Subject: David and Kayden 4

				Chapter Four
	 After the bell rang I rushed to pack up my stuff and headed to
meet David at the flag pole. But as I was heading out of the classroom door
someone grabbed me by the shoulder and pulled me back. It was David.
	"Hey Kayden, I was called out of class early to talk to the
principal so I decided to meet you at your class."
	"Why were you called to the office?" I asked
	"I'll tell you when we get to my place, I don't want to draw
attention to myself in this crowded hallway." He said as we walked down the
hall to the front of the school.
	While walking down the sidewalk to his house, a car passed by and
some of the passengers yelled 'Faggots!'  I looked at David and saw that he
was turning red as I felt my own face start to flush and I looked down at
my feet as we were walking left right left right we were in step with each
other without even knowing it. My heart was beating so fast and my palms
were sweating like mad. Why was I so nervous?
	"Why are you so nervous?" he asked right out of the blue after a
long awkward silence.
	"Huh! I'm not nervous, who said I was nervous?" I said faster than
I meant to.
	"Kayden your nervous I can sense it and there is absolutely nothing
to be nervous about." He said calmly. "If any one is nervous it should be
me."
	I started to say something but thought better of it. As we were
walking he finally gestured that we were in front of his house.
	"Here we are... home sweet home." 'was that a little bit of sadness
in his eyes?' I thought.
	We went in and he led me through a hall with pictures of him and
his parents at various stages in his life but one picture caught my eye it
was of him at about 10 on a stage with a microphone singing his heart out.
	"Are you coming in or not?" he asked jokingly
	I walked into the room that I presumed was his and sat down on the
bed him in his desk chair. He closed his eyes and I thought he was about to
cry but he took a deep breath and sighed deeply and opened his beautiful
eyes.  "Do you want anything to drink?" he asked finally. "Um we have OJ,
Coke, and Sprite."
    "Uh yeah a Sprite would be great!"
    "Okay, I'll be right back" And he left.
    When he was gone I started to look around his room which looked like a
regular teenage guys room except one thing there were no posters of girls
in bikinis just male sports figures. He had a tall shelf full of books, so
I started looking at all the different titles, as I was looking through
them one caught my eye "Awesome Quotes by Cool People!" I kind of paged
through the book and saw that he had circled a few and wrote little notes
by them. The first one that he circled was "A journey of a thousand miles
starts under ones feet." Under it he had written 'maybe the things I am
experiencing are part of a journey, I am meant to feel this way even if it
is confusing.' I turned a few pages until one caught my eye with notes
beside it "If you risk nothing, than you risk everything." This one was
said by Geena Davis. And by this one he wrote something that told me he has
had more than one experience dreaming about me. He wrote 'maybe I should
risk a lot and tell Kayden how I feel about him I mean if he doesn't feel
the same way and hates me for what I feel, then I would be missing out on a
great friendship. But if he does feel the same way... well lets just say I
won't be disappointed.
    "Ahem, I could not find the sprite so I brought you a coke instead, is
that okay?"
    "What? Oh yeah that's cool" I said. 'Gosh he actually made me jump! I
wonder how long he's been standing there. I hope I'm not blushing' I
thought as he handed me the can of coke. When I went to grab it our fingers
brushed together and I felt the warmth of his hand against mine. I felt a
weird feeling coming from him, It was nervousness mixed with excitement
'wonder what that's about'.
