Dakota's POV
"My God Harry, please don't crash my car," I pleaded to Harry, wherever he was taking me.
"Don't worry, I won't crash your baby. By the way, we're almost there."

"P ball?" I asked surprisingly

"P ball?" I asked surprisingly. "You're going down, I'm a master. I once worked at the paint ball place downtown."
"Okay Ms. Queen of Paint Ball, we'll be on separate teams, if I win, I get to kiss you after the game, and if you win, I'll get you Chick-Fi-A with a large order of fries cause you seem to get them a lot during the summer."
"Oo, someone was noticing!" I chuckled. I kinda hope I lose, cause I really want to kiss those plum pink lips of his.

During paint ball

"Abbey! I'm pinned, you have to help me!" I exclaimed to my teammate on my team. If you're pinned, that means you were shot and can't move until that person who shot you is shot. Then you're free.
"Adam! What are you doing?" Yelled an idiot. He just ran in the middle of the building where he can easily get shot. He's definitely an amateur. Wait, everyone's distracted, that gives me an idea...
I ducked under a tire and grabbed the flag.
"I've got it! That's game!" I yelled.
"Okay, okay, you won, but I call a rematch in my b-day," Harry complained.
"Your b-day isn't until next year, ya got a long time to wait till that rematch buddy. I wonder if you'll even remember it."
~~~
"We're home!"
"How was school babes?" Mrs. Keith asked cheerfully.
"Good," I said, "in the car ride, Harry lost a bet and he's getting me Chick-Fa-A for dinner, we'll be back at six." By the way, the Keith's eat dinner at like 4:30 in the evening, so that's why we'll be home so late.
"So I lost a bet in the car, is that it." Harry said while he was driving me to Chick-Fa-A.
"Yep. What, I can't just say, 'Hey, we ditched study hall and played p ball,' that wouldn't go over well."
After we ordered, I learned about Harry's childhood and how he lost his parents at a carnival. He's said he always run away from places cause they just didn't feel right.
"You wanna know something?" Harry asked me.
"Sure."
"The Keith's home is like my safe place. I feel protected. Erica is like my littlest sister, always likes to hang out with me. Geneva is the mysterious sis who I break rules with. Kota, you are I think gorgeous, smart, and know French and Spanish. Tu me sors aussi de l'école et on se fait des souvenirs qui durent toute une vie. (You also help me ditch school and make it fun and make memories that'll last a lifetime)" he whispered the last part softly.
After we were done, we decided to take a walk on a trail.
"How'd you find this trail, it's beautiful?" Harry asked.
"I actually found it last year, Waliyha, Lexi, and I were bored, so we decided to try to get lost, then find our way back. But we just ended up here, just a block away from where we live." I chuckled.
"Kota, tu sais que je t'ai toujours aimé." (Hey Kota, you know I've always liked you)
"Je connais. (I know)"
"Puis-je t'embrasser? (Can I kiss you?)"
Right when he said that, my lips were on his in a heartbeat. Our lips moved slowly together lightly. Nothing eager, just lovely and romantic.
"C'était incroyable. (That was amazing)" he said. "Hey, you and me are both good at hiding things and keeping things from our fostered parents, will you be my secret girlfriend and we could make out in our room?" he asked finally.
"My God, you don't know how long I've been waiting for you to say that."
"So is that a yes?"
And I answered his question by putting my lips back on his.
"I'll take that as a yes."

In the garage

"So, let's review. No holding hands. No longing looks into each others eyes. If we wanna say something that'll give our relationship away, we say it in French. If-"
"I've got it D. You've been saying the list through the hole car ride.
"My God, if you mess whatever we have up, I'm blaming you."
"Okay."
"Hello kids, how was Chick-Fi-La?" Mrs. Keith asked.
"Nice, delicious as always." I said.
We did our night routine quickly, and now Harry and I were in our beds in comfortable silence until he asked, "Kota? What are we now?"
"What do you want us to be?"
"I asked you. A question first."
"Ugh. Well... right now, someone who I really like and maybe make out with every once in a while. What do you think we are?"
"Well, literally everything you said except more of the last part." he said, referring to making out.
"Yeah, I'll give ya that, except we have to do it in private."
"Can I tell the boys?"
"Maybe like in a week or so."
"Dakota! Harry! I know you guys are done getting ready, now get to bed!" Mr. Keith said.

In the middle of the night

"Harry, if you have a journal, you write things in it dummy!" I said to him while we are hanging out in my treehouse."
"But what can I write abou- wait, I know!"
"What"
"I'll write about how amazing you were in bed an how you were suc-"
"Kota, Kota, Kota, Kot-" Harry interrupted
"Ugh, what, I'm sleeping." I said groggily.
"Je ne peux pas dormir, puis-je dormir avec toi? (I can't sleep, can i sleep with you?)" he asked.
"Ugh, sure, but ya gotta get up in the morning of ya don't wanna get caught."
"Yes, thanks D qui je pense est belle. (Yes, thanks D who I think is beautiful)"
I think that night was one of the best nights of my life.
