"You look really pretty"

"Thank you" I say looking at the ground

"Can we talk? Privately?"

"Sure" I sigh and we walk away from the crowd to sit on the grass

"I've been trying to call you but you haven't picked up"

"I'm grounded sorry, my phone got taken away"

"Grounded? And at a party?"

"Yeah, you know my moms not the best at grounding me" I chuckle

"I was worried when you wouldn't pick up, Frankie said you were okay, why are you grounded?"

"I got called drinking at Coachella"

"Oh"

"Yeah" I sigh it feels a little awkward

"How long are you grounded for?"

"Seven weeks, I think I finally drove mom to her limit"

"I see you have braces again"

"Yeah, I had to get surgery"

"Kas listen" he sighs "I really like you, I've liked you for  a few years now, and I liked what we had a few weeks ago, and I get thinks might not workout because I'm leaving soon, but I need you to know that I still like you, and I hope when I come back, I can take you on a date" he says

I have no idea how to respond to him so I just smile and he leans in closely to kiss me

The kiss is very gentle, to not hurt me from my surgery

But it's nice, it's familiar

"Kassandra!" I hear a voice behind me which startles both of us out of the kiss

"Travis what the fuck are you doing here?"

"I should ask you that question, you had very specific instructions to not be out of my sight, yet you did, I've been looking for you for like ten minutes"

"Travis, we weren't doing anything"

"You guys weren't kissing?"

"What you don't kiss my mother?" I snark

"That's different, now go get back to your friends, or we're leaving"

I stand up rolling my eyes at him as I walk back to Sam and Travis is walking behind me

"Sorry I invited him, I wasn't going to, but you know our parents are close"

"It's okay Sam, we're both your friends, this is exactly why i went years ignoring the fact that he liked me, I knew it would get between our friendship"

"Yeah well even if it does we're taking your side"

"Can we please forget about this and have fun? I'm not going to see you guys for another six weeks, it'll be hell"

🤍🤍🤍

"How was the party?" Mom asks smiling coming in to my room and sitting in bed with me

"It was fun, thanks for letting me go"

"You're welcome" she says holding my hand "Travis told me what happened"

"I swear I didn't mean to mom" I sigh "Diego asked if we could speak and the music was a little loud, so we got away from the crowd to speak, i didn't mean to scare him"

"Oh so it was Diego?" She smirks "Travis told me you were making out with a boy, he didn't know who it was"

"Yeah, but your boyfriend was overreacting! It was just a small kiss-"
