After a long, gruelling day at the mall, Elizabeth tossed the bags on the couch, then sat down beside them. She couldn’t believe Justin made her go to a mall and shop with him for nearly four hours.

        She heard Justin laughing from his spot leaning against the doorframe.

        She sat up a little. “What’s so funny?”

        “Nothing,” he replied, taking a seat next to her. “Nothing at all.” He smiled slowly.

        “Tell me,” she said. Elizabeth pulled at the collar of his gray sweatshirt as if she was going to strangle him.

        Justin continued to laugh, not being able to control it.

        She's so cute when she's angry, he thought with a smile.

        He grinned when she grabbed a hold of his shirt even tighter. “What you gonna do to me?”

        She thought for a moment then let go out his shirt. “I'm thinking. Why were you laughing anyways?”

        He reached over and put his arm around her waist and leaned back against the couch. “How cute you are,” he told her.

        “Seriously,” Elizabeth said, looking at him. “What's so funny?” Not that she didn’t like the compliments, but she wanted to know what he thought was so hilarious that he couldn’t stop laughing.

        Justin wanted to shut her up so badly. He kissed her, long and hard.

        She began to struggle, trying to push him away, but gave up knowing she wanted him so badly right now. She found herself wrapping her arms around his neck, kissing him back as passionately as he was kissing her.

        He sat up and pulled her onto his lap, not letting go of her. She was pulled up so close to him, that there was hardly any distance between the two of them. A few minutes later, she felt his tongue in her mouth. She pulled away, not hating it, actually liking it, but they were going a bit too fast.

        He was trying hard to get his breathing back to normal. That felt so incredible kissing her like that, and she seemed to really like it since she was smiling at him. He had been so into the kiss, he had just let it continue to get more passionate, but God it felt good. He wished it hadn't ended.

        Elizabeth on the other hand, was trying to sit up straight. She couldn't stop looking at what she thought was an adorable face.

        They both continued to stare at each other. Finally, Justin broke the silence.
       
        “What do you want to do tonight?”

        She stared at him as if he was crazy. “Tonight? It's only…”

         She glanced at her watch. “3:30.” She laughed, realizing how fast the time had past.

        They had spent the day at the mall, Justin claiming he needed new clothes for when he and the guys were leaving next week. Elizabeth was a little upset about him leaving but she didn't dread on the thought, she knew they would be together again.

        They spent all day at the mall, and she found it really annoying how he continually asked her to hold clothes that he had picked up off the racks. It had taken him four hours to finally get all that he wanted. He bought her lunch, apologizing for making her follow him around the mall all day.

        And now they were back at her place sitting on the couch after their little make out session, which could have turned into way more.

        “So what do you want to do tonight?” Justin asked again.

        She was still staring at him, she couldn't hear him. He waved his hand in front of her face to get her attention.

        She moved his hand away. “What?”

        He chuckled. “You really are something else.”

        “What's that supposed to mean?” she asked, getting up and putting her hands on her hips.

        “It's not an insult,” he said, standing up beside her. “I asked you what you wanted to do tonight and you were off in some other world.”

        “Oh, sorry. Just thinking, I guess.”

        “So, what do you want to do tonight?” he asked again.

        “Whatever you want to do.”

        “Did I wear you out?” he asked.

        She laughed and tapped his head with her hand. “You wish.”

         She started to walk away, and Justin followed her, so she didn't dare go into her bedroom. She walked out onto the patio when she saw someone out there. She saw him. The person that was at the bowling alley the day before.

        “Who are you?” she asked, taking a step closer to the man.

        The man was wearing dark sunglasses, dark jeans, and a tanned shirt. She couldn't see him hair because a hat was covering it.

        “That's for me to know and you to find out,” he said quietly. “But I'll give you a hint, you know me already.”

        Elizabeth couldn't recognize the voice, but figured he was using a disguised voice so she wouldn't know who he was right away.

        “Why don't you just tell me who you are?”

        “Because then it wouldn't be any fun for me then, would it?”

        He took a few steps closer to her, but then stepped away into a corner when Justin came out onto the porch.

        “What are you doing out here?” Justin put his arms around her waist, then he felt that she was shaking when he touched her trembling fingers. “What's wrong?”

        “Just chilly out,” she said. Fortunately, it was a little nippy out.

        “Then let's go inside.”

         Justin took her hand and led her back through the screen door. As they walked inside, Elizabeth kept her focus outside. She saw the figure given her a sly smile, then he disappeared.
