But... She's a girl. (A Peyton Meyer Love Story)

Nothing Actually Happened.

*Alexandria's POV*

I walked home thinking about what just happened. I couldn't even process it really. Were we about to kiss? Was that really about to happen? I couldn't have imagined it, right? I mean,  he did lean in first. Right?

I got inside and walked past Vinny. He asked how practice was and I was so deep in thought that I almost didn't hear him. I answered with a simple, "fine," before heading upstairs.  After dropping off my stuff, I went to the bathroom and was finally able to clear my mind while I was in the shower.

But, of course, that didn't last long. Once I stepped out, I grabbed my towel and the texture of it reminded me of the cloth I used to wipe off Peyton's chest. His broad, muscular defined che— Wait, what? Snap out of it, Alex.

Boy, do I wish it was this easy to forget about. It would sure as hell make my life easier.

I figured that since I couldn't stop thinking about it , that maybe I should stop fighting that and just call the girls to about it with them, see what they think of the situation. I got dressed and grabbed my phone, opening the group chat in Messages.

Me: Guys, I have some news.

Tori: Ooh, spill!

Skylar: Oh, yeah... tell us!

Dani: It's about Peyton, isn't it?

Tori: Well duh D, who else would it be about?

Dani: I don't know...

Me: Okay, let me tell it already.

Skylar: Just tell us then!

Me: Peyton and I...

Dani: Alex!

Me: Ok, ok, Peyton and I almost kissed.

Skylar: What?!

Dani: Really?!

Tori: Wait, why 'almost'? What happened

Skylar: Oh yeah ^^

Me: Well, he leaned in and I leaned in then his mom came to get him

Skylar: Oh moms... smh

Me: Haha

Me: But what should I do though? I can't stop thinking about it and we didn't even kiss!

Tori: Awww, Alex

Skylar: Do you think you guys are gonna go out now?

Me: Well no, I mean, I don't think so.

Dani: Do you want to?

Me: I don't even know. It all just happened so fast. One second I was mad at him, then next we're nearly kissing.

Tori: Well, I think you should talking to him about it

Me: No, I cant. It'll be so awkward if I do

Dani: Well it'll probably be awkward if you don't, too, so...

Skylar: Yeah, So you might has well have it be awkward AND get something out of it

Me: Ugh! I really hate it when you guys are right.

Me: I'll talk to him tomorrow and if he actually likes me and it wasn't just an 'in the moment'
 thing, I guess we'll take it somewhere.

Dani: Yay!

"Aleexx!! Dinner's ready!" I heard Vinny call from downstairs. He was always interrupting my chat sessions.

Me: I'll talk to you guys later.

I set my phone down and walk downstairs, meeting Vinny at the kitchen table. We sat down and started eating dinner. "So anything interesting happen today?"

He asked me. 'Shoot,' I thought, 'He knows. He's probably gonna kill him.' I tried to stay calm though and just shook my head.

"Nah, everything was pretty basic. We just, well practiced." I told him and he nodded. I let out a slight sigh of relief once he changed the subject. The only problem was I still couldn't really focus on what he was saying because now I was thinking about how our talk would go tomorrow. I really hope things work out.

*Peyton's POV*

The car ride home with my mom was so awkward. She kept trying to engage in conversation and ask about Alex and how she interrupted us.

"Nothing was happening mom. I swear. She hit me with the ball, and she iced it for me." I told her. I technically wasn't lying, Nothing Actually Happened. 

"She seemed to be pretty close to you when I came by."

"Well yeah, um, the ice pack was leaking so she cleaned it off for me. She had to get close so she could see."

"Yeah Okay, P. Whatever you say... What do you want for dinner?" She asked. I was so glad that this talk was over. I was afraid it would lead to a whole 'birds and the bees' talk.

Okay, I know this chapter is short and it's weak but I wanted to give you guys a little something because I've left you hanging for so long and I said I'd put something up this week... So, let's just call it a preview chapter or something

I'm so sorry. I really tried to finish and have it up but It's just been so hard. All my teachers are/were trying to fit in a bunch of tests and assessments before Thanksgiving break and it's annoying and stressful. I'm gonna try to have the next part  up by Wednesday.

Don't hate me, I love you guys.
