We had just finished making out i rested my forehead on his and he kept giving me a peck on my lips while playing with my hair "Think we better go Elvis it's nearly time" i climbed off his lap while he ran over to where we was sitting to collect the cardigan i accidentally left on the floor, He started the engine up and started to drive along the bendy roads back to my house,There was complete silence you could hear a pin drop. I grabbed hold of his hand and held it while he'd drive, I turned on the radio Johnny Cash came on my heart burst with joy i started singing along to folsom prison blues "My mama told me son always be a good boy don't ever play with guns but i shot a man in Reno just to watch him die" Elvis was drumming along to the beat on the steering wheel,We pulled up to the entrance of the drive way he didn't drop me off at my door we both went silent again. I sighed "I guess it's goodnight Elvis but thank you for that beautiful trip to the lake i really enjoyed it" "Me too baby i just wish it didn't have to end so quickly but i wont see you for a week i've got a few tour dates and shows i need to do" my heart started to slow down i can tell how miserable i am going to be without seeing him in the week but at least work till keep my mind off it all, "Okay Elvis well i'll see you next week or something, Just call me when you're back" I opened the passenger door and slammed it shut, I started to walk up my drive away and i heard his heavy foot steps chase behind me, He pulled my arm so i turned to him and kissed me hard "goodbye Elvis" my eyes started to water i carried on walking back up the drive way as i heard him run back to his car and speed off.

I knocked on my front door as i forgot my house keys at home when i left, I quickly wiped the tears away from my eyes as my mother opened the door "Hey darlin'" she said in her sweet southern soft voice,I grabbed her body and pulled her close to me and hugged her "mama he took me to the most beautiful place" she pulled away and held my hand as we walked into the kitchen,I sat on the bar stool and there was cookies and milk out,I started to tell her where he took me and what happened apart from the make out part but i really needed to ask her "Mama why did you let Elvis and his mother and father in? You have always told me you'd never let me near him and you don't even let me listen to his music!" i had a huge smile on my face "I'm not sure why i let them in darlin' he just seemed to pleasant plus he's kinda cute! but don't tell your father i said that" she laughed "So what do you think of him and his family then?" "They seem like such great people i wouldn't mind if they came round multiple times! i just wish you told me you was working with Elvis it was so unexpected" "Tell me about it,He was only meant to call the house phone not come round!" we both laughed, I took a bite of one of those chewy cookies that were beside me. I headed upstairs to my bedroom and got undressed and changed into my night dress and crawled into bed, My sheets and pillow smelt of his musky cologne and i fell asleep pretty quickly.

It was Thursday morning the sun was beaming through my window,I grabbed the book that was on my bedside table and started to read a chapter in bed while finishing off the cookie i forgot to finish last night. I put my book down and walked into my en-suite bathroom and got into the shower. The steaming hot water touching my skin as i put shampoo into my hair.The bathroom smells of strawberries and cream from the scent of the shampoo, It was my favourite. I heard a knock on my bedroom door. I quickly got out the shower wrapped myself in a towel and tied my wet hair up. I walked out of the bathroom and it was Elvis,He was stood there with a bouquet of flowers. He quickly faced the wall "Don't worry Dorothy i didn't see anything" he laughed, My face went bright red.He put the flowers onto my bed "I've only come round to drop these off and i'm out of here" I pulled his shoulders and kissed him "Thank you for the flowers they're beautiful" they were pink,white and red roses. No one has ever bought me flowers apart from my mother on valentines. We kept kissing until Colonel shouted "Elvis we're gonna have to go your going to miss your flight!" he pulled a small wrapped up gift from his blazer pocket and put it on my bedside table,As he was leaving my room i smacked his bum "oh lord baby girl you're a fiesty one in the morning" he ran down the stairs and shouted goodbye to my parents and little sister.

I walked over to my wardrobe and picked out some black stretchy pants and a long sleeved black blouse with white polka dots on them and i got dressed, I sat down at my vanity table and applied my foundation,eyeliner and blush and a pale pink lipstick. I brushed my hair back and put it into a neat bun. I put silver studded ear rings in. I took the flowers downstairs to my mother "Gosh girl aren't you a lucky lady" "I know right! they're so beautiful" my mother took them out of my hands and started to cut the stems of the roses and placed it in a crystal vase. I took a bowl from the cupboard and reached for the corn flakes on the top-shelf in the cupboard and poured myself a bowl and i grabbed the milk from the fridge and poured some into the half filled bowl. My mother walked out of the room and headed upstairs while i sat at the dining table and ate my cereal while reading the newspaper. My father wasn't home and nor was my sister as my auntie takes my sister to her house to play with my cousins.

I put my bowl into the sink and washed up some of the glasses and plates that were in the sink from others eating. Someone was banging on the front door, I put the glass down i had in my hand and put it on the drying rack and ran over to the door, I looked through the peep hole in the door, It was my best friend i swung the door open and screamed "HAYLEY!! WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE!!" I haven't seen her since she left town after we finished school, She dropped her bags and wrapped her arms around my petite body and we was swaying side to side. My mother ran down the stairs and hugged Hayley. My mother was childhood friends with Hayleys mother, I picked up Hayleys heavy luggage off the door step and she made her way up to my room. I put her luggage down by the door. We cuddled on my bed and catched up on life,The dreaded question came "So has there been any boys in your life since i left!" "Well Hayley...You're not going to believe this.. But i'm kind of seeing THE Elvis presley..i met him at work and i tried to not fall for him but yesterday he took me out for the night it was so perfect" i had a huge smile on my face. She jumped off my bed and went through her luggage and pulled out an Elvis Vinyl with a picture of his face on it "THIS ELVIS PRESLEY?!" as she was holding it pointing at the picture. I chuckled "Yes Hayley that Elvis presley!" She screamed at the top of her lungs, I laughed so hard it wasn't giving me stomach pains and was crying of laughter. She put the Elvis record on my vinyl player and she was dancing around my bedroom and singing along to his songs, I had totally forgot about the present he left on my bedside table, I reached for it and unwrapped the wrapping better and bow, It was a beautiful set of pearl studs. I quickly put them into the draw of my bedside table.

It was becoming night time now me and hayley got so lost in time while catching up about life and work while Hayley started to unpack her clothes i make reservations at a restaurant we used to always go to "Hayley be ready by 5:30 we're going out for dinner". I ran downstairs to talk to my mother about what me and Hayleys plans are for the night, She told me that my father wont be home for a week and 3 days as my father had to do some last minute meetings around different states.

Hayley came down the stairs in some of my clothes because she knew was always welcome to wear my clothes and jewellery,She was the one friend that stuck by me after we left school and supported my choice not to go to college just like everybody else. We left my house and Hayley drove us to our favourite Italian restaurant, We got seated at the back of the restaurant.We ordered our pasta dishes and two small glasses of white wine,We never got questioned about our age at this restaurant when ordering alcohol. We got talking about how life was in the new state she had moved to "Dorothy i really want to move back but i really cannot leave my mama out there and i live here in Memphis, She's a mess after my grandmother passed, She just isn't her self. This is why i'm here to give her a break." she started to cry,you could see she was stressed out, I grabbed her hands and started to kiss and rub them. It's something we've always done when one of us is sad, we both found it so comforting. The waitress passed us our food and we began to tuck in. The room was full of chatter i could barely hear what hayley was saying to me. We finished our dinner and ordered some lemon cheese cake that we was going to share,After desert we paid our bill and headed home.

Once we got home we headed up to my bedroom and we both got into my bed and fell asleep with me spooning her.
