And the moment that I can feel that you feel that way to, is when I fall in
love with you he sang. Her
body went near limp; she dropped the bat and fell into his embrace. She realized that it had only been a
nightmare. She started to cry as he held her up. "I'm so sorry, baby. I love you" she said in a tear-weakened
voice. He held her to his chest, kissing her fore head, and letting his lips rest there as he spoke. "It's ok, It's
ok. I love you too." He said. She reached up and touched his face, and felt something warm. She looked up
and saw that it was blood from where she had hit him before. "Oh God!" she said, more pain welling in her
eyes. "No, Courtney I'm fine. I'm fine really!" he said, forcing a smile to reassure her, even though he
didn't want to smile. He was to worried about her. He picked her up and carried her to her room. Now that
they knew that Her mom wouldn't be home, and Ric again was staying at a friends, they had free reign. He
lay down beside her, holding her gently. "Hold me as tight as you can." She said, sounding as if she were in
desperation. He squeezed her small body as close to him as he could, his eyes closed tightly. She nuzzled
his chest, then turned her head slightly. "Just hold me, and don't stop. Don't ever stop." She said as if it
took every ounce of oxygen in her lungs to get those words out. He had no intentions of letting go of her.
She went to sleep long before he did, he watched her with the most love- stricken face imaginable.
He finally did drift away, to dream of her. As they finally woke up, they realized that they were still
squeezing the daylights out of each other, which made them smile. He started to sit up, so they could get
ready, but she wouldn't let go. "No not yet, I have to memorize this moment, this feeling." She whispered.
He held her to him again, taking everything in, then leaning down and kissing her on the nose, and then her
lips. "Now we gotta get ready babe." he said in a scarcely audible voice. "I know." She said, obviously
disappointed. He felt so bad that he had to stop holding her. "I'm sorry. I lied." He said looking to the
ground. "About what?" She asked trying to catch his stern gaze. "I told you I'd never stop holding you, and
I did stop." He said. She turned his face towards her with her palm. "You didn't lie. Because you took a
hold of my heart that first day I met you, and you haven't let go." She said smiling at the memory. He
smiled back at her then leaned into her hand, which was now supporting his head. She wanted so badly too
take his lips into hers, but she knew that if she did, she would never be able to stop. "Let's go find you some
clothes babe." She said finally. He nodded and stood up. He followed her into Ric's room, wear she pulled
out a black T-shirt and some jeans. He eyed them cautiously, then took them. He went into the bathroom to
try them on, and just as he'd suspected. "Babe, what's taking you so long? Let me in!" she said through the
door. " um, Court, I don't think these clothes are going to work." He said plainly. "Oh why not? Just let
me in." as hesitant as he was, he slowly opened the door, Courtney pausing, and then exploding with
laughter. The jeans were cutting off the circulation in his thighs, the ends of them were above his ankles,
and the shirt appeared to be sleeveless and it showed his tummy. "Okay, maybe you're right, let's just drive
by your house later." She said turning. She stopped then, looking over her shoulder. "You're never gonna
live this one down." She said, bursting into another fit of laughter. He shook his head laughing and grabbed
his clothes to change. He did, and then did his hair, ate, brushed his teeth and washed his face. Courtney
finished up getting ready, and as they were about to walk out the door, she stopped. "Jason, we can't drive
to school together, someone will see us." She said. "You're right." He said. He sounded calm, and okay.
But his eyes looked like a nail had been driven into his chest. She decided to act strong for him even though
the thought of them spending even a second apart killed her. "That's okay, we'll just meet up some time."
She said, hugging him tightly. She grinned mischievously. She leaned over and sucked on his ear lobe,
making him go red in the face. "God, don't tease me like that" he said quietly, sounding defeated. She
grabbed her keys. "I love you." She said, just before leaving. He went to his car after watching her pull out.
He couldn't believe the pain he felt.
