Chapter Nine

Molly

I hadn’t seen Brock since the night of the haunted train ride. It had been two days, twenty-two hours and thirty-six minutes…give or take. Not that I was counting. I do have to wonder what would have happened that night if Jake and Megan hadn’t pulled up when they did.

It was all so romantic that it had gone straight to my head. The fun we had at the pumpkin patch and tree farm, and then the moonlight and the rain, and then dancing in a parking lot of all things. I can’t believe he sang that song. He’s so talented. I love the way his voice sounds, even a-cappella. I also love Steven Tyler. He’s my absolute favorite. I know that I’m young and I hear it all the time, “Aero—who?” But come on, classic is classic and obviously Brock understands.

“Oh my God, Molly! I said this out loud to myself in an empty room. What the heck is wrong with me? I’m counting the hours since I saw this guy last. I’m humming, “Don’t want to miss a thing”, in my head, and I’m saying that he understands me. What happened to the girl who didn’t want a boyfriend?

We’re just hanging out. Yeah right, that’s why he was about to kiss me two days, twenty-two hours and thirty-six minutes ago, and I was going to let him. That would have moved this thing straight from “hanging out” stage to “soulmates”. Yes, I’m sure it would have been that good.

Snap out of it Molly! He’s hot, yes. He’s smart, yes. He’s talented, yes. He’s sweet, yes. Do you want a boyfriend who is going to take your heart when he finds out you’re sick, and run in the other direction as he stomps on it like the last one did? No!

He called me yesterday and told me what a great time he had the other night. I told him I had too, honestly. I can’t remember the last time I had that much fun. I told myself before he called that I just wasn’t going to put myself in that situation again, one where we’re close enough and alone enough to kiss. Then he said, “Hey, why don’t we watch a movie tomorrow night?”

And I said, “Sure that sounds great.” Way to cut him off Molly.

So now I’m getting ready for movie night, both in anticipation of the thrill of seeing his handsome face, and with anxiety that he’s going to want to finish that kiss. I’m going to stay strong this time, no matter how sweet his lips look. Megan is going to give me a ride over to his apartment, maybe her and Jake will hang out for a while and foil Brock’s kissing plans yet again.

“Molly, you ready?” It was Megan, sticking her head in the door.

“Yep,” I said. I grabbed my coat and on the way out I asked her, “Are you and Jake watching the movie with us tonight?”

“No. Jake wants to drive out to that car show he was telling us about.
