Well, I hadn’t planned on meeting Kyle’s parents. Ever, really. I mean, I knew who they were because everyone here knew everyone else’s parents, but this was a completely different situation. I swore they could hear my pounding heart when they called out to Kyle and she said she was in the living room.

They both came around the corner at the same and weren’t surprised to see someone else in the living room with her.

“Oh, hello,” her mom said. Her parents were young and Kyle definitely resembled her dad more than her mom, who was willowy and blonde. Kyle’s dad had her hair and was a little shorter than his wife.

“Mom, Dad, this is Stella. She’s my partner for that English project and we were just finalizing our oral presentation,” Kyle said and I almost choked on air when she said the world “oral.” There wasn’t anything she could say that would not make me think of sex.

“Oh, how nice,” her mom said, beaming and coming over to shake my hand. I shook her father’s as well. Guess he was the quiet one.

“Yeah, well, I should probably go. My dad wants me home for dinner.” It wouldn’t hurt to start laying groundwork to show them that I was a good influence.

“Of course, of course,” Kyle’s mom said before Kyle walked me to the door. I wanted to kiss her more than I wanted to take another breath, but that definitely wasn’t going to happen.

“Oh, hey, do you have that book for me?” Kyle said, her hand on the doorknob. Her parents hovered a discreet distance away. Kyle gave me a look that they couldn’t see.

“Yeah, it’s in my car,” I said, understanding what she was saying.

“Cool, I’ll just come get it,” she said, loudly and we both headed out the door.

“I wasn’t going to let you leave without kissing you,” Kyle said as we walked toward my car.

“My parents are totally watching right now, but . . .” she said, trailing off and jerking her chin at a particularly thick and high bush that happened to be right next to my car and blocked us from view of the house.

“Come here,” I said, grabbing the hem of her shirt and pulling her to me. She stumbled and nearly fell.

“I got you,” I said and she smiled before our mouths touched.

“Thanks, babe,” she said and I got that little thrill.

“Anytime,” I said as she left little short kisses on my lips, like she couldn’t stop.

“I’ll see you on Monday. Text me,” she said, stepping away from me, still holding my hand. I tugged to make her stop.

“Wait! If you go back in there without a book, they’re going to be suspicious.” Her eyes went wide.

“Shit, you’re right.”

“Give me a second.” One of the upsides of having a father who was obsessed with literature was that you never wanted for reading material. I always had a few paperbacks in my car, just in case I got stuck somewhere.

I looked through my backseat and found a copy of War and Peace.
