The Last Dance

…"I need to use the bathroom," I started going towards the door but he asked me to use his. His bathroom looked like one from the movies. The shower, the tub, and the interior were so beautiful and as much as I wanted to admire it, I had to spend more time with him and less time in the bathroom. 

"I counted eight bottles of sham– hey, don't read that." 

But it was too late, Lucas had already read my silly must-do list. It was where I wrote things that I needed to do before I left high school.

There might be some silly things on the list so I didn't want him to see it. He held it over my head and read it out loud "Take a road trip" 

"Stop. Give it to me," I said but he easily dodged me.

"Start exercising. No, no exercise Brittany. I like you like this." 

I moved to take the book from him but he was faster 

"Wait. Kiss Charles. Who the fuck is Charles?"
