Summer Love

17

While we finally managed to sit ourselfs in the comfy train seats I couldn't help but ask.

''How did yous know?''

''Oh Izzybear''Grandad said.

''Wait,let the two have something to eat while we explain''Nana suggested.

''Good idea.I'm starving''Joey laughed.

''Yeah I thought so''said Nana while handing us the glorious sandwiches.

After an adventure like this,train seats felt like absolute thrones and simple sandwiches were a big feast.

''So,when Joey asked for our permission to do all this we were shocked''Nana started off.

''Waaaait...Hold on a second...You knew from the very start?''

''Yeah obviously''Said Grandad.I narrowed my eyes to Joey.

''What ?''he laughed.''Love I couldn't just take you to the Tatrs without your grandparents also your guardians for the summer,permission''

''Okay,I guess that was smart.Continue Nana.''

''We weren't so sure about all of that at the start but we gave in,remebering the old times.So yous left and we kind of followed you''

What!''exclaimed Joey.''We never planned that''

''I know but kids,in fairness now,we weren't just going to let you go on your own.Seriously.Now shall I continue?''

''Yes ''We both agreed.

''So we took the same train as you two and well we camouflaged well.''

''How come we didn't notice you at the train station?''I asked,confused.

''Yous just didn't look around well enough.Anyways,John followed you of course,leaving me down there all alone.It was all going fine,we thought yous would enjoy it and in his own time John would reveal himself.But of course the dope-''

''Hey!I'm not a  dope!''Grandad protested.

''Okay well anyways,he lost you.Not knowing what to do, he came down and we informed the police''

''Was it not Patrick?''I asked,looking at Joey  with even grater confusion.He didn't say anything...Only focused on his ham and mayonaise sandwich.

''No what are you talking about?''Asked Nana.

''Oh no,nevermind'

I assured her it was nothing important.If I was right then Joey must have imagined Patrick...Confusing but logical.He was seeking some kind of hope and Patrick seemed like a perfect excuse to carry on.

''Nana we're so sorry for all this''

''Yeah''Joey nodded.

''Kids,we all made a  tiny little mistake but Hey,at least we'll have something to laugh at next year''

''Yeah''The three of us agreed before breaking into laughter.As long as I am right,by the signals Joey has been giving me,we weren't gonna worry the two with the fact that I nearly died out there...

                                                          .      .     .

It was midnight when the train appeared in front of our house.The minute Tory saw us she ran up to me,embracng my tired body into a hug.

''Oh God Iz!I was so scared for the both of you.Ashton and I were going mental!''She squealed.

''Well actually you were the only person here going mental''responded Ashton.We all broke int o a huge FAMILY laugh.

''There was nothing to worry about''I lied.

''Ok well I better go now''Joey said while leaving a short peck on my cheek.

''I'll walk you home''I declared.Of course we weren't actaully going to head towards his house...More likely the Love forest.

We sat there for almost an hour talking and laughing about everything that happened.Then we kissed of course,and I cherished every second of it.

''I'm sorry Isabel''Joey spoke up,lookign into my eyes.

''For what?''

''Just about all the bad parts of our adventure''He spoke,gently brushing my cheeks with his fingers.

'Don't be silly...It was a bit of Grandad's fault too''I giggled,snugling up close to his chest.

''I'm serious Iz''Joey said in a very serious tone.

I leaned in and soflty kissed him on the lips.

''I forgive you''I whispered.

After that I went home.Alan was asleep and Tory was sitting in the kitchen doing her nails.I quietly sneaked in and collapsed onto the chair.

''What's wrong hun?''She asked.

''I am happy''

''Oh really?''she asked,a bit surprise to my sudden confesion.

''I am back here again,in Bluebell being myself.And it's so okay .Like I mean,I don't have to pretend.I have a percet place where I belong and a perfect family.And Oh Tory...I think I'm in Love''

''Yeah I can see that.Joey is overwhelmed by you too.The way he looks at you is just-''

''The way Ashton looks at you''I finished her sentence,smiling like an idiot.

''Yeah''she smiled back.

''Well I better go to sleep now.Thrust me sleeping in a forest for a few days straight wasn't the comfiest''

''Oh Dear,I can imagine that''

''Yeah.Goodnight hun''I said while exiting the kitchen.

I took a long,and I mean a long shower before falling asleep.All the beautiful moments that I was about to expirience in the next few days,were waiting for me.
