moved here because of that. My mom works as a dentist here, and I know all my neighbors, we've started a new life." 

I noticed the time read 6:45 on the analog clock near the exit of the door. My dad was planning on going to a restaurant at 7pm.

"I hate to say this, but I've got to go." I said.

"Nah, it's alright. Go ahead, it's getting dark anyways."

Side note 2

"So what happened after your first date with him?" The man asked.

"Nothing for a few weeks. I guess now that I think of it, it was a blessing in disguise because I was always working on unpacking," Krystal started, "wait, I'm telling you a lot about myself. You don't tell me about yourself."

"There's not much about me I guess."

"Start with your name atleast."

"Brian. I'm 28... and i fish... I'm telling you, there's not much about me."

"Fine..."

"Please, continue about the story... you've intrigued me."

Krystal shrugged and started again with her story.

"July, July 4th, that was when we actually started our first actual date..."

 

Fireworks

After meeting the boy at the lake, I always went outside to find him, everyday. Sadly, everytime I tried to find him, failure seemed imminent. So long days passed without me ever talking to anybody other than my Dad.

"Dad, I don't think I'll go out today."

"Why not? Isn't your boyfriend waiting for you?"

"Ugh! He is not  my boyfriend."

"Oh, so there is a guy you look out for, he must be pretty cute to have you going out everyday." My father chuckled.

"He isn't ever there."

"Oh darling, it isn't good to lose hope. I'm alright if you ever have a boyfriend or whatever. Go outside, even if it seems as if he isn't gonna be there."

I let out a short sigh. I had nothing to lose, other than time that I had a ton of. It wasn't long until I found myself into the hotel's lobby. Looking down into frustration, I couldn't see Westley looking at a ton of paintings that the hotel displayed. "Oooh, this is quite nice." I heard near me. Curiously, I look to my left, and I find a familar blue eyed boy staring down paintings. 

"Westley!"

"Uh- what?" he was puzzled till his eyes met me. They say absence makes the heart grow fonder. How right they were! I couldn't help but run up to him and almost knock him down. He let out a smile and wrapped his arms around me. "Don't worry, I'm here."

His voice was so soft, and sincere. I could melt in his arms. "I was actually looking for you Krystal."

"Why?"

"I was going to formally ask you out on a date."

"Oh. Well go on then."

Westley theatrically cleared his throat and said, "Would you care to join me under the fireworks tonight at 5:30 near the lake?"

"Would I!?" I check my watch, astonished, it read 5:25. "It's 5:25 already..."

Westley smiled, "Is that a no?"

"I couldn't ever say no to that offer. I just have to tell my dad, don't worry, it'll be quick."

"Don't worry about me, I'll be here."

I rushed to my hotel room on the 4th floor. Quickly, I inserted and then extracted the card from the reader. There was a short click. I opened the door. 

"Dad?" I yell.

"I'm here."

I see him watching tv on one of the beds. 

"Umm.. Can I-"

"Go on a date with the boy that's downstairs in the lobby?"

"Yeah, how did you kn-"

"Yeah sure, go, have fun."

"Thanks Dad."

Without any sense of stopping, I make it downstairs in the lobby. I see Westley sitting on one of the chairs. He finds me and winks. "Ready?" He asked. I nodded. He took my hand, "Follow me."

 He led me to the lake. There was a small boat a few meters away. There was quite a crowd gathered around the lake. I'm guessing that this is an annual thing. Westley looked at his watch. "Just a bit longer" he said. I saw Westley gaping into the sky. He was so interested into what was gonna happen. I'm feeling gutsy. I cautiously move my hand. As soon as I could feel Westley's hand, he stopped looking at the sky and looked at me. He smiled, and we soon started to hold hands. I could feel a warmth swelling up inside me, it was like a fire that was burning suddenly exploded. There was a loud pop followed by a feint screech.

Fireworks.

There were "Oooohs" and "Aahhs" coming from the crouds, but Westley and I never stopped adoring each other's eyes. Slowly, we both closed our eyes, in anticipation of what was coming.

We kissed. Time slowed to a stop, and I could feel our connection. It was my first kiss and I never knew that it could become so overwhelming. Time started to go back into play. It was a short kiss, about a second long. I was there just thinking about what just happened. I saw Westley in front of me, wondering if he made the right move or not. I smiled, Westley got the message and kissed me again. It was definately the right move. It was a picture perfect moment, Westley and I kissing over and over again while there were fireworks as if to celebrate my happyness.

After we finished kissing, (AN: I have no way else to say it) we scooted closer to each other. As the fireworks casted it's light upon the spectators faces, I rested my head upon Westley's soft shoulders. Westley embraced me by pulling me closer with his arm, sharing our warmth.

If there ever was a word to describe the feeling I have now.

Perfect.

Side note 3

Brian laughed wildly. Krystal was confused. "What? What's making you laugh?"

"Oh jeez, it's so cheezy, it's so hard not to laugh."

"Try harder then."

Brian calmed down to silent chuckles. "Okay, okay. What happened after your first date?"

"At the end of the date, we gave each other our phone numbers, so that we could contact each other."

"Wait, you have his number? Why didn't you call him or something after all these years?"

"I did, or I tried to, his number got disconnected."

"Too bad for you."

"Apparently so."

"So anyways, a few weeks later, I noticed why he was never near the lake. I noticed by walking around the area and I saw him with a group of his friends..."

Close Pack

I figured that it would clear my mind a little if I got to know the area. I started off near the lake and started towards the near houses. I found an elementary school, and I looked closer at it, I saw kids playing in the fields. The kids looked older than elementary students. I might as well make new friends.

As I walked closer to the students, I noticed a familar figure. Westley! Plus two of his friends. They were talking in the grass near the school. I slowely walked towards them. It's not like I didn't want them to see me, I just didn't want to interrupt their time together. I was a few yards away when Westley was the first to spot me. He looked surprised for a moment, then he smiled.

"Hey, guys, I want you to meet a beautiful girl, her name is Krystal," he pointed at his friends, "meet Lionel and Christy."

I waved to them, Lionel smiled, except Christy, she just looked at me for a second and then nodded. It looks like I'm not on good terms with her for some reason.
