My heart hammered even harder in my chest.
"Stacey, look at me." His voice was husky and laced with fear. I tilted my head up not leaving his chest for a second. His gaze was heavy into my eyes. I looked at him with complete surrender. His eyes searched mine for what felt like forever, but then his gaze dropped to my lips. And I parted them in anticipation. His hand cupped my face gently and he bent down letting his lips place themselves on mine.
