Kiss Me

Chapter 1

The warm summer breeze hits my face as I step out of the car. "Where are we, Will?" I ask my classmate, who has been my friend for 7 years.
"I guess you'll just have to find out." he says as he takes my hand and pulls me out of the parking lot.
My heart beats fast as we walk closer. He took me to my favorite place, the beach. "Will...
Oh my god. I don't know what to say. You remembered."
"I wanted to take you somewhere special, remember when our parents took us here a few years ago for a weekend?"
"Of course I remember, it's when we first became really close. Afterwards we started playing in the neighborhood and at school everyday, but what is so special about today? I thought we were just going to get some ice cream or something?"
"Willow, can't I just take you to the beach to watch the sunset with you, without being suspicious?"
"Hm, not really." I say with a laugh.
We walk on the beach and move closer to the shore.
"Do you want to sit here?" he asks
"Yeah sure." I say. Trying to hide my smile I sit on the sand. What are we doing here? Why is he being so nice? Why does he look so nervous? I'm so nervous I think I might pass out. Why am I so nervous? It's not like I like him, even if I did it would ruin our friendship.
I look out at the big waves crashing, the sun is the perfect color. My favorite combination of reds, yellows, oranges, and pinks.
"Thanks for taking me here Will, the sunset is really beautiful." I say trying not to sound too nervous
"Oh yeah, it's nothing." he says with a smirk as he reaches over and grabs one of my airpods. "What are you listening to?" he asked me.
"Oh, nothing, just some Olivia Rodrigo."
"Of course" he says as he puts the airpod into his ear.
We both stare off into the sunset just silently thinking to ourselves and listening to Olivia Rodrigo.
"Can I choose the next song?" He asks when the song finishes.
"Yeah, of course you can." I say as I hand my phone to him. He unlocks my phone, opens up spotify and searches for a song up.
"What are you going to play?" I ask as I look over at my phone to try to see the song he is searching.
"You can't see yet!" he says and moves the phone away so I can't see what he is looking up.
I hear the song start playing. Oh my god what is happening right now. I hear the song Kiss Me by Sixpence None The Richer start playing.
"Willow, anytime you hear this song. I want you to think about this moment." He says
"Wha-" I try to say but before I finish he moves closer and pushes his lips onto mine.
"Remember you can't have Will without Willow." he whispers.
