Nightfall

This was the moment. I was happy to be with Michael, my first boyfriend. And I was only 16 years old.
On a Saturday morning, I received a text message from him. 'Will u go 2 da movies wit me? @ 8:00pm?'
I replied yes.
It was 6:00 pm after I walked my terrier dog, Charlie and Hanged out with my best friend, Miranda. I took a shower and put on a clean jean, a lavender t-shirt, diamond earrings and black converse. I pushed my hair back.
I asked mom if I could have 20 bucks for the movie.
 "Sure!" she said. "But, be careful out there."
 "I will! Love you, mom!"
 "Love you too, Emily."
As I put my mini-jacket on, I hear the doorbell.
 "I'll get it!" mom yells.
I hear Michael come in, but I don't hear if he's in the living room with me, or not. As I turn around, I see him close up to me. I accidentally bump into him, as I turn around.
 "I'm sorry." I say.
 "It's okay.” he says smiling. "You look beautiful with your hair out."
 "Thank you." I say, blushing.
I say goodbye to my mom and Michael and I head for his car. This was apparently, our seventh date.
"Close your eyes." he tells me as soon as I buckle myself. "Okay, open your eyes!"
I open them and I see a dozen of red roses.
 "They're beautiful!"
 "Well, I wasn't sure what to get you, but instead I bought you these."
 "I'm sorry I didn't get you anything." I say in disappointment.
 "Well, you can get me something at the movies or at the carnival."
 "Were going to a carnival!"
 "Yup!"
I go up to his side and hug him and he hugs me back for a while. After that, we head to the movies.
When we get there, he doesn't tell me what movie we're going to see, so I'll have to wait and watch the movie. As the movie begins, he finally tells me.
 "We're watching the notebook."
 "I've read the book and since then, I was dying to see the movie."
 "Well, it has finally come true."
The movie begins to start and Michael and I are silent. Through the movie, Michael puts his arm on my shoulder. I look at him and he smiles. I lean my head on his shoulders and hold me up tight.
After the movie has finished, Michael and I head out and we get in the car. He drives to the carnival. He checks his watch and it's 9:50 p.m. The carnival closes at 12:00 am, so we have all the time we want. Michael buys the ticket and we head over to water - shotgun, game. He wins the first prize and he gets me a big, brown teddy bear. I was so happy, I kissed him on the lips, and he puts his arms around my waist and holds me tightly. We look at each other's eyes for a long moment.
 "This was a great day!" I say smiling.
 "I hoped you like it."
 "I love it! And also you!"
He kisses me on the cheek and we start making out. He lets go and says, "I love you, Emily!"
 "I love you too, Michael!"
 "Can you do me a favor?"
 "Yes."
 "Don't let me go. I want you, I love you, you are the light in my heart, and you have opened my mind and now that I'm with you, don't let me go. Don't forget the beautiful memories."
 "I won't. I love you also! You have opened my heart and my mind. Your beauty, your comforts and everything else, filled me up and I don't want to let you go."
I began to cry.
 "Hey... Hey... It's okay."
He wipes the tears off my face and his hands are on my cheeks. It's so warm. Then, he begins to kiss me.
Michael and I head over to a bowling game. I roll the ball and it's 20 points, again 100 points and again, 100 points. I win and I get a big, brown doggy for Michael.
Michael buys a cotton candy for the both of us. He rips apiece off and feeds me it to my mouth and I also do the same thing to him.
After we're done, we head to the car. Michael puts his doggy in the back seat and I also place my teddy bear next to his. And the roses are in between the doggy and the teddy bear. We buckle up and drive me up in front of my house.
 "Text me tomorrow." he said.
 "I will."
 "Don't forget your roses and your teddy bear."
 "I won't."
I don't leave out of the car and I begin to cry.
 "What's wrong?" he says worried.
 "I don't want to go home, I want to be with you."
 "I know you do, but we'll see each other in school on Monday."
 "That's too long."
 "Then text me or call me."
 "Okay."
 "I love you!"
 "I love you, too!"
I get my teddy bear and my roses. The lights are still on. I unbuckle my seat belt. I kiss Michael on the cheek. He puts both his arms on both of my shoulders. He makes out with me.
He pulls away and says,” Don’t forget this night. Our night. And don't forget the kisses."
 "And don't forget about me."
 "I won't."
 "Goodnight."
 "Goodnight, baby."
We come closer and we give each other a kiss on the lips and then we hug.
I unlock the door, head out and close it. I walk up to my porch and I hear Michael drive away. I unlock the door. I don't even bother waking up my mom, since she's already sleeping on the couch. I turn off the light in the kitchen and walk up the stairs to my room. Charlie is already asleep on my bed and I lay my bear on my seat next to the computer and place my roses in a flowerpot. I fill it up with water. I take off my clothes, fold it on my bureau and put on my pajamas. I turn off the light, get on my bed, put the covers on myself and fall asleep. This was the best night.
