"So are you going to be okay?" Hunter asks as he pulls into the driveway of your house and stops the car. "Yeah, I'll be fine! Thanks for asking," you say a with a smile. "You're welcome," he says, smiling back at you.
"So um...listen H. I really appreciate you picking me up tonight and talking to me. It was definitely a good thing that I got out of the house tonight," you say.
"Well, I enjoy being with you Sarah," he says, making you blush. You look away so he doesn't notice. "So um...I'm guessing that I'll see you tomorrow?" You say, opening the car door.
"Yeah! But wait! Sarah, hold on a minute. I need to tell you something..." he says.
You close the door and look at him. "What's up?"
"I have to say...I was kinda disappointed when your mom called," he says. "Why?" You ask.
He places one hand on the back of your neck and pulls you close until your noses touch again. "Because I was going to do this..."
You close your eyes and feel his soft lips touch yours. He gives you a long meaningful kiss, and you kiss him back until you're breathless.
"I love you," he says, looking into your eyes. "I love you too Hunter," you reply.
Your eyes start to get watery again and a few tears stream down your cheek. You're crying again. Not because you were sad, its because you're so happy that you have Hunter in your life. He's always taking care of you and making sure that you feel loved. He's your everything.
"Now, are you one hundred percent sure that you're going to be alright?" He asks, wiping your tears away. "I promise that I'll be fine," you reply with a smile. "Okay. But seriously if they start arguing again and you need to get out of the house, do you promise that you'll call me?" He says. "Hunter, that happens quite often. I don't want to bug you..." you say.
He shakes his head. "You're not bugging me. If you need anything, you can call me. I don't care if you call me at 3:00 in the morning and tell me that you need to get out of the house. I'll come get you. And I really mean that."
"Okay. I promise that I'll call you if I need anything," you say with a smile.
He kisses you several times on your forehead and your cheek, and one final kiss on your lips. "Goodnight Sarah."
"Goodnight Hunter," you say, giggling.
After you get out of his car, you make your way up to the front door and knock on it. You turn around and wave goodbye at Hunter as you see him pulling out of your driveway. You don't know how you're going to sleep tonight with that kiss on your mind, but you're much happier now than you were before and that's all that matters.
