That perfect was mine.

Chapter 6

Where is he gonna take me, it's probably just a normal hang out spot. Or some dinner. I'm curious as to where though.

I grab the black handle bar, of the yellow truck. As the door swings open I step back. I hop in and sit beside him and shut the car door. He responds "I guess your just gonna have to find a way to figure it out, huh??." He smiles and puts the car in drive, he's looking at me in the corner of his eye, and squints. Then focuses on the rode.

"Touché" I grin.

" well Ariel, where you from?" We turn out of the schools entrance way and start down the main rode, his truck is easy and steady.

"I was born in Tennessee, moved here when I was 2 and I have lived in different states but this one I have stayed in for a while seems like home now. How about you?" I feel as if home, is just a word for family. Cause for me I have had so many houses it's hard to count but home is where your family is and my family is my mother, so there's no place I rather be then with her.

"I have lived here forever never went anywhere. Kinda my home too I guess."

"You have a brother or sister?"

"Brother, but he's younger, other then that nope"

"Sounds interesting"

"Do you have any?"

"I have two sisters but one of them ran off with her boyfriend a couple years back. And the other works in a strip joint in Kentucky. There just the best" I smirk and put my hand in a fist and pass my arm across my body in an L shape, indicating job well done, in a way.

"They seem like the greatest roll models!" He laughs.

"Defiantly, "

He stops at a red light and looks at me, "wanna play a game"

"Depends, what game" I raise an eyebrow.

"Questions" he continues, "I ask you a question, and you answer honestly. Then you're supposed to ask me one."

"I know how to play" i say harsh.

"Fine no need to get all defensive." He smiles and puts his hands up in surrender. The light turns greens and both hands return back on the steering wheel and we continue to drive. "you go?" He says eager.

"Fine, um..." I think, I'm gonna ask an easy one. " okay what's your favorite color?"

"Blue and yellow" he just keeps looking at the rode and then me. In a pattern. The truck slows to a stop at the red light. "Like the blue in your eyes" he smiles, and we catch contact. he's bright big brown eyes I'm looking strait into and it's the most magical moment I have ever experienced. Like the world has shut off and it's only us left. I have butterfly's, and goosebumps, but I don't look away. We're looking into each other, I feel as if he states two hard he'll know every last detail, secret or feeling of mine. At this point I'm not sure I would mind. I find myself bitting my lip, after so long of being hypnotized by his eyes and looking straight into him but enjoying it, I wake from my fanasy because of honking by the cars behind us, I turn, look down ,them up at the street the light had turned green. He dose the same and the car starts again.

I smile, I can't help it. "Your turn" I nuge his arm.

"Fine... Okay... Um..?" He thinks, taps his chin. " uhhhh.. Okay, do you believe in l-..love? Maybe?" He looks down, he seem hesitant of asking, but it doesn't bother me. I mean I do and don't, it depends on the person and the love you share together, the times you have, and if you believe you are strong together. I have always admired love, with hopes and big desires for it but it just Doesn't appear out of thin air you need to find it. I also fear love, fear intimacy, as if I love someone so much that they break me or my love life will end up like my parents, where they just look at each other in disgusted. Don't sleep in the same bed, don't share money, call each other nasty names. I don't want to end up like them and show my kids that's what love is, but the truth of the matter is I really don't know what love is.
