Invitation

"I hope you don't mind the apparent mess, I never have time to clean it up."

No answer.

"Zane? Where are yo-"

"Here, I'm in here." The answer came from deep within hallways of the house. "What are you doing?"

"Looking at your pictures. Are you sure that your mother is your biological mother? You don't look anything alike." "Yeah, people tend to say that but I'm pretty sure she's my biological mother, I haven't known anyone else to be. Come on, we can have something to eat. Zane, I feel like I know you already, I've just met you today but, the more the merrier I believe the saying goes." Walking in the kitchen, I pulled out some eggs and stuck some toast in the toaster. "Zane, are you fine with eggs and toast, I don't really have anything else." I called into the hallway.

He's still standing in the same spot. WHOA

"Don't scare me like that! " "Heh, like what, who knew you got spooked so easily. So…what do you want to do now?" he backed me slowly up against the wall and leaned towards me. "The eggs!" "what? The eggs? That's all you can think of is eggs?" "no, I left the eggs on the burner, I hope they're not burnt."

They were really burnt, but we just decided to eat them, holes and all.

"So, homework time, we can do it-I mean not it but our homework…on the couch. Yeah, over there." There are two couches, I was secretly hoping that he would sit next to me, but a girl can only hope so much. Then, he sat next to me. I pretended not to notice and pulled my books out.

He gently set my books down. "Let's talk about something else. For example, how did you get your real name?" "First I'll ask you some questions. Who else do you live with then your father?" "it's just me and him" "ok….so, I think you might've told me that but…I answer your question now. I got my name because I am gifted. And no, not 'gifted' in a mean way, but I am gifted in the musical arts. I am the head of the drama club, I can sing really well, I can act and I'm smart..btu I wasn't bragging or anything."

"I have to agree, but the main thing is you're very very beautiful." I shut my mouth. He leaned towards me and I didn't move away. He pressed his lips to mine.

It was passion.

Heat

Love

Then it ended

"I have to go…I'm sorry we were having so much fun. I hope you don't mind if I pick you up tomorrow. Ok then…." I snapped my mouth shut as he walked out the door.

I couldn't wait for tomorrow.
