Enjoy.
'Tonight was going to be the best date ever.' May thought. She'd prove to Drew that Brendan was a good guy. She just had to. Drew and his stupidly sweet poetry proving what were the qualities a 'good guy'. Not all guys are like that. Brendan is a good guy. At least she thought so. The doorbell rang.
"That must be Brendan." May smiled looking into the mirror one last time making sure she looked perfect. She wore her little black dress. The dress had thin straps and crossed in the back. Her hair was out and wavy. She wore black heels. She smiled satisfied as she made a quick turn.
"May, Brendan's here." Her mother called. May smiled brighter.
"I'm coming mom." May grabbed her purse and walked downstairs to greet her boyfriend. She looked at the amazed look on her face. She smiled. "Like it?" She made a quick turn. Brendan nodded.
"I love it. You look great."
"Thank you." May smiled.
"Goodbye, Mrs. Maple."
"Bye mom." May said.
"Goodbye Brendan. Bye, May." Caroline said. "Don't forget curfew."
"I won't." It was 6:30. At least 3 hours until May's curfew. She'd probably get back home by 8:30, 9:00 if everything went right.
Brendan opened the car door for her. May noticed that they weren't at a fancy restaurant but they were at his house.
"Brendan, I thought we were going out. That's why I wore a little black dress."
"I wanted it to be a surprise. I cooked for you." He said to her.
"Brendan, I don't know. My parents-"
"Don't worry, I'll have you back by curfew. There's nothing to worry about." May sighed.
"What about your parents?" May asked.
"They're at a business meeting. They won't be back until tomorrow morning." Brendan smiled. "We have to house to ourselves." He kissed her hand innocently.
"But-"
"Calm down, May." He said softly opening the door for her letting go of his hand. "Don't you trust me?" He held out his hand for her to grasp. May slowly placed her hand on top of his hand.
'I guess I'll just have to see.' May thought.
May walked into Brendan's house. He really did cook. He lights were dimmed already. There were candles everywhere and Boys II Men were singing: her favorite old school group. May smiled and closed her eyes to smell the dinner Brendan had prepared.
"It smells wonderful." He held out her chair and she sat.
"I made your favorite: Grilled Salmon and Asparagus Pasta and for dessert: Chocolate Cake with strawberries."
"Umm. It look delicious." May said as her put a fancy plate in front of her.
"But first to start off… a Caesar salad." Brendan smiled and sat across from her.
May sat on the couch that was in the living room at was right across from where they were sitting.
"That was delicious, Brendan." May complimented. "I never knew you could cook."
"Well I did have a little bit of help but other than that, I cooked it for you." Brendan sat next to May. "This is my way of saying sorry… for everything-"
"No, Brendan-"
"Please, May. Let me finish. I'm sorry that I haven't been paying much attention to you. I just recently realized how much I really do love you. With all my heart I do." He touched her cheek. "Do you love me, May?"
May looked down not knowing what to say. Brendan sensed the tension in her movement. "I don't know..." she looked up at Brendan. "But I want to love you. I do. I think I am. I think about you all the time. I wonder what you talk about with your friends. I wonder if you think of me like I think of you. If that's what love is … then I love you with all my heart."
Brendan touched her cheek smiling. May smiled back at him. Brendan kissed her and held May held nothing back. Even when he laid her head of one of the arms of the couch, she held nothing back. May's eyes went wide when his hand went up the side of her leg with one hand and with the other felt her curves.
"Brendan." May said pulling away. He kissed her neck while his hand still continued up her leg. The other hand unzipped her dress. "BRENDAN!"
"huh?"
"Stop." May pushed him from off of her. "I knew I shouldn't have stayed." She zipped up her dress again and stood. "I want to go home."
"May chill." He pulled her arm so she could sit on his lap but she didn't budge. So he stood and wrapped his arms around her. "I won't hurt you." He kissed her neck… or at least tried to. May unwrapped herself from his arms.
"I'm serious, Brendan. I want to go home."
"Are you going to let a love like this pass you by?" Brendan said as May pouted. "I'd like to think of us as Romeo and Juilet. They were the same age as us if not younger."
"You're forgetting one small thing… They were married!"
"That was in the 1300's. People don't wait anymore."
"Well I do." May pouted. "If you aren't going to take me home, then I'll ask someone else."
"Like who? Your dad?" he taunted. "You'll get in trouble." May pulled out her cell phone and dialed a number.
"Hey... Can you give me a ride home?... Brendan's house… It's at the corner of Madison and Renee. Thanks… I owe you one." May looked at Brendan.
"I thought you loved me."
"I'm not giving myself to you!" May screamed.
"But we're dating. You're my girlfriend." Brendan whined.
"Keep this up and I won't be." May walked out and just then a car drove down the street.
