My Nerdy Little Secret

The proposal

B's POV
8:01 pm

   I walk towards the lake nervous, my mind races. What if she's breaking up with me? What if she realizes she likes guys!? I start to panic and thinking of everything thing that can possibly go wrong. Before I even realize it I arrive at the lake.

   There stands Quinn looking determined and serious. I gukp and walk to her, she smiles at me and grabs my hand. I can feel my face go red as she looks me in the eyes.

    "Blythe Jennings, I've liked you for a while now, to the point where thinking of a life without you in any way makes my head hurt and my heart ache." She pulls out some type of cloth from her bag, "3 months ago we met for the first time, and although you didn't like me all that much, I thought you were amazing."

    She unfolds the clothe reveling a dark blue sweater with a captain America symbol. She lent this to me when we first met, when she spilled food all over my shirt. I look up at her, she continues "Blythe, this was the first thing that binded us together and I want it to be the last thing as well." Tears form in my eyes, she is breaking up with me.

    She laughs "silly, by that I mean." She put the sweater on me, messing up my hair. I don't really care at this point, "will you stay by my side for as long as you love me and as long as I love you? Blythe will you be my girlfriend?" My eyes widen and my face lights up. I nod my head uncontrollably and jump into Quinns arms "OF COURSE YOU DUMB NERD!" I say.

     She hold my face and pulls it up to her for a kiss, I accept and kiss her back. All of a sudden I hear cheering and clapping, my face goes red as I look around. There I see, Jack, Z, and Craig, even Craig has a small smile on his face. I laugh and hug Quinn "you all knew?" I ask.

    Craig raises his hand "I did but Jack and Z were just told about an hour ago." Jack comes over and hugs me "yeah you don't think I'd miss out on my sister getting married did ya." He laughs, I blush but laugh with him, Z hugs herself "aww it's so cute, I may be aromatic but that doesn't mean i can't be a totally romantic!" We all laugh at her.

   I never even relized that Quinn and I never officially started dating, I assumed after we made up and kissed it was just common sense. I guess I should have asked how she felt about all of it. I look over at her and smile. "I'd rather be here than anywhere at all."

We all share snacks with each other and tell funny memories of our friends and family, the twins had the best stories of course. "Oh oh and the jack falls down the ice hill and his pants get caught on a rock causing him to run back up the hill to get them in his boxer's not to mention that his-" Quinns cut off by jacks hand on her mouth "it was cold ok it's natural!"

   We all laugh at him and continue on, makin fun of him every once in a while. When the councilor announces that we all have to return to our own cabins we clean up all the trash. We say bye to jack and Craig then head back to our cabins, Z talks about how were so cheesy and a total cliche. We laugh and agree, we kinda are, we wave bye to Z as she leaves to her cabin and that leaves just Quinn and I.

    I want to touch her but how do you even tell someone that? We enter our cabin and lay on our own beds "man I'm tuckered out, today went by so fast but felt like days as well." Says Quinn and pulls out a book to read, she finished her other on and is on a comic now. I smile and change into my PJs, I feel Quinn staring at my back, this makes me shiver.

    "Hey B." She says in an emotionless voice, I gulp and look at her "yes?" She scratches her neck and looks away. "Um I've been wondering for a while now, if we could." She stops talking and waves her hands "nevermind haha it's stupid." She pretends to go back to reading but I build up the courage and speak my mind. "Quinn I want to touch you."
