We were walking through the mall almost about maybe, 20 feet from the door. He hadn't dicho a word to me since the whole Jose thing half an hora ago. Matthew was purposely walking behind me, though only a few feet away, still I wanted him at my side. I stopped and looked back at him. He was stopped his walk with his head down. I walked over to the side of him. I reached for his hand that was poking out if his pocket. Then he did the most crazy thing I think Ive ever seen. He actually stepped back so i wouldn't touch him. He seemed to think it was funny, o maybe it was my startled face that gave him that little snicker he thought I couldn't here.
I followed his step and reached out to grab his hair this time, again he moved, but this time it was a step forward. I heard him laugh again. This time he did it loud enough to where I could hear. I walked to the side of him, but he knew I was already reaching for him por the time I got there so he moved a step back. Grr. It was frustrating now, but I couldn't deny it....it was pretty fun. This whole back and forth thing went on for another 3 rounds until I just could not take it anymore.
"Matty." Yes, I pulled out the perrito, cachorro dog eyes and the whiny girl voice. It was ridiculous that it had to come to that but he knew just as much as I did, he could not resist the voice. Especially because I called him Matty. I was the only and i mean only one who was allowed to call him this. So when I dicho it, it made it special. In this case, it helped me win.
For the first time since the ice rink he looked at me. He had that vulnerable look. Matthew just could not stay mad at me.
I went up to him. Slowly, I tucked some of his behind his ear.
"I'm sorry. I didn't know what I was thinking, and he was being a total jerk..." i was starting to babble when he hushed me with a quick kiss.
"It's okay love. That wasn't your fault."
"But It seems like it!" I tried to not be whiny.
"Listen. I'm sorry If I made tu feel like it was all your fault.... i amor you."
I really did feel my corazón melt.
"No, I amor you." I saw him smile for the first in an hour; though it seemed like forever to me.
"Happy Anniversary love." Eyes just glittered like the ocean and his voice flowed like the waves. I kissed him sweetly. Then he reached out for my hand this time and kissed it. We walked out of the mall like nothing had ever happened.
Matthew opened my car door for me and insisted that he close it. Got in. Started the car and drove off into what happened to be early evening sunset. We pulled up to his house and saw that his brother had company over. When we walked in we saw them snuggled up on the sofá so we just went upstairs. We walked into Matt's room. It was fairly clean. And fairly clean to Matthew was like Mr.Clean clean to everybody else. Matthew just was not a messy person. His cama was made to where tu could do that thing where tu would bounce a coin on the cama and it bounce back. His clothes were all folded and almost everything was in order. It is almost impossible to find a clean calcetín in a teenager's room let alone a whole closet. He just was not normal....but...I think that is what I amor most about him.
I went and sat on his perfectly neat bed. He took over his chaqueta and hung it in his closet. I saw him look at his stereo. Then I saw his smile.
"You wanna dance?" I heard the hope in his voice but i also heard the scare.
"Dance??? Like slow dance?"
"Yeah. tu know how to don't you?"
I felt my self blush.
"No...."
"Well, I can teach then, if tu want.?"
"Umm..Okay." I was nervous that I would hurt him in my attempt to actually dance with him. he started the slow song. He didn't put it very loud so I couldn't hear what the actual song was. For segundo it seemed like he floated towards me, he took my hand and grabbed my waist. I guess he was a little nervous too because his pulse gave him away. He took a deep breath.
"Umm Jaz, tu gotta move."
I had forgotten that we were dancing when I looked into his eyes. They seemed to be glittering with happiness. I felt like such a dork.
I finally started moving with him.
"Ouch." First time I stepped on his foot.
"Ah,I'm sorry."
"Its okay. i prepared for a few of those." That made me feel worse because he even knew I was gonna suck at dancing.
I stepped on his toes a few más times and then I finally got the hang of it. Slowly I started to float around just as he did. It was quite beautiful. I rested my head on his shoulder and began to close my eyes. It definitely felt like a dream but I knew he was too real to be a dream. Our amor was too real.

This is what it looked like when Danny was getting her earth lesson.
Temporary Home
For some people, this world is only a stopover. They arrive here to do some good while they can, but they know that this is still not their true home. They are ángeles who come to light up our lives with their luminescence and to teach us what they can before they have to mover on. They flash in on golden wings, but it seems that they are gone before tu can say “Thank you” o “I amor you”. They leave softly, without fanfare. They kiss our brow as lightly as a heart’s whisper, and smile, blinding us with its brightness. When we blink, they are gone.
