         “Thank you, except it can.”  I get up from the table and go to walk off , but he pulls me back and into his lap.
     
         “Hey, what are you doing?”  I ask kind of panicked because I know people can see me sitting in his lap.
     
         “I just wanted to touch you some more before I let you go.”  I blush because of his words , but decide I’m sick of him always getting the last laugh, so I decide to play along.
     
         “Oh, well in that case … ” I put my arms around his neck and give him a kiss. 
     
         “That’s what I’m talking about , ” h e says.  It doesn’t matter what I do or say, he’s always ready for me.  I can never out do him.
     
         I laugh at him and say , “ W hatever , ” as I walk away.
     
         The rest of the day passes quickly.  I had two tests that I had been studying for and between that and my basketball game I didn’t really have time to think about anything else.  I told Cash last hour that I was going straight home today because I had a lot to do. 
     
         “I’ll see you tonight, be careful , ” he sa id as he left me in the hallway.
     
         “You too , ” I told him walking back to my locker.  When I got there , I saw Jessica down the hallway.
     
        “Jess!”  I yelled so she could hear me. 
 
         “Hey Mil, what’s up?”
     
         “A lot , actually . ” I crossed my arms.
     
         “Okay, why are you looking at me like that? ”   She asked .
     
         “Jess, um m , I, look , I’m just gonna come at you straight with this on e , ok ay ?”
     
         “Alright.”
     
         “Are you and Jake together?”
     
         She looke d at me and immediately I knew the answer.  “Millie, I don’t know why you think that.  Jake and I have nothing in common.”
     
         “Jess, I know you’re seeing him, I can tell.”
     

     She looked around and then back at me.  “Can you keep a secret?”  I nodded.  “Well, we’ve kind of been seeing each other for like a month or so.”
     
         “Oh , my gosh!   Are you serious?  When, how?”
     
         “Well, it just kind of happened.”
     
         “ Jess, you ’ r e gonna have to do better than that.  Details, I want details!”
     
         “Okay, it was before school started.  I spent the night with Cara and I had just gotten out of the shower and I realized I hadn’t brought my clothes in the bathroom.  So, I opened the door and peeked out to make sure no one was out there.  Right as I peeked out , Jake came around the corner.  He asked me what I was doing and I told him I forgot my clothes.  So , I was standing there in just a towel and we both just stared at each other for a couple of minutes.  He told me to hang on and went to his bedroom and got me some shorts and a T-shirt .  I told him thank you and before I could get anything else out , he kissed me.
     
         “Oh , my gosh!   Right there in the hallway, with Cara and their folks there?”
     
         “ Yup, Millie it freakin g rocked!  At first, I was like, no , no , no.  I kept thinking what is he doing?  But then , I relaxed and the kiss was just…amazing.”
     
         “What did he say after?”
     
         “Well, I broke the kiss and after I came back to reality, I realized where I was and that I was standing there naked with nothing but a towel, I kind of freaked out a bit.  I didn’t say anything because I mean, this is Cara’s brother, you know?  So anyway, he stood there with his arms around me and said, “I have wanted to do that for a couple of years.”
     
        “Wow, Jess, I can’t believe it!”
     
         “I know , me either.”
     
         “Okay, so what’s the problem?  Why can’t anyone know?  Are you guys just messing around, do you not think it will last long?”
     
         “No, of course not.  He’s being ver y
