Geek Charming

Right after the end of spring formal

As Josh and Dylan begin to leave the hall, where they had spent their time dancing and kissing the night away, Dylan's dad stopped them. "I'll be out tonight with Amber, be good you two," he said hugging his daughter then pulling josh aside so, Dylan couldn't hear. "You hurt her Son I will hunt you down, take her home safe now," turning back to Dylan and releasing Josh from his tight grip he let them walk out hand in hand.

"What was that about?" Dylan asked curiously, while turning to Josh as he opened his crappy car's door for her.

"Nothing, he was just making sure I get you home safe is all," He said helping her into the car then turning away to hide his scared expression. "So you ready to go?" he asked also getting into the car to drive her home. She nodded in answer and they drove off. Within minutes they were back at hers, they barely talked the whole way home. When they arrived Josh turned off the engine and just stared at the wheel.

"Do you want to come in?" Dylan asked timidly, even though he'd been in her house dozens of times and she had invited him in dozens of times somehow this felt different to her. Without even looking at her he answered.

"No I think I should go home, your dad said..." he began to say but Dylan cut him off by starting to gently rub his arm that rested by his side. When his eyes met hers he could see that she wanted him to come in as much as he wanted to but, he had doubts about it all. "Are you sure you want me too?"

"You've been in my house a ton why is now any different," Dylan exclaimed knowing full well why it was different. She leaned over to him and met her lips with his gently at first but then when his mind kicked in he kissed back just as passionately as she desired.

"Dylan you know why this is different, I don't want you to feel like I'm making you do anything you don't want to do," she bit down on her bottom lip too keep from ravaging him because he was so humble and sweet.

"I want this," she said but this time she knew full well that she did. He laid a single kiss on her lips then recoiled as she did too, went round and opened the car door for her. Fumbling with the keys he finally locked the car up and then she fumbled with her keys to open the front door. As soon as she stepped through the door he followed closely behind then closed it. He took her hand looking into her eyes searching for doubt before they went any further there wasn't any. He removed his jacket and tie leaving them stricken over the couch in the lounge that they passed on their way to her room. As they walked through the wall ways her shoed clacked on the floor. Still hand in hand as they entered her room. She let go of his hand and turned to face him. "There's one thing I have to do first though okay?" she asked. He nodded silenced by her. He sat on her bed waiting for her return and feeling his mind racing with every little thought.

Before he could sort all of the little thoughts and make sense of everything he noticed her standing in the door way. She had changed from her pink floral dress into some plain clothes, a t-shirt and jean shorts. Her hair was still framing her face but her floral crown had been taken off she had the clothes she was wearing just moments ago folded neatly in her hands. "I had to change out of it," she explained even though Josh understood that, that dress was her mothers. "Can I just put it away before we continue?" She asked with a slight croak in her voice as she started to tear up. Josh stood from the bed and pulled her into a tight embrace then wiped her few tears with his thumb.

"Of course you can, I'm in no rush for anything, just being with the real Dylan is enough," she choked a laugh and put the dress and floral crown away along with some jewellery that he hadn't noticed until he saw her gently set it down. She put the box away sliding it back into place then stood and faced him.
