Keaton had come back with 2 bowls of cookies n cream ice cream. He handed on to me and then took a seat across from me on my bed. I didn't say anything, I just grabbed a huge chunk of ice cream and shoved it in my mouth. I wanted to ask Keaton if this was supposed to be a date, but I was very hesitant. I then finally thought 'Come on Lilly, it's just a innocent question.'

"So was-" I said but the Keaton interrupted

"If its, oh sorry, you go first."

"No you can, go first, mine wasn't that important." I said weirdly.

"Oh ok..... Um so if it's not to much to ask... How did your grandpa die?" Keaton asked shyly.

"Oh, um well, he died from cancer, it started with just prostate but then it just spread through his body and killed him. My father had the same kind of cancer, except my father survived. I am very lucky to still have my father. But I was much closer to my grandpa. He was my everything, he was always there for me. We just had the special bond, kinda like a father daughter bond. He was so funny too, and he would always play music on his record player, and he would teach me how to dance." The tears started to come down, but I brushed them off. Keaton didn't seem to notice my tears, so he asked another question.

"How old were you when he died?"

"I was 13 years old, and it was hard because at that time, I understood everything, and I knew he could never come back." I said my voice very shake.

Keaton put down his ice cream bowl, and gave me hug, similar to the one, when we were in front of the record player. I then pulled away and asked if we could talk about something else. Keaton nodded and asked "so what were you going to say?"

I wanted to avoid that so I decided to come up with some random question, and not ask if this was a date.

"So what's your favorite animal?" I already knew that answer, but I couldn't think of anything else.

"Well I'm sure you know this Lilly, but definitely kitties."

I laughed, he was such a child, but he was a child that I never wanted to leave.

"Yea I did know that, I was just wondering if you had changed your mind." I said.

"Well see but what I don't know it what is your favorite animal?"

I thought for a while, but I honestly loved cats, I didn't want to seem as if I just said cats because he did so I just stated 2 animals.

"I absolutely love koalas and cats for sure!" I said excitedly.

"oh my gosh, I totally love koalas too." Keaton said laughing.

We both laughed a little and them Keaton said

"I absolutely love your laugh!"

I thanked him and simply said "Right back at you."

There was a bit of a silence, until Keaton asked another question.

"So how is Olivia?"

Olivia was my best friend, she had left to back to NorCal, where she was originally from, After we graduated. We were both early students, so we both graduated a year ago , when Olivia had just turned 17 and I was still 16. I'm a summer baby. We have know each other since we were 5 years old, and I couldn't wait until we could see each other again.

"Olivia is doing good, she misses you guys, a lot. And she just got a place so she is going to move back this week."

"What! That's awesome! We should throw a party for her!"

"Yea we should!"

I was getting tired so I looked at the time, it was midnight.

"I'm tired I think I'm going to bed." I said yawning

"Perfect, I will lay with you."

"You are going to lay with me,"

"Yes of course, I want to lay with you under the stars, if that is .. um.. ok?"

"Yea that's fine." I was really fine with it I was shocked that Keats kinda liked me, or at least I thought he did a little.

Keaton got under the covers, and just stared at the ceiling.

"We did a pretty damn good job."

I then got under the covers and agreed.

"We did."

Keaton turned and laid on his side, looking at me.

I turned and then looked at him.

"What?" I asked

"You're amazing, you know that?"

I blushed so hard, I couldn't believe he just said that, I was so happy.

I smiled and he smiled back. We grew closer and closer. Keaton placed his hand on my waist and kissed me. He kissed me passionately, as if I was the last person he could ever kiss. This kiss lasted a while and I slowly got on top of him. Keaton rose into a sit position, so to could sit on his lap, while kissing him. I have felt this kind of love in a while, and I was glad it was back. I stopped and he rested our foreheads together and just smiled at each other. We kissed for a little while longer, until I got off him and laid in the bed. He also laid down, and I rested my head on his chest, he wrapped his arm around me and we went to sleep.
