I walked to the park and sat down on a swing. I sat there staring at my black converse, kicking the dirt. I watched the sun rise, and felt it warm my face. The park had been abandoned ever since the incident. It was quiet, and i liked it that way. I wondered if i would ever see Emma again? She was the first girl i had ever been able to talk to and actually feel comfortable with. As i thought i lost track of time, as the sun slowly went down. I lay down next to the monkeybars and fell asleep. I was awoken soon later.
" hey Johnny." she said as she shook me slowly.
I looked up at her instantly and sat up. She had her hair pulled back neatly, and her eyes were glistening in the moonlight.
"Emma?" i said hesitantly.
" Yea Johnny it's me."
she sat down next to me on the pavement underneath the monkeybars. Then it was just silent. We both sat there looking at the stars. What should i do? i thought to myself. Should i say something? then Emma spoke up.
" Hey, Johhny?" she said as she bundled up in her sweater.
" Yea Emma?" I said as I took off my jean jacket and wrapped it around her.
She smiled.
" Do you like me?"
I had no idea of what to say, do I tell her i like her as a friend, or do i tell the truth and tell her i love her.
" Johnny" she said as she looked at me, and let her hair down.
" Emma, i think i love you." i said quickly as i looked into her brown eyes.
" Johnny, i, i ." she said as she came closer.
" I think i love you too." she said as she leaned in and kissed me.
Then we both got up and walked toward the Curtis' house.
I could tell that this night would just get better, or soI thought.
