When Sidney got back, he took a shower, and then they headed to Halifax, and he and Taylor showed Kate around. They went to the harbor, and just walked around downtown, pointing things out to Kate along the way. Not too many people bothered Sidney, which was nice. Kate and Sidney walked hand-in-hand, and the three of them spent a few hours downtown, before heading home in the late afternoon.
When they walked in the door, both Trina and Troy were there.
“Hey you three,” Trina greeted them. “How was Halifax?”
“It was so nice,” Kate replied. “We went to the harbor, and just walked around. Everything was really cool.”
“That’s good,” Trina said. “Taylor, do you want to go get ready for your sleep over?”
Taylor nodded her head, and went to her room to pack up her things.
The four of them talked for awhile, and soon, Taylor came out with her things packed. Troy took her over to her friend’s house.
A little while later, while Sidney and Kate were outside, Trina poked her head outside to talk to them.
“Well, we’re off,” she said to them.
“Where to?” Sidney asked.
“We’re going to Angela and Mark’s house for that party, and we won’t be back until late.”
“Oh yeah, that’s tonight.”
“Have fun!” Kate told Trina and Troy.
Trina whispered something into Sidney’s ear, and he blushed. Kate waited until she heard the front door slam before asking Sidney what that was about.
“She told me, and I quote, ‘No funny business,’” Sidney replied, laughing.
“And what exactly does that mean?” Kate asked, laughing back.
“Oh, you damn well know what it means.” Sidney moved closer to Kate and kissed her. Kate picked up from that kiss where the night was headed. In the kitchen, Kate heard something.
“Oh shit, the water,” Kate said, hopping up from her chair. She ran into the kitchen, and saw that the water had boiled over in the pot on the stove, but that there was still more than enough for their pasta.
“Do you want to get the salad out?” Kate asked. She was starving and dying to eat.
“Sure,” Sidney said. He got the salad bowl out of the fridge and placed it on the table, along with everything else they needed.
Kate waited for the pasta to be done. As they stood at the stove, Sidney stood behind Kate and wrapped his arms around her waist. Kate leaned back into Sidney, and just didn’t want the moment to end. It was perfect. But soon the pasta was done, and they enjoyed a long dinner. They cleaned up their dishes after dinner, and then sat outside, since it was a nice night. They stayed out there long after the sun went down, Sidney with his arms wrapped around Kate’s waist.
“This sounds really corny, but I wish it could just stay like this, forever,” Kate said.
“I don’t know, it’s pretty horrible if you ask me,” Sidney replied.
Kate elbowed him, and they both laughed.
“You ass,” Kate said, still laughing.
“You know I’m kidding, Kate. There’s no place I’d rather be than here with you.”
“That’s a good line,” Kate said sarcastically.
“No, I mean it.” Sidney unwrapped his arms from around Kate and looked her right in her eyes. “I love you Kate, I do. I wish you didn’t have to go home in a couple days.”
“Same,” Kate told him.
She looked up at Sidney, and he leaned in and kissed her. As they continued to kiss, they stood up, and made their way inside, through the kitchen and family room, and down the hall. As Sidney pulled Kate’s shirt up and over her head, they reached Sidney’s bedroom, where, as they were about to reach the bed, shut the door behind them.
