Do you remember the nights
We'd stay up just laughing
Smiling for hours
At anything
Remember the nights
We drove around crazy in love
"Hey, you busy?" That was the first thing Dom said when Kel picked up her phone. Rolling onto her back on her bed, she looked up at the ceiling as she answered.
"Busy? At one in the morning?" She asked sarcastically. "Always."
His laugh made her stomach hum tightly with butterflies. "Well, can the busy one manage to slip her boyfriend into her tight schedule?"
"Hmmm…." She pretended to think. "Yeah, I think for a moment or two."
"I'm outside then." Kel got up from her bed and opened the window, leaning out of the second story in time to see Dom's blue car, a BMW, pull up.
With a grin, she left a note for Avinar to find when he acted as her alarm clock and swung a leg out the window. She made her way down the flower trellis onto the grass and ran for the car.
Dom saw her coming and leaned across the seat, opening the passenger door for her to slide in. She caught his lips with her own before he managed to pull away. He started to get serious but she laughed and shoved him off her. He growled softly which only served to elicit more laughter out of her.
"Come on, tiger." She giggled. "I thought you had a plan."
"Nah, I thought we'd just drive around."
Kel threw her head back in new laughter. She loved this easy camaraderie with Dom. No expectations, no plans. Just spontaneity.
"Okay then. Let's drive!"
"I spy with my little eye something…green and striped." Dom said from his place beside her on the grass, lying on his side as he ran his fingers through her wavy mouse brown hair and supported his head on his hand.
"It's the sky." Kel guessed haphazardly. Dom gave her an odd look.
"Yes, because the sky is totally green." His voice dripped sarcasm.
"Fine, your boxers." That startled a laugh out of him.
"No, definitely not!"
"Your socks."
'Are you kidding me?"
Kel gazed around lazily for a hint, not willing to move away from her position in the crook of Dom's shoulder and chest. "No idea."
He burst out into laughter and picked up her shirt which was green and striped.
"Good job, Kel."
"Oh, shut up," she snapped good naturedly without any real spirit. They settled into a incredibly comfortable silence.
"Hey Kel?"
"Hmm?"
"Did I ever tell you how much I love this?"
"What?"
"The fact that we can just sit here and laugh for hours? The fact that I can say let's just drive and find something to do and you're totally cool with it?"
"Only a million times."
"Let's make it a million and one."
"Okay." She agreed and turned her head up for his kiss.
"When I get older, I'm going to be a rockstar!" Dom boasted in her ear. "I'll be huge and get all the hot girls and the cool crap from records and clothing companies. I'll be the shit!"
"Let me know when you mature past teenhood." Kel murmured, the sun warm against her face. "Cause I don't know if you remember, it might have just slipped out in the moment, but you can't sing for crap."
"Yes, I can."
"Nope, you can't hold a tune to save your life." Kel smiled behind her arm, eyes closed. She didn't have the energy to open them.
"Fine." Dom said grumpily. "Then I'll be a CEO of a computer company like Apple or like Tony Stark in Iron Man."
"Cause you're the genius in math and science."
"Killjoy." There was a moment's silence as Dom contemplated his options. "The next Matt Damon."
"Brilliant acting you have too."
"An author like J.R.R. Tolkien."
She snorted. "Your writing is so crappy."
"You're mean. Babe Ruth?"
"Can't hit a ball with a bat."
"NASCAR Champion?"
"You? Driving in a risk life and limb competition?"
"Julian Assange?"
"You privy to Pentagon secrets? Security will have to die first."
"Fine, what should I be?"
Kel groggily opened one eye and looked at him through half closed lids.
"The next Cristiano Ronaldo."
Dom laughed until he cried.
"Hey Dom?"
He looked up from the TV screen where he was watching the football games between Manchester United and Chelsea. For once, it wasn't he that initiated the conversation. Kel was sitting on the window sill in his room, his jacket hanging off her smaller frame, though not by much.
"What's up?"
"I don't mean to brag or anything but I've been thinking. Out of all the teen couples I know, we're the only ones I can think of that will be okay if anything happens."
"Like what?"
She shrugged, still watching the outside.
"I don't know. Like, if we suddenly didn't want to be a couple anymore, we'd probably be okay as friends because, well, we know our world pretty well."
Dom looked at her for a moment, outlined by the sun, and with a sigh, turned off the TV. At the lapse of sound, Kel turned to look at him and watched as he made his way over to her.
"Move over," he said and she leaned forward enough that he could sit behind her and then leaned back against him. He would never admit it, but feeling Kel against him was the most amazing sensation in the world. "You've given this a lot of thought, haven't you?"
She shrugged. "It's normal.
He pressed a chaste kiss against her temple. "Well, if our lights went out like that, which they're not, we'd be safe and sound."
When the lights go out
We'll be safe and sound
We'll take control of the world
Like it's all we have to hold on to
And we'll be a dream
let me know what you guys think.
