It was cold as balls outside, considering it was mid October at night, but that didn't stop the football team from playing the final game and the band supporting them with preppy sounds.
Pete is so nervous hes pretty sure he's going to just slip into a giant hole and live in the middle of the earth. Which, is what will happen if he loses this game. It's already the fourth quarter but it's so close that the slightest mistake could make them lose the game. 'Breathe in, out, repeat.' Pete repeated in his head. All he needs to do is catch this ball and he wins the game. Five seconds on the clock.
Five
Ball is thrown.
Four
Ball spirals through the air.
Three
Pete lines up for the catch.
Two
Ball approaches Pete.
One
Everyone is at the edge of their seat.
The buzzer goes off and everyone cheers wildly.
"I did it?" Pete gasps, thanking god he caught the ball. "I did it! We won!"
The team went to celebrate with him but then he saw Mikey. A cute little dork, glasses pushed up and his hands warming inside his sweatshirt sleeves as he smiles politely due to the win of his schools team. The little turd just looked so cute that Pete stops completely in his tracks. He knew he might regret this later but he had to do it.
Pete marches over to the boy, placing both hands on his cheeks and kissing him deeply, in front of the whole school, his friends, his family. But that didn't matter. At that point, all that matters was the boy standing on front of him, blushing from the public display of affection. "Be my boyfriend" Pete demands softly, watching Mikey's eyes sparkle.
"Of course" Mikey replies simply, kissing Pete once again. A collection of 'aw's echoes around them, and Mikey breaks the kiss, blushing wildly. Pete grabs the boys hand and turns back to the real world, seeing what his team mates think. There were some unsure faces but a lot more happy faces, but it didn't matter either way to Pete at the moment, only he and Mikey needs to be happy and Pete couldn't believe it took him that long to realise.
