We interlocked our fingers and he walked me to the park where the cop had tackled me just a year ago. I smiled at the memory. At least my mom had been alive then. He found an empty park bench and pulled me down to sit next to him.

I sat down and looked around the park. "Sorry, do you want to leave?" said Dallas.

"I'm fine. . ." I said. "It just brings happy and fun memories, sometimes the occasional why the fuck did I do that memory!"

He laughed at the last comment and pulled his hand away to put it around me. I laid my head down on his shoulder and refrained from crying. "You do know it's alright to cry!" he said.

"I just don't think that my dad or mom would want me to." I said. "I think my mom would want me to be happy and my dad would just want me to stay out of trouble." I think about my dad who was in the psych ward. To think that my mother's death caused him to go there, he must have loved her very much.

"I guess. . ." he said. "Should we go tell our friends that we are, you know, going out?"

"Yeah but they'll probably say. . .FINALLY! GOD WHAT TOOK SO LONG? or something along those lines!" I said smiling.

"Oh so you liked me before this and didn't tell me!" he said, raising an eyebrow. "You little cheapskate!"

"Well I didn't know how much I REALLY liked you until you told me or actually kissed me because I always thought that what we did was what normal friends did!" I said, sheepishly.

"You. . .oh geez!" Dallas said. "I guess the subtle hints never work on you! I mean I ate off your plate and you let me! Did you see anyone else doing that?"

"Um I was more pre-occupied with getting my fair amount off your plate!" I said. "Besides who said that's what people do when they like each other?"

"I did! Plus have you ever let someone eat off your plate that you hated?" he said.

"Well no--!" I started.

"See!" he said, interupting me. "And you made me worry that you hadn't liked me at all!"

"I'm sorry!" I said. "What can I do to make it up to you?"

"Well. . .a hug and a kiss might help!" he said looking at me.

"Alright!" I said. I wrapped my arms ariund his neck and pulled him towards me. I kissed him lightly on the lips teasing him. He came towards me wanting more. I smiled and complied. I kissed him not taking a breath.
