my heart was still racing after el kissed my cheek but i tried to hide it. I wanted to talk about that thing we said we would talk about in lersnon but i don't think it was a good timing.

After 10 minutes of the boys still playing dnd el and i got bored so we asked the adults if we could go for a walk around the neighborhood . They hesitated at first but then they approved.

She started talking about california, her news, many stuff. Stuff she had never seen nedlre and i loved how excited she was talking about those things. For example, she got excited when went to the beach for the first time

"it was so fun! I was scared at first because im scared of the water-" she said. "why?" i asked. She didn't respond as i realized. Because of her childhood, the bathtub.. "oh uh-im sorry i shouldn't-" i apologized quickly

"no it's okay, don't worry about it, im alright now" she softly said giving me a smile. I smiled back yet still feeling guilty and bad.

"after some minutes of me getting used to the water, jonathan learnt me how to swim! I mean i wasn't very good but i learnt the basics, so i don't drown at least" she giggled

"thats awesome el, im proud of you" i said smiling. She smiled and looked down. "oh also! "she remembered something and gasped excitingly which i founded adorable.

"At some point we swam a bit further and will told me he saw some fish, he handed me those-what are they called? uh something like glasses but you use them underwater-" she struggled to find the word

"googles" i said. "yes! that! so yeah, they were cute not gonna lie, ive never seen those before, in real life at least" she said smiling. I love how she gets excited for such little things, i find it cute

Because she is now a teenager and she sees the real world since she lost her childhood by that physcho dr.brenner.

"sorry its not a big deal.."she apologized. I frowned. "you don't have to apologize, i love listening to you talking about things you like, im here to listen" i said as she looked at me with a sweet smile

i think that sounded clingy..but it slipped out. "oh okay then" she said. "you can tell me anything too" she said softly as i nodded.

After chatting more, we got slightly tired from walking so we decided to sit on a bench at a park i usually go to. Surprisingly, it was empty

"there's no one here, parks are always full of people in california "el said. "yeah they usually come on the weekends or later in the afternoon, now its 4 pm" i said as she nodded

"oh um also.." she said after we talked about some other random things. "yes?" i said. "Can we talk about the 'thing' ?" she asked shyly. "im not sure its a good time it's been holding me all day and i wanna talk about it-" she said

i then realized what she was talking about and began to feel nervous. "oh uh yeah that, yeah i wanted to talk about it as well" i admitted. She looked away as she took a deep breath

It seemed like she was nervous too. "i-i dont know how you felt about it but i want to be honest with you.." she started. I nodded,motioning her to continue

She finally looked at me in the eyes nervously but then looked away. "I-i like you max, as more than a friend..i know im not supposed to feel like that since we're both girls but i cant fight that feeling..im sorry i know you said you didn't mean to lean in and don't feel the same way-" she said quickly looking away nervously

as if i would scold her or something. Her words melted my heart but also broke me because she thought i didn't feel the same way all this time when we got separated, when she moved to california

I cut her off by leaning in and kissing her. It was impulsive..she seemed shocked for a second but then kissed back. I felt millions of butterflies in my stomach and sparks all over my body. It was a great feeling that i will never forget

I'ven never felt like this towards anyone. No matter how much i deny it, i finally have to admit that those feelings towards my best friend are certainly not platonically

You don't feel this way towards your friends, the urge to kiss them, to hold their hand, hug them and love or..like them like that. I'm not sure if i love her,it's too soon to know for sure but a party of me does
