~*Chapter 10*~
Music was running through Carey's head as he walked to the park. In just a few minutes, two lives would change forever.
I can feel the fire
The heat is on
The nearer he got to Fi's house, the slower he walked. I can't go through with this, he thought to himself.
Flames are burning higher
The heat is on
Carey went up the walk and stopped just short of the door. He was hesitate to knock. Maybe I should just leave. That'll make this easy. Maybe she'll think I didn't come because it's over…yeah, that's it. I'll just…
His thoughts were interrupted when the door burst open. Fi jumped out and hugged him. After the sock of this went, he hugged her back. Fi let him go and pulled back, still holding him in her arms. "Hi to you, too," he joked with her.
"Hi!" She started to pull him down the walk. "Come on! I think Jack'll be coming if we don't hurry up!"
She dragged Carey up the sidewalk for a few minutes before he gave up resisting and went along with her. What's she thinking about right now? He asked himself. Should I ask her? Or is that too personal? He paused for a moment before asking Fi, "What are you thinking about right now?"
"Truthfully?" She looked into his soul.
He looked back and answered, "Yes, truthfully." He saw wonder in her eyes. He didn't have to actually ask that question. He knew she was thinking about what he needed to tell her.
"What you needed to tell me… Is there something wrong? Am I a bad girlfriend or something?" Her questions continued as they walked though the park entrance. Fi, you're a great girlfriend…"
"But…" she started for him.
"But," he paused; I can do this! He kept repeating this over and over, hoping the more he said it, the closer to the truth it would be, "Fi, I need to tell you something really important" He leaned in and kissed her delicately. He made her feel like a fragile flower in the process of blooming. "Fi…"
"Yes, Carey?"
"I…" just say it Bell! "I… I l… I love you, Fi." Done! I did it! I finally told Fi my feelings!
Fi was in shock and Carey found the shock on her face amusing. He started to laugh at her. "What's so funny?" She was peeved.
"You are," he told her, "When I said I loved you, you're face went blank. I didn't expect you to do that." He smiled into her eyes.
"Carey?" Fi whispered, leaning into him.
"Yes?" He kissed her again.
"I love you, too," she smiled at his expression this time.
"I didn't expect for you to say it back…" He didn't know what to say to her. Luckily, Fi took care of it.
"Come here," she commanded him, and pulled him into a kiss.
