When I tell him he can come back in he runs and jumps onto my bed right away. We cuddle the way we did the first night that we were together, except closer.
He pulls me in and I turn around and kiss him.
Our lips are together for longer than before. His hand goes around to my back and he hugs me tight. His other hand is on my butt, but I don't mind. It's the best thing I've ever felt. When I pull away from his lips, we both smile, and we stay in that position for a few minutes, before going back to the original position we were in.
The next morning I don't really mind him staying in my room while I get dressed, but I still turn my back to him.
"So what are you gonna wear next week?" He asks me.
"What's next week?"
"The reaping."
"Oh, right. Um, I actually don't know yet, how about you?"
" I don't know either. probably just a nice shirt and dress pants."
"Hey um, about they reaping... remember how I said I don't want to volunteer?"
"Yeah, why?"
"Well, I don't want to lose you."
"Do you want me to not volunteer?" He asks.
"Kinda, yeah."
"Well then I won't, I promise." He kisses me on my forehand, and then goes home.
