"so, there's this party tomorrow night.." he said.

"okay okay." he said holding his hands up.

"okay, now have fun, be safe. don't have too much fun." he said.

"goodbye cameron" i said and walked out the door.

i got in his car with him opening the door for me.

"okay." he said and got in and started his car

"okay" i smiled.

i rested my hand on the console and just looked out the window.

a few seconds later, i felt his hand on top of mine.

i looked over and smiled at him, him returning the smile.
