He was about to lift me up and slide me onto him when he stopped. “Shit! Condom!”
I let out a laugh as he slid me down his body. He turned to go get one, and then he stopped. He glanced back to me, and I was about to say something when he put his hand on my mouth again. My eyes widened, and he shook his head.
“Truck. A truck is coming!”
I pushed his hand away. “Oh my God!” I yelled.
We frantically began searching for our clothes.
Where in the heck is my bra? The car! It’s by the car!
As I took off toward the car, Garrett jumped in front of me, and we ran right into each other. He started running in circles, and I couldn’t help but start laughing. I found my bra and attempted to put it on. Garrett was now dressed in his pants and shirt, and he was helping me get my skirt on.
“It’s getting closer, Garrett!” I said.
He picked up my garter and hose. We both looked each other in the eyes, and the next thing I knew, he was shoving them down his pants. Garrett spun around, and then he grabbed my hand and pulled me over to the quilt. He began spreading it out, and then he pushed me down on it.
“What are you doing?” I asked as I tried to sit back up.
“Trust me! Lie back down and just look up at the sky.” Garrett lay down next to me and then said, “Shit! The condoms!”
He jumped up and kicked a bunch of dirt over them. Then, he sat down next to me right as the truck came around the bend. When I turned and looked at it, I noticed it was Mr. Bauer’s truck, and sitting in the front seat was—
Oh no, my father.
Garrett grabbed my hand. “I’m glad we had last night.”
I couldn’t help but let out a giggle as I sat up and waited for what was about to happen.
When Mr. Bauer got out of the truck, he immediately looked at Garrett.
“If I die in the next two minutes, always remember, I love you.”
I swallowed hard when my father got out of the truck. He looked at me and then Garrett.
I turned to Garrett and smiled. “Same goes for me.”
I reached down and grabbed Emma’s hand as I watched David and Dr. Birk walk up to us.
“Emma, Garrett, are you enjoying the morning?” David asked as he looked at me.
He knows.
Dr. Birk walked up and looked at Emma. “Emma, Mrs. Mathews said you and Garrett left earlier this morning to watch the sun rise. Why in the world are you doing this?”
My mouth about dropped to the ground, and Emma squeezed my hand. I quickly looked at David, who winked at me.
Oh God, my mother knows Emma and I had sex. Dr. Birk killing me would be better than facing my mother right now.
“Daddy, I don’t expect you to understand, but I can’t be away from Garrett any longer. I gave school a try, and I’m not going back. I’m staying here with Garrett.”
My heart started pounding as Dr. Birk slowly looked at me.
He nodded his head and turned to David. “Do you want to start, or should I?”
I stood up and stepped forward and cleared my throat. “Dr. Birk, before you begin, may I please say something?”
Emma’s father turned and looked at me. “Yes, Garrett, you may.”
