The Truth of Love

Chapter One

I light up a quick cigarette, and take a long inhale, looking around at the empty park and surrounding trees. Ebony gives me a smack on the head, hard enough to make me drop it.

"I told you! No smoking near me!"

I give her a playful scowl and rub my head in a very dramatic way. Ebony curls her lips into that wonderful smile of hers and pushes herself off the car bonnet, onto the grass.

"That really hurt you know" My words are just for effect and I do my best to look upset at her.

Ebony wraps her arms around my waist. She's taller, 24 years old. Dark hair, green eyes.
"Would you like me to kiss it better?" I hear her whisper in my ear.

Trying to hide a smile, I nod and let her slowly push me towards the car.

Without warning, Ebony shoves me down onto the car bonnet. I'm only 16, she's so much stronger. She holds my wrists and can't stop herself smiling.

I'm smiling back, because I'm happy that she is here with me, because her happiness means the world to me.

"Tough" Ebony growls playfully as she moves closer, and pulls me into a kiss.
