Since asking Katie out, I have been walking on a cloud. Even the long, tedious weapon runs didn't bring me down, couldn't bring me down because once I got back to my hotel room, there would be a nervous, adorable message from Katie waiting for me.

We had to wait until next weekend, when I finally had an entire day off to do whatever I wanted. Sure I could have taken her out on any day if only for the evening, but I knew this would be her first date and the softening side of me wanted to make it as romantic as possible.

We still on for tonight then little Katie?

I send with a teasing smile on my face as I press send. I'm standing in my room, dressed in a Black Wolves cut and a smart white shirt- hey, I said I wanted it to be romantic.

As I wait for her reply to buzz on my phone I uncomfortably look at the club emblem embossed on my back. Since speaking to my mother, wearing it feels wrong and the sickening ache of home longing has taken root in the pit of my stomach.

Luckily, before I fall feet first into a spiral which will inevitably end in me returning home and landing right back in that self destructive spiral I was in for the last two years, my phone buzzes.

Instead of playing it cool for the imaginary eyes in my small room, I immediately pounce on the phone and grin when I see her text on my screen. I have honestly never felt like this before about any girl. There's just something very special about her innocent little smile and her kindness, and there is just something so tempting about her off limits nature.

It's like a forbidden love, but with an angry father threatening my future ability for procreation.

Yes, I'm ready. Dad is at the bar and has already said goodnight to me...

I can't help but feel a thrill in her innocence and purity, a small part of me wants to protect and cherish that part of her, but the larger part of me wants to corrupt her.

Great, I'll be round in five minutes x

I send the kiss before I even realise what I have done, the instinct just took over me. Katie doesn't reply again, I'm guessing she's too nervous about this to reply again and risk fucking it up.

Keeping my promise, I head out immediately so I'm not late and leaving Katie to spiral with nerves.

The warm evening air blows around me as the yellow curling leaves that have already fallen blow around my feet as I cross the compound. After carefully scanning for any watching eyes, there are none, I climb up the steps of the porch and knock on the door.

Before my knock even has time to reverberate around the house, the door is pulled open and I am yanked inside.

A surprised noise escapes me but it's quickly swallowed as little Katie launches her lips onto mine... I knew I would corrupt her, Minx.

One we both pull away, breathless and panting, Katie has the nerve to look up at me with a shy, innocent smile. My palm itches to swat at her bottom for that teasing glance, but I resist, for now.

"Hi..." she says with a breathless grin bouncing on her cheeks.

"Hiya, Katie girl..." as I speak I take my time looking over her, Katie has always been beautiful, even soaked to the skin or sick. But seeing her now, with a light dusting of makeup on her face and a sweet knitted dress with brown alley boots on, I know how lucky I am.

"Where are we going then?" She asks excitedly, for once her excitement has beaten out her nerves but I'm sure soon she'll start to mumble or shift her feet like she only does when she is unsure of herself.

"Well, I realised we couldn't go anywhere public in case someone tells your father but that's all the clues you're getting right now."

I playfully bop her nose as her eyes fall into a frown and an adorable pout graces her lips. Unlike last time when that pout teased me, this time I can kiss her like I want to.

And I do. And it feels better than anything I could have ever imagined. It's like I'm a school boy once again, but then again, I'm only 20. Maybe I could do with a high school romance.
