Kate looked over past an oak tree in the park to watch Eli catch a Frisbee in an astounding feat of muscle as he leapt high into the air. He, Billy, Tommy, and Teddy were enjoying the summer atmosphere in athletics, while she and Kate sat on a picnic blanket with Jonas. Kate's eyes landed on Eli again as he crouched down on the ground, Frisbee in hand.
The young man was growing up fast. He had only just a few weeks ago asked her if she would like to be his. Kate, having finally cleared her mind, accepted his offer and they had been dating. Kate felt as if she was falling in love with the young man, but sometimes she felt that he was more engrossed in hero duties than in her.
Not that she was one to desire constant attention and affections, but she would've liked it better if he gave off an air of love. Not a façade either—a true aura of happiness to be with her.
She worried her lip, taking it between her teeth. She hoped with every fiber in her being it wouldn't be a summer fling. She longed to take his hand and ask him. Find out if he had fallen for her the way she had for him. She had wanted this so long, and now that she had it she was doubting.
She had backed out a few times. She sighed, This summer belongs to you.
What would come would come, but she would one day truly find out.
