Forever and Always #4

I fell asleep in S's bed that night, and didn't wake up till the afternoon. I woke to the lingering smell of cigarette smoke.

"How are you feeling?" S asked.

I moaned, "I'll survive. Umm.. Brad didn't like.."

"He doesn't know, don't worry. He slept at a friends. Want one?"

Without answering I grabbed a cigarette and S past me his zippo. In one slick movement I flicked it open and lit up.

S laughed. "Pretty impressive, do you know any tricks?"

"Not really, just this one."

I lit it up again and put my finger over the flame, putting the flame out, and then I flicked my hand over the flame and it lit up again, an optical illusion that makes it look like I took the flame from the lighter and threw it back on the wic.

"Very nice, how'd you learn that?"

"Just fooling around with a zippo one day."

"Alright, I think it's time to get up."

"But I don't wonna."

"Maybe Brad was right, maybe you are a little girl." He teased.

I shrugged, "That makes you the pedo, not me Sander."

"What did you just call me?"

I just smirked up at him and he rolled his eyes.

"Get up."

"Fiine!" I moaned.

He pressed his cigarette against the thigh of his tattered jeans and threw the butt in the bin.

He chucked my clothes over to me and smiled before leaving the room. I was completley in love with him, I'd never met anyone like him.

I finished off my cigarette and got dressed. "S!" I called out.

"What is it?" He walked out of the kitchin and smiled.

"I've got to go home, my parents are going to kill me."

"Do you want me to give you a ride?"

"Hell no! They'll kill me if they see you." I laughed.

"Ok, I'll talk to you later." We kissed in the doorway for a moment, and then I ran down the road. My house was only two streets away. On the way there I pieced together most of what happened the night before. I smiled, remembering kissing him, sex with him, and waking up with him. Butterflys fluttered in my stomach, and I wondered if he felt it to.

When I got inside my parents were screaming about a 20 year old, but how could they know? They couldn't, could they?! My heart raced and I slammed the door so they knew I was there.

"A 20 year old?!" My mum screamed, I burst out in tears and bolted out the door and up the road as fast as I could.

As soon as I got to S's place I was in tears, I burst in the door without knocking and found him replacing the pillow cases on the lounge.

"Danni?! What's going on.. Settle down, you're going to start hyperventelating!"

"They know." I felt like I was about to explode into tiny pieces, my life was over.

"What?! You don't mean about us?! How?!"

"I just walked in, and mum started screaming at me."

Brad walked in the door smiling proudly, as soon as he saw me in tears he ran. S chaised after him.

I heard them yelling so I ran out to see what was going on, and just as I burst out the door S landed a huge punch on Brad's cheek. He held his hand out and spat something covered in blood into his hand, it looked like teeth.
