Ruthie Part 3
"Yes father, we do.",says Ruthie calmly as Eric looks surprised that she'd be so calm about what she did in the girl's bathroom.
"Do you know that it's a sin to kiss the same sex, Ruthie? You were born a Christian and we don't act like that in public. I forbid you from seeing that girl. She's nothing but trouble. We, your mother and I, have tried to raise you the best that we can but I see that it's not enough. You're the second youngest in this family and we never expected this from anyone especially you, Ruthie Camden.",says Eric.
"The only thing that she did was kiss me and she told me that she's loved me since she first saw me. Was it that so bad? You kiss mother all the time. Why is that any different, father?",says Ruthie as she feels something in her pocket.
Then she remembers that Ashely slipped it in her pocket when she hugged her.
"Do you really like this girl Ashely, Ruthie?",asks Eric now getting out of ideas.
"Yes father, I do and there's nothing that you can do to break up apart. She's my girlfriend and we're a couple. I don't really care what anybody thinks about us.",says Ruthie determined now more then ever.
At first she was scared of what that feeling was when Ashely kissed her but now she realises, she's in love with her.
"Don't bring her to our church on Sundays, Ruthie. Our followers won't know what to think if they ever found out about this.",says Eric annoyed once he thinks about it but he sees that she likes Ashely alot.
"What are you saying, father?",asks Ruthie curiously hoping that it was a good thing.
"I'm saying that you can go out with Ashely, Ruthie. I'll explain it with your principal and teachers if that's who you really want to go out with.",says Eric as Ruthie gets up and runs to hug her father.
"Oh thank you, father! I'm so happy.",says Ruthie happily as she goes out of her father's study room and straight up to her room.
She opens up the piece of paper and realises that it's Ashely's phone number as well as her e-mail address.
Ruthie smiles brightly and then puts it carefully in her jewelry box.
She closes the lid and waits until after dinner to call her girlfriend.
After dinner, Ruthie quickly dials Ashely's number and waits until somebody picks up the phone.
Finally someone does as Ruthie asks if Ashely's there and it's she's the one that picked up the phone.
"Ashely, I have something to tell you.",says Ruthie as Ashely shutters slightly thinking that it was a big mistake to give out her phone number and her e-mail address to a girl that she just fell in love with.
"What is it, Ruthie?",asks Ashely causiously.
"I love you too. My father said that we can be a couple.Isn't that great, Ash?",says Ruthie happily.
"Yeah that's great, Ruthie but who's Ash?",says Ashely happily.
"That's your nickname, silly. So when do you want to go out?",says Ruthie.
"How about tomorrow night at 8PM at the Glen Oak Pizza House? My brother can take us their and pick us up. He's really cool about me being gay.",says Ashely as Ruthie agrees happily.
