"So what're you going to be up to tomorrow?"
"I dunno." I shrugged, "Probably stop by the shop, make sure things are going all right there. You should stop by."
Amber smiled at me. "Maybe."
We we're sitting in the car in front of her place. It was getting late and I knew she had to be up early.
"Hey." I said, looking at her.
"Yeah?" She asked, looking confused.
"Thanks." I said quietly.
She looked over at me and smiled a little. "For what?"
"Tonight -- everything... I don't know. Just... thanks."
I never was the one for words. I didn't expect to blurt that out but looking at her, I couldn't help but say it.
"Any time." Amber said softly. She slid over and leaned against me. I wrapped my arms around her waist and kissed the top of her head.
"This is what I love right here." Amber sighed.
I snorted, "Chillin' in the car?"
She laughed. "With you? Yeah. But that's not what I meant exactly; it's kinda calm, you know? I don't know why, but even if we aren't even talking, I'm still so comfortable around you."
"Yeah." I said quietly. "I know exactly what you mean."
"Okay nerd boy." She sat up. "I gotta go. I gotta get some kind of rest before I fall over or something."
"Ah." I snorted. "Who needs rest?"
"I do." She smiled. "I'll talk to you later, then?"
I nodded, "Of course."
"'Kay." She leaned in to kiss me.
"Hey." I pulled back. "Now I don't know what kind of guy you think I am but I don't put out on the first date."
Amber snorted and smacked my arm lightly. "You're such a tease."
"Nah." I smirked. "I'm just a good guy..."
"Yeah, whatever." She laughed. "Fine, If it's like that..."
I grabbed her arm before she got out of the car and pulled her towards me.
"Okay." I said, my lips brushing hers. "I lied."
She smiled and kissed me softly.
"Let me walk you to the door." I suggested.
"Leon." Amber rolled her eyes. "You are a good guy but man; you aren't that good of a guy. You really don't need to anyway..."
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah." She smiled. "Goodnight."
I lifted her palm to my lips and kissed it softly. "Night."
