《Love needs Expression (PART ONE) 1970's》Chapter 5
Advertisement
I angrilly finished my chores and washed up for bed. I cried for a little bit, I was devistated. But when I climbed into bed, I heard my father and my aunt. " Marc, for god sakes Jennifer is almost sixteen! She likes this boy!"
" You knew about this?"
" Of course I did!" she answered, cleaning the lasagna pan, " She's afraid to talk to you about things like that because she doesn't want you to freak out. And you did."
" I didn't start dating till I was eighteen. She's not even sixteen yet."
" Jeni's in a different generation Marc! You have to give in a little bit. Listen to your daughter, Marc."
It got silent.
" Think about it. Now get to bed."
I layed off the phone as my dad wished. But ever since I've barely talked to him. But can you blame me? I guess maybe you can.....I was relieved when I saw him hosting the grammys with Donny Osmond. When Osmond read the nominees, Michael looked shocked when he heard my name and had my fingers crossed I'd win. I did. I was awarded the, " Young Actress Award"
After giving out my long speech of "thank you"'s, Michael tapped my shoulder. " I need to talk to you backstage." I whispered in his ear, not looking back cause I knew my father would be cautios.
After the grammys, Michael went up to me.
" We need to talk."
" What? What is it?"
" Shhhh! Come with me...." I said as I grabbed his hand and took him into the private backstage department. " I just wanted to say I am so sorry about what happened last night! My dad saw that my phone bill went up from calling you so much...I told him I'd pay for it but he just wouldn't listen. Parents can really be a drag, you know? Anyways, I wasnt able to call you back cause it was late...so what were you gonna tell me?"

" I was gonna tell ya...I want you to be my girl."
And there it was.
" I mean for real, my girl. I really do love you, you know? and you're so very special to me! I'd do anything to make you happy, Jeni. I've never liked a girl, my age as much as I've liked you..."
Still speechless.....my heart was racing.
" So will ya?"
I didnt know what to say. Of course YES i wanted to be his girl, but, what could happen?? My father tells me no boys and the next day the most down to earth boy asked me to be his girlfriend?
Who knows what my father would do if he found out--what if he took away my career? Was it worth finding out?
Why does life have to be difficult?!! " Oh, Michael, you know I would." the words just slipped out of my mouth.
He laughed, smiled and gave me the biggest hug and held on tight.
" Well w-what does it mean for us, Michael?"I've never been with anyone before."
He laughed, " Well gee, I haven't either! I guess it just means I'll just call you my girlfriend and you can call me your boyfriend...and I can hold your little hand and kiss your cheek from time to time...I mean...if thats alright with you."
"Of course it is," I giggled, " Shoot. I have to go though. I'll see you later though right?"
" Wait a minute! You cant celebrate you first grammy?"
" I'm sorry, maybe sometime soon." I planted a kiss on his cheek, "'I'll see you around!"

Legendary Farmer (available on Kindle July 2022!)
NOTE: Legendary Farmer is now COMPLETE. The first book, Clearing, was released on Kindle Unlimited July 5, 2022 with significant edits. I will post the first chapter of Clearing, as well as three chapters of Cuckoo's Dream, another novel in the LF universe, as a stub, with a link to the first book, so if you love LF and want me to be able to keep writing consistently, please go give Clearing five stars! In the VRMMORPG, Veritas Online, things are getting a little stale. Since the game launched, only one world- wide event has occurred, and that was a year ago.. The players are still having fun, but everyone agrees it’s about time for something big to happen. Everybody tends to forget that big things grow from small things, and little things are always changing in Veritas.The human country of Quarternell is at peace for the first time in... ever. Aspen, a former war hero, feels like he’s earned a quiet life together with his animal companions. They’re tired of fighting, and other people in general. They plan to live peacefully, far away from the city. As soon as Aspen figures out this farming thing out, he’s never going to go anywhere again. Unfortunately for Aspen, his country and his goddess aren’t quite done with him yet.Rouge the Rogue is a casual gamer in Veritas Online. She’s just a kid, and her focus is supposed to be on school and hanging out with friends. Emphasis on ‘supposed to’. She’s already pretty good at the school thing, and she doesn’t actually have that many friends. What she really loves is exploring all the cool ways the developers of Veritas found to make their game unique and realistic. Then she’s offered a very special quest, and an opportunity to go beyond the average player. She’s never been that much of a rule follower anyway....Clearing is appropriate for most ages. It has minimal foul language, no sex, and some violence. It is LGBTQ+ friendly. (P.S. IMPORTANT! This book contains very mild profanity, no sex, and is meant to be FUN. Yes, the characters sometimes think Deep Thoughts, and idealism pretty much runs rampant, but, in the end, I hope you just enjoy reading it. Laugh, cry, share it with your kids, read it to your dog, whatever makes you happy. My goal is for it to be accessible to everyone from ages 12ish on up, so you could definitely consider it YA, but with lots of big words because I don't believe in talking down to my readers.) Book Two: Harrowing (Starts after the original Chapter Fifty, now Sixteen, since I condensed chapters from the same perspective together.) Zoey has started her summer internship at Veritas Corporation, and she can honestly say that being an adult is boring. Until she starts learning secrets she was never supposed to know. In game, Rouge is finally making progress on her big quest. Apparently Duke Penbrooke took too long to return to the world, so the world is coming to get him... in the form of a few assassins. Aspen is going to have to face the life he left behind, and deal with the fact that it's not as easy being 'dead' as he thought. When what he'd hoped would be a short trip back to civilization to resupply turns into a whole lot more, he'll have to fight for his life, his friends, and his kingdom. Book Three: Sowing Rouge and Aspen have reached Bright, only to find that their enemies were already expecting them. They will have to quickly unravel the mysteries of who their opponents actually are, because they're already ten steps behind. Rouge and Aspen are finally home, but that doesn't mean they can return to their peaceful days of farming. Their enemies are hot on their heels and determined to destroy everything they've managed to achieve. Join them and all their friends for the final volume of Legendary Farmer.
