The Park

He’s doing that thing again. I really wish he wouldn’t. Oh what am I talking about. I love it when he looks at me like that and I can’t think. I could live off of that look.

“Erica, I don’t get it. Why were you hiding from me?” Darn. I thought I had been saved by the bell.

“I didn’t know it was you!” I really need to stop lying before I get myself in trouble.

“Oh… then who did you think I was?” Crap.

“Ummm, I thought you were…” Think Erica. Think!!

“You thought I was…” Oh no he totally knows I’m lying.

“Mr. Steve!” Phew.

“Ohhh, now I can see why you were hiding.” he laughed. I don’t get it, he has to know I’m lying. Maybe he’s just playing along…

“Don’t you think this place is so pretty?” Please let the hiding this go now!

“Erica…” He stopped. Oh my gosh this is so cute, we’re standing under a willow tree on top of a hill! He’s looking into my eyes. I can tell he’s trying to say something… “Do you want to kiss me as much as I want to kiss you?”
