As I round the corner of a building I hear, "Hey! Ember, wait up!" I stopped and automatically started laughing. Of course, it was Kayden. "What do you want, Kayden?" I said jokingly. "I was just wondering how you were doing. You know with the choosing ceremony being in a few days and all." I could't help but to smile at that. "I'm doing fine thanks for asking." He did that perfect little half smile of his. "Good." "So what about you? How are you doing?" I returned the question. "Great." I could see the nervousness in his eyes. I stopped. "No, Kayden. How are you really doing?" He stopped right beside me. "Really, Ember. I'm fine." I know he's not but the tone of his voice told me not to push it. "Ok." We live right next door to each other so we decided to walk home together. We kept joking around and laughing at each other. That's one thing I like about Kayden, he's full of jokes and games but can be serious when he wants to be. "So are you ready for the aptitude test tomorrow?" "Well considering I don't know what it's like i'm not so sure if I am or not. Are you?" I turned my head to look at him and when I do I trip on a stick laying on the sidewalk and I fall on my face. "Ember! Are you ok?" He got down on his knee's and helped me sit up. we both looked at each other and started laughing. I was so embarrassed my fAs I round the corner of a building I hear, "Hey!

He said while he was laughing. I playfully punched his arm. He helped me up and we started walking again. When we got home he stopped me in front of my house. "Ember, just in case I didn't see you tomorrow I just wanted to wish you luck and tell you you would do great tomorrow." He gave me a kiss on the cheek then turned around and walked next door to his house, I couldn't help but smile. I stood there and watched him until he got inside his house. I redundantly reached up and touched my face where his lips touched my face. I walked inside my house with a huge silly smile on my face that I couldn't take off. My mom can't see me. She would kill me. I started to sneak upstairs to my room my mom saw me. "Ember, how was school?" I tried to wipe the smile off my face but I couldn't so I stayed put. "Um... good, mom." I started to walk up the stairs when my mom said, "Ember! Don't be rude! Be abnegation, turn around and don't avoid people. Always think of others first." "Yes mam." I turned around and walked toward my mom. "How was your day, mom?" she smiled but it didn't reach her eyes. "Great. Thanks for asking." "Good." I said as I turned and walked upstairs. The feeling of his lips against my cheek was singed into my mind.
