John silently walks up our driveway with a large smile on his face. My mouth is ajar and I watch him greet my parents with a hug. Like we are still together. So I can remind you all that John was my boyfriend last year during junior year. We broke up when he moved miles away and I knew a long term relationship wasn't going to happen. Days later I see him with another girl. "What are you doing here?" My mouth spills out and my mom shouts my name. I bring my attention to her and she has a shocked look on her face. "You shouldn't say that, it's rude!" I shrug, bringing my attention back to John. Oh how much he has changed. His body seems more uplift like he lost a lot of weight. I wonder if those abs of his are hard like rocks. I see the tight fit of his shirt crease every time a muscle moves. His brown hair is pulled up and the corner of his eyes crease when he smiles. His brown eyes are coursing through mine likes he trying to give in. "I'm back." His low voice finally says while dad chuckles and pats his should before leaving us on the driveway. Mom says welcome back before following dad inside the house and leaving me alone with my ex. "What do you mean back? Are you visiting or something?" He shakes his head, swinging his keys around that are attached on his lantern. "No as in I'm back in town. I'm staying here." "Forever?" "Forever." I finally close my mouth in shock, looking down at the ground. "Listen Adeline I'm here at your house for a reason." I flinch at his hand brushing my arm, goosebumps rising off my skin. "What's the matter?" "I miss you." He sighs while running his hand over his long soft hair. God how much I miss running my fingers through it. "Last year when I wasn't here I wouldn't stop thinking about you." "But-" I pause, seeing the sadness in his eyes. I feel bad as if I do something wrong. After all it was a struggle for me through our breakup. I was so upset meanwhile he moved on so quickly. I shake my head, taking a step back from him. "-But you had a girlfriend." "And even with her I wouldn't stop thinking about you." He moves closer to me, closing the space between us when my back hits my dad's car. "And what are you trying to say to me now?" He licks his lips, looking down at me. He is so tall, he must have grew more. "I wanna get back with you." I furrow my eyebrows because I'm so confused. He comes back to town and right away wants to get back with me? "I don't know. We broke apart and now-" "That was the past now is the present. Let's start all over like we haven't met each other." John presses his hand on my arm. "Adeline will you go on a date with me?" I open my mouth in shock, not knowing what to do. This feels so wrong, as if I love someone more than I did for John. "Um- I... Ugh..." I try to let out words but I'm stuttering. I don't know what to say? Should I deny him? "Please. Fresh start. I miss you." His chocolate eyes are pleading with me and I can't help but stare in them. "You miss me so much even though when you left you jump to another girl like I wasn't a second thought to be upset about. John, we did so many things together and I was upset for all of those to turn into dust in my head." He leans in closer, I feel his legs brush along mine. I wonder if anyone if watching us because if they are that's weird. "I know and I didn't just jump because I didn't care about you. I moved on and now I can't stand the fact of being away from you." John pauses. "So please go on a date with me." "When? Where are we going to go?" I ask him and he purses his lips into a thin line. "How about Tuesday when school ends? We can meet by your locker and I can drive us downtown to a coffee shop or something?" He gestures and I bite my lip indecisive. "Okay, fine. My locker is at the same spot since you left." A long dark smile appears on his olive tone skin. "Great, I'll see you Adeline. Hopefully we have some classes together." I nod my head, a smile appearing on my lips also. He suddenly wraps his arms around my body and I gasp at the feeling. Not the feeling of a boy hugging me tightly. A feeling as someone else is hugging me. I don't see the lawn of my house but I'm in another building. There are other people around me but they seem blurred. Someone grabs my attention and I turn around, grabbing him in my embrace. He has dark hair and pale skin. That's the only thing I can recognize. I pull away from John quickly but there was no where to go because I'm leaning up against the car. John's face is drawn in confusion, staring down at me while I feel a line of sweat form on my forehead. "Are you okay?" He asks, his voice shaken up with worry. I nod my head, moving away from him. "I'll- ugh, see you tomorrow at school." He quietly nods his head while I go up the porch and inside my house. Mom and dad were in the kitchen when I approach them. They stare at me with long smiles on their faces. I pause on my tracks, furrowing my eyebrows and looking at them. "What?" I say. "The first one always comes back." Mom whispers while wrapping her arms around dad. I groan, rolling my eyes and walking up the stairs. I can't hear all this cliche love movie speeches mom says. She's too obsessed. I go up to my room and I hear my phone start ringing in my backpack. I sigh, tossing my backpack on my bed and looking through it. I take my phone out and I see that it's Rebecca. "Hey what's up." I say, taking off my shirt. "Are you okay?" I furrow my eyebrows, taking off my spandex. Now I'm in a sports bra and underwear. "Yeah why." "I heard that you like passed out during the tournament." "Oh that, well yeah I'm fine. I'm home now getting ready to go shower." "You know what that means." "Oh god, what." I grab a clean towel from my closet and I wrap it around my body. "Let's go out drinking!" She sings and I have to pull my phone away from my ear because she's loud. "What does that mean?" I say when she stops singing. "It means that I'm coming over right now and we are going to a bonfire in the woods." "Who the hell is going to that?" "Everyone from school! Seniors allowed only." "I don't know. We have school tomorrow and I'm thinking I should-" "-nope you are coming with me." I lose in defeat, walking to the bathroom. "Fine, I'll come. I'm hanging up with you because I'm going to go shower." "Yes! Great I'm coming around seven. Love you bye!" She hangs up before I can respond back. I put music on my phone and I hop in the shower.~~~~~~~
