I still love you.

Chapter 17.
    "Wake up love birds, it's almost 11, and we've go sh//t to do." Brynn retorted, throwing a half full glass of water on us.
"F//ck." I muttered, feeling the freezing water run down my back.
"Was a simple 'Please wake up' not good enough?" I spat, chucking the cup back at her.
"Well, I thought about that, but this just seemed more fun." She snickered, walking back out into the kitchen.
Connor and I both got up and traveled back to our room to get ready for the day.
I putt on my abercrombie bikini, and a pair of shorts and a t-shirt that draped over my shoulder, over top.
I put my hair up in a ponytail, bobby pinning my bangs back.
I slipped on my flip flops, and headed out to the kitchen to grab a quick breakfast.
Quick obviously meant a granola bar.
"Uhmm, Kadri..there's an interviewer outside who keeps asking for you." Ainsley said a little unsurely.
"Uhh, okay." I said hesitently, setting my granola bar down on the counter and walking outside.
A tall woman in her middle 40's had a pen and notebook in her hand.
"Can I help you?" I asked curiously.
"Are you Kadri Grey?" She asked calmly.
I nodded.
"That's me." I said, lacking enthusium.
For the next 3 hours, she asked me questions about my teen suicide essay.
No- she asked me every question she could possibly think about that reguarded teen suicide.
By the end of the interview, I was wishing that I wasn't Kadri Grey.
When I finally got back inside, Brynn told me that I had to start getting ready for the festival in town square.
It wasn't a formal party, just one of those 'show up, eat, and play games,' kind of parties.
I picked out a casual summer dress from my closet, then straightened my hair.
I decided to poof it too, just to make it look like I put a little effort into it.
I added the finishing touches to my makeup with glitter eyeshaddow.
"Time to go Ka-" Connor paused.
"What?" I asked self consiously, looking into the mirror to make sure my eyebrows were even.
"You look beautiful." He said shyly, running his fingers through his thick brown hair.
"Thhanks." I blushed, slipping on my black rhine stone sandals.  "You look pretty handsome your self." I smiled up at him.
His face redened a little.
We all headed out the door, making our way towards the topless car that would be bringing us to the festival.
When we arrived, games were sat up everywhere.
Young children ran freely, while parents chased them.
In the middle of the square was a DJ, whose speakers blared out music, and the middle of the square was being used as a dance floor.
We all bulleted off in different directions, agreeing to meet back at the square in an hour.
"Lets play this!" I said excitedly, dragging Connor to one of the many games.
"Let me guess, I have to pay?" He teased.
I smiled at him, and he pulled out a 5, handing it to the game owner.
In return, he gave us 3 darts.
I stood staring at them, not knowing what to do.
"Here." Connor said, pressing his body against mine from behind, wrapping one arm around  my waist, and the other on my hand to help me throw the dart.
**********
"We won!" I squeeled, as the last dart collided with a green balloon.
The man handed Connor a stuffed teddy bear.
"For you." He smiled gently, handing me the bear.
I squeezed it tightly against my cheast, vowing to myself that I would keep this forever.
"Thanks." I reached up, givinghim a kiss on the cheek.
"Okay everyone, we're going to slow it down a bit!" The DJ announced, putting a slow song on.
"Care to dance?" Connor asked.
I nodded, as he took my hand.
He pulled me close to him, wrapping his hands tightly around my waist.
I placed my hands on his broad shoulders, staring into those brown brown eyes, that stared right back into mine.
"Kadri." Connor whispered, just loud enough to hear over the music.
"Yes?" I asked calmmly.
"I-I." He stuttered.
I felt his warm breath brush against my cheeks.
   "I love you."
