"Stop being a baby and let me clean your face." Kali said as her and John were riding home. They were almost to her house.

"Kali, I'm driving wait until we get back to your house." John said a little angrily.

"John why are you angry with me?" Kali said as she sat back.

John sighed, he didn't mean to come off like that. "I'm not mad at you. I just can't believe what Randy said to me and then he jumped me."

"What did he say to you?" Kali asked a little angry herself now. Randy was starting to act like an over protective parent.

"That he knew that I didn't care about you and that I was only using you to get back at him for something."

"Is it true?" Kali asked then regretted it.

"No!" John pulled into her driveway. He shut off the engine and turned to her. "Kali, I really like you and that's why I asked you out that night before I had any idea you were Randy's ex-girlfriend."

"I know and I'm sorry, it's just that he gave me a choice and I don't know what to do."

"What choice."

Kali looked toward the house. "To be with you or have him as a friend."

"Damn him!" John yelled hitting the steering wheel. "So are you going to break up with me now?"

"No," she looked at him. "John I really like you too. Randy is going to have to learn that he can't control me anymore and that if he wants to act like a two year old then he'll lose me."

John leaned over and gave her a kiss. "I'm starting to want to keep you all to myself." he whispered in her ear.

Kali smiled. "Let's go inside. You need to get cleaned up and I have to take a shower."

John grinned. "Can I get cleaned up in the shower?"

Kali laughed. "I guess."

"Alright." John hopped out of the car and rushed over to the other side of the car.


Kali listened to John singing in the shower. She smiled as she thought about what they just did in the shower. Never in her life did she feel so comfortable around a guy. John seemed to know when she was starting to get nervous he would make her laugh.

Kali knew that things between her and Randy were never going to be the same again and she could accept that. She was twenty four years old and if he wanted to act like that then she wanted nothing to do with him. Sure she was still in love with him, but every minute she spends with John she starts to fall in love with him, too.

"Kali!" John yelled from the bathroom.

Kali walked toward the door and noticed that John had cracked it open a little sticking his head out. "Yes?"

"You took the towels with you."

Kali smiled. "You mean this one?" She held it up inches from him.

John went to grab it, but Kali moved it further away. "Come on Kali, give it to me."

"Isn't that supposed to be my line?" She grinned.

"You have one nasty mind. Now if you don't mind, can I have the towel?"

"No." Kali started to walk away. Suddenly she felt two wet arms go around her waist. "Ah, you are getting me all wet." she said laughing at the comment.

John reached around taking the towel and running back to the bathroom. Kali turned in time to see shut the door. Kali laughed and walked toward the kitchen not remembering when she had so much fun with a guy.


Okay so this was a short chapter. Consider it just a filler. In the next chapter Kali will be back on the road with Randy. Can't wait to see what happens then.
