Jody's POV

Today I would finally get this fucking cast off! I had to walk around with this thing for so long now and I was really tired of it. Especially when I wanted to take a shower, then I always had to cover it in a plastic bag and that was really annoying. It also impeded me at playing piano. It wasn't easy but it I could still do it, though. And now the summer was coming slowly and it was getting hotter. You can't imagine how hot your skin gets under this cast! 
I was waiting in the waiting room of the hospital until a nurse finally shouted my name. I literally jumped up from the chair and followed her into a room. She told me to sit on the chair and that the doctor would come any moment. So I waited there alone for this doctor. Then, after 15 minutes, the doctor finally came to take my cast off. You know what? He did it with a fucking saw. This fucking saw came so fucking close to my skin! Okay, there was some metal between the saw and my skin, but STIIIILL! He could've cut my whole body into two with that mini-saw! But I survived it and could leave the hospital without any unplanned cuts of the murder-saw. It felt so weird without this white thing on my wrist, especially when I was driving home. Actually everything felt weird.

I parked my car in my driveway and walked in my house. To my surprise it wasn't empty. 
"GOAAAAAL!" Jaime yelled and jumped up from the couch with the controller in his hand. Vic was sitting next to him and buried his face in his hands. I stood there for some seconds and watched them.
"How the fuck did you get inside and what the fuck are you doing here?!" I almost yelled at them.
"Oh, hi Jody!" Jaime greeted me. Both of them acted like it was the most normal thing in the world sitting in a friend's house and playing FIFA. I mean, what the fuck?! Neither I invited them nor I gave them the keys to my house. Though, they became really close friends.
"Your neighbour gave us your keys. We just needed to tell her, that we're friends" Vic explained and took the keys out of his pocket and waved with them.
"Give 'em back! Dammit, I'm never gonna give Mrs. Stevens my keys again" I mumbled to myself, walked to Vic and took the keys. I thought that I could trust Mrs. Stevens! I gave her the keys in case there's a emergency or something else.
"How was it in the hospital?" Jaime asked and seemed to start the next FIFA game. 
"I almost got killed with a saw!" I said and sat next to Vic.
"You got what?" Vic asked confused, not looking away from their game.
"Almost killed by a saw. Well, at least it felt like it. The doctor removed the cast with a freakin' saw which came so close to my body!" I explained. My explanation seemed to amuse them, because they burst out laughing.
"That's not funny! I could've died!" I said horrified and crossed my arms. 
"Yes, sure...of course!" Vic said and risked a quick look away from his game to look at me instead.
"Just a reminder: this is my house. So I could kick you out any moment!" I reminded them. I felt so mighty right now because I really just could tell them to leave.
"But we all know that you'll never do that" Jaime said, focused on his game. 
"Screw you" I mumbled, because I knew that he was right. Even if I wanted to, I could never kick 'em out. They became too close friends through those months I know them. In this time I've spend a lot of time with them. Especially with Vic. Since my wrist breaking, we went out together almost every night. And on all of them, we were so freaking close to kiss. But we never did. I don't know if it's because of me and my fears or if it's because of him and his...whatever. I wanted to kiss him, so bad actually. Cassie told me like everyday that I should go over at his and just kiss him out of nowhere. But I'm not a person for something like this. Even if the urgency to kiss him is so strong these days. I could just jump him and kiss him right there. But Jaime's here, so that would be a bit awkward. Damn, stop staring at his lips while thinking about kissing him! Jaime seemed to notice this tense between me and Vic's lips, because he suddenly paused the game and got up from the couch. Jaime always knew that I kinda like Vic.
"Sorry guys, but I have to leave now" he added while he stretched his arms.
"What? Where?" Vic asked and frowned.
"Uh...you know...doing some...stuff" Jaime tried to find something. You tried, Jaime. You tried really hard.
"Everything okay?" Vic asked and raised his eyebrow. 
"Y-yeah! Okay, so...see y'a around" Jaime said, waved and left my house. 
"Well that was...weird" Vic said and looked at me. I nodded and smiled at him.
"Soooo, what now?" he asked me when he turned everything off.
"I actually wanted to go in the park, before you broke in my house" I said, got up and walked in the kitchen. I heard that Vic was following me.
"Let's go to the park then" he suggested and smiled at me. I agreed and we took a football along to the park. It wasn't far away from my house, so we didn't need a car. The weather was really beautiful. The sun shined brighter than ever and the flowers bloomed. Children were playing everywhere which reminded me of my own childhood.
Vic and me arrived at the park and walked to the football fields. (A/N: or soccer.... That game where you kick the ball with your feet!) 
"Okay, the one who has first 3 goals is getting an ice cream from the looser" Vic explained the rules and put the ball on the ground. I stayed in the goal and agreed with a short "okay". Vic took the ball with his feet until he was close enough to the goal and then kicked it. I jumped to the right and caught the ball, causing Vic to fall on his knees and yell. I laughed loudly like an evil thief and brought the ball back to the middle. This time Vic was in the goal and I played the ball. I must say, I'm totally not good at sports in general, so I thought that I would lose. But then I first scored the first and then the second goal. Vic had two, too. For the next goal, we decided that both of us were in the middle and should try to get the ball at 3. So we stood in front of the ball and each other, focusing on the ball and counting to three.
"1, 2,..." Vic counted and had a smile on his face. He just wanted to say the '3' but I leaned forward, kissed his lips and shouted "3!". He seemed frozen from the sudden kiss I gave him, so I could take the ball and shoot a goal easily. 
"YEEEES! I WOOON! YOU OWE ME ICE CREAM!" I screamed and walked back to him with my arms in the air. He managed to catch himself and turn around.
"That was cheating!" he shouted.
"No, it wasn't. Now buy me ice cream" I said and stuck my tongue out. He shook his head and put his arm over my shoulders. 
"I would've bought you ice cream anyway" he bluffed while we walked to the ice cream stand. I rolled my eyes, but couldn't get off the awesome feeling when I kissed his lips. Yeah, it was to distract him and he probably didn't feel anything but my world was full of butterflies right now.
The guy from the ice cream stand was an older man and kept this huge smile on his face.
"Have a nice day, sweet couple!" the man wished us. My cheeks went immediately red and Vic took his arm away from my shoulders.
"Oh...n-no...w-we're not - we're not together" Vic stammered awkwardly.
"Yes, sure" the man said and it sounded sarcastically. We didn't say anything more. We were walking through the whole park while eating the ice cream. No one really knew what to say.
"I wanted to tell you something" Vic broke the silence, when we both finished the ice cream and seemed alone in this huge park. He stopped walking, so I did the same and turned to him.
"I really enjoyed those last days with you. It was so much fun and you're such an awesome girl. I don't think that I've ever met a girl like you. You're truly unique and that in such an amazing way. I showed you almost every restaurant in the city I know, because I wanted and want to spend as much time as possible with you" he told and had a cute rose colour on his cheeks. My smile went wider and wider with every word he said and I felt how my cheeks did the same as his.
"And I wanted to wait to ask you this, because I didn't know when the right time is, but I think it's now here. I really like you, Jody. More than a friend. And... do you wanna be my girlfriend?" he asked and looked into my eyes. I can't say what I felt in this moment. Pure happiness, excitement and maybe love. I immediately wrapped my arms around his neck and pulled his lips closer to mine until they met. We moved our lips in perfect sync, before I pulled away and smiled at him.
"I'd love to be your girlfriend" I answered his question and he immediately had the biggest smile ever on his lips. He put his forehead against mine and kissed my lips again. The feeling of kissing him was like the best thing in the whole world. If I'm honest, I waited for this moment since I first met him. It felt like my stomach couldn't take anymore butterflies and my whole body was shivering, in a good way. I never wanted to end this moment. We were kissing since like a minute now, so we had to pull away to catch our breath. His cute and pierced nose touched mine and our eyes met.
"Dinner?" he asked me. I couldn't stop smiling at him and pecked his lips.
"Of course. I'm starving" I said. He wrapped his arm around my waist and we walked through the park.
"Where are we going this time?" I asked. As he said, he almost showed me every restaurant in San Diego.
"My house. I'm gonna cook something for you. But first we have to go to the grocery store and buy what I need" he told and kissed the top of my head.
"You can cook?" I asked surprised. He never told me that he can cook, he was just always enthused about his Mom's cooking.
"Duh! I'm Mexican" he said and I laughed. We arrived at his car and drove to the next grocery store. He parked his car in a parking lot and we walked in the store. I followed him with the trolley and he put everything he needed inside. Through the ingredients, I tried to figure out what he was gonna cook for us.
"Tacos!" I shouted and pointed with my finger at him. The people around us gave me dirty looks and I kind of apologized to them for making noise. Vic walked back to he and kissed my cheek.
"Exactly" he added and walked away for searching the last missing ingredients.
We left the store with everything we needed and packed everything in his car, before we sat yourselves in it and he drove us to his house.

Vic's POV

I carried all the bags inside while Jody was searching in my CD collection for good music.
"Uh, you have an Arctic Monkeys CD!" she cheered and put the CD in the player. The first song 'Brainstorm' filled the room and and she sang along to the guitar lines. I unpacked the bags and started with the cooking. Jody sat on a counter and swung her legs in the rhythm.
"See you later, elevator!" she sang along. I smiled and continued preparing the tacos for us. When the next song 'Teddy Picker' came on, she jumped up from the counter and started dancing around in the kitchen. She really knew how to move her body and her singing was actually really good. She seemed happier than ever and that made me the happiest man on earth. Having her as my girlfriend was the best feeling ever. And the fact that I can kiss her now everytime I want, is even better. Jody kept dancing and stealing ingredients from the counters.
When I finished everything, I put it on the diner table and Jody immediately sat down.
"Finallyyyy! I'm so hungry" she said and smiled bright.
"Mh, that's really good!!" she complimented when she took the first bite of a taco.
"Told ya I can cook!" I said. Jody really seemed to enjoy that meal, which made me even happier. We're just some hours together now and I already ask myself how I got so lucky. Her smile is the cutest thing ever and she's so happy. I know that I like her since a long time. Actually since like our third date I felt this happy and loving feeling. I want to be hers forever. 

After the dinner, and like thousand compliments from Jody for my cooking, we lay on the couch and watched a movie. She had her head on my chest and I had my arm wrapped around her.
"I'm so happy" she mumbled in my chest. I stroked her head and kissed her forehead.
"Me, too" I whispered in her ear. I felt how that made her body shiver and I laughed lightly. This day felt like the best day of my whole life. I finally asked her and she said yes. She was mine. I could spend everyday with her just sitting around and watching movies or listening to music.
I looked down at her and saw, that she fell asleep. And the fact that she fell asleep kinda on me, was just amazing. This feeling was beyond words. I was falling for this girl, really hard. But I mean, just look at her! Her smile is bright and cute. Her eyes are brown like chocolate and shiny. And her personality was the best thing about her. You could make her laugh so easily, but she still didn't laugh because of everything. When you know her, she can be really thoughtful but bubbly on the other side. She's so smart, she could make a Bachelor in everything when she wanted. Well, that's my opinion, I don't know how she sees it. Definitely, she's amazing in any way and I couldn't get luckier.
