Chapter Two.
At lunch, me and Kacie went into the lunch room. My eyes search the sea of people for him. Almost immediately I see him. Sitting in a group of boys, he looks up. His eyes find mine and he smiles. I blush and he winks. It all goes so slowly. And before I know it he's walking over. But no, he couldn't be coming to see me. Why? Why would a gorgeous boy like him go for an ugly girl like me? He could have any body. He wouldn't want me. I'm nothing special. All my friends tell me I'm perfect, and I want to believe them. I want to so bad. But I can't.
"Hi. I'm Taylor." He says to me. He's so close, I want to grab him and kiss him. But I can't, he's just a player.
"I know." I say, trying to be calm, am I crazy?. "We all know."
"Well, what's your name pretty little thing." He says. I feel my cheeks burning.
"Kayla." I say. "Why would you like to know?" I ask, trying to be cool. He smiles, and flips his hair side ways.
"Just wondering. Hey maybe you wanna go to the movies today? I'm going to see Ouiji. Maybe you'd like to come." He says, smiling. All of my brains say no, but my heart tells me to go for it.
"Sure. And maybe if I get scared, you can hold me, and protect me. Ya?" I say.
Man I'm on a role! Where do I get some of this stuff? Go Girl!
"Ya, that would be nice. So see you at six?" He says. I laugh and nod. Then he slowly walks away from me.
"Wait!" I yell. He slowly turns and smiles. "I need your number," I say handing him my phone. He clicks the screen on. He smiles when he sees the picture of me and Kacie in bikinis looking "super hot" as Kacie says. He bites his lip and slides the screen. He begins to type in a contact and hands my phone back. With a wink he walks away.
I look down at my screen.
"Bae😍"

I giggle and sit down, and begin to chomp on my slightly burned pizza.
After school I speed home, and slam the door as I run to my room. I take a quick shower and blow dry my dirty blonde hair. After I straighten it, I put on makeup and get a pair of cute white shorts and a bright pink Hollister crop top. I spray perfume on and slip my pink Vans and look at my appearance in the mirror. Good I guess. I quickly apply my Carmex and I get a text.
Bae😍- Hey, I'm outside your house. Are you ready?
I smile and walk out my front door to see Taylor in a beautiful Range Rover. He smiles at me and I hop in next to him.
"Hey!" He says. My mind is going bonkers, but some how I manage to turn it off. All I remember is one last thought.
He's just a player. He's gonna hurt you. Don't let his looks fool you-
And then I shut it off. I set my hand on the den er console and I feel his warm hand over mine. A wave of tingles shot through me. What is this? How can I like him? He's a player.
When we get to the movie we both some candy and pop and went in. We sat in the very back row and began to talk.
"What's your rate for me?" He asks with a raise of his eye brows.
"If you're saying out of ten, I would say 9 1/2." I say.
"You're definitely a ten. Straight dime." He says, as he leans in and kisses my cheek.
"Well maybe if you kiss me again I would UP your score." I say.Oh God, did I just say that? Will he?
He smiles and leans in, going for the cheek. But I quickly turn my face,Mao our lips are locked on to each other. He smiles and kisses me back. It seems as if I am floating. Am I floating?
"Mm. I'd say... Ten" I muster out, my head spinning.
"Why thank you Miss. " he says. A grin flies across my face.Damn it! Stop this right now. He's a player! He's gonna hurt you. Remember, when he broke your best friends heart? Hello? Listen to-
"Your welcome mister." I say. He smiles and then the lights dim down. And the movie starts. I smile as I feel Taylor's arm snake around me and pull me closer. A smile just about rips my cheeks in half.
About half of the movie, I get scared. I hum and put my face into his chest, not wanting to see the movie. I breathe in his smell. I want to turn that smell into a perfume and wear it for ever. I feel his lips on my head as he holds me tight. My mind screams at me, and I don't even care. I don't care at all. I feel so protected. So loved. And I sit there and don't move for the rest of the movie. And after the movie is over he takes me to his car and we sit in silence for a while, just awkward. But soon I break the silence.
"So why did you ask me? To go with you. Not Hanna or some one else. Some one pretty, and worth it all." I say, immediately regretting it. I look at him as he's frowning.
"Because they're all look king for sex or a quick make out, but I see it in your eyes. You're beautiful and you're not just some slut. You, you're so beautiful and amazing, and I wanted you. Not Hanna. Ya me and Hanna have... "He pauses for a second then shakes his head. "But you, you're just different. And if you ever call your self ugly I will never ever let you go. I will never let you say that again, because you're not. You're perfect. And to me that's all. And I know what you're thinking. I'm a player. I'm not. I used to be, but when I looked into your eyes, and saw you. I wanted to change, and all I want is you. For ever. I promise if I you let me, ... I'll never let you go. I will cherish you and hold you. Because that's what you deserve." He says, finally taking a breath.
"Do you really mean that?" I ask with tears in my eyes. He nods and leans in to kiss me. I kiss him back for a few seconds and pull away.
"I know we just met and all but will you be my girlfriend? I can't take it anymore. I want you," he says and I nod, not able to speak.Well great, shit! Just shit!
"Y-yes." I say and then we pull into my house. I smile and get out. He walks me to my door step. And we stand there in the ear just looking at each other. And then he leans in again, cupping my face softly. The kiss goes for not long enough before he walks away with a wink. And I slowly move. Inside.
What was that?
Without being able to speak I flop down on the bed and smile. And I fall asleep with a great big smile plastered across my face. I am dating Taylor Caniff.
