fifteen.

July 14, 2005

Kay replayed the events of the previous night over and over. Sid was perfect; there was no other explanation. She hardly even got any sleep because she couldn't stop thinking about him.
The next day, the two were at the Lemieux's pool. Since they never go, they decided they would, considering it was really hot and nice out. The kids were swimming with them too. Kay was laying on a raft and Sid was pushing her around.
"What are we doing tonight?" Sid asked as he rested his head on her shoulder.
"I don't know, whatever you want." Kay replied, pecking him on the lips.
"No, i'll do whatever you want to do. You pick." He insisted.
"you're the creative one." Kay continued, Sid fought back though.
"no i'm not"
"yes" She smiled.
"no" Sid said, giving her a kiss to stop the arguing. "pick."
Kay began to think. It was about 12:00 so they had a whole day ahead of them. "dinner?" she said, knowing it was the most uncreative thing ever.
"Babe we always go to dinner." Sid whined. Before Kay could say anything, Austin spoke up.
"Hey guys, guess what?" Austin blurted out.
"what?" Kay and Sid said simultaneously.
"I really want to go to the zoo. Really bad." He said, putting emphasis on the really. Kay and Sid looked at each other.
"Did you tell your mom and dad that?" Sid asked
"yep" Austin nodded.
"well maybe we'll go" Sid said, looking at Kay. She smiled in approval.
"yesss" Austin got excited. They all laughed and Sid put him in a playful headlock as Austin fought back. They eventually gave up and Sid told the kids that they should go get ready. Immediately, they all got out of the pool and ran into the house. Sid got out and dried himself off, shaking the water off his hair.
"I guess we've figured out what we're doing" Kay chuckled.
"i guess so" Sid laughed, holding up a towel for Kay as she got out of the pool. She wrapped it around her.
"well i better go get ready" Kay said, gathering up her things.
"You can just get a shower here if you want" Sid said nonchalantly. Kay thought about it. She had all her clothes and everything, and she had a little makeup in the car.
"ok. i'll do that." she answered, taking Sid's hand and walking up to the house. They walked up the steps onto the back deck and through the screen door. Sid went into Mario's office to make sure it was ok if they took the kids and Kay waited. When Sid came back out, he led Kay up to his room.
"Ok. my shower's right there." he said, pointing to his bathroom. Kay nodded. "i'm gonna get one in the guest bedroom so you can have that one." he grabbed a towel and gave Kay a kiss before leaving and shutting the door behind him. Kay opened the door to the bathroom which was rather big. It had a roomy shower with a glass door and a marble counter with a sink. There was also a sky light right above the shower. She saw some of Sid's things sitting on the sink in a dark green duffle bag thing. She peeked in, knowing she shouldn't snoop, but she did anyway. There was a razor and shaving cream. "He hardly has any facial hair" she thought, and smiled. "cologne, deoderant, travel shampoo and soap, a comb, gel, Q tips, tooth brush, tooth paste... condoms?" she mummbled. "hmm". She turned on the shower and forgot about it. Of course he was gonna have those. He was almost 18 and could have any girl he could possibly want.
When the water warmed, Kay got in. She used Sid's Adidas shampoo even though it was for men; she just wanted to wash her hair. When she was done, she got out and grabbed a towel off the shelf in the corner next to the toilet. She wrapped it around her and walked out into Sid's room to get her clothes. Coincidentally, Sid walked in at the same time with a towel wrapped around his waste, revealing his freakishly toned hip muscles. Kay couldn't help but stare. Sid was looking at her too, though.
"Your bathroom's really nice" was all she could say.
"Glad you liked it" Sid chuckled, snapping himself out of it and grabbing his clothes off his bed, just as Kay was doing. They sorted through their stuff as they stood next to each other. Sid looked over at Kay. "i think you should wear that." he laughed, obviously joking.
"& I think you should wear that." Kay looked up at him and gave him a kiss. She pat him on the chest and grabbed her clothes, disappearing back into the bathroom. Sid just shook his head and smiled to himself.
Kay got dressed in her jean shorts and white summer top. She let her hair air dry, making it wavy, and emerged from the bathroom when she was finished. Sid came into the room dressed, also.
"ready?" he asked, the keys in his hand.
"yep" Kay replied. They walked down the stairs and ushered the kids into the SUV. Mario and Nathalie warned them to be careful, and they were off. Sid and Kay played games with the kids as they drove to the zoo. When they arrived, Sid bought all the tickets and they went up the big escalator to the zoo. They all held hands with each other; Sid was on one end and Kay was on the other. A few people asked for Sid's autograph and took a few pictures, but other than that they were pretty good about leaving him alone.
First they saw all the animals. They were looking at the elephants when something popped into Kay's mind.
"Sid, how come you didn't work out or anything today?" she asked. Sid turned to face her, but still kept an eye on the four kids.
"i don't know, i just took a day off." he answered, wandering why she was so concerned.
"well, i mean, i don't want you to stop your work outs to 'hang out'." Kay said, looking into his eyes.
"I know. Don't worry about it." He said, smiling at her to let her know it was fine. He squeezed her hand and the kids tugged on their shirts for them to go to the next exhibit. They continued on into the zoo and, later on, the aquarium. They payed extra special attention to the penguins, too.

They definitely had a full day. By the time they were on their way out of the zoo, it was 6:00. They all walked out the same way they came in, hand in hand, and they made their way to the car. Kay helped them all into the car and they were on their way.
"So did everyone have fun?" Kay asked, looking back at them. All the kids had their own stuffed animal they had bought.
"yeah!" they all shouted, and thanked Sid and Kay for taking them.
"i'm really hungry" Austin chimed in.
"Me too. Your mom got dinner." Sid said as he looked in the rear view mirror at him.
"nice" he replied with satisfaction.
They pulled into the driveway and the kids bolted into the house to tell everyone about their day. Sid and Kay stood in front of the garage.
"i love going to the zoo with you" Sid said, pressing his lips to Kay's forehead.
"Come over to my house anytime you want, it's the same thing." Kay joked, making Sid laugh.
"Except you don't look like an animal" Sid mused. Kay slipped her hands into the back pockets of his shorts, making Sid smile.
"well thanks" she chuckled
"Sometimes you act like one though..." Sid admitted. Kay leaned her head on his chest and rolled her eyes.
"jerk" she joked.
"i'm sorry" Sid chuckled.
"You're not forgiven" Kay smiled devilishly as she removed her hands from his pockets and walked into the Lemieux's house. Sid walked swiftly after her.
"Hey Nathalie" Kay greeted
"Kay! Thanks again for taking the kids today. Have some dinner." Nathalie insisted and Kay took a seat. Sid sat next to her as they dug into the Chinese take out Nathalie had got for all of them. They shared their stories from the zoo, and Kay and Sid helped clean the kitchen after dinner. Sid placed his hand on the small of Kay's back as her hands were submerged in the sink and whispered in her ear.
"Come to my room." Kay smiled slyly as she felt his breath on her neck. She dried her hands off and followed Sid, who was already half way there. She closed the door behind her and leaned back against it.
"yes?" She asked. Sid patted the bed next to him and she sat down. He brushed the hair off her shoulder and placed a kiss on her lips, making Kay wander. He then kissed her neck, his bee stung lips gliding along her soft skin.
"will you forgive me now?" Sid asked.
"mm.. maybe.." Kay teased. Sid pushed her onto her back and kissed under her chin down to her collar bone.
"how about now" Sid said in a seductive tone. Kay didn't say anything. He kissed her shoulder, moving her shirt strap out of the way. Kay held Sid's face, bringing him back face to face and kissed him sweetly. She rolled over onto him and got up.
"i've gotta go" she smiled as she turned to walk out of the room. Sid sat up on the edge of his bed with a grin on his face as she walked down the stairs.
"Bye Nathalie, thanks for dinner." Kay waved as she walked out the door, feeling triumphant in a weird way.
