Chanel’s hair made her look like a porcupine and it was clear that she didn’t need to be asked twice as she took Liam’s hand and he started to lead the way.
He winked at me. I knew what that meant, he would contact me soon and I forgot that Dwayne was with me. Until he said, “Great! Now, how the heck am I going to get home?”
I sighed, “On your bike.”
I was thinking about the magical night that I’d just had with Liam and not really paying attention to the places that Dwayne was scratching.
“That’s the thing.”
He kept on scratching and I watched until Liam and Chanel were no longer in sight. I wondered if I should call him tomorrow. Or maybe leave it for another day. I didn’t want to seem too keen; besides, we were both going to college soon. I was being too silly, thinking like a kid that we’d have a chance to be together. The time that we had was over. The only thing that we should be concentrating on was getting ready for college.
“Why are you sitting down scratching like that? You need to get home.”
“That’s the thing.”
“What?”
Dwayne was annoying me. This was the first proper conversation I’d ever had with him and yet I wished that it would abruptly end.
“We only came on one bike and my phone battery’s dead.”
“Shit,” I said as I realized that I didn’t even have my damn phone. It was with Chanel. We thought that it was better for us to bring one bag. No, she’d thought that. Maybe so that I wouldn’t so easily be able to back out of it.
“What the hell are we going to do?”
I sighed as I sat next to Dwayne who was scratching furiously.
“I’ll just lie here and scratch until it stops.”
I turned to look at him and saw that he wouldn’t have any balls left if he thought that way.
“You do that. I would leave you, but I can’t even figure out how to get out of here.”
“Maybe Liam will come back for us?”
“Shit, you’re right. If it was just me out here, then I wouldn’t have thought about that. I bet the moment, he drops Chanel he’ll think about you and come back.”
“Why?”
“Oh, cause he just popped your cherry and he’s finally with the girl that he’s wanted for so long.”
If he hadn’t been scratching, if he hadn’t been touching his balls, I would have kissed him. But for what he said, I took back my nasty thoughts about him. I helped him, as I started to scratch his leg. And it felt like forever, but he was right Liam did come back. But that didn’t make me smile as much as what Dwayne had just said did.
Chapter Six
“We need to stop doing this,” I purred as he started to study me with lust. It was written all over his face. My mom was out with his dad and they wouldn’t be back ’till late. Real late, and we were using that time to get to know each other. All over again.
“It’s not that I don’t enjoy it. It just feels wrong.”
“And that makes you want me even more.”
His eyes were undressing me as we stared at each other. Our eyes continued to be locked as we both headed up the stairs and toward my room.
“Besides, coming in through the front door is so much easier than climbing the tree. Sorry about the photo. Did I break it?”
I quickly changed the subject, remembering the other night when he climbed into my room and nearly broke the photo. The last one that was taken before he was taken away from me. A hit and run they’d called it. They never caught the person, but I knew that one day they’d find out who did it. Until that day, I kept his photo near my bedside just a reminder that I’d never forget and that not only would I go to college to get a degree, I’d make sure that the person spends the rest of their miserable life behind bars.
“I told you to forget it,” I said.
