Chapter 26 - Skipping school
"Chasing the revolving door,
Wanting to stop but can't,
Going round and round in circles....."

"Right gang!" Charlie yells striding into the kitchen. He highfives then turns to face me. He see's Lucas and looks at the arm around my waist and sighs. I smile painfully and he smiles and nods back. He turns to Lucas and offers his hand for a shake. "Charlie, Kelly's friend"
"And Kelly's ex" Oliver adds. I suddenly choke out on my cup of tea and it sprays slightly before I swallow it and begin coughing. Everyone looks at me confused. "What's the matter Kelly? Just letting Lucas know so things won't get awkward later"
Oliver raises an eyebrow and I nod quickly going back to my drink. I take a large cup and it burns my throat but I don't care.
"Anyway, moving swiftly on" Charlie mutters. "Since Oliver is here how about an early start to the weekend?" He smiles happily as does Oliver. I know he has a crush on Charlie. He told me when I was dating him, it made things awkward for a while but then I settled into a rule of not kissing him in front of Oliver.
"An early start two days ahead of the weekend?" I say raising an eyebrow. Charlie turns and smiles at me.
"Hell, yeah. Grab your stuff guys we're going to the beach. Oliver will you call Micheal-"
"Already doing it" Oliver says lifting a finger up to shush Charlie and he dials the number and puts it to his ear. I smile at Lucas and jump up dumping my mug on the side and dragging him upstairs.
Luckily both Eric and my mother are totally asleep so we can make some noise. I drag Lucas to my room and close the door.

"...Till you can't touch the ground,
For all I wanted was one thing,
It wasn't very much,
I just needed more than one last touch"
******
"Can you go swimming on the beach?" I ask. "I mean with your wings and all" I look at them clear to my sight even though I know no one else can see them. Lucas smiles and pulls me into his arms. His outfit changes as he does and I notice mine does as well to a white bikini beneath a summers dress.
"I will be fine, Kelly. You should worry about me less" He says stroking back a strand of my hair. He smiles. "Like the outfit.... I hope the shoes are okay" I look down at my feet to see buckled sandles.
"Nice" I say smiling back at him. "You look good yourself" I gesture at the thin white top and black trunks with brown sandles.
"Thank you" He says smiling as he leans down and kisses me softly. Why can't I seem to stop wanting his kisses. It seems I'm chasing them as well.
