scanned the books on the shelf and took out three.
"You done?" Calvin called over his shoulder.
"Yeah."
"Wait only three?"
"Yeah, they're good writers."
"I trust you."
We Checked out just as the bell was ringing. He walked Me to class and then left.
"So the project will be partner-" The teacher was saying.
Lisa and I looked at each other, both with a nod. After class Lisa hitched a ride with Me, so We could get an early start. Since Calvin beat her to the car in a fair race, she has to sit in the back. It wasn't fair. Calvin Had much better legs than Lisa. Me too for that matter. Calvin took off to his house, Owen standing on his porch.
"Okay, What music do you like?" I asked once in My room.
" Got any Death cab for cutie?"
"Really?" i looked over at Her, and She nodded.
"Most people don't listen to them."
"I listen to them with Calvin all the time."
Well that little shit, I thought sitting down, and opening a book From Auden. Two hours later We took a break, sitting on My bed, eating whatever we found in the cupboards. There had to Be at least twenty empty bottles of soda between the two of Us.
"Dakota I-" Dad paused When He Saw Us.
"This Is Lisa. She's a friend From School."
"Hi!" Lisa waved, with Her happy smile.
Lisa and Calvin could Be twins.
"We have a project for school."
"Oh, Then your half way there for what I need. It's Nice to meet you Lisa. I was planing on having a romantic Dinner for Carmen and-"
"Romantic. No Thanks I won't be here."
"Where will you go?"
"Maybe Lisa's. Or Leah's."
"Perfect." Dad said.
And hour later I said good bye to Dad, sent Lisa on Her way, and Made My way to Calvin's. He opened the door, rubbing His eyes. He was wearing His shoes, Jeans, and Hoddie, no Shirt. He looked out, and squinted.
"Oh Hey! Come on in!" He moved aside.
"If your sleeping-"
"Just come in."
I walked in and sat on the couch, where a crumpled blanket was balled at on side.
"My dad is throwing this romantic dinner for His Girlfriend, so I left."
"You wanted to give them the house, Or my guess is your not the romantic type."
"Little bit of both." I said. "More of the not romantic type." I added when He looked over at Me.
He grabbed two can's of soda and set one on the table in front of Me.
"I didn't know you where sleeping."
"I really wasn't. I was falling in and out."
"Where's your parents?"
"Work. My sisters over at My aunts house."
"You and Lisa could Be Siblings."
"She's My cousin."
"So Happiness runs in the family?
"Yeah, The wells ran dry when My aunt had the twins. Lisa got lucky."
"So That's Lisa's siblings, right."
"No Her toes."
"Don't Be sarcastic with me."
"Why not?"
"I'm the queen of sarcasm."
"Well I'm the king."
"I thought You where the king of Happiness."
"I'm a Guy of Many talents."
"Like what?" I grabbed the soda off the table.
"Well I finished the project in an hour. You finished in three."
"Cause We took a break."
"Yeah, Lisa has to have breaks. What did you talk about?"
"Nothing." I took a drink.
"Come on!" He laughed hitting My arm, "I wanna know."
"We talked about clothes."
He stared at Me. "Okay, really. I want to Know."
"We talked about Clothes!" I insisted. "We talked about what She was going to wear for the date she has, Then We Talked about music."
"And you got out alive. Good for you." He hit my arm, as We heard a heavy rain begin to fall.
"Oh Come on! It was really sunny, today." I said.
Calvin took My soda, and hopped up head into to the kitchen.
"That wasn't rude."
"Come Here."
"No. I'll have to get up."
"Just do it."
I got up and walked into the kitchen He was filling a mug with water. There was another filled with water on the counter next to a box of hot coco.
"Why are you making Hot Coco?"
"Well When Elise is upset Mom makes Her hot Coco if it's cold out, and Bakes something if it's warm."
"It's May."
"Yeah, but it's raining."
he fixed the Coco and We sat on the couch.
"Okay, I found another of your hidden talents. This is pretty damn good."
"You cussed!"
"Sorry." Although it sounded like a question.
"I never heard you cuss before."
"I cussed."
"Not in front of Me."
"Oh. Well, cussing makes you sound stupid."
"You just cussed."
"Well I'm stupid sometimes."
"Your not stupid, your a teenager."
Your a teenager. Some how those three words Made Me feel small, and Well, like a teenager. I wasn't sure If I liked it or not, But it was there, hanging in the air.
"Are you going to Be here for the Fourth of July?"
"I think so, yeah."
"We have this huge block party. It's pretty fun. by the time it gets dark all the teenagers head out to the park, to light off stuff of our own. We just chill there. It's where all the teens hang out."
"what's the park called?"
"The park." He laughed.
"Oh." I smiled, feeling dumb.
"You'll think you'll be able to go?"
"If Carmen sticks around I'll be able to do whatever I want."
"He ignores you for Her?"
"Yeah." I said, taking a drink.
"So You don't like Her?"
"I like Her enough."
"As much as Anyone could Like a new Girl?"
"Pretty much. I don't really know Her, And I don't want to."
"Do you want to know Me More?"
I put My elbow on the back of the couch, and rested My head in My hand.
"I do."
"Good."
"Good?"
"Good cause your not going to shake Me anytime soon."
"I don't think I'll ever get to shake you."
"Yeah. That's the good thing about Me. Once I'm in, you can't get Me out."
"No Matter how I Hard I try?"
"No Matter how hard you try. You could Try for years, and I'll still be there."
"As Of right Now I don't want to shake you."
"Good."
"Good?" I smiled.
"Good Cause I don't want you to Shake Me."
"Well-"
He leaned forward and kissed Me.
My head raised from My hand and I blinked at Him.
"Sorry." He muttered.
"It's okay." I found Myself Saying.
He gave Me a lazy smile, and Kissed Me again. He set His cup on the coffee table and took then took Mine, and Put it next to his. He slowly pushed My shoulders and I let him Push Me back onto the arm rest. He smiled, as He pulled on My hips, Making My head slide off of the arm rest.
"That's Better."
His hands where on the sides of My head as He bent down and Kissed Me again. As He deepened the kiss He lowered His body onto Mine, I stopped the Kiss.
"I'm Sorry."
"What's wrong? Want Me to stop?"
I shook My head, and Put my hands on his head.
"Then what is it Dakota?" He looked over My face.
"I don't really know how to Kiss."
"I don't really care." He smiled, bringing His lips back down to Mine.
My stomach felt like it was in a million tight knots. Still, that wasn't enough to stop Me from Putting My fingers into His hair and giving a soft tug. A soft noise came from The back of His throat, and He kissed Me Harder. The door opened and He jumped away from me. We grabbed Our cups, and took a drink looking at the doorway.
"Aunt Maggie said-"
The twelve year old paused.
"You must Be Dakota. Lisa talks about you all the time. Now I can See why. Your really pretty."
Calvin smiled, and looked over at Me.
"I'm Elise."
"Who has some homework I'm guessing?" Calvin said.
"Right."
"Wait what Did Maggie say?"
Elise looked from Me to Calvin, a big smile coming into place.
"Never mind." She giggled and ran from sight.
A Couple of second later I heard feet on the stairs.
"I'll Be back." Calvin set down His cup, and Followed after Her.
A Minuet later, He came Back, holding a Cd case, His big Smile in place. I looked down at the text I got.
"My Dad's done. I have to go." I walked to the door, and Pulled it open.
"Before you go, Take this." He handed Me the Cd. "Listen to number four." He kissed Me twice slowly, pulling Back with a smile. "Sleep well."
"Bye."
"You need Me to walk you home?" He asked, as I was on the side walk.
"No thanks."
"You sure."
"Good night Calvin."
"I'll miss you!"
I waved a hand and jumped the curb in front Of My house. I played Number four. Stolen, By Dashboard Confessional.
~***~
When I first woke, up I had no idea where I was. One, cause the blankets where over My head, and Two, Dad and Carmen where sitting on My bed faces wide With Smiles. I took the blankets off and jerked back, eyebrows pulled together as I took in their faces.
"Can I help you with Something?" I asked, looking from Dad to Carmen.
Carmen's hand shot out, fingers pointed. Again I jumped back, then took Her hand. As I squinted at the rock on Her hand Three things Hit Me. One They loved each other, Two, Things with My parents Where really over, Three, I think I love Calvin.
"I'm Really Happy for You." I jumped Up, putting on shoes, My jacket, and Grabbing the Cd. "But there's something I really Have to do."
I ran from The house and Knocked on Calvin's door. He opened the Door Smile already in place. I held up My hand as I bent over. Man I really needed to get out More.
"Dakota." He put a Hand on My back and one on My shoulder. "Babe, are you okay?"
I snapped up and took in a deep breath.
"Why'd You give Me this song?"
"Cause I think I love you."
"I have to do Something." I ran down the walk way then ran back. "I think I love you too." I kissed His cheek and I left him on the porch.
Carmen and Dad Where still sitting On My bed. I hopped back In and tossed the covers over Me. I put My head in My hands.
"Get Out Dad. Carmen Tell Me everything."
Dad Laughed, Kissed both our heads and He left. Dad popped the question as He popped the bottle of wine. He said He didn't understand Why But He wanted to Marry her, then said That's what love is. It's crazy, undefined, and It happens out of no where. That was one thing I agreed with My Dad on. If I really believed in true love, that was a whole different topic, That I was scared to talk about. Carmen was Happy, so Dad was. Dad Was Happy, So I was. Carmen left down stairs, after kissing My head. I turned on My lap top and talked to Jason. As I told Him everything, He smiled, and Shook His Head.
"why Are you shaking your head?" I smiled.
"I never saw you like this Before. One Day you Leave, without a word, then about a week later you called
