Complicated

His voice is low with what he says next, "I love you Gracie" my voice hitches down my throat.

"And I understand this is not what you want to hear now, remember the first time we met?" He holds each side of my head.

I nod, "yes in that low lighted room at the party, it was September fifth and the time was around eleven twenty-nine pm" strangely I have the whole day memorized because of how I replayed the scene.

He lets out a light chuckle and I drop my hands down, "na the first time we met was at camp. You also told me our kiss was your first"

My mind runs back to that 'kiss' I had forced myself to forget, "you're that Aaron" my eyes are perplexed.

"We sat around the campfire, we were given such weak dares" we both laugh at the memory

"Your dare was to kiss me and you were really shy about it but all I could think of was, 'wow this gorgeous ginger is about to kiss me'" his laugh is so calm, soft and melodic.
I pull his neck down so quickly that he doesn't get the time to adjust to what is going on.

"And this ginger is about to kiss the fuck out of you again" I run my fingers viciously through his hair.
