unbuttoned.
    “No! I mean, yes, I mean, its fine. I don’t know what I imagined. I liked it.”
    “Then what?
    There’s no way I could tell him that I was thinking about Josh and all the times we made out on my ugly orange couch. Or when I lost my virginity to him in the river. Why was I thinking about Josh when Andrew was standing naked in front of me? Andrew, the brown eyed, mysterious, tall-dark-and-handsome boy who actually wanted only me.
    “I don’t know?” I mumbled, looking down at my half-dressed self.
    “Jenna, hey.” Andrew had his jeans on now and took a step toward me and lifts my chin so my eyes meet his. “We don’t ever have to do something you don’t want to do. No pressure, okay? I want to be with you, and have for a while now. I want us to take what we have to the next level.” He popped my shirt on over my head and kissed my nose as I wiggled my arms through the arm holes.
    I felt more at ease once he’d said that. I could tell he was disappointed, but he respected me and us as a couple. I turned away from him and bent over to pick up the box we’d spilled. I scooped up the decorations and began to sift through them again. Andrew joined me, once he’d completely dressed himself.
    “Well, since you went through the trouble of buying all these decorations, we might as well put them all up,” I said.
    Andrew did his famous half smile that I fell in love with the first time I saw him. I smiled weakly back at him and got to work hanging up gauzy spider webs and orange and black streamers from the ceiling. We worked in silence for the next thirty minutes, then flopped on the leather sofa to admire our handy work.
    “Good job,” Andrew said.
    “It kind of looks like a bad middle school attempt at Halloween.”
    “Shut up,” he said defensively. “It does not.”
    “It kind of does.” I turned to face him and tell him honestly that his decorations sucked.
    “Yeah, you’re right.” He glanced around the room at the pathetic array of decorations. “At least I can blame you.” He laughed.
    “What? No way.” I pushed him playfully.
    “Yes way.” He pushed me back and I fell back dramatically on the arm of the couch.
    Andrew took advantage of my position and hovered over me. He leaned down close to my face, his lips grazed my cheek as he whispered in my ear.
    “I blame you,” he whispered. “For distracting me to the point where I can’t concentrate on anything but your beautiful green eyes, you’re incredibly soft lips, and the feel of your perfect body in my arms.” He kisses down my neck and across my collarbone and up the other side of my neck to the opposite ear.
    I was frozen in place by his words, just stuck there beneath him, unable to do anything but stare up at him, wide-eyed. He was feeling for me, exactly what I was feeling for him. Except Andrew’s only thought was of me, while my thoughts of him were peppered with memories of Josh.
    “I think about the same thing,” I breathed. It was true. Mostly.
    Andrew rose up away from my ear and placed a quick, barely there kiss on my lips. I started to reach my arms up to pull him closer, but my phone chose that instant to be obnoxious. We both sighed as he rose up off of me and walked off to the back of the apartment. I pulled out my phone and swiped it open to reveal a text from Josh.
    Please call me it read.
    No, I will not call you. I have nothing to say to you and you just ruined my day, I said to myself and slammed the phone into the seat of the couch. I will never be rid of Riverview at this rate.

CHAPTER SEVEN
     
    I sat on Andrew’s bed and attempted to read the history assignment. Attempted because I just ended up asking him what happened because I was too distracted by what happened on the couch. His kisses played across my lips, his arms were still around me. I couldn’t concentrate. He on the other hand, was totally cool. He was playing some stupid game on his computer as he rattled of what Professor Field
