POV: Milo

Caro and I didn't get much of a chance to talk about the kiss during and after the dinner, but we are going to see each other today. Yesterday after dinner Owen said we should all hang out today on a group chat I have with him, Mason, Ana and Caro. Mason of course gladly suggested that we should hang out at my house, which everyone agreed to, so I couldn't say no.

I heard the doorbell, I knew it was Caro, she's always the first one to arrive, my mom got there first and opened the door, Caro and her mom entered the house. Caro and I went upstairs while our moms talked in the living room.

-I always get here early- Caro said sitting on the corner of my bed.

-They just get here late- I started playing with my guitar.

-What are we even going to do?

-We'll probably just watch a movie- After I said that we just stayed in silence for a while- It doesn't have to be awkward now, you know?- I said while leaving my guitar and sitting next to her.

-I know, sorry- She avoided my gaze- but it is going to be awkward because I'm awkward, live with that- I laughed.

-Oh I know- We stayed in silence again.

-Did you mean what you said yesterday? About also wanting to kiss me.

-I did.

-Why?

-What do you mean why, Caro?- I laughed again - because I like you.

-But you never said anything.

-Good you're so annoying! - I teased- I didn't say anything because unlike you I was scared of ruining our friendship- I joked.

- What do you mean "unlike" me?! I couldn't sleep yesterday. I honestly thought you only said that to make me feel better.

-You are so dramatic! Here, stop with your weird overthinking habit- I held her face with one of my hands and pulled her in for a kiss. She stopped it and tried to say something- No Caro shut up.

With my other hand I touched her hands, they were shaking a little bit, so I decided to take one of them and put it on my neck, and then put my own on her waist. The kiss was slow, I noticed her getting more relaxed and closer to me, I didn't even notice when my mom got into the room until she spoke.

-Guys!- She didn't sound mad, just a bit annoyed. We immediately broke the kiss- Caro's mom went to her house she'll be back by 8 pm.

-Ok, thanks Camryn- Caro said with her face red, which made me chuckle.

-Milo can you come downstairs for a sec- She spoke serious.

- Absolutely - I basically ran behind her.

-What is going on between the two?- She spoke once we were at the kitchen.

-We kissed yesterday, before we had dinner, turns out we like each other, how cool, right?- I tried to laugh to ease the tension.

-Look, we could all see it come. I understand that you're teens and you're hormonal or whatever, but I cannot allow you guys to do "stuff" behind our backs, her mom is trusting us to take care of her and we don't want to break that trust- I realized where this is going.
