Dream Come True (Dreams Series Spin-off)

Chapter 8

Semi edited.

~~~Wesley's pov~~~

I load all my groceries on the conveyor belt to the cashier can scan my items.

As I'm loading more items I notice the candy section in front of my and when I see the twix bars I instantly think of Mackenzie.

A smile grows on my face when I think of her.

I still can't believe that not only are we in the process of rekindling our friendship, but she also works for the team I play for.

I'm happy that she made her dream come true.

It was really nice catching up with her and I really wish we had more time the other night, but now that I think about it I'm glad that I got called away because now we have the time to catch up and hang out alone.

It didn't take long to realize that I am attracted to Mackenzie and as much as I want to be her friend I also want to see if we have potential to become something more.

Back then we had a decently close friendship, but with me dating Allie at the time we didn't have the opportunity to get closer so now we have that chance.

I always enjoyed our times together whether we'd just play a game of catch or play video games I always enjoyed her company and that hasn't changed.

If it wasn't for her having to keep working I probably would've hung out with her in her office.

This attraction for her was surprising because even though I acknowledged she was attractive when we were friends, I didn't expect to feel the way I do about her now.

A few minutes in talking to her I started to get butterflies and feel nervous around her.

It was like I was transported back to highschool and I had a crush on a girl.

I mean I did think she was cute in highschool and probably would've asked her out if it wasn't for my focus on baseball.

On my way to her office earlier my palms started to get all sweaty and I had to try and calm myself down.

She nearly took my breath away in the burgundy dress she had on.

It may have just been a simple dress, but on her it looked so beautiful.

If it showed any more skin though I probably would've gotten hard and my gym shorts would do nothing to hide my attraction to her.

I'm definitely going to test the waters because I caught her checking me out quite a few times during dinner so there's definitely a possibility.

When I get home from grocery shopping I pick up my phone and type something out, then read what I have and erase it.

I go back and forth with myself typing and erasing the texts, not liking anything I have.

Stop being a chicken and just text her.

Before I let my mind win the battle I type something out and hit send before I can stop myself for the 8th time.

Oh shit, what have I just done.

I put my phone on the counter and pace back and forth in my kitchen waiting for a response.
