High School Love (WxW)

Chapter 10 I Happy

It was a Thursday.

I woke up to my obnoxious alarm.

I groaned, then turned it off. I sat up and stretched as I yawned.

Today was the day that I was going to ask Beth out.

I was both excited and nervous.

I smelled pancakes.

My stomach growled with hunger.

I lifted the soft, warm blankets off me and left the bed.

I felt cold and would much rather curl up in a cocoon with my blanket and lie on my bed, but I had to get up.

I left my room and walked into the dining room.

The table had 3 empty plates, 3 forks, maple syrup, and whipped cream.

My mum was already sitting down.

"Come take a seat. Your mother's just making a batch of pancakes." She said.

I pulled out a chair and sat down next to her. I tried to wait patiently for her and the pancakes.

It was a minute later.

Mother came in holding a plate with a massive stack of pancakes.

I do eat a lot.

She put them on the table.

I grabbed a fork and used it to grab lots of pans. I then proceeded to put on lots of maple syrup and whipped cream.

My mums were watching with amusement in their eyes.

My mums grabbed a few pancakes each and put maple syrup and whipped cream on them.

"I swear she gets it from her father, " my mother said, hinting at my ability to eat a lot.

My mum and I laughed.

I never met my dad, but I did hear some good things about him. He's a doctor who has saved lots of lives. He's charming and caring and wants to help everyone.

It was 6 minutes later.

I finished eating.

My mums finished a while ago. They were now in the lounge room watching something on TV.

I pulled my chair out and stood up. I grabbed my plate and fork and carried them to the kitchen dishwasher.

I did my morning routine.

I was in my room, grabbing a maroon plain baggy T-shirt, black skinny jeans, black bra, black underwear, maroon socks, and black and white high tops from my closet.

I put them on my bed and got dressed.

I'm now ready.

It was 13 minutes later.

I was at school, standing in front of the locker, grabbing my history and chemistry books.

"Gday mate." I heard a familiar voice behind me.

I turned to see Beth standing, 1 hand on her bag strap and the other in a pocket, smiling. I greeted her.

"After school, do you want to go to the beach, just 2 of us?" I asked.

"Sure, I'd love to." She replied, smiling.

I smiled.

It was 6 hours later.

Beth and I were walking on the beach.

"Let's stop here," I said.

We both stopped walking.

"There's something that I wanna ask you. Will you be my girlfriend?" I asked nervously.

"Oh my gosh, yes!" She said happily, smiling.

She leaned in and kissed me.

Her breath tastes like strawberries. She did have those for lunch.

She pulled away, and we embraced for what felt like an eternity.
