Summer Nights

Moving In

That night was my chance to get everything I needed.

Two-bit even insisted on helping me since you know my parents are there, and he wants to protect me if they wake up.

Or something like that.

I grab everything I can which includes: clothes, money, hairbrush, deodorant, tooth brush and paste, and even my stuffed Minnie Mouse stuffed animal Two-bit bought me when we were little.
I sleep with it every night.

Okay, don't judge me..

I quietly closed the gate that leads to my front porch and walked away not even looking back.

I then ran and ran down deep into Greaser territory, until I came to
Two-bit's house.

The porch lights were on, so I know they've must be expecting me.

I knock on the door with a little confidence as my favorite smile greets me in.

He laughs as I make my way past him and asks, "Got enough things?"

I looked at my bag and said, "Oh please, this is nothing."

He rolled his eyes replying, "Pff girls." I walked slowly down his hallway:

His mother was humming in the kitchen, and she had something cooking. It smelled delightful.

I turned around to see Two-bit had his bedroom door open.

He said to me, "You're room ...and mine... awaits."

I then followed him inside and for once his room was actually clean.

I said, "Wow! Look, you actually do have a window woah and a carpet!"

He smiled and replied, "Glad you like it?"

I nodded my head and said, "It's great."

I've known Two-bit long enough to know that he never cleans like ever!

He then says while walking out the door, "Make yourself at home, and if you need anything I'm there."

I smiled putting my back pack away and said, "Thank you so much."

He threw his arm over my shoulder and said, "It was no problem at all, Shay."

We then laid next to each other at the end of his bed.

I tilt my head and look up at him then setting it down in the crook of his neck.

I really hope he can't hear my heart beating because if he can he better run because I think it's about to explode.

I look up at him and said, "I'll be right back...I'm just going to get some water."

I stood up a little bit and walked out of his room to the kitchen.

Mrs. Two-bit was eating dinner but stood right up when she saw me.

She then ran to me hugging me tightly and said, "Shay, it's been awhile! How have you been?"

I replied, "Oh, I've been fine...how about you?"

She then answered, "Good, you know keeping Two-bit up on his feet but what's new."

I kind of giggled at her remark as she continued, "Do ya need something?"

I smiled and said, "Just some water would be fine. Thanks."

She gladly got up in the middle of eating just to get me a glass of water.

She hands me the glass saying, "Here ya go, darling...you know Two was really excited that you've come to stay?"

I raised an eyebrow holding back a chuckle and asked, "Oh is he now?"

She said, "Yep he is, you know I think that he likes you."

I then chucked and said, "Yeah, as friends."

She shakes her head sitting back down and said, "I think it's more than that."

I gave a little laugh and said, "Goodnight, Mrs. Mathews."

She smiled back and said, "Goodnight, dear."

I headed back to my...our room after gulping down my water.

Two-bit liking me? That's crazy right? I mean that only happens in books and movies. It is impossible for him to like me.

I enter back into the room to find
Two-bit exactly where I left him.

I got back in my same position, and I could've sworn I saw him smile.

I said quietly, "Hey."

He said back repeating the tone of voice I used, "Hey."

Later that night, I changed into my pajamas which is just an old grey
tank top and black smooth pants.

I came back in the room to find Two-bit inside the covers laying on a pillow.

I crawled in beside him and turned over looking at him.

His eyes were closed, but his lips were formed into a cute smile.

I whispered, "Goodnight, Two-bit."

And I'm not for sure but I think he mumbled really quietly almost too quiet I almost missed it.

"Goodnight, Shay."
