“It’s fine, we had plans to watch a movie anyway. What time? How long do you want us to keep them?”
 
“Doesn’t matter. We aren’t going anywhere. I just need a couple of hours alone with Lake. There’s something I need to give her.”
 
“Oh… I see,” he says. “Just text me when you’re through ‘giving it to her,’ and we’ll bring the boys home.”
 
I shake my head at his assumption and laugh. I like Gavin. What I hate, however, is the fact that everything that happens between me and Lake, and he and Eddie…we all seem to know about. That’s the drawback of dating best friends…there are no secrets.
 
“Let’s go, Babe.” Eddie says as she pulls Gavin up off the couch. “Thanks for supper, Will. Joel wants you guys to come over next weekend. He said he’d make tamales.”
 
I don’t turn down tamales. “We’re there,” I say.
 
After Eddie and Gavin leave, Lake comes to the living room and sits on the couch, curling her legs up under her as she snuggles against me. I put my arm around her and pull her closer.
 
“I’m bummed,” she says. “I was hoping we’d at least get the same days this semester. We never get any alone time with all these butterflying kids running around.”
 
You would think with us living across the street from each other that we would have all the time in the world together. That’s not the case. Last semester she went to school Monday, Wednesday and Friday and I went all five days. Weekends we spent a lot of time doing homework, but mostly stayed busy with Kel and Caulder’s sports. When Julia passed away in September, that put even more on Lake’s plate. It’s been an adjustment, to say the least. The only place we seem to be lacking is actually getting quality alone time. It’s kind of awkward if the boys are at one house to just go to the other house to be alone. They almost always seem to follow us whenever we do.
 
“We’ll get through it,” I say. “We always do.”
 
She pulls my face toward hers and kisses me. I’ve been kissing her every day for over a year, and it somehow still gets better every time.
 
“I better go,” she finally says. “I have to get up early and go to the college to finish registration. I also need to make sure Kel’s not outside making out with Kiersten.”
 
We laugh about it now, but in a matter of years it’ll be our reality. We won’t even be twenty-five and we’ll be raising teenagers. It’s a scary thought.
 
“Hold on, before you leave…what are your plans tomorrow night?”
 
She rolls her eyes. “What kind of question is that? You’re my plan. You’re always my only plan.”
 
“Good. Eddie and Gavin are taking the boys. Meet me at seven?”
 
She perks up and smiles. “Are you asking me out on a real, live date?”
 
I nod my head.
 
“Well, you suck at it, you know. You always have. Sometimes girls like to be asked and not told.”
 
She’s trying to play hard to get, which is pointless. I’ve already got her…but I play her game anyway. I kneel down on the floor in front of her and look into her eyes. “Lake, will you do me the honor of accompanying me on a date tomorrow night? ”
 
She leans back into the couch and looks away. “I don’t know, I’m sort of busy,” she says. “I’ll check my schedule and let you know.” She tries to look put out, but a smile breaks out on her face. She leans forward and hugs me, but I lose my balance and we end up in the floor. I roll her onto her back and she stares up at me and laughs. “Fine. Pick me up at seven.”
 
I brush her hair out of her eyes and run my finger along the edge of her face. “I love you, Lake.”
 
“Say it again,” she says.
 
I kiss her forehead and repeat what I said. “I love you, Lake.”
 
“One more time.”
 
“I.” I kiss her lips. “And love.” I kiss them again. “And you.”
 
“I love you, too.”

"Sangat halus, kami memiliki rencana untuk menonton film tetap. Jam berapa? Berapa lama Apakah Anda ingin kami untuk menjaga mereka?" "Tidak peduli. Kami tidak akan di mana saja. Aku hanya perlu beberapa jam sendirian dengan danau. Ada sesuatu yang perlu untuk memberinya." "Oh... Saya melihat,"katanya. "Hanya teks saya ketika Anda melalui 'memberi kepadanya', dan kami akan membawa anak-anak rumah." Aku menggelengkan kepala di asumsi dan tertawa. Saya suka Gavin. Apa yang aku benci, namun, adalah kenyataan bahwa segala sesuatu yang terjadi antara saya dan danau, dan ia dan Eddie... kita semua tampaknya tahu tentang. Itulah kekurangannya berpacaran dengan teman-teman yang terbaik... ada ada rahasia. "Mari kita pergi, sayang." Eddie mengatakan seperti ia menarik Gavin dari sofa. "Terima kasih untuk makan malam, akan. Joel ingin kalian untuk datang akhir pekan depan. Dia mengatakan dia akan membuat tamale." Aku tidak menolak tamale. "Kita berada di sana," kataku. Setelah Eddie dan Gavin meninggalkan, Danau datang ke ruang dan duduk di sofa, meringkuk kakinya di bawah dia sebagai dia snuggles terhadap saya. Aku meletakkan lenganku di sekelilingnya dan menarik dia lebih dekat. "Aku sedang kacau," katanya. "Aku berharap kita akan setidaknya sama hari semester ini. Kami tidak pernah mendapatkan waktu sendirian dengan semua butterflying anak-anak ini berkeliaran." Anda akan berpikir dengan kita yang tinggal di seberang jalan dari satu sama lain bahwa kami akan memiliki semua waktu di dunia bersama-sama. Itu tidak terjadi. Semester terakhir dia pergi ke sekolah hari Senin, Rabu dan Jumat dan aku pergi semua lima hari. Akhir pekan kami menghabiskan banyak waktu melakukan pekerjaan rumah, tetapi sebagian besar tetap sibuk dengan olahraga Kel dan Caulder's. Ketika Julia meninggal pada bulan September, yang menempatkan lebih banyak di piring danau. Sudah penyesuaian, untuk sedikitnya. Satu-satunya tempat yang kita tampaknya kurang adalah benar-benar mendapatkan waktu sendirian berkualitas. Ini jenis aneh jika anak-anak di satu rumah hanya pergi ke rumah yang lain sendirian. Mereka hampir selalu tampak untuk mengikuti kami setiap kali kita melakukan. "Kita akan mendapatkan melalui itu," kataku. "Kita selalu lakukan." Dia menarik wajahku terhadap miliknya dan ciuman saya. Saya sudah telah mencium setiap hari selama lebih dari setahun, dan entah bagaimana masih mendapat lebih baik setiap kali. "Aku lebih baik pergi," dia akhirnya mengatakan. "Aku harus bangun pagi-pagi dan pergi ke college untuk menyelesaikan pendaftaran. Saya juga perlu memastikan Kel kan gak luar membuat keluar dengan Kiersten. " Kami tertawa tentang hal itu sekarang, tapi dalam beberapa tahun itu akan realitas kita. Kita bahkan tidak akan dua puluh lima dan kami akan meningkatkan remaja. Ini adalah suatu pemikiran yang menakutkan. "Bertahan, sebelum Anda meninggalkan... apa yang rencana Anda besok malam?" Dia gulungan matanya. "Apa jenis pertanyaan apakah itu? Kau rencana saya. Kau selalu rencana hanya saya." "Baik. Eddie dan Gavin mengambil anak-anak. Temui aku di tujuh?" She perks up and smiles. “Are you asking me out on a real, live date?” I nod my head. “Well, you suck at it, you know. You always have. Sometimes girls like to be asked and not told.” She’s trying to play hard to get, which is pointless. I’ve already got her…but I play her game anyway.
