I walked down the long stairs and into the kitchen. I wasn't going to just ignore Maya's request, but I didn't want to talk about how I was feeling right now.

She was cutting some vegetables. "Help me with this. Cut some carrots."

"Okay." I grab a cutting knife, cutting board, and some carrots.

"What's going on, Logan?"

"Please, don't mention this to my friends." I beg before even implying anything about my relationship with JJ.

"Okay?"

"JJ and I have been doing more than just "hanging out" we've had sort of a romantic relationship, but we never put a label on it. I invited him to see something I had never shown anyone before. Then, he said he forgot, but he was with Kiara." I ramble. "Who, by the way, has a boyfriend."

"Wow." Maya mumbles.

"Yeah. And I really like him, Maya. A lot."

"Then tell him."

"But I'm so mad at him right now."

"Everyone gets mad at the person they love. How do you think your mother reacted when she found out your father was going into war?" Maya chuckles. I could tell there was a long story behind that.

"I guess, but I doubt he feels the same."

"Take a risk."

I smile and nod.

"Ah, look. It's beginning to rain. I'm going to pick up Ben from the Camerons'. Would you like to join me?" Maya asks.

Light raindrops were pattering against the large window in the living room. The clouds turned a dark shade of gray.

"No. I'm good."

I quickly left home and ran as fast as my body physically could. I was never the most athletic person in the world. I really wasn't going that fast.

It took about fifteen minutes for me to arrive at the Chaeteu-- JJ and his friends always referred to it as that. Although, I'm almost positive it's just John B's house. Plus, it's not much of a Chaeteu. It was a small shack house on the marsh.

It was pouring rain when I got to the Chaeteu. My clothes were completely drenched in sweat and rain. I couldn't wait to get home, but first, I needed to speak with the Maybank boy.

My nuckles hit the glass of the door and made a loud bang.

Thunder crashed against the clouds.

"JJ!" I yelled. I prayed the boy would come to the door quickly.

Soon, I found myself face-to-face with JJ Maybank. He smiled, admiring my features.

He chuckled, and I could only assume why. It was probably because I looked like a sad, homeless puppy.

"Hey." He smiled.

"Hey." I smiled back.

JJ stepped onto the small porch and let the rain continue to fall on him. He obviously didn't mind he was getting wet.

"Why are you here?"

"I needed to do this." I say.

"What-"

I cut off his voice by wrapping my small hands around his neck lightly. My lips crash against his and we stay in eachothers presence for what felt longer than I suppose it was. His hands wrapped around my wrists and I smiled.

Our mouths disconnected-- then connected again. It was like they couldn't stay apart too long. It was like I couldn't breathe without him anymore. I couldn't live. I couldn't function. I wasn't me.

I had kissed the boy before, but it had never felt like this.

I could feel JJ smiling throughout our long kiss. I would never admit this to him, but I could never imagine anyone kissing anyone that well.

I had never felt like this.

forelsket.

Finally. I know the feeling.

Though, I don't think it matches up to my current emotions. JJ made me so unbelievably happy. If our kisses are going to be like this forever, I want to spend the rest of my life with this boy.
