CHAPTER FOUR
I Walked Over To Dylans House And Rang The Bell. ‘MOMMA! ZAC’S HERE! I’LL BE HOME LATER!’ I Heard Her Yell As She Opened The Door. ‘Alright Hunny! I’ll See Yawl Later! Have A Good Time!’ Mrs. Williams Said Closing The Door, But Not Before Shooting Us A Smile. ‘What Time Did You Get Up? I Was Shocked When You Called Me So Early!’ I Said As We Walked Off Her Lawn. ‘Oh Zac!’ Mrs.Williams Said Opening The Door. ‘Yea?’ I Asked Looking Back. ‘Did You Ask Your Mom?’ She Said Holding Her Housecoat Closed. ‘Oh Yeah Sorry! She Said No Problem!’ I Stood On The Sidewalk Turned To Face Her. ‘Great! Tell Her Thanks And That I Owe Her One!’ She Started Back In The House. ‘Dude, Im Comin Back To The Hanson House!’ Dylan Said Punching My Arm, The Same Arm She Punched Last Night. ‘OWE! Man I Swear You’re A Guy!’ I Said Rubbing The Spot. She Smiled That Innocent Smile Again. ‘Well I Try!’ All Of The Sudden I Had A Weird Feeling Rush Over Me And I Stopped Walking. Dylan Didn’t Know And Kept Wallking, Until She Turned To Say Something To Me. ‘Zac? Whats Wrong?’ She Said Looking Back. ‘What? Oh Nothing! Im Fine! I Thought I Heard My Name!’ I Said Walking Back Up To Meet Her. ‘Oh! So Wheres The Fair?’ She Asked Not Assuming Anything. I Shook My Head. ‘Actually Right Beside In And Out!’ I Said Grinning. I Don’t Know What Just Happened But I Cant Let It Destroy My Dad With My Best Friend, My Beautiful Best Friend. I Stopped Again. My BEAUTIFUL Best Friend? I Looked At Dylan Who Was Still Walking, Unaware Again That I Wasn’t Beside Her. ‘Dyl Im Sorry I Cant Go To The Fair, Im Not Feeling Well! I Gotta Go Home! I’ll Call You Later!’ I Felt Bad Leaving Her And On Top Of That Lying, But What Was I Supposed To Say? I Just Realized Your Hot? I Had To Think About This. ‘Alright, No Problem! I Just Hope Your Feeling Alright! Call Me For Sure Later! Promise?’ She Asked In Her Very Understanding Way. ‘Yeah, I Promise! Im Really Sorry!’ I Said As She Walked Back To Me. She Smiled And I Got A Huge Lump In My Throat. ‘It’s Alright Zac! Go Home And Rest! I’ll Talk To Ya Later!’ She Walked Past Me And Back Towards Her House. The Minute She Was Out Of Sight I Let Out A Huge Sigh Of Relief. ‘What In The WORLD Was That Zac?’ I Asked Myself Aloud. I Started Home And Began To Think Of Excuses To Tell My Parents.
