Journal Entry # 7 Tuesday 2019
I finally figured out what was happening to me. I was falling for Orion. I felt happy, and scared. I never knew what love really was, or how it really was supposed to be.
**
Today after school, Orion put his arm around me again. I hugged him, and closed my eyes. I had told him over text that I had felt it. My heart began to beat in my chest. I was sure he could feel it, because I heard his, through his shoulder, speed up a bit. For some reason, feeling or hearing his heartbeat gave me comfort. I tried to think of how he might be feeling. I let him kiss my lips, and I kissed back. (Or at least tried to)
It was amazing. An indescribable feeling I've never felt with anyone else. I'd of course felt that feeling any-other time he kissed me, but I never recognized it before that moment.
"I love you." He said. I felt pings in my heart. "I love you too." I whispered to him. Not that I was embarrassed to say it in public, I was just scared of saying it out loud, at all.
I spotted the versa mom drove, and trotted over, waving to Orion, as we left in separate cars.
