So I got up and brushed off my pants and fixed my shirt.
âI really want to stay here with you butâŠ.â
âBut what? Whatâs the matter Opie?â
âI donât know, I just, I donât know what to do about this.â
He walked up to me and grabbed my hands, âIts ok Opal, nothing bad is gonna happen. Donât worry about it.â
âThatâs not what itâs the matter, itâs just I really really like you and all but, I donât want to ruin what I could have back at home. Do you know what I mean?â
âDo you have a boyfriend?â
âNo, but I like this guy and Iâm pretty sure he likes me to. I just don't want your's and my friendship-crush-thing to go any further, liking each other is ok butâŠâ
âI understand, I do, but once you leave here your emotions and everything stay. They wonât go back with you trust me. We will forget this weekend sooner then you know it.â
I had a feeling he was just saying that because he didnât want to be alone tonight. But I was not willing to go that far with him at all.
âAnd Iâm not saying this because I want to sleep with you or anything, really, itâs just I really like you and the next time we see each other you will probably have a boyfriend.â He said with a look on his face like his puppy just died.
âYeah, rightâ I said very unconfidently.
I gave him a hug but he pulled my hair away from my neck and kissed it and I just melted and I passed out. Not because of the kiss but because I was tired and the beer had kicked in.
A Sad Goodbye
The next morning I woke up pretty early, about 6:30am, the sun was just rising and my parents were already up and packing up to leave. I didnât want to leave yet, but I really wanted to get back home and forget about this weekend. I couldnât exactly tell my mom how I felt and what was going on but she could tell there was something wrong. I packed up my things and put them in the car. Austin wasnât around anywhere so I was beginning to wonder what happened to him last night because I donât remember how I got back to the tent. I walked around town one last time and when I got back it was about 8am. Austin was sitting on the swing set next to where our tent was. He looked kind of upset.
âWhats wrong Austin?â
âI donât know its just I was hopping this weekend would have been more but I still had funâ
âWhat do you mean?â
âYou passed out last night and I wanted to kiss you and stuff but I knew it would be wrong to take advantage of you while you were asleep. So I didnât. I brought you back here and helped you into the tent and you said âgoodnight Maxâ. Whos max?"
âReally? I said that? Thanks for not doing anything to me though that would have been a little weird.â
âYeah you didâŠâŠwho is Max?â
âThis guy I met online that I'm gonna meet when we get back home. I'm hoping that if all goes well and my parents like him, we will date.â
âOh, is that is that the guy you were talking about last night?â
âYes. I'm really sorry, I wish that I could have came back every year so we could see each other change slower, you have changed so much and I just donât want to be another one of the many girls you have had. I know we arenât going to date but I donât want to go any further physically with you, ok?â
âDo you think I wanted to sleep with you or something? You're not like the other girls I know. I would never do that to you without you suggesting it. You're special, you care about your body and stuff.â
âYeah, I knowâŠâ
âWhat do you mean you know? How did you know I felt that way?â
â I heard you and Liz talking the other day at the RV parkâŠâ
âOhâŠ. Really? DarnâŠ..did you hear everything?â
âYeahâ
âSo you understand what's going on then right?â
âYeah, but its ok, I'm kinda happy I heard you talk that way. I was able to stand up to Liz when she came and told me that you are gonna dump your girlfriend for her.â
âWhat?!? I would never do thatâŠ.. Gross. I mean sheâs cute and all but I couldnât picture myself dating her.â
âYeah.â
Our conversation pretty much ended there. We walked into town to find my parents and told them that we were going to walk to the ravine and back really quick. Once we got away from town, no one saw us leave, thank God we finally get to be alone. Our hands kept bumping together and finally he grabbed my hand. I just went with it, what harm could a little hand hold do? We got to the ravine and sat on a big rock on the edge and just sat there. He didnât say a word to me, but neither did I. We just sat there and enjoyed the warmth of the morning sun on our skin and listened to the birds chirp. We started back and he never let go of my hand until we got back in site of the people. We got back to his house and he told me he had to go to his uncle's house for a family BBQ and he won't be here when I leave. So we said a quick goodbye and a some what long hug and he started walking. His uncle's house was just over by Lizâs house so I was thinking that maybe he was lying to me but I watched him walk past her house to his where there was a bunch of cars parked. My parents found me and we said goodbye to Carrie and her husband Hank, got in the car and my dad asked me,
"Whereâs Austin?â
âHe's at his uncle'sâ
âDo you want us to drive you over there to say goodbye?â
âSureâ
"Ok sweetieâ
So we drove over and Austin came running to the car so I rolled down the window. My mom whispered to me âget out and give him a hug opalâ, so I did as she said and got out. The hug was by far better then the one he gave me 10 minutes ago. It seemed like he didnât want to let go and I didnât really want to either but then I remembered Max. I need to let go, let go Opal, let him go, youâll see him again soon.
So we let go and he gave me a little kiss on the cheek so my parents wouldnât see and I got back in the car and we drove away. I looked behind us to see him wave and then run back inside. I donât know why, but I started crying. I wish that Max and I lived here but I guess that wouldnât be a good idea since Austin is here too and I'm pretty sure they would not get alone very well, but you never know.
Eight long, tired hours later we were back home. I was so happy I flopped on my bed and pulled my phone out and texted Max.
Me: hey max!! I missed you so much I wish I could have txted you so much more. I thought a lot about you this weekend and ive have decided to invite you to my birthday party so we can meet. Do u want to come?
He didnt reply very fastâŠâŠ.about 10 min went by and finallyâŠâŠbuzz.

Morning came and we texted all day, everyday for the next 2 weeks but on August 10th Austin texted meâŠ.. I really didnât need this right now and I didnât want to talk about what happened but I guess it would be better if we did.
Austin: hey im sorry about this weekend and what all happened. Idk y I acted like that I shouldnât have. Im sorry but I think I relize I donât like u like I thought I did. ur
