Lightning and Sally walked into Flo's, and let go of each others' hands. Sally went and sat down at a table with the girls, and Lightning sat with the guys.

Lightning flipped his chair around backwards, and sat down. He propped his head up with his hand, and smiled dreamily over at Sally. He barely even noticed Mater coming up, and sitting next to him.

"Sooooo…. How wuz it?" Mater asked.

"How was what?" Lightning replied, still gazing at Sally.

"Dang, buddy. You're getting' as fergetful as me!" Mater exclaimed. "I was talkin' bout that there, tonsil hockey you an' Miss Sally was playin' outside!" He added, lowering his voice.

"Mater, don't talk like that." Sheriff warned him.

"Well, how else wuz I supposed ta say it?" Mater asked, shrugging his shoulders. "Anyways, how was it?" He repeated.

Lightning looked at Sally, then glanced up at Mater's anxious face. "Let me put it this way, I've never… EVER… been kissed that way before."

"Not even by your momma?" Mater asked.

Lightning sorta looked at his feet at that comment. He knew that Mater was trying to be funny, but he didn't have the heart to tell him that he didn't have a mother. Well, at least, he didn't KNOW her. He just looked up and smiled.

"Not even by my momma." He said, forcing a small laugh. "Hey, I'll be right back."

Lightning made his way outside, and happily did a somersault. Nothing…NOTHING… could bring him down at this moment, not even that last thing that Mater had just said.


"Back already?" Lizzy asked.

Sally knew that it was silly, but she felt as if the older lady knew what she had just done. And she hadn't even told anyone yet!

"Yes, I just went to give Lightning some aspirin." She replied, smiling.

"Mmhm. Lay off it. I know what you two were doing." Lizzy said, smirking a little.

"You do?" Sally said, surprised.

"Yep."

"How did you find out?" Sally asked.

"Well, seeing as how Lightning keeps doin' cartwheels outside, I suppose you did something to make him really happy."

Sally turned, just in time to see Lightning jumping backwards into the air, attempting a back-hand-spring, and landing perfectly on his feet.

Sally laughed, and got up to get a better view.

This time, Lightning did some sort of stunt, to where he was balancing on one hand, then he gently came back down to the ground.

Sally looked over and saw that everyone else was watching him, too. She laughed, and turned back to the window.

"Where'd he learn how to do that?" She thought out loud.

"Didn't you know? He used ta skate board a lot when he was young. He must be doin' all his tricks without a skate board." Mater said.

"Huh, I didn't know that." Sally said thoughtfully. I don't know a lot about him. She added to herself.

Sally turned, and walked to the kitchen.

"Hey, Flo." She greeted the older woman.

"Hey honey." She replied. She noticed that Sally was being a little quiet. "So, you gonna tell me what happened?"

"Oh, Flo. You know a girl doesn't kiss, and tell." Sally said slyly.

"You two lovebirds finally kissed?" Flo asked, surprised.

"Yea… You should see Lightning right now. He's so happy, he's doing flips."

This made Flo laugh. "So, how was it?" she asked.

Sally sighed dreamily. "Oh, Flo. He's just so… perfect. I've never felt this way about a guy before."

After that last statement, Sally fell silent. Flo looked up from her work, and saw that she looked sort of sad.

"What's the matter, sweetheart?"

Sally looked up at Flo. "Flo, how much do you know about Lightning?"

This question sort of struck Flo by surprise. "Um, I don't know. I just pretty much know that he's a racecar driver."

"I just realized, I hardly know anything about him!" Sally exclaimed.

"Yes, you do." Flo reassured her.

"What do I know about him, besides the fact that he's a racecar driver." Sally said, crossing her arms.

"You know that he loves you." Flo said, smiling. "Why else would he kiss you?"

"I don't know. I guess you're right. I do know a little about him." Sally said.

"I want you to name at least five things that you know about him." Flo said, coming over to her, and putting her arm around her.

Sally thought for a moment. "Well, he has the most beautiful, blue eyes that I have ever seen."

"Ok. That's one." Flo said, going back to her work.

"He used to ride a skateboard, and he's really shy." Sally stated, thinking hard.

This made Flo look up. "He is?"

"Uh, yea. You wouldn't guess it, but he really is. I had to make the first move before he would kiss me." Sally said, laughing a little.

"Huh, that's interesting." Flo said to herself. "Ok, you still have two to go." She added.

"Hmmm, ok, um. Well, he has brownish-blonde hair, annnnnnd…" Sally said, trying to think of something else.

"I got it! He's an awesome kisser!" Sally said, smiling giddily. (ugh, I hate that word! Lol)
