Into the Fire

White Line Fever

I wake up with arms surrounding me. I look up to see Ben, I smile and nudge him.

"Mm," He groans.

"Come on you big baby let's get up," I whisper.

"Five more minutes," He snuggles into me.

"You wanted me to go to school, so let's get ready," I climb on him.

I lean down and kiss his lips.

"Come on get up," I smile as he opens his eyes.

"Another and I'll get up," He grins.

I lean down and kiss his lips again.

He furrows his brows and closes his eyes.

"Mmm that wasn't a good kiss,"

I gasp, "are you saying I'm not a good kisser?"

"You better prove me wrong then," He smirks, staring into my eyes.

I playfully shove his face away as I climb off of him.

"Come baaaaack," He whines.

"I don't think so, come on get up," I tell him.

I get my clothes and go into the bathroom. I change and brush my hair. I grab my face cloth and wash my face.

I brush my teeth and exit the bathroom to find Ben still laying in my bed.

"What do I have to do to get you out of bed?" I ask, smiling at him.

He props himself up to look at me and thinks hard.

"How about you give me another kiss and agree to go on a date with me," Ben proposes.

"Hm I don't know, I have so much to do tonight," I sarcastically speak, walking over to him and kissing him lips.

He gives me the puppy eyes that I can't resist.

"Ugh fine, maybe I can fit you into my schedule," I grin, looking him in the eyes.

He wraps his arms around me and lays back down. I squeal and kiss his neck, due to my face being there.

"Roni, too early," Ben groans.

"I agree, get up,"

I get off of him and put my shoes on. I grab my bookbag and books as Ben climbs out of my bed.

"Your bed is so comfy," Ben comes up behind me and kisses my cheek.

"I know,"

Ben leaves my room and goes to his house, which I'm guessing is a few houses down.

Ben and I meet up and walk to school together.

"Roni!" I hear Cindy's voice.

"Hey Cindy, where'd you go last night?" I ask.

"Oh, I went home because I forgot I had homework to do," She explains.

Ben holds my hand as we walk to school.

I get to my class and sit down with Ben.

"It's nice to see you here Veronica," The teacher smiles at me.

I just smile back at her.

We get through the day and now I'm getting ready for the date with Ben. He said to dress fancy.

"Mom!" I call from upstairs.

"Yeah?" She comes into my room.

"How does this look?" I ask, looking at myself in the mirror.

"Oh hunny you look beautiful," My mom gushes.

"Thank you,"

"I love that dress on you,"

"Ben should be here anytime soon,"

"Is he going to come in through your window or through the front door?" My mom laughs.

"I told him to come through the front door," I laugh as well.

We hear the doorbell ring and I run downstairs, slipping on my heels and opening the door.

"Hey Ben," I grin.

He's wearing a suit and his hair is nicely done.

"W-wow Roni you look.. Gorgeous," Ben smiles at me.

"Thank you, you don't look too bad yourself," I wink at him.

"Okay well you guys have fun! WAIT let me get pictures!" My mom is ecstatic.

Ben wraps his arm around my waist and I lean on him. My mom takes like a hundred photos but eventually she lets us leave.

"Sorry about my mom," I laugh.

Ben opens the car door for me, I get in and he closes it.

He gets in on his side and smiles at me.

"Don't worry about it, you really do look gorgeous Roni," Ben leans over and kisses me.

"Thank you," I smile.

Ben drives us to wherever he planned the date for.

We get to a restaurant, he opens the car door for me and holds his hand out. I take his hand and get out, he closes it behind me.

We get into the restaurant and sit down at a booth, next to each other.

"So Roni, I've been meaning to ask you something," Ben speaks nervously.

"Sure, what is it?" I ask, smiling.

"I was wondering if you'd like to be my girlfriend?" Ben grins at me.

"Of course I'd love to be your girlfriend," I smile at him.

I place my hand on his cheek and kiss him.

The rest of the night was amazing.

Ben took me to his house and I met his parents.

Right now we're just laying in his bed cuddling.

"Thank you for the amazing night Ben," I thank him.

"Of course," Ben kisses me forehead as I fall asleep.
