Our Last Summer

Chapter Twenty Three

Lena

My life is a dream. I'm in California living in a beautiful beach house. I'm best friends with the most amazing person, I kissed the most amazing boy I've ever met. And everybody else is just as amazing.

"Yeah, and then he told me he was into choking which you know I-" penny says I screw my eyes up at the thought of Noah choking penny out in bed and I just can't

"I'm sorry, you known the basics" she says and I smile

"I'm happy for you penny, I really am. And I do know the basics I heard it last night" I said and she giggles at the thought

"Sorry about that too" she says and I laugh with her

"Now it's your turn. What the fuck. You and Nathan!? I didn't know that was happening." She says and now it's my turn to giggle at the thought of her seeing me and Nathan kissing "when" she demands

"Just a few minutes ago, outside in the rain" I say and she groans and falls back onto the bed

"That's so romantic, you guys are going to get married and have cute little kids" she says I roll my eyes at her crazy ideas.

"So what happened I want the details" she says

"Well he asked me to dance with him, in the rain I did, and it just...happened" I say not telling the whole story, that is something me and Nathan know, nobody else

She sighs and rolls over to me"that's so romantic, I love this for you" she said and I nod

"It's the dream" I say remembering Nathan's hands on my waist in my hair on my face his lips on mine...his tung in my mouth... I shake away the thought

"Anyways, I'm glad we can catch up, but you know I have a bed to go warm" she says standing up I smile

"Me too" I whisper and is smiles open mouthed at me

"Do you think he...?" She asks and I know what she's asking, if I'll trust him to have sex with me. If I trust him enough to make me feel something I haven't been able to feel in years

"I think so" I say smiling she smiles huge and hugs me hard

"I love you" she whispers in my ear, "I love you" I say back to her as we part ways in the hall I knock on his door lightly and then slip in

Nathan is laying on his bed stomach down and he's asleep his right hand is holding his phone, I pull it out of his grasp to put it on the night stand when I see there is a call on screen and the caller is his sister I put the phone to my ear

"Hello?" I whisper seeing if she's still on the other line

"Nathan? What happened to your voice. You sound 13 again" she says I smile, I like this girl

"No this is Lena Nathan is asleep" I say the girl on the other end sucks in a breath

"Oh, we'll hi" she says I smile

"Hi, sorry this seems snoopy. I was just going to put his phone on the nightstand and I saw you were in the line and I wanted to see-" I start explaining myself but she cuts me off

"Don't even worry about it, I understand." She says I smile again my anxiety faltering

"Oh, ok." I say I can hear her chuckle

"My brother talks about you a lot he likes you a lot" she says my heart warms at that as I look down at Nathan

"I like him a lot" I say back to her

"Good, don't break his heart." She says

"I don't plan on it" I reply I can almost feel her smile and warmth
