A week later

I sat at home with my knees up to my chest sipping on the tea my mom had brought me.  It had done nothing but storm all day, but I was enjoying my down time. I hadn't really seen any of the guys since our day at the beach except for Tyler who showed up at the shop the day after to tell me they were called for a week trip for a radio show in what ever city, I didn't really remember. 

Id been watching classic movies all day curled up on the couch in my bedroom with all the doors open so the smell and sound of the rain outside created a relaxing atmosphere in my room. 

"Knock Knock" My mom said with a smile on her face. I looked over to her as she stepped aside for me to see Keaton smiling big.

"I have to go to a dinner with your dad for a work thing," My mom started allowing Keaton to walk past her into my room. "We'll be gone for a while. Behave you two." she said winking and leaving the room closing the door. 

I stood up  awkwardly wrapping my cardigan over my body. Why I was selfconcious in my pajamas right now I wasn't sure especially since Keaton has seen me in my close to nothing bathing suits. I could tell he sensed I was nervous as he stepped up to me and pulled me into a huge hug.

"I'm really sorry we had to leave so suddenly, and since I still haven't gotten your phone number and I couldn't tell you bye and Id been thinking nonstop about our kiss and you and missing you and-"

I slipped my finger under his chin and brought his face to mine slowly kissing him. I could feel him smile against my lips which caused me to smile

"You talk to much kid." I said as our foreheads pressed together. He chuckled before kissing me again. He held both sides of my face as our lips moved in unison. He backed me up until I hit the edge of my couch. 

He broke the kiss again smiling as we both sat down. I had just then noticed how fast my heart was fluttering and how the feeling in my stomach twisted in turned every time he touched me. 

He grabbed my hand and pulled me closer so he could place his arm over my shoulders. 

"So what are we watching." He said looking down at me. My breath hitched as our faces because so close again. I wanted to do nothing but kiss him. The way he made me feel was addicting and all I wanted to do was have more of it.

I think I surprised him by placing my hand at his jaw and turning his face into my own, but he quickly agreed by leaning further into me and soon placing both his hands at my waist and maneuvering me to straddle his lap. Our kisses were fast and heavy. I still held onto his face with both hands as his arms snaked around my waist holding me as close as I could get to him. It reminded me of the way you hold someone who is about to leave for a long time. But I wasn't going anywhere. He picked me up slightly and laid me down without breaking the kiss.

Our kiss slowed and sweetened into soft kisses as his thumb traced my cheek in soft circles. I entwined my arms around kiss neck and softly traced my fingers across the defined muscles in his back.

As much as I didn't want it to end I knew as the kisses slowed it was going to. Keaton was the first to pull away and continued to rub circles as he stared at me.

"You are so beautiful." He said as his eyes traced over my face. I bit my lip not quite knowing what to say to him. He took my hand and sat me up and brushed the stray hairs that were falling out of my bun out of my face.

The whole night consisted of us watching movies and continuing our little random make-out sessions. I had my legs over his lap and my head on my shoulder as we watched his favorite movie. I loved when he laughed at it because of the vibration that went through my body

"I have something to ask you." Keaton said as the credits rolled for the movie.

"Whats up?" I said moving my head from his chest to get a look at his face.

"We have that Teen Choice Award thingy to go to and.. well I was just wondering if you'd be interested in being my date?" He said. A smile broke out on his face as I accepted his invitation. Just seeing him this happy made me glow. 

He planted one last long kiss on my mouth before getting the remote and putting another movie on.

I woke up the next morning with Keaton still holding onto me but now we were in my bed. I tried not to move him too much as I lifted my head from his chest to try and rember how I got in bed, but I honestly couldn't remember. I must have fallen asleep then Keaton carried my to bed and just passed out next to me. 

I put my head back down to try and relax but the sun was shining bright and I could hear the crashing of the waves out my window.

"Keaton...Keaton?" I whispered. He stirred and slowly his eyes fluttered open.

"Lets go surf." I said, my face breaking out into a grin when Keaton laughed at me and started to sit up.
