Quentin was driving me back home, even though it was a 5 minute walk, everyone always insists on driving when it's so called 'dark', even though it's a safe neighbourhood with a lot of security. Although I'm glad he suggested it was beginning to storm outside...

"I need to get some gas first, you mind?" Quentin asked politely
"Go ahead" i said.

We pulled up to the blindingly lit petrol station, he got out the car to fill the tank up so I  texted Ashley to tell her what she had missed at Tanner's house. In her words, she was "shook".
Quentin leaned over the open window on the drivers side and asked "you want anything"
"No thanks" I said to him still looking at my phone. He went over to pay and as he was coming out he had a handful of junk food.

"That stuffs gonna kill you, you know" I joked
"I'll die a happy man" he joined in.
Me and Quentin always got along, that's what i liked about our friendship so much.

Later on we pulled up to my drive way,
"Your mom still not home?" He asked curiously
"No she's out with her work, some kind of dinner" I explained while unbuckling my seatbelt and gathering my stuff
"You're home alone?" He asked with a slight concerned voice
"Yea -" i said looking for my phone which i seemed to have misplaced since the petrol station "-she eh- she's gonna be home around 9" I said while looking through my bag
"You want me to come in and wait with you?" He asked
"I think I'll be okay, but if you want to then sure" i shrugged and laughed "here it is" i said holding my phone as I hopped out the car running to the porch which was covered by a roof, sheltering me from the rain - Quentin followed after me,
"Lovely weather we're having" he joked.

We both came into the house, I hit the light switch and all the lights blew out,
"The fuse must've blew" Quentin suggested as if i was blind "where's your fuse box?" He added
"My what?" I asked with genuine curiosity
"Never mind, you have any torch lights or candles?" He asked trying to come up with solutions,
"I have candles up in my room" we both switched on the torch on our phones to find our way around the house, you could hear the wind blowing furiously at the windows, whistling through cracks.
"Aren't you glad i stayed with you" we both laughed as i lit the room with battery powered fairy lights and a ton of candles.
We talked for a while, we got along really well so it was easy making conversation, then Tanner came up.
"So whats the deal with you and Tanner?" He asked as if he's been holding that question in for a while,
"The deal?-" i asked "-is there a deal, I don't know" i tried to avoid the question,
"Cmon Kate, you except me to believe that- you my friend - are a liar" he laughed while poking me
"Hey, don't poke me" i poked him back
"Or what?" He poked me once more until it turned into a poking fight
"Hey stopp-" I laughed uncontrollably "-that tickles" I continued to laugh
He pinned me down and began to tickle my ribs, as I continued to laugh unable to get him off of me, finally I managed to scoot him off next to me, we both lay there still laughing, he turned to look at me
"What?" I said still chuckling, turning my head towards him
"Nothing" he implied
"Oh cmon, tell me" i said laying on my side holding my head in my palm my elbow leaning on the floor as support, he instantly coppied my pose
"-nothing" he chuckled
"Don't make me poke you again-" when suddenly he kissed me. I froze for a second, until some moments later we were making out - and then some more - this went on for about 5 minuets, but it felt like forever, at this point i was sitting on top of him when i pulled back -
"We shouldn't have done that-" I said realising "-Tanner is your friend" I said "- Tanners my-"
He didn't say a word
The downstairs front door opened "KATE IM HOME-" my mom yelled
"I should go" he got up quickly "-I'm sorry" he tried
He stopped at the door "- don't tell anyone about this okay"
"Wait but-" i tried before he ran out of the bedroom door.
