CHRIS'S POV

We pulled away and he grabs my hand. The warmth of his lips is still dancing across mine. I don't really know where he is taking me, and I am in too much of a daze to care.

Soon he is snapping his fingers in front of my face, shouting "Chris!".

"Huh? Oh sorry" I say sheepishly. He chuckles, and pulls me inside.

We walk inside and Hayes shouts "mom, we're home!". Hayes drags me to the kitchen and he goes to the refrigerator. "Ugh there's no food" he complains. I giggle and walk over to him.

The refrigerator is full. "Yeah clearly there is no food in that refrigerator" I sarcastically say and roll my eyes.

I open up the freezer and take out a tub of ice cream. I grabbed two giant spoons, and grabbed Hayes wrists. "Where are we going?" He asked.

"What's the fun in that?" I mimicked him from before. He chuckled, and let me drag him.

I was dragging him to our tree house. It's smack in the middle of our houses, so we used to sneak into each others rooms because if you open my/his window, there is a fat branch. You can scoot across it and too our tree house. Whenever we would get in trouble, we'd go out there. We used to have like pretzels and water and snacks hidden, but we haven't been up there in a really long time. Even Hayes used to keep his laptop up there.

I began to climb up the ladder, and once I was up there, I went to the corner. That's where Hayes and I would camp out sometimes. There used to be blankets and pillows up there, but we took them out. I guess I forgot them. I set the ice cream tub in the corner, and Hayes came up.

I crawled over to the branch that leads to my room, and Hayes stopped me. "Where are you going?" He asked.

"To get blankets and pillows" I said crawling further down the branch, and closer to the window.

"But your not allowed in your house, won't you get in trouble?" He said, and I shrugged.

"Who said they're going to find out?" I said finally reaching my window. I lifted it up, and slipped through. In my room. I looked around in the darkness, and walked over to my bed. I grabbed the pink and black fuzzy blankets, along with my yogibo. It's basically a long pillow shaped like a tube, but feels like a bean bag.

I walked towards the window and threw them over to Hayes, which he caught. He put them behind him, and waited for me to come across the branch. Once I was on the branch, I quietly shut my window, and scooted across the branch. Hayes put a hand out for me, and I grabbed it.

At one point I lost my balance a little, and flew right on top of him. His arms were wrapped around me, and mine were on his chest. "Oops" I giggle.

He chuckles, and we both sit up, leaving his face inches from mine. I keep my eyes locked with his, until I looked down at my hands that were folded in my lap. His fingers rise my head, so I keep looking at him.

I keep looking at my lap, don't ask why it's just involuntarily. "Look at me" he whispers, his fingers coming underneath my chin, once again and lifting my head up so I could look at him.

"Your so beautiful, you know that?" He says softly. I feel my cheeks burn up, and it know they turn pink.

"No you don't need to lie because we're having this 'moment'" I said shaking my head. This isn't going to last. This is just today because of what happened with my mom. It's just a distraction.

"Everyone believes it but you" he whispers again. My hand moves up to his shoulder, and it rests there. His hands snake down to my waist, the butterflies erupting rapidly.

Well since we're just sitting here and no one is making a move, I will.

My head slowly inches closer to him, my lips pressing onto his lips gently. My other hand cupped his neck, and his hands pulled me closer by the waist.

We pulled away, and he gave me one last peck before I crawl off his lap. I went to the corner, and put the yogibo behind me so I was comfortable. Hayes came next to me and pulled the blankets over us. I grabbed the ice cream and opened it. It isn't completely melted, but it's soft. I hand Hayes a spoon, and we scoop the ice cream out of the tub, and shove it into our mouths.

We talked, and talked, and talked. Talked about our future. Talked about what dreams we have. Talked about anything roaming our minds basically. We ended up laying down, and I was cuddled into his chest. I realized I still had my dress on, but I didn't really care.

After hours and hours, we fell asleep.
