Taylor and Ali stood under the missel toe holding each other slow dancing. It was Chrsitmas Eve night at the Hanson household. After the Invitational they gathered their prizes and talked with several magazines. Garrison gave them each Gift Certificates to the best Skating store in town and let them keep all the gear. They got home and showered and then they had a big dinner with the Hanson's. Everyone went to the Light show in the park but Taylor and Ali said they were too tired and got them to let them stay home. Taylor had his arms around Ali's waist and her arms were around his neck with her head on his shoulder. Ali wore a hunter green sleeveless tube dress with a slit up the back. Her hair was down and styled beautifully. Taylor wore a pair of nice black pants and a black long sleeve shirt. Taylor hair was also down. They rocked back and forth slowly to the song Eric Clapton's, Wonderful Tonight. Taylor pulled Ali more closely to his body. She gladly leaned on as he sang along with the song into her ear. Ali felt so safe in Taylor's arms that she didn't want to leave. Holding Ali gave Taylor all the comfort in the world. How could he have found such a wonderful girl? The song slowly went on and on to the two of them. Ali suddenly felt it wasn't right for her to leave in two days. She didn't want to return to the sad world in which she belonged to at her real home. Back to the awful world her dad did to her. Slowly she brought her head up so she was looking in Tay's eyes. "I don't want to leave you." Ali slowly whispered to him. He smiled. "You never will." He said back. Ali drifted into a sea of thoughts again but before she could even think straight Taylor placed his lips against hers. He deepened the kiss by opening his mouth and letting his tongue roam. Ali gladly let him do so as she pulled him more and more into her. Taylor let his hands slide up and down her back with ease. He slowly parted their lips and began to kiss the side of Ali's neck. The little pecks sent chills down Ali's spine. Taylor kissed across her collar bone before stopping. He moved his lips back to hers. The two held eachother close. They kissed deeply until Ali decided she didn't want to go anyfurther. She parted their lips and moved her head back on Tay's shoulder slightly letting out a sigh. Taylor sensed Ali wasn't ready for much more than that and was greatful too. Wonderful Tonight had phased out a long time ago and the song 2 become 1 was on. The two moved together for along time until they heard some noise from the kitchen. The two let go of each other as Walker entered the room. He had the most disapprooving look on his face Ali had ever seen. His face was stern and had the look of anger all over it. "I think I'll be leaving now." Ali said looking at Tay. He nodded in agreement and walked her to the door. She gave him a quick hug and a kiss on the cheek. "Meet me in the treehouse later." She whispered in his ear. She walked out the door and Taylor shut it. He slowly walked forward and stopped by the couch seperating him from his father. "So dad, how long have you been home?" Taylor asked. "Long enough." Walker said. Taylor instantly knew his dad had seen everything. "Listen Dad, I'm real sor-" "You are sorry I know." Walker answered sarcastisly. "I come home early because my son said he was so tired from wining the biggest National Tournement to find him making out with a girl he's known for what....Six Days!" Walker now had his hands in the air and Taylor kept quiet. Well for awhile anyways. "Nothing happened, Dad." Taylor answered trying to explain the scene. "But what if I hadn't come home? Would you still be making out or going further than that?!" Walker had obviously become furious wiith his sons actions. "Dad, are you asking if we would've had sex?" Taylor couldn't believe his father would ask such a question. "Yes!" Walker was almost yelling now. "Dad, Ali and I are only 14 years old. I wouldn't even dream of having sex until I was ready and trust me I'm not." Walker seamed to relax a little by knowing his son wasn't ready for such a thing. But he was still mad at the fact that he had come home to see what he had saw. "Even though you aren't ready what if Ali pushed you into it." Taylor stopped him. "How dare you say something like that!" Now Taylor was yelling. "Ali would never make me do something I didn't want to do just like I would never make her do something she wouldn't want to do!" Walker had an arguement to that. "How do you know?! You've known her for Six Days!" Taylor had had enough. He stormed out of the room and up the stairs. "Don't you leave in the middle of our conversation! I'm not done." Taylor stopped at the top of the stairs. "Well I'm done listening to you." He ran down the hall and slamed the bedroom door shut behind him. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ I laid down in the treehouse in the Hanson yard. The treehouse was very crooked and had real walls and cieling. I was laying on a blanket I had brought out. I had on a pair of blue jeans with a sweatshirt. It was absolutly freezing out so I was wrapped up in the blanket. My hair was down still styled. I heard the whole fight with Taylor and his dad. I heard the feet hitting the wet ground and then I could hear the door opening to the small opening in a floor of the treehouse. I sat up to see Taylor climbing in. He scooted over to me and leaned against the wall. I laid my head in his lap as he began to run his fingers through my hair. He was now dressed in a baggy pair of jeans and a long sleeve shirt. I sat up and faced him taking his hands in mine. "I'm real sorry about all that." He whispered looking to the floor. "Hey, we never expected your dad to come home." I said trying to help him wash away the guilt. He looked in my eyes seriously. "Ali, my dad thought that if he hadn't come home when he did we would have had sex." He talked just above a whisper and this time I looked to the ground ashamed. "I don't know about you but I'm so not ready for sex. I love you but we are only 14. Do you see what I mean?" I asked. Taylor pulled me into his lap and warpped me in a hug. "I'm glad we feel the same way." He whispered into my ear. We held eachother for a longtime that night until we eventually fell asleep holding eachother with our arms wrapped around each other wrapped in the blanket . ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Walker hessitantly opened the hatch to the treehouse door. Kirsten had called minutes ago asking if Ali was over there. Walker didn't know if she was but had a good idea that she was. It was already 11:32p.m. only an hour after his argument with Taylor. He told Kirsten she was fast asleep and they would send her home in the morning. As he opened the door he heard the soft breathing of both kids laying on the floor. The found the two with arms wrapped around eachother under a blanket. He looked at the two of them for quite some time before deciding that if he argued with Taylor anymore it wouldn't matter. Taylor obviously was in love and who was he to ruin it. He closed the hatch and walked back to the house remembering to appologize to Tay later. 7:02 a.m. I awoke the next morning with my head on Taylor's chect that was rising and falling from breathing. I sat up and shook Taylor's arm to wake him up. It didn't seem to have any effect on him so I placed a small kiss on his lips and boy did he wake up. After I parted he slowly stretched and sat upright. He looked to his watch as I stood up to stretch. "Man, it's so early." He said. I looked out the small hole provided that was suppose to be a window to see Walker sitting in the lounge chair sound asleep. "It looks like your dad knew you left last night." I said pointing to Walker. Taylor walked over and looked out. Walker was leaned back all the way covered in a blanket with last night's clothes on. Just then Walker began to wake up and stretch. He sat up and looked out the window. I grabbed Taylor's arm pulling him below the window. "Why did you do that?" He asked while we were ducking. "Well do you want your dad to know that we spent the whole night together?! Taylor, you know what he'll assume." Taylor looked at me seriously and nodded in agreement to the fact that his dad would probaly think they had sex. "Ali, I don't care what my dad thinks we did. We didn't do anything wrong or that we regret doing." Back Home Chapter 17
