Michelles' heart almost stops beating. Nobody ever said something that sweet to her, but she tries to calm down the situation.
"You are really a good friend. I mean, we are
friends, aren't we?"
"Of course we are!" Mattheo looks at her, trying to play it cool. He smirks "friends..yes we surely are friends." He moves his leg a bit so it is closer to her body. His smile falters a little bit. He sees how her face
changes when she says that.
"I am glad to hear that. I was lately a bit
mean to you, in the library. I am sorry for
this." she smiles at him.
"Oh, you weren't that mean.." he says to play
along with her.
Mattheos POV:
I feel a bit anxious. I think about all the things I thought about you. You looked amazing in that dress, you are beautiful and I thought about kissing you.. I think I am confusing things. You aren't just a friend to me anymore.
"No worries... I can handle it... " he puts his
other leg closer to her body almost
touching it. They are still watching the black
waters of the lake.
"Mattheo? Why were you coming here? I
mean to the Lake. You couldn't know I was
here." she asks.
"Well.. I wanted to look for you, actually.."
He puts his head closer to her shoulder, and he
can smell the perfume Michelle is wearing,
it smells nice, and it reminds him of the
dance, that dance they had.. so much
happened in so little time.
"Do you mind if i ask you something?" he asks with a serious tone
"You were looking for me? Yeah, ask me anything." she answers.
He takes a few deep breaths, and he is so nervous. He looks at her for a few seconds longer, and he finally gets the courage to ask. His heart starts beating fast. He looks ahead and tries to focus on the lake ahead.
Then he looks at her and moves so they are facing each other.
"Do you have a boyfriend?" he asks very
seriously. He puts his hand next to hers
but they don't touch. He stares at her with a
serious expression.
She starts laughing a bit. "You want to know
if Fred and I are together, don't you? Because we were together at the party
No, we are not."
His heart races, but he starts smiling slightly
looking at her while she laughs. He feels
relieved in some way. He looks at her and
then at the lake.
He feels his face getting a little red. He thinks about how beautiful you smile. "Okay, so.. you are not seeing anyone right now?"
His gaze goes beyond her, watching the
sunset.
"No, I am not."
Mattheo is relieved. When they
danced, he felt something, but he would not
tell her anything because he doesn't want
to mess this up.
The rest of the sunset they are sitting still
beside one another and enjoy it. Nobody
wants to say anything.
POV Mattheo:
I have my legs next to yours as we watch
the sunset in silence. The warm touch
of the sun on my skin feels beautiful,
I can feel how comfortable I am in
your presence. No drama, no fights, no
nothing. Just peace. I look over to you and
notice how your face is in front of the sun.
Your beautiful hair flowing with the wind.
Your lips smiling even if it's a little bit.
There is no need to talk. It would break the
peaceful atmosphere.
POV Michelle:
I feel so safe now here with him. I look at him. His smile is really cute. Why did he ask these questions? Is he interested in me? No way, a boy like him would be seriously interested in me. I try to push away these thoughts. But why do I have to think about our dance so much?
