"You want to date someone who thinks a sexy male like you shouldn't be addicted to Shoujo manga andShall We Datevideo games?"

Logan grinned, leaning close enough so his lips just barely touched mine. "I'm not addicted, but to answer your question, I do want to date someone who thinks I'm extremely attractive and secretly adores my Shoujo manga addiction and video game dating apps.”

I closed the distance and kissed him, and he smiled before returning it. This one was a little longer than the last, and when he pulled away, I was left wanting more.

He chuckled quietly, leaning in to whisper in my ear.

"We can kiss more later. I promise."

"I'm holding you to that," I remarked but knew Logan would keep his word. His hand slipped in mine, and we walked hand-in-hand down the driveway to where his car was parked.

"You drove today?" I asked. He pulled out his keys and nodded.

"I want to take you somewhere else for our date. You up for it?" he asked, giving me a playful grin.

"As long as it’s fun and involves me kicking your ass at some type of activity, I'm down," I replied. He unlocked the car and opened the passenger door, extending his hand to help me inside.

I thanked him and relaxed in the black leather seat of the red sports car, watching him close my door before he came around the front and opened the driver’s side.

"Trust me, it will be fun, but I'll beat you even with my eyes closed."

I gave him a confident smirk as he started the car; his gold eyes twinkled with amusement as they met mine.

"Challenge accepted," I replied.

PROMISING FUTURE AND NIGHTMARES

"Are you excited or nervous?" I asked, enjoying the swaying motion of the swing.

"A little bit of both," Logan admitted as he stared up at the night sky.

Logan had taken me to the fair that was being held at the park on the other side of town.

Today was the last day, and everyone, both young and old, were excited to spend the end of summer enjoying a good time with friends and loved ones.

After having fun at multiple booths and eating a bunch of treats, we went to a fancy restaurant.

Our attire was perfect for the occasion, and I kept finding myself staring at Logan who wore black tailored pants and a red silk dress shirt.

We enjoyed a lovely meal before driving down to this little park where we used to play when we were little. It was always nice to enjoy the peaceful atmosphere as we swung.

His shoulder-length black hair looked amazing, especially with the new addition of blond highlights he'd gotten done in preparation for his freshman year at Brighten Academy.

"Have you started planning for university?" Logan asked.

I sighed, turning to stare at his curious expression. He knew I didn't like talking about the topic, but it was only five days before he'd be off to the number one magic school and I'd be left alone.

"I'm looking into it, but they're all so far away. I don't want to leave my mom alone for so long. My neighbor is willing to check on her, and she still has many friends to talk to, but I just want to ensure she takes her medication," I confessed.

"The neighbor Alice always steals jewelry from? She's super nice. I'm sure she would check on your mom with no problem," Logan suggested.

"I know. I just . . . ," I trailed off, unsure of how to explain how I was feeling and the numerous thoughts that plagued my mind whenever the topic was brought up.

"You don't want her alone, even if it's for school," Logan finished.

I gave him an apologetic look.

"Yes. She doesn't bring it up, but I know she hates being alone. If I go to school in another town, or even country, Alice would have to come with me. She can't be far from me for that long. A few days is fine but not weeks or months. I wish there were a school closer so I could come check on her during weekends."
