Chapter 7 (LPOV)

Hours later Forest and I were watching some old home videos in a fort we built after Uncle Shawn went to bed. "Your mom video taped everything when you were little." Forest said for the tenth time.

"If you say that one more time I'm going to throw popcorn at you." I warned grabbing a handfull of popcorn.

"Your mom video tap-" Forest began but stopped when popcorn hit him in the face. He smiled evilly at me causing my eyes to go wide. Soon we were having a popcorn fight that ended with all the popcorn all over the floor. "This reminds me of that time we started that food fight at your cousins golf tournament party so it wasn't so boring." Forest said as we started to wach the video of my first bath again, but now we had to fish out the popcorn from between the couch pillows we were laying on.

"Ok, that's enough of my newborn butt let's watch the day we firs met." I said switching out the tapes. As the video started I snuggled closer to my Buggs Bunny blanket.

flashback~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Located at the park (Lyla is 4 & Forest is 5)

"You can't find me. You can't find me." Lyla said teasing her father. Mr. Haring having followed her voice went toward the slide. Lyla saw him coming and ran up the slide but was knocked back down by a boy sliding down. They tumbled out the slide and fell in the sandbox. The boy got up then grabbed Lyla's hand and pulled her up. At the touch of their hands a shock went through them. Mr. Haring saw what happened and ran over.

"Are you okay?" He asked.

"Yeah, I'm ok." Lyla answered.

"Well, I'm going to go rest a bit have fun." He said walking over to where his wife was video taping the whole thing.

"Hi, I'm Forest." Lyla turned around at the sound of his voice.

"I'm Lyla. You wanna go play on the tire swing?" Forest nodded and ran after Lyla over to the swing. When he got there Lyla was already on it looking a him. "How are we gonna spin it?" She asked. Forest grabbed one of the three chains connected to the tire and began running around in circles. After a while he jumped on the spinning tire and sat down.

The two played all over the playground before finally sitting down to rest. After a few minutes Lyla got bored and turned toward Forest. "You know how to play slide baby?" She asked. Forest just looked at her with a confused expression on his face. "Slide baby, the hand game? What about apple-on-a-stick or shame or concentration?" Forest shook his head. "Do you know any hand games?"

"I know pat-a-cake."

"You my friend, have a lot to learn." Lyla sighed.

Lyla spent the next two hours teaching Forest all the hand games she knew. When Forest's parents came to take him home he knew them almost as well as Lyla knew them. After the two said good-bye Forest and his parents went to thier car and Lyla went to the monkey bars. Before they drove away Forest hopped out of the car and ran all the way to Lyla.

"Hey, before I go I want you to have this." Forest said holding up a blue Buggs Bunny blanket. Lyla took it and smiled at Forest.

"Thanks. Why is there a heart-shaped fire in the middle?" She asked.

"That's the Redclaps crest, my family's crest." Forest answered proudly.

"That's so cool."

"I gave it to you because I always know it is and as long as you have it I'll know where you are too."

"Ok, see ya soon." Lyla said quickly kissing Forest on the cheek.

"See ya." Forest ran back over to the car and got in. The two waved at eachother until they knew the other couldn't see them anymore.

"You know what, I never found what that kiss was for." Forest said turning off the tv hen helping me clean up.

"I don't know, I guess I just felt like it. I mean you were being real sweet, it was kind of a thank you kiss." I answered. We finished cleaning in silence then went upstairs. "Forest." I said as he went toward the guest room. He stopped and turned around.

"Yeah?"

"Night." I said changing my mind.

"Night." He said turning around again.

"Forest." I said stopping him again.

"Yeah?" He said once he was turned around again. I quickly walked up to him before I could change my mind again. He started to say something, but I kissed before he could. I stepped back and turned around shocked at what I did. "What was that for?"

"Night." I said before running into my room and closing the door panicked.

Oh my God! Why did I just kiss him? We've been best friends since we were four and five, if I had wanted to kiss him (and I haven't, well except when we met but that doesn't count) I would have already. I mean I like only as a friend. He's fun to be around, he comes up the silliest stuff to make boring things fun (like that one time Dad took us to a tennis match), it's real easy to talk to him about things, I love writing songs with him, and everytime he's gone I can't wait until I see him again. Everytime we aren't together I feel like something's missing. Oh crap! Maybe I do like more than a friend. I need to tell him, but what if he doesn't feel the same way about me?

I laid down and thought about possible ways to tell him. After a few minutes I finally fell asleep.

(FPOV)

I woke up the next morning still thinking about that kiss. I got up took a shower got dressed then went downstairs for breakfast. When I went in the kichen Mr. Haring was cooking pancakes and Lyla was writing.

"Morning." I said sitting next to Lyla at the bar.

"Morning." Mr. Haring said.

"What ya writing there Lyla?"

"The song line-up for next month's concert." She answered handing me the paper. I'm not going to mention the kiss unless she does.

"New song? I didn't know you were working on a new song." I stated puting down the line-up.

"Well, I'm not really, I just hope I can have a new song by then. Are you gonna go?"

"Wouldn't miss it for the world." I said grabbing my pancakes and a fork.

*********************************************************************************************
the next month (LPOV)

I hope this plan works. If it doesn't... I don't know. I finished tuning Tim's bass then ran back on stage to introduce the next song.

"Ok, I have a big surprise for you guys tonight. I just recorded a new song and you get to hear it. It's called 'Heaven' and there's a story that goes with it. You see, I've known this guy my entire life and we're the best of friends. Just recently I realized I don't like him as a friend anymore." I stopped as the crowd 'awed'. " No, it's not a sad thing it's a real happy thing. Now you're most likely completely confused 'how is that a happy thing'? I realized I don't like him as a friend but more than a friend. Now you get?" The crowd cheered and somewhere I heard a 'you go girl' and a 'good luck'. Alright get ready for 'Heaven'!" The band started then I began to sing.

Oh, thinking about all our younger years
There was only you and me
We were young and wild and free
Now, nothing can take you away from me
We've been down that road before
But that's over now
You keep coming back for more

Baby you're all that I want
When you're lying here in my arms
I'm finding it hard to believe
We're in heaven

And love is all that I need
And I found it there in your heart
It isn't too hard to see
We're in heaven

Oh, once in your life you find someone
Who will turn your world around
Pick you up when you're feeling down
Now, nothing can change what you mean to me
There's a lot that I could say
But just hold me now
Cause our love will light the way

Baby you're all that I want
When you're lying here in my arms
I'm finding it hard to believe
We're in heaven

And love is all that I need
And I found it there in your heart
It isn't too hard to see
We're in heaven

I've been waiting for so long
Something to arrive
For love to come along
Now, our dreams are coming true
Through the good times and the bad
I'll be standing there by you

Baby you're all that I want
When you're lying here in my arms
I'm finding it hard to believe
We're in heaven

And love is all that I need
And I found it there in your heart
It isn't too hard to see
We're in heaven

Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
We're in heaven

The music stopped and I thanked everyone for coming then I went backstage. I went to my dressing room and began smelling my wild honeysuckle airfreshner (honeysuckle calms my nerves). After a few minutes Forest knocked on the door.

"Lyla, we need to talk." He said coming in closing the door behind him.

"I know." I sighed.

A/N: Get mad. 'Ugh! I can't believe you're going to leave us hanging like that!' Well, I doing this for a reason.
1) I haven't thought farther than that
2) I don't have time I need to work on my other story too ya know
3) I hope this gets me more reviews
4) I have many parts of the story writen down that I didn't put in the story but I would like them to be so I need to think on how to add them
5) I sad because my other story seems to be liked more than this one
6) I need at least 25 reviews before the next chapter goes up
