The radio blasts Emily Osment. We are playing the Indiana Jones: Lego Edition on my Xbox 360.
“Come on Indi!” I yell at the TV.
“Jump, jump!” Colin tells his player.
“I’m not sure he’s gonna listen,”
He pushes me and I fall over.
“Hey! Indi is gonna die if you do that!” I push him.
My stomach turns as I remember my dream about Colin. No, just don’t think about it.
I concentrate on Indi as he jumps from one platform to another.
Then the screen turns blank and Emily stops her solo on my radio, its dark all over the house.
“Power went out,” We say at the same time.
“Let’s check out the neighbor’s.” I go up to the window.
Their power is out too.
“Great, I wonder if Indi didn’t fall in mid flight.” I joke.
“Yeah, poor Indi,” Colin stands next to me. My heart burns with emotion remembering the dream.
I swallow hard.
“Are you still afraid of the dark,” He heard my swallowing.
“No,” I barley say. The dream takes over my mind, I can’t think about anything but the dream at this moment, why now?!
My stomach turns and my heart beats as sweat trickles around me.
“Alex, are you okay?” He grabs my face looking at me.
“Uh,” I run to the bathroom.
My face looks back at me. God, I’m in shock. I can see that. It’s just, wow. That dream is crazy and I know it.
Colin walks in and grabs my arm.
“I don’t, um, feel so good,” My eyes go to his.
“Is it the dark?”
“No,” The heart beats get faster.
“Then wh-,” I kiss him.
He didn’t even get to finish his sentence. The feeling just took me over. I feel warmer and better than before. My body and mind react with the kiss right away sending signals through me that say “Good choice,” he's so soft. The kiss is perfect. I feel relived and loved just like that.
We let go and we look at each other. My body is still in shock from everything. I feel like smiling and like running, it’s hard to choose which one so I don’t chose.
I clear my throat but don’t move. We keep on looking at each other.
My head goes down as I look at my feet.
“Um,” Colin spits out.
My head automatically goes up as if the “Um,” was a signal.
“I didn’t mean to do that,” I think the kisser should say that. They always do.
Our parents aren’t home. I wonder where they are; still at the restaurant?
It feels like the time has slowed down to the point of frozen time.
“Um,” I say this time.
“I’m sorry,” I add. The “I didn’t mean to do that,” quote just didn’t fit me.
It’s an awkward feeling in here.
“It’s okay, now I know you were really afraid of the dark,” He smiles.
“Excuse me?” I tilt my hip.
“Or you wanted me to shut up, chose.”
I’m not sure if I should tell him. It’s really big.
“Neither,” I barley say.
“Liar,”
“What?! I am not lying!” My anger grows.
“You’re defending yourself and you barley said neither, you were afraid to use me,” His mind makes up some out of nowhere ideas.
“Oh come on! No, I am not choosing any choice because I don’t agree to them,” I admit.
“Then why did you kiss me?”
I freeze getting into the shelves in my mind, I’m trying to find a lie; he doesn’t like me that’s obvious. Or maybe he does? I doubt it after what he’s doing right know!
I decide a lie isn’t that good. So I run out of the bathroom toward my room. When I get there I close the door and lean against it.
This is too hard for me to explain. It’s just unthinkable. Why did I do it? Are dreams that powerful?
“Alex, are you okay?” I hear Colin behind me.
“I don’t know,”
“Then what do you know?”
I can hear the confusion in his voice.
“Colin – this is very difficult okay,”
“Then let me in, I can help,”
I just look at my dark room with the window light shine in my white wardrobe corner which is right next to my colorful couch. Still wondering where the parents are, in these situations they should be here to stop this.
I feel a vibration in my pocket which is led with my All the Right Moves ringtone.
“Hello?” I answer it.
“Hey Lex, we’re gonna be home late; we’re at a party with Colin’s parents.” My mom says.
“A party?” Curiosity comes in.
“Yeah, I’m sorry I didn’t tell earlier. It’s just their neighbor has invited us, so we came.”
“You mean my English teacher?”
“Yes,”
“Okay, I gotta go; Colin is calling me over, bye love you.” My feet are slipping from leaning against the door.
“Okay sweetie, I’ll see you later, actually I’ll call you when we are coming home,”
“Great,”
“Love you!” She hangs up.
My feet made me slip and I end up butt first on the light wooden floor.
“So when are they comin’?” Colin speaks up.
“Who,”
“The parents,”
I push myself up.
“Late, really late; they’re at a party at your neighbor’s.”
“Oh, at least they have power and are havin’ fun,”
My hand opens the door and Colin almost falls backwards on me.
“Whoa!” He says as he stands up straight.
“You wanted fun, but this is funny, sorry,”
Colin looks at me with a serious face.
“What?”
“Alex, tell me something.”
“Tell you what exactly?” I can see the moon light shining into the loft.
“You kissed me.”
How could I have forgotten? I never forgot. It flows in my mind like water in a glass.
I pull him into my room and close the door behind him. We stand in front of the door without moving. A huge emotion blast hits me. My heart beats a smaller beat faster.
“I did kiss you,”
“Why?”
I swallow hard and look at him.
“I can’t,” I turn around walking to my bed.
Colin follows me.
“What’s wrong?” He grabs my hand.
I face him. I look at everything but him. The posters of celebrities on my walls make my room like a teenagers’.
“Alex,”
“I love you,” My heart makes me say.
Now the heart beats are faster but I feel relived and a bit scared at his answer.
“I mean a-,” I say.
That’s what my dream was showing me; all those feelings, everything.
“You um-.” He starts out.
He clears his throat in shock. We are still holding hands.
“Yes, I do,”
Shock runs through me like a rapid race. I can’t move, my thoughts have cleared but everything is really awkward.
Why aren’t the parents here!?
“Al, um,” He says.
“Wh-at?”
We let go our hands.
“I love you too,”
My heart rises and my face lights up; the stomach turning goes up and my heart smiles.
“Really,” I ask.
“Really,” I see his smile followed by mine.
Everything in me melts when I think about what Colin said “I love you too,” it’s amazing. I beg so it would stay this way forever. The feeling between us is warm and romantic.
I see him stepping closer to me. He grabs my neck and our lips touch again. My heart melts into love and everything is warmer. My mind is going crazy with happiness and dreams coming true.
His kiss is so amazing and deep, it just makes me melt.
We continue kissing in this dark moon light. Our feelings have intertwined and we land on my bed continuing our kissing. The warmth between us gets hotter and the silence make it perfect for us to be alone. All my feelings change to love mode for the very first time. He is my first kiss. I hope that he will be my first boyfriend.
