I pulled away from the kiss after a little while.

"The bracelet!"

I ran out of the bathroom and saw the bracelet Shawn had given me, still sitting on the nightstand.

I clasped it around my wrist as Shawn walked in.

"The what?" He laughed at my sudden outburst.

"The bracelet you gave me. I didn't want to forget it." I held up my wrist to show him.

"You still have that thing?"

"I thought it was pretty. Don't you remember why you gave it to me?"

"No, it's a bracelet." He laughed again.

Wow, I could listen to that laugh all day.

"When we were twelve your Mum took us with her to go Christmas shopping for Aaliyah. When we were in a jewelry store I saw this bracelet and wanted it, but I was short ten dollars. I mean forty dollars for this piece of junk? That's ridiculous."

"That's exactly what it is, a piece of junk." Shawn agreed with me.

"Shhh, I'm not done telling the story. So, I asked you if I could borrow ten dollars from you, but you said that you were saving it for something special and couldn't lend it to me. I forgot about the bracelet and spent my money on something else. But on Christmas Day, I remember you ran over to my house and gave me this bracelet. That's why this piece of junk is special, because you gave it to me."

"I honestly don't remember that." Shawn said.

"You don't remember a lot of things." I told him and we both laughed.

"Clover?" Shawn asked.

"Hmmmm?"

"Does this mean you're still my girlfriend?"

"Yes."

I stood on my tippy toes and wrap my arms around his neck and I pulled him into for a kiss.
