The ride back to my house was silent, but it was a comfortable silence. "Thanks for the ride" I said to him. Funny thing is, I didn't know his name yet. "Anytime beautiful" He replied. I smiled as I put my hand on the door handle getting ready to get out, but suddenly he stopped me by putting his hand on top of mine. "Wait. I didn't get your name" He said quickly. "It's Becky" I told him. "Beautiful name. I'm Carter. Well I'll see you around. Hopefully" he smiled.
But before I said anything back, I decided to take out a sticky note and pen that I keep in my coat pocket and I wrote my number on it. I hand handed it to him before getting out of the car.
"I hope so. Bye Carter. And thanks again for the ride" I said waving as I got out of his car. "You're welcome pretty lady" I smiled at that as I walked up to the front door. I took one last glance behind me just to see Carter waving goodbye and pulling out of the driveway. And in two seconds, he was gone. I turned back to the door and opened it. Only to be lectured by my dear loving parents.
Here we go again...
