I got dressed and ready to go out to eat. The phone rang again. I slowly walked to the phone, still in pain. I answered the phone on the third ring.

"Hello?" I said with a huge sigh.

"Hey, Daniel. We are in some traffic. So, just relax for now." My mom told me. WTF! I busted my butt a thousand times, I'm starving, and they want me to starve some more! I swallowed my anger.

"Whatever." I said to her.

"I'm sorry Daniel. I can't control this. You know that if I could I would." She said sadly.

"I know mom. Just….just get here as fast as you can okay?" I tried to make her feel better. I heard her sigh.

"Okay. Just don't be upset, Dan." She hung up the phone. I stayed on until I heard the dial tone. I sighed and then hung up the phone. I can't live like this! Looking on the bright side, I won't have to see my mom do yoga anymore. I sat on the steps and leaned on the wall. The doorbell ranged. As dumb as this seemed, I said it anyway.

"Come in." Why would I say that? I wasn't prepared to fight a robber or serial killer. I was in pain and extremely lazy at the moment. I swallowed hard as the door opened. It revealed a girl's shoe and foot. The shoe was a baby blue high heal. It was toe-out shoes, and the ties were painted baby blue as well. I looked up to see Runo's face.

"Runo?" I asked.

"Hi, Dan. I'm going with you guys to breakfast." She told me.

"Okay. Just sit over here." I patted the step I sat on.

"Nah. I think I'm gonna see what you got in the kitchen." She told me.

"There's nothing in there." I told her. She rolled her eyes and stepped in the house. She had on a baby blue dress that came to her knees and a white cover up on it. It all matched her hair so well. She seemed to shine before me. I was really impressed. She walked towards the kitchen. I just watched her as she went. Then it hit me!

"Runo! Don't go…." I heard a big bump and Runo screaming. I ran towards the opening and saw that she was sliding right towards me. I screamed with Runo. She hit my legs and I fell on her. We slid all the way towards the living. When we got to the carpet, we were jerked up and flipped to where Runo was now on top of me. It hurt so much that I didn't even notice how close we were. I couldn't move. I was surely bruised up now!

"Uh…Dan? Are you okay?" Runo asked me.

"No! My body is aching!" I said to her. She tried to get up but she fell back on me. Then, I blushed in realizing what's going on in this picture.

"Runo?" I called to her.

"What?" She said as she laid her head on my chest.

"Did you notice that you are…um…on top of me?" I pointed out to her. She tried to push herself up again.

"I'm sorry. I'll try to…" She said straining to get off of me. She was two inches away. She tried to put her feet in it, but they pushed her up and she fell back on me, putting her face closer to mine. She blushed. I couldn't look at her. I turned my head. I slid to the side, and Runo moved the opposite way. We were now both on the floor. I looked over to her.

"You're heavy." I told her. She laughed and then rolled to her side. She grabbed my face and turned my head to where I was looking at her. It was not until then that I noticed how close we were. We moved closer and closer into each other. Runo moved her hand from my face and then put both of her hands on the floor. She pushed herself up.

"Don't strain yourself." I told her.

"I have to get up." She told me. She got to her feet and then fell on the couch.

"Now you get up, Dan." She told me. This wasn't the time. Especially right when we were about to kiss! I put my hands on the floor and easily pushed myself up in one try. Runo gasped.

"How come you didn't try getting u before?" She asked.

"Because I was trying to enjoy a moment." I said as I sat next to her.

"Dan…do you…do you want to…I don't know…kiss?" She asked me. She started to blush. I wanted to play with her head.

"No." I told her. I could tell that I hurt her, because she tightened her fist near her heart and then looked away. As tears started to form in her eyes, I grabbed her face and kissed her. After 2 seconds into the kiss, she put her arms around my neck and kissed me back. I was in heaven! I pulled away and looked into her eyes. She waited for me to say something, but I didn't.

"Dan!" She yelled at me.

"What?" I said.

"You can't do that! You have to do something." She informed me. I laughed and rubbed my head.

"Sorry. I just thought that maybe…" I was cut off by her kiss. I could tell that she didn't want to stop, because every time I'd move back she'd move forward. So I moved into her. Then she pulled away from me.

"Runo!" I said to her. She laughed.

"We can't kiss forever, Dan." She told me.

"Then we could have ended it when I did." I told her. She rolled her eyes at me.

"Whatever, Dan." She said. The door opened, and my mom stepped in.

"Oh, great. You're here!" She said to Runo.
