Hidden Truths

Chapter 11

Nicole's POV

WHAT THE HELL WAS I THINKING?!!! The pressure was too much, and - and I just cracked. Ok maybe she didn't hear it, maybe it just slipped her mind. Oh who am I kidding she definitely heard it. Oh fuck, whhhyyyy?!!

"Nicooollee, are ya still there?" Stella laughed.

"Um, uh, uh." She was still in my lap and was hanging in my neck.

"Come on. Wake up. You still have to ask me to be your girlfriend." Wait.. WHAT?! Time out, pause, and rewind. I looked at her and by now I was probably blushing. Big time. Did this just happen? Am I dreaming?

"Slap me" I said.

"What?"

"Slap me, so I can stop dreaming."

"Oh, but I can do something so much better." Stella leaned in and kissed me. Again. "Did that wake you up?"

"Um, yeah yeah." I quickly said as I looked away. My face was practically glowing red.

"So I'm still waiting for the question." she reminded. I looked at her, confused. She glanced at our position and looked at me with a 'really?' expression. Ok. Breathe.

"D-D-Do you w-want to be m-my g-g-girl-" I stopped I couldn't continue. My heart is beating so fast, I seriously think I can die from it.

"It wasn't exactly what I was looking for but yes. I will be your girl." Stella giggled. Her smiled lit up the entire room and her giggle was like the sound of the angel. Ya know what. Fuck it.

I grabbed her and went for her lips. She still taste like sweet strawberries. I tried my best to be gentle, but I've waited 4 years for this and I will not past this chance up.

Stella's POV

FINALLY! She shoots she scores. Seriously this better not be dreaming, cause if it was then this would've been a sick joke. But the flustered and blushing Nicole made it too cute to be a dream. And don't even ask what just happened cause I have no idea where all that confidence came from. I just said whatever came naturally. Good thing I did too cause I finally got my girl. 

Shouldn't we go on a date first though? OMG, we haven't gone on a date yet. Guess I got caught up in the moment. Speaking of which, where's our teacher. Not that I wanted them to be here, I was just curious. Hold up, almost lost my train of though. Now where were we, oh right the date. 

"Hey Nicole?"

"Hhmm?"

"I was wandering, ya wanna go somewhere Friday?" Nicole looked at me like I was crazy.

"Um I have plans that day and so do you." She replied with a smirk. 

"I do?"

"Let me remind you, tutoring. Ring a bell?" Oh shoot. I totally forgot.

"But I wanna go on a date with you." I whined. I was thoroughly disappointed. I really want to go on a date with Nicole. I would have consider the tutor thing a date but with Lilly and Casper there, I don't think that would be appropriate.

"Hmm, how about we go on a study date? I'll try to occupy Lilly and Casper to do something else, while we can enjoy each other's company." she suggested.

"Study? That doesn't sound fun."

"Don't worry I'll think of something," she chuckled.

"Well, then I will look forward to our date Ms. Jennings." I said jokingly.
