This isn't a full chapter because I just really want to introduce you to the story. I'm not going to have drugs in this one. I thought about it but For The Moment and Derailed were so drug and sex heavy that I didn't think this one needed it.
"When do you want to meet my family?" Caitlin asked kicking a rock as she stepped away from the seeping ocean water.
Joe was sitting in the sand, watching as the sun was starting to set down on the horizon. "When do you want me to want to meet your family?" He laughed, watching as she danced around on the wet sand. "You asked me this almost every day and we have been dating for three months now."
She looked up from the sand on her feet and to his waiting eyes. "I want it to be perfect."
"You want everything to be perfect though." He snorted, opening his right arm for her to sit with him. Caitlin ran over to him and kicked his chest, pushing him backwards into the sand. "You're a perfectionist Caitlin." He tried to breathe and sit up but she sat on his chest and pinned him down into the sand.
Grabbed his throat she let go of a mischievios grin and then lent closer to him. "I am not!"
"Yes you are." Joe wheezed from beneath her tight grip on his skin.
She let go of his throat and then jumped to the side of him, letting him sit up. "Well tell me Joseph," as he sat up she wriggled under his arm and leant on his shoulder. "What exactly is it that I always have to perfect? I bet you can't even name five things!"
Dropping his hold on her, he swung his arm around to the front of him and stuck out all five digits. "You always make your hair perfect, not a hair out of place and not a single colour mixed with the other shade or blonde." One finger went down, "last week you chipped your nail and the next day you blew me off so you could go get it fixed." Another finger went down.
"I'm a girl, girls can't have chipped nails!" Caitlin squealed and tried to pull his finger back up.
Joe snatched his hand away and push another one down, "school work. You are so organized that is looks like an office in your bedroom. You have charts and tables. Caitlin, your whole life is written on lined paper."
Caitlin rolled her eyes and crossed her arms with a pout. "Two left Joe, what else can you insult me about?"
He laughed, "You don't like your flaws." His forth finger went down. "No one is perfect Caitlin and not everything is perfect. There are things in life that are going to happen that you probably won't like."
"Like what Joe? Like what do I expected to be perfect that won't be? You are just such a genious so tell me." She was snapping a bit but Joe knew that she would always calm down after a minute or so.
He looked down at his last finger and thought for a moment. What he wanted to say was so clear but he was not sure about how to say it. "You expect me meeting your family to be perfect, you expect your wedding day to be perfect, you probably expect child birth to be perfect." He paused, "Sex."
"Sex?"
He stuck his last finger down and looked out to the ocean.
"How is that abnormal that a girl wants her first time to be perfect?" Caitlin could tell that he was going cold. He often went silent and distant when the topic of sex was brought up between them or with their friends. Everyone at their school was having sex at their age, everyone except Joe and Caitlin. All the other students and all their friends knew that Joe and Caitlin were the virgin couple all because Caitlin was a perfectionist and Joe had a purity ring. Although countless amounts of times Joe had told her he would give up everything he believed in for her, she was still too afraid.
"It isn't abnormal." Joe bit his lip and looked down at his hand. "It is just stupid Caitlin. It isn't going to be perfect!"
She grabbed his hand and pulled his around her shoulder. Leaning in closer to him she felt his heart beating, "it will be perfect though Joe. I'll be with you and I love you more than anything." But nothing is ever perfect.
Tell me what you think so far. If you don't like Caitlin it is alright because I don't either. Lol:)
