My koala Cole (a cole pendery romance)

cole's aunt's house

I woke up and looked at the clock on the dashboard. It was 12:00. We had been driving for an hour. "Hey sleepy head" said Cole "did you have a nice nap?" "Yeah" "you're so cute when you sleep" "I find that extremely hard to believe" I said. "Well its true". "Are we almost there yet?" "Yup we are here right now". we took a turn into the woods down a long windy path. We reached a clearing and there was a small house in the middle. "Where are we?" I asked. "This is my aunt's house. She's not here right now but I called her and she said we could stop by." "Why would we go to her house when she's not here?" I questioned. "You'll see" he said.

We got out of the car and Cole put a blindfold on me. "Is this really necessary?!" I screamed. "Yes, now stop screaming!" Said Cole. We arrived at our destination and Cole took the blindfold off of me. We were in a barn and there were horses in all of the stalls lining the walls. "My aunt owns a lot of land so she said we could go trail riding" cole said.

I picked a tri-colored paint. His name was Trickster and Cole picked a bay colored thoroughbred named Molly. We tacked up our horses and started walking down the trail. I rode down the trail following Cole until we reached a small clearing in the woods. It was a very secluded area so nobody would be able to see us. And we were so deep in the woods no one would be able to hear us either.

We tied up our horses to trees and they grazed. We sat down in the middle of the soft grassy patch. I started thinking about what happened at the dance and how we were alone and how some people might call this a date. I couldn't take it anymore I had to know the truth. "Cole, can I ask you a question?" "Yeah, babe anything". Babe? Really? Is it just me or is that something a guy would say to his girlfriend? "Cole, are we dating?" There I just said it. And I can already feel my palms starting to sweat.

"Well, I don't know do you want us to date?" Asked Cole. "I don't know, maybe do you?"

"OK I'm gonna be honest with you" said Cole. "Ever since I saw you for the first time at school I thought you were beautiful. I wanted to ask you out but I didn't have the courage too. Plus I figured a pretty girl like you had to have a boyfriend." He took a deep breath then continued. "But then that day when we were at our lockers and I saw you staring at me, I figured that was my chance. So I asked you to go to the dance with me. Then when we were at the dance you looked so beautiful I just had to kiss you. And ever since then I haven't been able to stop thinking about you. So Torrey now the only question left to ask is....will you be my girlfriend?"

I was speechless. I wanted to say yes. The words were at the tip of my tongue, but they wouldn't come out. So I leaned forward and kissed him. At first the kiss was soft and gentle but then i started kissing him harder, and he kissed me right back. I could taste the passion on his lips. His fingers were in my hair and before I knew what I was doing I slipped my hand under his shirt. I felt his chest and abs. Cole slipped his hand under my shirt and found his way to my bra clasp. He was about to undo it but stopped. He pulled back. Dammit why was he always the one to pull away from our kisses? He smirked at me. "Does that answer your question?" I asked. "Yes I believe it does" he said.
