Chapter25
Once everyone was done with the threats Harley and I took off to the movies. We watched the new Marvel movies and ate way too much junk food. We had snuck in Maccas to eat for dinner as well as getting popcorn, lollies and chips. We talked and laughed and had a great time. Well, I did anyway. On the way back to the Addison we stopped to get some ice cream cause we hadn't had enough junk already. "I have had such a good time, thanks so much Harley. This date has been amazing" I said to Harley as we walked back to the Addison while eating our ice cream. "I had a good time too. Tilly, you are amazing" Harley said before pulling me towards him. Our chests were touching and I looked up into Harley's eyes and he was looking into my eyes watching me. I licked my lips and stood on my tippy toes leaning in towards Harley's lips. Harley stood watching me before leaning a little forward and connecting our lips.
Holy shit my first kiss what the hell do I do? I have never kissed anyone before. I moulded my lips to Harley and let him take the lead. I hoped I was doing this right. Harley wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me even closer to him while we continued the kiss. We both pulled away a little out of breath and I smiled. Harley leaned in and pecked my lips again before putting his arm around my waist and walking towards the Addison again. Was the kiss that bad? He didn't say anything to me and I didn't know if I should say something. I turned to look at Harley, he was already looking at me before he pulled me into another mind-blowing kiss.
Kissing is addictive and I found myself enjoying this kiss better than our first kiss. Both Harley and my phone buzzed, it was a text from Levi telling us we had 5 minutes till curfew and doors would be locked. We began to run towards the Addison laughing as we went. We made it with 2 minutes to spare and Harley walked me to my door. We shared another kiss before we said good night and I walked into my room and Harley went to his. I couldn't wipe the smile off my face. I had enjoyed my first-ever date and enjoyed the kissing. It was bittersweet though, I wish I had Mum here to talk to me about how great my date was. I went to the bathroom and took my make-up off before getting ready for bed. Just as I slipped into bed my phone buzzed and it was the photos from Bryson along with a text saying he hoped I enjoyed my date and that I truly looked beautiful.
Tomorrow is Bryson's birthday BBQ and he managed to convince me to come along. In the last two weeks, Bryson and I have spent a lot of time together. We would meet at the gym and then usually hang out for a bit. We would go to the beach or grab lunch, we would hang out at one of his mate's places or go to get coffee. He was on uni break and I had nothing else to do until I started uni.
Harley and I had made it official we were boyfriend and girlfriend. We had been out on several dates including going to the Chinese Gardens, on a ferry and to Luna Park. We had dinner together every night and then would chill in one of our rooms. Sometimes our mates would join us and then sometimes it was just Harley and me and we would spend a few hours making out. I also had dinner with Aunty Amelia and Uncle Mark. We met at the shopping centre and then Aunty Amelia insisted we go shopping and brought me a whole lot of underwear much to Uncle Mark and Bryson's horror and a box of condoms. To say it was awkward was an understatement. She was just like my mum and it was hard. I didn't want her to replace my mum but I also did want someone to turn to like a mother figure.
The sessions with my family and the family therapist increased to twice a week and we dropped the calls because they were mostly spent in silence. At the therapy sessions at least there was talking. It was awkward as hell especially when I went into detail about the beatings in juvie and what I did to survive. They didn't believe that I had broken a chick's wrist and that I had been stabbed several times. It wasn't knives that were used, it was anything that could be made pointy or even blades that had been taken out of a razor.
