“You have no idea how long I’ve wanted you to ask that.”

I kissed him. Me. Erica. I got onto my tip toes, put my arms around his neck and kissed him. He wrapped his arms around my waist and kissed me back. It was magic.

“I thought you did.” he smiled. How cute, he waited until after the kiss to respond to my answer!

“Hey Brenden, what time is it?” It almost looked like it was getting dark, but there was no way we had been here that long!

“It’s 8:00, why?” No. Way.

“I have to go. An hour ago!” I didn’t have time to say anything else, I feel bad just leaving him like that, but at least it was a dramatic exit!

Home

“ERICA ELIZABETH ! You said you were going to be home an hour ago and you left your cell phone here!”

“Sorry Mom, I lost track of time, we came home as soon as we realized what time it was!”

“Who came home? You, Megan, and Lisa?”

“Yeah!”

“Hate to break it to you, but they both came over looking for you about a half hour ago.”
