"Eric, where are we going?"

"We're gunna get something to eat Cal." He replied.

Calleigh heard the mischief on his voice, and she narrowed her eyes at him.

"Mm, is that all Eric?"

"Yeah, Cal." He giggled knowing she knew that he was up to something.

"Yeah, ok Eric."

They sat in a comfortable silence for about 15 minutes as Eric drove to wherever the hell they were going. Finally, Eric drove into a parking lot, and parked the car. Calleigh heard a lot of commotion and began looking around. Eric had driven her all the way to the boardwalk. She turned to look at him, only to find him staring at her with a little smirk on his face.

"Eric!" She screamed at him.

"Calleigh!" He yelled back.

"You're amazing. You know how long I've been waiting to come here?" She asked him.

"Yeah Cal, that's why I brought you here. I feel like you did me a favor back there by calming me down before I beat the living shit out of him. So I figured I could do a little something for you. But enough talk, let's go!" He grabbed her hand and they headed in the direction of the boardwalk. They began walking all around the boardwalk and exploring all the different stores and what not.

"We can eat whatever you want to Cal." Eric told her.

"Alright, I think I want a slice of pizza and some fries maybe. You know any places around here?"

"Yeah, c'mon I'll show you." He tugged her in the direction of a little sit-down pizzeria on the boardwalk.

They sat, ordered and ate what they wanted, while making small talk with each other. When it was time to go, Eric paid the bill to Calleigh's dismay, and they got up and continued their journey on the boardwalk. As they were walking, they came across many of those game booths, were you win the stuffed animals. Calleigh noticed Eric's pace of walking was slowing down as they neared one of the booths.

"C'mon Cal, I'm gunna win you a stuffed animal." Eric told her.

"Eric, you do know that some of these games are like impossible right?"

"It's worth a shot Cal." He pulled her over to the water gun game, and she took a seat next to him even though she wasn't playing. They were surrounded by about 7 other people at the booth who were also seated at the seats and preparing to play the game. Calleigh secretly hoped that Eric would win her a stuffed animal, because she felt that it would be a cute gesture in the relationship.

"Okay is everyone ready?" The guy in charge of the game said.

"Yeah." Everyone answered in unison

"Okay, at the sound of the bell, the race begins."

Calleigh just stood there watching Eric spray the target with water, until the buzzard rang again.

"It looks like player number 3 has won the game."

"Eric, that's you!" Calleigh yelled at him, her whole face lighting up with her voice expression.

"See Cal, I told you I could do it. Now go pick out your stuffed animal."

"Um, I want that one." Calleigh pointed to a sky blue medium sized teddy bear. The man got it down form the high shelf that it sat on and handed it to Eric who gave it to Calleigh.

"Alright c'mon Calleigh, I want ice cream." Eric said and they started walking.

"Eric, I'M paying for the ice cream."

"No you aren't!"

"Yes, I am."

"Calleigh, why do you want to pay so badly?"

"Because Eric, I don't even know. I think I'm just so used to being independent when it comes to stuff like this, that it feels so weird when someone is offering to pay for something for you, and they don't even want you to sleep with them afterwards."

"Calleigh, you know I'm not like that. Everything that I do for you, I do it because I want to and I feel like you deserve it, a girl like you shouldn't have to settle for second best Calleigh, you only deserve top notch!"

"Eric, I swear it's like you always know exactly what to say to me to make everything better."

"I feel the same way with you Cal. Now look, you can pay here if you want to, but after this I don't want to hear it." He said as they neared up an ice cream stand.

"Okay Eric." Calleigh replied getting her money out.

Calleigh ordered a chocolate and vanilla twist on a waffle cone, and Eric ordered an orange sherbet and vanilla twist on a waffle cone. Calleigh paid, and they left.

"Look at the beach Cal!" Eric said. Calleigh looked at the beach and the sun was just beginning to set.

"Eric, that's beautiful can we walk down there?"

"Sure Cal."

They began walking down to the beach. Any on looking person would've thought that Eric and Calleigh were a young, and in love teenage couple. They decided to take seats on the warm sand that was beginning to cool from the process of the sun going down.

"Eric, you ate all that ice cream already?"

"Yeah Cal. You're just a big slow poke, but that ice cream you have their looks really good."

"Oh, you want some? Well here you go." She said smearing some of the ice cream on his face.

"C'mon Cal, that's not funny."

"I'm sorry Eric." She swiped some of the ice cream off with her finger and licked it. Eric used every morsel within his body, so he wouldn't become turned on.

"Here you go Eric." Calleigh said as she swiped some of the smeared ice cream, onto her finger, and she slipped her finger right between Eric's lips.

Oh fuck damn it!

Eric got semi-hard, but not enough for Calleigh to notice through his pants.

"Alright, I'm gunna stop teasing you Eric. Here you go." She passed him a napkin for him to wipe his face off, and then she leaned over and let him lick her ice cream cone.

"You're still not off the hook because you gave me some ice cream Cal."

Calleigh giggled.

"…Eric, I have a serious question to ask you." Calleigh told him.

"What is it Cal?"

"Why'd you get so pissed off when Wyatt was talking shit? I mean, a lot of guys I know would've let him think that we were fucking. But I don't completely understand…" Before Calleigh could even finish what she was gunna say, Eric's lips were on hers thoroughly kissing her. They ran out of breathe and slightly pulled back from each other.

"Calleigh, I'm sorry I did that something just took over me….."

"Shhhh, don't be sorry." She whispered, cutting him off. She bit her lip and leaned in to kiss him again, this time wrapping her arms around his neck, cupping the back of his head. They ran out of breath again this time and pulled away from each other.

"I want to be able to do that whenever I want to Eric. I know we haven't known each other for long, but I trust you with my life Eric, and that's scary. I've been through some things in the past. Just please don't make me regret this."

"Calleigh, I trust you with everything also, but you're past does not matter to me. Right now, all I care about is you, I promise."

"Mm, come here Eric." Calleigh said as she grabbed a handful of his shirt and pulled him down on top of her. She just emptied all of herself into the kisses she gave him. And he more than willingly took it.

She gave him 3 last kisses on the lips before he pulled back and said, "Look babe, people are staring at us."

Calleigh looked back and giggled at the people who were staring at the 2 teenagers.

"C'mon Cal, let's go." Eric said as he got off of her, and helped her up. Calleigh picked up all of her belongings including her new teddy bear that her new boyfriend won for her. The couple intertwined fingers and started walking back towards the boardwalk, so Eric could take his girl home after a wonderful night.

They got to the car, and Eric opened the door for Calleigh, and then jogged around to the driver's side. As soon as he got in and situated, him and Calleigh were holding hands, and he was driving in a comfortable silence. Eric looked over just as Calleigh began nodding off to sleep he smiled at her and just shook his head. All too soon, Eric pulled up in front of Calleigh's house.

"Babe, wake up." He said softly, but Calleigh didn't budge. "Cal, you got to wake up." She still didn't move an inch. "Awe, fuck it." Eric said as he pressed his lips firmly against Calleigh's. Her eyes immediately fluttered open as she parted her lips to let Eric's tongue in her mouth, and wrapped her arms around his neck.

"I wouldn't mind waking up to that every day." Calleigh said when the kiss was over.

"Me either."

"Eric, I don't want to go home. I want to stay with you." Calleigh whined.

"Baby, I want to stay with you too I swear, but I don't think your dad would like it if I kidnapped his daughter!"

"I don't care. Don't leave me Eric."

"Why don't you want to go home Cal?" Eric asked making sure that nothing unseemly was happening in her household.

"It's really nothing bad at all; I just don't want to leave you Eric. You always make me happy whenever I'm with you and if I go home now, I'm probably just gunna be bored and fall asleep and that's just boring."

"Querida, you and I both know that you're gunna have to go home sooner or later…"

"Um, I choose later."

"But Calleigh, you're on curfew remember, and you're not getting in trouble, because then you're dad would probably punish you and we wouldn't be able to see each other at all for a little bit."

"Alright Eric." Calleigh said as she opened the car door, but Eric grabbed on to her elbow, and pulled her back in the car.

"Oh, I don't get a goodnight kiss?" Eric asked her.

Wow, I must be a damn good kisser, 'cuz Eric keeps on coming back for more.

Calleigh giggled at him, and then leaned in to give him a goodnight kiss, which accidentally turned into an entire make out session. Eric's arms were wrapped around her entire body, holding her close to him, and Calleigh just loved the feeling of being wrapped in his arms, with his lips on hers, with her tongue in his mouth. They pulled back from each other.

"Sheesh, you gunna say goodbye to me like that every night?" Eric asked.

"Maybe." She gave him as a reply.

"What are you doing when you get home tonight?" He asked.

"Oh nothing, I'll probably just take a shower and kill myself of boredom." She said. He laughed at her sarcasm.

"Alright well, give me a call before you kill yourself of boredom, I may be able to save you." He told her.

"Okay!" she said and her attitude perked up.

"You want me to walk you to the door?"

"No, you never know, my dad may be watching us."

"Oh, good thinking Cal."

"Well, I guess I'll see you later Eric." She said as she gave him 3 last kisses on the lips before she opened her car door to get out.

"See ya later hun." He said to her. She finally got out of the car, walked up to the front door and unlocked it. She turned around to wave at Eric (he waved back) and she entered her house. First, she saw her dad passed out on the couch in front of the TV that was still playing. Calleigh went up to him and woke him up hoping that he was really sleeping, and not back into his old habits.

"Oh hey lambchop." Kenwall said to his daughter.

"Hey daddy. You alright?" She asked him, thankfully not smelling any alcohol on his breathe.

"Yeah, I'm good; I just fell asleep while I was watching a movie."

"Oh. Well, you better get to bed soon daddy, you have work tomorrow."

"Yeah, I know lambchop. How was your date with Eric?"

"Daddy, it wasn't a date, and it was amazing!"

"Amazing, huh? You must like him."

"Goodnight Daddy." Calleigh said as she began walking up the stairs to her room.

"Goodnight Calleigh, I love you." Kenwall said to her as he laughed at her changing the subject.

"Love you too Daddy."

"Hey honey." Analia greeted her son.

"Hey mom. How was your day?" Eric asked his mother before giving her a kiss on the cheek.

"Oh, I can't complain. Were you just with Calleigh?"

Calleigh…Eric smiled at the sound of her name.

"Yeah, I was just with her mom. Why?" He replied with the stupid smile sitting on his face.

"Well I kind of knew because, she's all you've been talking about lately and when I said her name, you got this stupid "in love" smirk on your face querido."

"Mommy, I'm not in love."

At least I don't think I am. I can't be in love, me and Calleigh aren't even officially dating, are we?

"You're right Eric, you aren't in love, but you're falling in love."

"How do you know mom?"

"Eric, I'm your mom, I gave birth to you, right out of my own womb. Don't you think I'd know if my baby boy was falling in love with someone?"

"Whatever you say mommy."

"Look Eric, it's late and you have work tomorrow, so you better go get some shut-eye while you can and I changed your bed sheets for you already."

"Oh mom, you're a goddess." Eric said as he kissed his mom goodnight.

-Phone Conversation-

"Hello?"

"Hello? Hey Calleigh." Eric said

"Hey Eric, What's up?"

"Ohhh nothing much Cal, I take it you didn't kill yourself yet huh?"

"No, but I was just getting my gun ready too!"

"Calleigh, you can't kill yourself honey, I like you too much for that, I need you Cal."

"Awe Eric, I like you too, a lot!"

"That's good to know Calleigh."

"I wish we could've stayed the night together Eric. Well, you know not to do stuff like that, but just to be together."

"Calleigh that was the furthest thing from my mind."

"What are you doing tomorrow Eric?" Calleigh asked him, wondering if he would want to come over.

"I have to work ALL day querida. Why?"

"I was gunna ask you to come over." Calleigh said.

"Baby, you know I would if I didn't have to work."

My God, i love it when Eric calls me baby. He sounds so sexy.

"I know Eric, but I really want to see you tomorrow." Calleigh told him.

"Maybe I'll stop by after work. Will your dad mind?"

"He probably will, but I don't care I'll sneak out."

"Alright, you better not get caught Calleigh."

"Oh, Eric, I won't!"

"So anyway, what are you doing Calleigh?"

"Watching TV." Calleigh says while letting out a big yawn,

"Sounds like someone is tired! Calleigh, go to sleep honey, get some rest."

"Eric, why are you always trying to get rid of me?"

"Cal, I'm not trying to get rid of you."

"I hope not Eric. Well, I know you have to work tomorrow, so I guess I'll let you go."

"Alright Cal. I'll probably call you or text you once I get bored at work."

"Okay. Goodnight Eric."

"Alright, I'll talk to you later Cal."

Any Suggestions ? ' i'll try to incorporate them as long as they aren't off the wall.

But anyway , what's with Eric not being sure if him and Calleigh are "dating" or not ? And , how come neither of the kids told their parents about the relationship ? Is Calleigh really trying to sneak out to go see Eric ? Is Eric going to kick Wyatt's ass ? lmfao . Those are some really good questions. (:

Okay , well go review and tell me whatcha think ! ;)
