“Ihad a great time tonight.” JerRic smiled.

“Me too.” I grinned.

“I especially liked the Ferris Wheel.” JerRic readjusted himself so he was facing me.

“I bet you did.” I rolled my eyes.

“Did you like the Ferris Wheel?” JerRic ignored my comment.

“Yeah.” I admitted.

JerRic's hand touched my cheek.

“Are you trying to repeat the Ferris Wheel?” I flashed him a curious smile.

JerRic grinned and nodded. Our lips met each other. A warm flow of electricity filled the car. It was so unexpected. I pulled away from him.

“Chemistry.” He grinned.

I laughed. “See you Monday.”

“The offer to marry me still stands.” JerRic flashed me a teasing smile.

I laughed as I got out of the car. “You're silly, Jer.”

JerRic laughed.

I touched the doorknob. It was unlocked. I opened it and waved. JerRic waved back, and I locked the door behind me.

“How was it?” Mom called from the Living Room.

I collapsed beside of her. “Good, actually.” I smiled. “I kissed JerRic. I think we're dating.”

“That's the boy that drops you off sometimes, right?” Mom smiled.

“Yeah.” I nodded, trying not to smile. “I took some pictures.” I pulled out my phone and flipped through them.

There was a picture of Anna and Denver. There was a few of me and Anna. And then there were several of me and JerRic. He was smiling in some, laughing in others, and in a few he was making faces.

“Wait.” Mom stopped me.

I went back a picture. JerRic was looking at me while I was staring at the camera. He looked at me like that often, but in this picture my breath caught.

“That boy looks like he is in love.” Mom put her arm around me.

“It's too soon to be love.” I shook my head.

“Pictures are worth a thousand words.” Mom pointed at the screen.
