Chapter 2- Meetings and Greetings
I had just finished packing for a weekend with my parents and Kellan. I was just getting in the car, when Shane comes barreling down the drive way… with my father? This can't be right, they hate each other!
'Hey Danvers, Do you mind? Your dad said I could meet your other playmate'' Shane said with a wink, as I blushed so hard I looked like a tomato
''Shut up, Shane. Parents!'' I whispered, pointing at my fuming parents in the front seats
.
''Yes, well, let's go see Kellan'' My Father scowled at the both of us warningly.
Just as we reached the drive way of my Parents house, we see Kellan standing in the doorway waving. He gives me a teethy grin and I can't help but give one back, not noticing Shane's pissed expression.
''Wow, Claire Bear, if that grin gets any bigger, you might win first prize for best impersonation of the joker' Shane grumbles. I turn to Shane and give him a quick kiss on the cheek, while raising an eyebrow
''What's up? Jealous Collins?'' I smirk before jumping out of the car to meet Kellan for the first time in 3 years.
''Kellan!'' I yell excitedly, as I squeeze Kellan in a huge hug. Kellan always has been easy on the eyes, but his features had sharpened from the round face cherub he used to be. His emerald green eyes, shaggy mousy brown hair, which is messy in all the right ways and his strong jaw line, but one thing I noticed that's changed the most is how his skin is practically glowing and the shade of ivory, new moisturiser maybe?
''Claire Dare. How you been?'' he asks and Shane joins us and wraps his arm around my waist and pulls me in protectively as I just roll my eyes, boy will be boys I suppose.
''Claire Dare? Hey man, Shane, Claire's boyfriend.'' Shane questions
''Oh yeah, we went to a party at my friend's house, Jonno's, about...what? 3 years ago now? Anyway, let's just say we got Claire to play 'Truth or Dare' except it was all dare'' Kellan chuckled as he explained the story.
I blush harshly and clear my throat to say ''Yeah, about 3 years ago and never again. So… shall we go in?'' I say, desperatly trying to change the subject.

Kellan's POV
Wow, Claire looks amazing, she still looks the same, but different in a good way though. She's got this glow about her and looks so much more confident than she did 3 years ago.
I suppose I can contribute to her insecurities but I'm not about to let guilt ruin what little time I have left with her.
Even though she doesn't know it, she was my first love and I don't think I can let her slip through my fingers a second time. I can't, she was everything to me, my best friend, my confidant, my first love but most of all my everything. I refuse to lose her this time; she's all I have left.
I don't think I am going to continue this story as I really have no motivation for it and I really don't think I captured the characters personalities right but I did edit each chapter a little bit because it was really annoying me. Thank you for taking to time for reading this, you're amazing! :))
