Not even ten minutes later I sprung back up into a sitting position and began to think about him again. He was in my dreams almost every night. I hated him and wished he would finally go away. I felt Gaven's hand grab my shoulder and pull me down, forcing me back up against his shoulder and neck. "Lean on me babe!" Either he knew I was cold, or he was cold. He does this alot. I smiled and thought about our old school and how they had these stupid pep rallies outside in forty degree weather. The last one Gaven and I went to it was twenty degrees outside. After my eyes started to water and my nose got red he shoved his forehead into the side of mine. "What's wrong?" "I'm cold..." "Why?" "Because it's fucking cold!" The sound of kids cheering for the football team made me sick. It was too loud.

"Lean on me babe. Lean on me." I tilted my neck slightly so it was just about two inches away from his shoulder. "Babe! Lean more, you're not leaning on me yet! Babe!" I finally rolled my eyes and bent my head into his shoulder until I was sure my neck would snap. There wasn't enough room on the bleachers to do much anything. "Why don't you just have her sit in your lap." James said from the other side of Gaven. "Because dude, we'd get in trouble." "So?" "I don't want to be kicked off the football team man!" James rolled his eyes and smacked in Gaven's direction. I would have laughed, but my face was so cold I couldn't move a muscle in it. The crowd grew louder and everyone stood up. Through the cracks of the people I could see someone on the bleachers handing out ice cream.

Ice cream? On a twenty degree day? Gaven's face lit up as he reached his hand in the air. "Why would you want one of those when you're half freezing to death?" I asked him. "Because I love ice cream." I smiled at him and then placed my head back on his shoulder. I was looking down, trying to keep the cold off my face. I could feel and half way see Gaven moving his head to mine, he placed his forehead on the edge of mine and kissed the top of my forehead. I smiled without raising my head and then snuggled closer to him.
