as we sped through the busy streets

i noticed joe had my ipod and was scrolling through it.

i got kind of nervous because i had all of the old delights from when i was younger.

the spice girls,nsync,hanson.

but he never said a word.

finally he picked 'can i get get get' by juniorsenior

and as the chorus kicked in he started singing it right into my ear.

'can i get get get,to know,know,know,know you better better baby?'

my heart sank and it was begining to get harder and harder to keep my attention on the road.

just then,as if to save us from phone rang.

"hello?...oh hi mom"

"yeah,i can get a ride to the garage"

he said it almost as if he was asking me to bring him there,i nodded.

"alright,see you "

as he hung up we rounded the corner to the garage,joe started .

"why are you laughing?"

"you looked like you were about to have a heart attack when i was singing to you,the look on your...."

and then the laughing fit came on again.

"yeah yeah,very funny" i said sarcastically.

he gave me a hug and i didn't want to ever let go.

"see you at school tomorrow" he said,and as i was about to open my mouth to speak he winked at me.

and my jaw dropped,he smiled,and shut the car door.

this kid really had me falling.
