But How?

Did I Just Do This?

As Cole pulled away, he looked dead into my eyes. I kissed him again. This time more intense, more passionately. Still connected, he pushed me down onto the bed as my hands slipped under his shirt. I could feel his back flexing as he hovered over me...

Wait... Cole Peters, my enemy is hovering over me and we're making out.... SHIT!!!

"Stop!' I screeched.

"Oh god!, I'm sorry Caitlyn. you just asked me to kiss you and I've been wanting to do that since before I left town and when you asked me to kiss you I just thought that maybe you liked me too but..." He said this all so fast so I cut him off.

"Cole, it's okay" I cupped his face in my hands and gave him a gentle smile.

"Just take me home, please?" I requested then I pecked him on the cheek.

"okay" he said, looking at his hands.

We sat in silence for a few seconds before we walked down stairs and to his car. In the car we sat in a comfortable silence until Cole spoke up, handing me my phone.

"I took this while I was carrying you so that the Gatorade wouldn't ruin your phone." 

"I didn't notice that you took it, or even that it was missing. I was to caught up in... uh..."

"When we were making out" he said, smirking

"ya" I replied.

"Face it short-stack, we'd be so great together" he said as if he was presurring me into... whatever this is.

"Cole Peters..." I chuckled

"Yes, Caitlyn Mathews..." he said brightly.

-*-*-*-*

We soon pulled up to my house. I saw my dads car along side with the one my older brother, Ezra and I share. I drive the car more than Ezra because he is always at his girlfriends house.

"Do you want to come in?, I think we should talk about earlier" I said, honestly 

"You just want to make out more, don't you!" he said, smirking

"No" I kind of lied but I do think we should talk. My phone buzzed as I got out of his car.

My phone read:

YOU HAVE FOUR NEW MESSAGES

I opened my phone to read my texts. 3 from Jessie Smith and 1 from Tori Webster, both my best friends. I opened my messages from Jessie, reading:

WHERE ARE YOU???!!!?!?!

WHY DID YOU GET IN THE CAR WITH COLE PETERS?!?!???!!

TEXT ME ASAP?!?!?!?

I messaged her saying that I'm okay and she shouldn't stick her nose in other peoples possibe love lives so much. Then I opened Toris message, reading:

I heard you are with Cole Peters... make good choices.

I messaged her back saying that I don't think I did...

I opened the door then, Cole and I made our way into the kitchen for some food. I grabbed my favourite snack, oranges and Nutella (Jessie showed me this.) And Cole grabbed a granola bar, a banana and some Nutella To Go. We said hi to my dad and went up to my room to 'talk'... as Cole said it. We entered my room and I shut the door behind us.

"Cole?...Why are you just telling me this now? That you love me, I mean..." I questioned.

"Because I knew that before I left... you hated me... You still do" He said with such hurt, in his face.

"If you think I hate you so much, why would I asked you to kiss me? Cole, I feel something for you. I don't know why or how but I do." I said this honestly, too honestly.

"Because you saw the guilt in me, the guilt of hurting you all those years ago. That's what you do, Caity, you give in to the guilt of other people." he's right "But if you truely feel something for then admit it. Right here. Right now.

"That's the thing, I don't know what I'm feeling. Tell me what to feel, Cole" With that, he ran over, cupped my face with his hands and started kissing me. And I kissed him back.

-*-*-*-*-

Cole and I walked down stairs to see that my dad was gone.

"Are you busy tonight?" Cole asked me.

"No,why?"

"I want to go on a date tonight, lets go see a movie"

"okay, what time?"

"movie starts at 7 and I'll pick you up when you're ready"

I looked at the clock, 5:48 I has an hour to get ready. No problem. I just had no clue what to wear...

Cole left and I went upstairs to get ready. I opened the doors to my well-organized closet and stood there, clueless for what felt like 20 minutes. I finally picked out my cream sweater with gold studding on the shoulders, black leggings and Ugg boots that I was proud to say were real. I loosely curled the ends of my hair. I made a deep side part and swept the front pieces to the back, securing it with a black bow. I touched up my makeup from earlier, adding a bit my eyeliner to my water line. I texted Cole saying that I was ready to go and I went downstairs to quickly grab a bite to eat before we left. I grabbed the Nutella and this time a banana, instead of an orange. I heard the door bell ring and I skipped to answer.

"Hey, beautiful." Cole greeted me proudly, I gave him a cheesy smile to hide the fact that he makes me blush so easily. "Ready to go"

"Yep, just let me grab my bag." And with that, we had officially started our first date.

-*-*-*-*-*

Cole and I stopped off at Target to get candy for the movies. We got Twix Bites, Mike and Ikes, Kit Kats and a Toblerone. When we paid, I got a new Mint EOS. We made our way over to the theater, got our popcorn and took our seats.Some asshole reserved the whole back row, so we sat in the third row. I enjoyed the movie, it was funny.Cole and I sat in a comfortable silence with the music, only humming in the background. I threw him the occasional glance and a soft smile.

We soon pulled up to my house, Cole walking me to the door.

"I had fun, I'm glad you suggested this" I smiled

"I'm glad you agreed to come!" Cole smiled, leaning in for a kiss. My breath hitched at he lack of space between as he sealed the gap in between our lips. We shared a long, passionate kiss to end the night. When we pulled away, I kept my eyes close for a few seconeds as the taste of his lips lingered on mine.   

"Goodnight, Cole"

"Goodnight, Caitlyn"
