Simon's POV
(point of view)

My face smushed onto his chest. I'm barely processing what just happened. I look up, to see nothing but pure blur. I have seemed to have lost my glasses. Oh, it's still on his chest. Duh. I quickly put my glasses on and turn around.
Danny, laughing. Bastard. He's the one that pushed my sweet Sky onto the the floor.

"I see you two lovebirds, get a room! Anyways, in 5th right now, Sky said he loves you. GAYYY!"

Everyone is laughing, but not me. I try to process what he's saying, but I'm too angry. Without a second passing, my fist meets his ugly face. I felt the teeth bend against my knuckles, guess who's getting braces soon? Ha. He lets out a manly AGH, and covers his face. I quickly kick the living hell out of his leg, making him topple onto the floor. Everyone's phone is out. I ignore. Instead, I turn around and start calling Sky's name, followed by no response. He's alive, but I guess he must've hit his head hard. Poor Sky. I turn around, only to see Danny's bruised face in front of mine. Uh oh.
He turns me around, and forces me onto the wall, twisting my ARM on my back. I try to hold it in, but every time I try to move away, I end up moving my hand, sparking SO MUCH PAIN.

crack.

I can't take it. I scream. I can taste the tears in my mouth, the glasses digging into my eyes. He loosens his grip for about a second or two. That's enough. I break free, shoving him backwards, then, he does the cliché. He grabs me by my shirt, lifting me off the ground. Jesus Christ this kid is strong.
He has his clenched fist stretched back, I can see his veins popping out of his forehead. He's about to strike.

"STOP!" the voice rings in my ears, it's the teacher.

"And... Done. Your cast is done. Are you sure you don't want me to call home?"
"No it's okay."
"Well I'll call your mom and tell her that you're okay. You'll be picked up after school is out like always."
"Yes mam."
"Just sit in a chair for now."

I get off the counter, and sit in a chair that seemed to be between doorways. As if i had sat on a release button, all my classmates and acquaintances just barge in with sharpies, asking to sign my cast. I see no reason to argue, so i sit back and offer my hand. Some called me a hero, others called me Chuck Norris. Okay. After a while, im alone again. I look over to the other room.
Sky is looking at me. He still seems to be half asleep. I get up and walk over too him. I guess he didn't see my cast before, cause he looks shock. I smile at him, trying to signal that it's okay.
We have this normal conversation. I tell him how I got my arm broken. Then i remembered what Danny had said before I knocked him out. I tell Sky, but his eyes go from okay to ohh. I see his cheeks go from ghost to tomato. My heart is controlling my brain, and everything else. It's making me stand up. It's making me bend over him. It's making me kiss him on the forehead. And then I realize, it's not the heart, it's me.

"Hey mom, my friend asked if I can go to his house today. Can I please go? I finished my homework!"
"Honey I would, but it's gonna rain soon and-"
"No mom, his house is around the corner, please."
"Uh, fine. But take a jacket!"

   I zip through the door, with a light sweater. Okay i lied to my mom, sky has no idea that i'm on my way to his house. I remember where his house is. I went to his house when we were like, 5. For some Party, and the whole town was invited. I hope he remembers. Please remember. I hope so. I mean, I do have a good memory.
   Anyways, I find his house and knock on his window. Just cause, I don't want to deal with his mom. Sorry Sky's mom, but I'm in love with your son.

   He said yes... HE WANTS ME TO TEACH HIM HOW TO KISS!

"You sure? You don't have too..."
"I'm sure."

   He leans in closer. I put my hand on his check, under his ear. He does the same. Our other hands, squeezing together. Tightly.

"Ok just, let me show you, then on the next one, just do what I do."
"Okay."

   It takes about 5 kisses, for him to get it down. He's actually a REALLY good kisser. The last kiss was the best. I can't take it, I push him onto the more middle-ish area of the bed. I pin his arms and legs down. Lightly though. I don't want him to think I'm forcing. Our bodies collide. Our fingers intertwine with each other. Our tongues touch and caress each other. I don't want this moment to end, yet I don't know how he feels about this.

Skylar's POV.

   When he pinned me down onto the bed, my mind goes wild. My heart rate goes up. My self esteem. My love. And when I say everything goes up, I say everything. He kisses me in/on my mouth. My neck, and my forehead too. He stops.
His eyes, beautiful and elegant, stuck looking at mine, a tragedy.
   "Should I stop? I should've asked first." He gets off and sits on the edge of the bed, and i do the same.

   "It was a little unexpected...", i tease.
"but really, it was great. Im just a little shocked."

"Oh, aha." his hand squeezes mine again. Warmth fills my lungs.

"So um, does this make us... you know."

"If you want, I dont min—Oh man! It's already 8:30??"

"Y-yeah"

"I have to go my mom is going to be pissed and she's—"

"Dude it's fine, i'll walk you."

"I just, w-well okay. Thanks."

We hoped out the window, it stopped raining thankfully. I almost slipped and I don't know how i would be able to fall on my hands so many times in one day. We finally reach his house, and he hugs
me. h u g s me. And i watch him leave me in the wetlands. It scares me to think I have someone who likes me.

haha haha

gulp...
