Music: Another Guy - second thoughts

lil bit of spice here but not much so dw abt it

He looks at his ice cream cone and refuses to look at me. Shit did I mess up? Well no going back now.

"Ok yea I know cringey and awkward. I didn't even realize how I felt until like last night. I don't want us to be awkward or anything..."

He doesn't look up.

"Please just say something"

"I've been trying to think of a witty way to say something but I can't so I'll just say it. I like you too. When I told the stream that you were cute, I wasn't joking, and I really didn't think you liked me back so I just.. you know... said nothing."

We look at our ice creams. Cold chocolate drips down my thumb and to my wrists. I can't bother to wipe it.

"Can I kiss you?" I ask.

"Yea" he says with a little smile.

I just stare at him awkwardly.

"And...... waiting...."

"Ok well you just ruined it IT'S A SCARY THING BESIDES I HAVEN'T KISSED ANYONE SINCE MIDDLE SCHOOL"

He just gives me a 'waiting' look.

Our faces attract like magnets until we're an inch apart.

My heart flutters. I've never really had anyone make me feel this way. I've never even had a real, serious relationship.

"You know we're gonna have to address twitter, right?" he says quietly.

"Yea I know."

I take one last sigh and stop controlling the magnets. Our lips meet. A short and gentle kiss. Short and gentle yet I feel like I've been waiting for that a long time. 

I look back at his face and see the melted chocolate dripping down his cheek from my hand.
