"Shotgun!" Yelled Abner. It look all seven of us just to wake him up.

He ran to the car and opened up the passenger side door, jumping in. I knew we were going to have to take two cars so I grabbed my keys off the counter and walked to my car. I waited for Adri and Antonia to hop on the back and Atlas in the front. They never came. I opened my door and looked out above the car. They were all cramming into Caleb's car and were pushing Blake out towards my car. I rolled my eyes, got back in, and slammed the car door. Moments later Blake silently got in the car and kept his eyes forward.

"I know exactly where we're going," I mumbled.

He looked at me confused. "Where?"

I sighed, "Look-out Peak."

Look-out Peak is the one place all couples go to, to make out. We go there to scare the crap out of the couples we see as vulnerable. We search out a car with a distracted couple, Atlas will jump into the back, and put his face in the middle of the seats. Then he says something and hops out.

I started the car and drove on auto pilot letting the silence grow between us. Finally the last turn came and we were at Look-out Peak. I looked around and saw Caleb's car tucked into the wood. I sighed knowing I wasn't suppose to see them.

They're trying way too hard, I thought.

I pulled into a parking space and turned the car off. It felt like hours of silence until he spoke.

"Isadora, can I ask you something?" He said.

"You just did," I said laughing.

He laughed quietly and looked up staring me in the eye. "What did I do? I mean to you. Why do you shut me out?" He had a look of desperation in his eyes.

I took a sharp breath in. No one's ever asked me that. No one knows why I shut everyone out, except Antonia.

Blake's POV:
I knew as soon as the words stopped coming out of my mouth it was a mistake. Sadness over came her eyes and she looked down to her lap. I didn't know what I was doing, but I took my hand under chin and lifted her head up.

"You don't have to tell me it was stupid of me to ask. I'll-"

"Can you just hold me? I need some one to hold me," she said hastily.

I was taken back. "Of course," I whispered. I pulled her over and held her. I grabbed her hand and stroked it. They were soft, but had the signs of a musician on them. It seemed like hours until she looked up at me, her eyes filled with tears. I got lost in her beautiful eyes.

I lowered my head, that put our lips centimeters apart from each other. I don't know how it happened, but soon our lips were together. Her lips moved with mine and I felt as one with her. I opened her mouth with mine and I entangled my hands in her hair. I grabbed the hem if her shirt and started to pull it up, but she pushed me away ending the kiss. She was wide eyed and looked scared.

"Isadora-," I said reaching for her.

"No. No," she said fumbling for the car door handle. The door finally opened and she fell out, landing in her butt. She raced away towards the woods.

I slumped back in my seat and sighed. I screwed up. Not long after she ran, a knock came on the window. It was Antonia. I opened the door and tried to explain.

"What did you do!?" She screamed at me before I could get a word out. She pulled her arm back and balled her hand into a fist. I had it coming to me. I let her arm spring forward, hitting me right in the mouth. I deserved this.
