Keean came over around ten o'clock the next day. My heart came into my mouth because I thought Dad was probably going to punch him. I was stunned he had the guts to turn up.

Dad nodded a greeting at him and made him stand at the door while he said, "Do you and I need to talk or did you get the message last night."

Keean rubbed his hand up the back of his head. "No...I'm pretty sure I got the message last night, Mr. Johnson."

Dad nodded curtly. "If we're going to make this work you have to respect my wishes as well as my daughter. You got that."

"Yeah sure, Mr. Johnson, I got it."

Dad continued. "I don't want to hear any of this shit about how you couldn't help yourself because you remember son...your brains are at the top end of your body. Not below your waist."

Keean stood with his head hung. I'm sure it was to hide the amusement in his eyes. Dad took it as humbling respect. "I'll remember, Mr. Johnson," he said. "I don't want to disrespect Charlie or you."

Dad, feeling he'd done his duty stepped back and let Keean come inside. I smiled at him in apology. He smiled back at me.

Mum asked if we wanted a drink but we said no. I took Keean down stairs. We sat in the shade of the mango tree in the back yard. He didn't kiss me but held onto my hand. "Did you get into trouble?"

"Not really," I said fiddling with the finger he'd used to touch me.

"I'm sorry," he said then lifted my hand to his mouth.

I chuckled. "Yeah you should be. Now he's making Mum take me to the doctor's to have me put on the pill."

Keean raised his eyebrows and gave me a one sided grin. "It's probably a good idea, Charlie."

"Yeah, I know." I played some more with his fingers. "Keean, I don't want you to come early to get me for school anymore. I don't want to risk..." I didn't know how to say it out loud.

"What, Charlie?"

I bit my lip and focused on his eyes. "I don't want to lose my virginity in my parent's house or in your car." I looked away. "I don't want it to be like that."

He touched my chin and pulled my lip from my teeth. "Okay...I get it. Have you changed your mind about me?"

I gasped, that's not what I was saying so I looked straight at him. "God, don't think that, Keean. If Dad hadn't banged on the roof when he did I wouldn't be a virgin today." He grinned so I continued. "It made me think about it all...you know, what's right for me. I don't want to be cramped up in some car or disrespecting my parents by doing it in their house."

Keean nodded his understanding, leaned forward and kissed me lightly on the lips. I heard a loud clearing of someone's throat. Keean chuckled against my mouth and pulled away. "I get it, Charlie. I really do and I'll respect that. But I want to come and get you early some mornings. I want to have more than five minutes on our own together every now and then. I promise you. I won't let it go that far."

Keean moved his head closer again. He touched the back of my head and kissed me fully on the mouth. I heard the loud throat clearing again and Mum's hushed voice.

"For God's sake, Bernie, leave them alone. You were young once."

I heard Dad chuckle. "Yeah that's what I'm worried about."

I was sure I heard a giggle and Mum say. "Bernie..."
