little, I just got this t-shirt
on. I didn’t know we were coming here.”
    He pulled his pullover off handing
it to me in an instant, which left him in just his
t-shirt.
    “ No more questions for me,
huh?”
    I had tons of questions, but with
the answer from the last, I was afraid to ask anymore.
    “ I’m not sure what to ask you, you
seem so close to the vest on certain things.”
    “ Depends on who is asking, but ask
me anything I’ll be honest with you. You are honest with
me.”
    “ How do you know I am?”
    “ I know.”
    “ You know, one can never know
everything.”
    “ What if I was to say I could?” he
asked me, leaning back on the blanket.
    I stared at his shadowy figure
with curiosity at his strange comment.
    “ If you said you could, I would
tell you to play the lotto for me,” I laughed.
    “ That’s not what you would want to
know.”
    “ I really don’t know what I would
want to know.” I never had to ponder it, but now that I was, I
didn’t know what one person would want to know. Knowing some things
could ruin your life.
    “ You think of
anything?”
    “ I don’t think it’s worth knowing.
And I think you’re being a little strange,” I told him, lying back.
I stared up at the stars, hundreds of them sparkled
back.
    “ Yeah, yeah,” he said, lying back
as well; he tucked his hands behind his head.
    “ If you think you know everything,
tell me what I’m thinking right now,” I said as his hand brushed
mine. I didn’t flinch it was a calming touch.
    “ You’re thinking you’re having a
good time, and what it would be like to kiss the hot guy next to
you,” he laughed, amused with his witty comment.
    I rolled my eyes knowing I
was the only one who knew what I was honestly thinking.
    “ I am having a good time,” I said,
feeling a bit nervous. Now that he’d planted the idea in my head,
my body was starting to get rigid and awkward.
    “ I’m having a good time too;
honestly, I love your company,” he said.
    I felt his finger trail down my
arm. We sat in silence as his fingers repeated the motion. I closed
my eyes; the silence was so relaxing, the breeze blowing calmly
over us. I was starting to get overly tense. Ace grabbed my hand,
squeezing it. I shot up like a bat out of hell, it was too much, my
stomach had butterflies to the point I felt like I had restless leg
syndrome in all my extremities.
    “ What is wrong? You scared the
crap out of me. I thought someone was here,” he said, sitting up
himself.
    I’d probably ruined the mood. This
guy must think I am crazy, I thought to myself.
    “ No, I don’t,” Ace
said.
    I turned to look at him in alarm. I
knew I didn’t say that out loud.
    “ Huh?”
    “ I don’t think you’re crazy. I’m
honestly feeling pretty crazy myself right now. “Goosebumps
literally rose on my arms inside the hooded sweatshirt.
    “ Okay, now you’re freaking me
out,” I said, smacking him in the chest.
    “ What? Just call me intuitive. For
some reason, I just get you.” He touched my alarmed face. “I’m not
psychic. I just figured that would be what was going on in your
mind.”
    I was still speechless. It was a
strange thing. How often had I met anyone who knew what I was
thinking or feeling? That never was something I could say about
anyone I knew, even Nessa.
    “ I’m fine. It’s just …..It’s so
crazy, in a good way…I don’t know-“
    Ace’s face collided with mine in
the dark. I pulled back, startled, then realized what was going on.
He was trying to kiss me. I brought my face in, finding his lips.
He grabbed the back of my head in his hand, grabbing my hair as he
kissed me.
    I felt warm and tingly all over.
It was an amazing thing that was happening, and it was no feeling
like any other kiss I had experienced. I stopped thinking and just
concentrated on his mouth.
    We took a breather, he kissed my
cheek, bringing me down to the ground, and started again, running
his hand down the side of my face and softly kissed
