he commanded. "It's Swift, dad. I'm back." I said closing my eyes and thinking about the times when he would take me out to the local icecream parlour. Good times. There was a silent pause. "Swift." repeated my dad softly with all strictness left his voice. "Where the boiling hell are you? I've searched all over the city for you and then the state but you weren't found! You know how much trouble you put me through! I thought you were dead for once! But the police said you weren't. I'm going to
chew you out when I track you down! Just watch yourself escape my fist!" shouted my dad. I smiled. I missed my dad shouting at me. "It's fine, dad. I've got no problem with that. I'm at your house anyways. So don't go looking all over the state for me! I'm right here at home." I informed him. "What's wrong with your accent, Swift? It's almost... Irish!" cried my dad. I loved my Irish accent. Coilin said it made me sound even cuter. My dad slowly worked his brain while I laughed an old Irish laugh. "You were in Ireland." he stated. I commented with a "mm-hmm". "Well. I'm going to deal with you later when I get home. Did you visit Aidan yet? His mo-" I interrupted him with a sigh. "Yeah. I know what happened. I'm not sure if I should..." go talk to him right now. I finished the sentence in my head. "He's at home, dear. Go ahead. Anyways, I gotta go. There's a serious case going on." the phone went dead. I bit my lip. I figured if this was the best time to go see him, so it was.


I stepped up the steps to Aidan's house. I blew out a deep breath. I rang the bell and looked down at my feet. I didn't want to face Aaron but it was the right time. The door opened. "Hey," said a sweet but sad voice. I looked up to see Aidan standing there, in his pajamas, leaning against the door frame. His eyes widened to see me. "You're not a ghost or anything? Right?" I shrugged. "I could be." I smiled. Aidan just shook his head. "Everybody thought you were dead." he informed me. "I know. Everyone's treating me that way." I shrugged. Aidan smiled. "So, you've got to come in and tell me everything that happened while you were gone." said Aidan holding the door wide open for me to come in. I stepped in hesitating. It's been longer than I've left New York than stepping in Aidan's house. I followed him up the lobby stairs and into the family room. We sat down on the couch and Aidan faced me. "Start from why you left and end to why you came back." said Aidan sitting cross legged on the space in front of me. "I wanted to get away from my sucky life. So I booked a ticket to Britain with the money I had earned from working at the local ice cream parlor and left. I began life there in Britain and used most of the money saved up for college and got a life there and then I moved to Ireland where I liked it more and then I came back here to visit my parents, you, my brother, Justin and yeah." I shrugged. Aidan shook his head. "In detail." I sighed. What mess had I gotten myself into? But it was for Aidan. "You want to hear it?" Aidan nodded and smiled. I began. I left out the part of Coilin and included everything else. "Wow. That's great. You seem to be having a nice life." commented Aidan. I smiled. "Not as easy as you think it is. Soooo, how have you been while I was developing an accent in Ireland?" I asked grinning. Aidan frowned. I frowned with him. "In detail." I added. "Well, when you went missing, I was freaked out. Everyone was. We didn't know where in the hell you were. Miley started thinking that I didn't care for her and everything. Things became rough between us and she left me to go hang out with some other emo dude. I tried to help your dad find out where you were and we found nothing. Miley got back together with me and then your dad called the search off. He said you were probably done for and if you weren't, he'd make sure you were or something. I dunno. Then me and Miley were together for almost forever. Then she suddenly broke up with me and hooked up with some other guy. Then she got murdered. So did my...mom." my eyes widened. I had totally forgotten about those facts. "Oh..." I gulped and bit my lip. Aidan looked up at me from under his blonde, flippy hair. "Would you feel offended if I say 'I'm sorry'?" I asked him. "Yes. Yes I would." he responded. "How about if I say 'I feel bad for you.'?" I asked. "I would still be offended especially if you say it in your accent." he said looking back down at his pajamas. "Would you mind if I hug you?" I asked. Aidan darted his eyes from his pajamas up at me. His icy glance said no. "Never mind that was... awkward. I'm sorry, it's just that in Ireland, I hug my friends when they feel sad and I do it a lot because they're usually sad and everything..." I trailed off to silence. "I should probably leave now, I make everything awkward and weird and random..." I got up but Aidan caught my hand. "I like your company. Come back tomorrow?" he asked me flipping his hair and getting up. I smiled. "Obviously! Maybe I'm being a bit too weird but... sure!" I said enthusiastically. Aidan smiled and was surprised by my enthusiasm. "I'm having second thoughts about that hug..." trailed off Aidan. I raised my eyebrows at him. He hugged me. I hugged him back. "You know, it's nice to have my human teddy bear back." laughed Aidan. I laughed with him too. He released me. "Now off you go. Tomorrow at five alright?" I nodded and left Aidan, smiling.
Coilin

My dream was weird and awkward like me. I dreamed of Coilin and the day he kissed me. It was... dreamy and sent a tingle down my neck...
I jumped up and down and put my left arm around Coilin's neck. "Finally, I've been accepted to play for the team! Now I can live without working full time!" I grinned. We were in my new condo I had bought. "Well, I'm glad that you're glad." said Coilin.
"I'm glad that you're glad that I'm glad."
"I'm glad that you're glad that I'm glad that you're glad.
"I'm glad that you're glad that I'm glad that you're glad that I'm glad that you're glad, I think." I said tilting my head. Coilin laughed. He was shirtless, today. It was too warm to wear a shirt for him. He put his arm around my waist and pushed me against the wall behind me. I was surprised. Coilin's abs were mesmerizing. I ran my free hand down them. "When did you get these?" I asked joking around. "That's not important, is it?" he asked catching my hand before it ran down his last ab. It was a six pack. It was important. He locked my fingers through his in my hand he was holding. He let go of my hand and my body. "Never mind. Just wanted to study you up close." he lied winking at me. I grabbed the white belt he was wearing to keep his black skinny jeans up but they stayed mostly down anyways. I pulled him back against my body. "Liar. You have no guts to kiss me, do you?" I dared him. Coilin studied my face for a while. He held my hands and I locked my fingers through his. He set his stormy gaze on me and a smirk danced on his face. "I would love to kiss you, Swift. Just not here, it's too... unromantic. I like kissing girls at the right moment, you know. When girls look back at the moment when they kissed, it should be memorable. Not awkward and stupid and embarrassing." explained Coilin. "But that's what makes a kiss romantic! But very well, then. If you would not like to kiss me, then I won't force you either." I pushed him off of me and walked into the kitchen. "Wait... what? I didn't say that I don't want to kiss you! I want it to be really, really cute! That's all." said Coilin stepping into the kitchen after me. "You're a beautiful liar. Bravo! How do they say it in Irish, again? Oh yeah. Arís! Arís! Wow! Amazing! Tá tú a liar hálainn!"*Again! Again! Wow! Amazing! You are a beautiful liar!* I clapped my hands and he bowed elegantly. "Go raibh maith agat. Do mo fheidhmíocht álainn seo chugainn ... beidh mé ag déanamh gnímh go dares aon duine iarracht. Kissing bean álainn." *Thank You. For my next beautiful performance...I will be doing an act that nobody dares to attempt. Kissing a beautiful woman.* I shook my head and laughed. "Where will you find a beautiful woman around here, mo chara?"*my friend* "I don't have to go look for one. A beautiful woman is in my gaze, right now." he said eyeing my whole body. I rolled my eyes. You think I'm pretty? Come down to the states, my friend and you'll find way more than you expected. I pulled out orange juice from the fridge and poured it into a glass from the cabinet. "Forget it, Coilin. I was kidding. I'm not serious." I laughed and shrugged. "Oh. But I am." said Coilin sitting down on the stool in front of me. The counter was the only barrier between us. Coilin leaned in towards me. His face was only inches away from mine. He ran his hand through my hair. I took a huge sip from my orange juice and gulped it down. He laughed. Every girl in town was jealous seeing Coilin by my side all the time. We were like best friends. I backed away from him and picked up my orange juice. I walked past him to the seat beside him. I jumped up onto the stool and scootched a bit closer to him so our shoulders were brushing. "See what I mean? You're making this kiss awkward! When you kiss, it should be outside in the moonlight or at a late night walk on the beach. Maybe an amusement park on the Ferris Wheel or even better! A chilly day at a cafe, warming up with somebody else. Or walking through the streets of Ireland." he said dreamily. "You're awfully romantic for a guy." I said breaking the silence.
