interrupted moment
John and Riley walk up to the front door of the Connor residence.
“You didn’t have to walk back with me.” John begins.
“What can I say, I’m a gentleman” Riley jokes, grinning at him.
John looks up, kind of over her shoulder, “Sorry that I couldn’t walk you to your house but…you know..”
“It’s okay John,” she takes a step toward him, grabs ahold of his hand. He leans down, puts his right hand on her left cheek and leans close to kiss her. They allow their kiss to increase in intensity until John pulls back as if remembering where they are. “Well…goodnight,” he says.
John enters the house and stands on the other side of the door. A smile plays across his lips.
He walks back into his room to find Cameron sitting on his bed, her face down, looking at her hands in her lap. He stops.
“…..you kissed Riley.” She says.
“Yeah, so” John retorts angrily, frustrated at his privacy being approached upon. “I would appreciate it if you didn’t…”
he pauses noticing she hasn’t moved yet. She waits in silence for a moment before saying softly, “How does it go?”
“What?” John asks.
“Kissing.”
“Oh, um…” he looks away, begins rifling through a dresser drawer. “You’ve never kissed..anyone..?”
“No.”
He couldn’t help the grin that escaped his lips then. He felt relief that she couldn’t see it.
“Will you show me?” she stands and moves toward him.
“I don’t think….I’m with Riley…” he stumbles for his words.
“Please” she says quietly. She is almost directly in front of him now. He looks deeply into her intense, wide eyes and all other thoughts escape him. He moves in and closes the remaining distance between them. She reaches down, takes his hand in hers just as Riley had done. He tilts his head down, his mind spinning and his face growing warmer...
Suddenly Cameron drops his hand and takes a step back. Sarah enters the room, “So, how was the da..?”....She stops, “What’s going on?” she enquires looking back and forth from Cameron’s erect stance and wide eyes to John....still slightly hunched, a somewhat bewildered expression on his face.
“We were just talking…about the big date.” Cameron says, walks past Sarah and exits. In the hallway, she pauses, the corners of her mouth turn up ever so slightly.
Back in the room Sarah stands with crossed arms observing John’s awkward stance. “So what does she know?”
John replies, “Who..what?..”
“Riley, what have you told her?”
“Nothing mom! She is a picture of cluelessness!.. I mean…. she is very understanding considering what I’m not telling her.
Silence
“and I’m not telling her…” he says, exasperated.
“Be sure to keep it that way,” Sarah turns and leaves.
John flops back on his bed and covers his face with his pillow. *sighs*

“Later dude,” Riley responds and she descends the stairs smiling.
