That Drop of Rain

My evening

Matt was dropping me off and walked me to my front door and as I walked in my mom came running from the kitchen.
"Hey Madison!" she said. "Why don't you invite Matt to stay for dinner? You've been spending a lot of time with him these past few days. We would like to get to know him."
"Ummm," I hesitated, "sure! Why not?" I turned around towards Matt and invited him to stay. Of course he said yes he just had to tell his dad that he'd be eating with us.
We did our homework together before we ate and Brian kept bugging us.
He kept singing, "Matt and Madison sitting in a tree. K I S S I N G!"
Dad kept interrogating him like a suspect. The only difference was the topic of the questions.
"Would you ever cheat on her?" Dad asked one time. Matt said no and then continued talking with me about our trigonometry homework.
After we finished homework we sat at the table to eat. Mom and dad sat at the heads, Brian across from me, and Matt next to me and closest to my dad. He must've been real brave to do that. We have a six person table for get togethers but we don't hardly ever have those at our house.
After our dinner of steak, potatoes, and green beans, Matt and I cuddled on the couch to watch a movie. He lied down and I put my head on his chest. I could hear his heartbeat be interrupted by the sound of his laughter. By now Brian was jumping on top of us and laughing.
"Brian! Stop messing with them! They are trying to relax and you just have to ruin it. Go to your room!" Mom said.
"Thanks mom."
Matt re-situated his position so that I could lay back on his chest. When I did he kissed my forehead and I looked up at him and smiled. We touched noses and giggled. She the movie was over he asked if we could start another one and of course I told him yes. He chose a cheesy rom com.
It got to a really romantic scene and he looked at me and I looked at him. We kissed but the kiss was longer than intended. We made out for a good thirty minutes or so. He topped it off by kissing the tip of my nose before pulling away. I sat in the corner of the couch and he wrapped his arms around me, holding on tight. I noticed a huge bruise on his bicep that went up to his shoulder.
"I don't want to go home," he mumbled.
"I can ask Mom and Dad if you can sleep on the couch." By this time they were in bed. It was 10:00.
"Ok," he told me as he let go for me to get up.
I asked mom and dad if he could spend the night and sleep on the couch because he didn't want to have to go home.
"Hmmmmm. You want a boy to stay the night?" Dad asked.
"Yeah."
"As long as you are in your bed by your curfew and he stays on the couch," he said.
My curfew was 11:00. I walked back to the living room and told Matt that he could stay. Then I looked at the big clock. It read 10:02 so I had an hour to stay with Matt.
We snuggled up with each other for that hour. His arms wrapped around me tightly. I was comfortable. Then all of a sudden I felt that weird thing again. I had to shake it away. When I did, Matt looked at me like I was a crazy person. He smiled then laid back on on my shoulder.
Before I knew it, it was already 11:00. I told him good night, gave him a blanket and a kiss. Then I went to my room and went to sleep.
