CHAPTER 7 - Let's run

I was very close to Ana now, if I moved my head five centimeters I would kiss her. And it was something I wanted to do.

Ana's pretty pink lips were a temptation, I almost let the urge to kiss her speak louder than reason. It's not the right time yet.

I can't risk kissing her right now. If I cross that line she might end up getting mad at me. Even more so if it's her first kiss.

Knowing that, I pulled away from her a bit.

"I thought you were going to kiss me." Ana said.

"Me either."

Ana's face turned red. She probably said jokingly, I don't think she would ever expect that answer from me.

A moment of silence hung in the air. I felt a little embarrassed, Ana must be too.

"I have to go. See you tomorrow." I said to break the mood.

"Yes, yes, yes. It's getting late, I'll walk you to the door."

After the awkward moment, I left Ana's house.

Upon returning home, I realized I was alone. My dad and stepmother come home from work around 6pm and my sister should be home around that time too.

I have almost an hour until they arrive. I will take this time to run and do the exercises.

"I have an idea." I said out loud.

I changed my clothes and left the house. I went to a neighboring house and knocked on the door.

"Who is he?"

"It's me again."

I went back to Ana's house, who opened the door.

"Would you like to run with me?" I asked.

"Run?"

"Yeah, running alone is boring. Since you're home alone, I thought maybe you'd like to get away for a bit."

Ana laughed and said.

"I'll run with you. Just wait for me to change."

After 10 minutes, we went for a run together. I had to go slower, Ana is not used to running.

After we ran a long distance, she fell to the ground.

"What are you doing? We have all the way back." I said.

"I can't take it anymore. My legs are hurting so much."

I found it funny to see her in this state. I held out my hand and helped her to her feet.

So I bent down and said.

"Climb on my back."

"Is sure?" Ana asked.

"It's my fault you're in this state. I should have run a shorter distance."

I ended up exaggerating. For Ana, who has just started running, I should have defined a shorter distance.

"Fine. I'll climb on your back."

With Ana on top of me, I started walking. She rested her head on my shoulder, her body against my back and her ass in my hand.

Yes, I was holding her by the ass. I thought she was going to be annoyed, but she didn't show any dissatisfaction. Unlike her breasts, her ass can be considered quite fleshy.

I can't wait to dive into every inch of that body. If all goes well, Ana will be the first.

"You're quiet. What are you thinking about?" Ana asked.

I felt goose bumps all over my body. When Ana spoke, hot breath came out of her mouth and hit my ear.

"Nothing in particular." I said.

"Sorry to be a bother."

"What do you mean?"

"You're having to carry me home."

This girl is very kind. She is worried about something so simple.

"If you were a nuisance I wouldn't have offered to carry you on my back."

Ana relaxed her body after my speech. I could feel her body go limp on top of mine.

We continued talking along the way, we laughed a lot. It took a lot longer than planned to get back, but it was worth it.

I left Ana at her house and went back to mine.

"I arrived." I said.

"Where were you?" Aline said.

"Running. Where's Dad?"

"He's in the kitchen. Today is his cooking day."

Everyday someone cooks, that's cool. I went to the kitchen.

"Dad."

"Yes?."

"Did the onion hurt you, Dad? I'm here to help you, no need to cry."

My dad was cutting an onion and his eyes filled with tears.

"Stop being silly and say what you were going to say before."

"On Saturday, can you set up a meeting with Irina's parents? There's something we need to tell you all."

"Yes I can. Is it something important?"

I gave a smile. I'll play with him a bit.

"It's something very important." I said.

"Tell me."

"Let it for later."

"Now."

I sighed. It made it look like I was getting up the courage to tell him. I even motioned for him to sit down.

"It's a delicate thing. Please don't be mad." I said.

"What could you have done to make me angry?"

"The reason why I went to my grandmother's house and changed so much was because of that. A month and a half ago Irina started getting nausea."

I stopped for a second. Again I took a deep breath, in a serious tone I said.

"She took the pregnancy test and it came back positive."

"WHAT? ARE YOU PLAYING NE?"

My father turned red with anger. The reason he got angry is obvious, I'm only 18, I'm a high school student and I don't have a job. My life is not stable, the same goes for Irina. How are we going to support a child?

Seeing that my father was very angry, I decided not to continue this.

"Of course this is a joke." I said.

When he heard my words his face returned to normal. He put a hand to his chest, took a deep breath and said.

"Want to kill your father?"

"It was just a joke. It's not a serious matter, don't worry."

"Fortunately."

My father got up and went back to chopping the onion.

"I will continue to make dinner." he said.

"And I'm going to take a shower. I'm all sweaty."

I left the kitchen and went to the bathroom to wash up. Afterwards, I had dinner with the family.

I noticed a change in my sister's attitude, she is more docile.

After that I brushed my teeth and slept.

The next morning I had breakfast with the family. This is something I have never done in my previous life.

We left the house and met up with Jay, Ana and Irina.

"Good Morning." I said.

Irina turned around angrily, I didn't understand why. Did I do something wrong?

"Good Morning." said Jay.

"Good morning, are we going to run again today?" asked Ana.

"Sure, same time as yesterday?"

Ana agreed.

"Did you two go out for a run yesterday?" my sister asked.

"Yes, it's good for health." I said.

We continued to talk as we walked.

At school.

"Good morning Julia." I spoke to my desk neighbor.

"Good Morning."

"What class do we have today?"

Julia gave me the schedule. Classes went by quickly, actually the week went by quickly.

This week, I had lunch every time with Julia. She was a little more comfortable with me.

In the afternoon I ran with Ana, our relationship also improved. You could say we got a little closer.

I haven't interacted with Olivia yet. I won't bother now, I'll wait until the week of the first test. I will ask her to help me with some as an excuse to approach her.

Let's leave that aside for now. I will focus on the current situation.

Today is Saturday, now I have Irina's parents in front of me.
