Chapter 9

We were walking through the park to Rebecca's house, "ok, ok what about Rebecca?"

She's going out with the captain of the football team" Emily replied

"How on earth...you do know its Rebecca we're talking about"

"Uh huh" emily nods licking her ice cream, she hardly got any sugar in her body thanks to her parents, they were always so strict, so when she a chance she'd buy an ice cream for herself.

"I kissed him" i said before i remembered i wasn't going to tell the gossip to the group again.

Her icecream falls to the ground as she stares at me in disbelief. "What, when where and how?"

"I kissed him, last night in the motel room---"

"Woah woah Woah in the room? At night? What were you about to do?"

"No that was by accident, you see he sleeping and i went to get a glass of water then i had this urge to kiss him in him in his sleep so i did then he woke up and we left as soon as we got in front of your house i hugged him"

Emily stares at me like i was a lunatic "when were you planning on saying this"

"Now" i respomd

"Diana sophia little-hood" she replies "if you have things like this to say, say it to me right after it happens"

"That's not my middle name"

"Not important right now"

We were all dressed up and talking "let's go over the plan again come in with the police and look like the bomb" Cindy announced

"Em" i say biting thee bottom of my lip "i don't think only the police would scare them of"

"What are you getting at?" Louise questions as everyone stares in dis belief

"All im saying those guys look like tough people"

"But ..you said yourself that in the middle of night when you went to take a walk you lost those guys when police showed up"

"They probably lost their way, anything can happen" i start to complain.

"We understand your scared but you don't have to make big plans you'll always have us." Rebecca states

"I have to go home he's coming in 40 minutes... hopefully" I say the last word in a whisper

As soon as i got home my mum was harassing me with photos, "you look so pretty and i didn't have to spend a cent" she continued

"Muum stop" i whined

"Ok baby , i love you."

The bell rang.

"Ok one last photo"

i open the door to see Brian.he was wearing a white tux and looking fresh. I gave him a tight hug nearly tearing up but I blink back the tears while we pose for our photo to be taken.

We went to the ball in one fancy car. I didn't really feel comfortable in it because i kept thinking he stole it.

"don't worry i bought this car" he reasurred me "I didn't think you would worry much about me" he mentions

"Of course I will, I guess over the last few days I've grown feelings for you and most from you being you"

"Ok I see you"

"So you going to tell me what happened"

"I ruin tonight, my one night to be normal again in the last two years, never"

He took me in the ball clinging our hands together. He had a bright smile.

I didn't see the girls mainly because i wasn't even looking for them because i only felt like cherishing this moment with him for as long as I could because if I didn't who knows when this moment will come again.

The night went by fast, despite all the police that showed up and all the effort we put in for our final death day, yet nothing happened actually it was a pretty normal night almost too perfect and that gave a perfect reason to worry.

I was standing beside the punch when Brian asked me to dance.

"May I have this dance"

"Hmmm I don't know"

"Please don't leave me hanging"

"And how long can you .. 'hang'"

He smirks and stands up straight, whispers into my ears saying "not very long" he takes my punch and puts it on the table staring into my eyes at all times, then slips his hands on my waist and drags me to the dance floor.

I wrap my hands around his neck as we sway to the slow music. Eye meeting eye, face facing face, warmth embracing warmth (ok I'll stop) we kissed then we headed home.

In the car

"You know I know you kissed me the other night"

"You were so peaceful and cute and nice and I just had to taste you but ignore me I'm just mortifying myself right now"

"No your not it's cute"

We got around my apartment and we walked up the stairs together I opened my door and ...
