Don't Make This Easy

3: How Did We End Up Here?

Michael POV

Holy shit.

What happened?

I'm on the floor, a gorgeous redhead is on top of me, we're touching nose.

What. Do?

"uh- Hi. What-happened?" I sputter, getting lost in the chocolate orbs.

Thank god i'm wearing jeans and not track pants today. That would make this interesting AND awkward.

"Hi,sorryiwasrunningthroughthehallstryingtomeetwithmybestfriendforlunchandranintoyouandlandedontopofyou!" She rambled. That's a trait I always liked about Jase. She always rambled. Is it weird that she's the last person I wanna see at this moment? I should probably text her, tell her I'm gonna be late.

"Hey, it's alright, things happen. Plus, I'm kinda happy it was a cute girl. It's better than the nerdy boy with a puppet." I chuckle lightly, "I'm Michael, my friend calls me Mike. Everyone else calls me cringe because of my hair."

"I'm Cat!" she said happily.

"Like the animal?" I ask, confused but intrigued.

"WHAT'S THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN?!" She shrieked. Oh no, what do I do...

"Nothing, I just mean it's cute. At my old school people used to call me a kitten for some reason," I began, not really knowing where I was going with this. "I still don't know the reason."

Then, I realized something...

"Uhh," I sputtered, nervously "we probably should get up now. I mean I enjoy you on top of me, but not in public at least." This was said followed by a nervous chuckle and my heart pretty much playing a Slipknot drum track.

"Oh," She began, looking back into my eyes. God, she makes this so hard. In more than one way. Stupid brain. "Well, I kinda like it here, but we should probably go somewhere else at another time. Yaknow, to hang out?" She asks with wide doe eyes and a smile that just made me melt.

I smile back at her, "Sure, I mean if you want to of course. I'll give you my phone so you can put your number in, and i'll send you a text." I start to reach for my phone as she starts to climb off of me.

That ended too soon...

I unlock my phone and hand it to her, and she begins to put her phone number in and even take an adorable picture of herself before handing my phone back.

"Well," she begins a hint of sadness in her voice, "It was nice meeting you. Send me a text and we'll hang out soon. And sorry for bumping into you again!""No worries," I say, smiling, "I see it as a good thing, I mean if would've been better without the pain. I chuckle.

"I'll see you around?" she looks at me. My heart does not want to stop beating, does it?

"Yeah," I say, voice shaking, "I'll send you a text and we'll hang out soon." I smile, for what feels like the 300th time today. God my cheeks hurt.

I look at her and get lost into her eyes, and soon I'm getting drawn into her.

Wow, this is better than the movies.

Jasey POV

God I hope Mikey's ok. I've sent him 12 messages and called him 3 times.

Do you really need an update as to how those went?

No answer. Of course.

I don't know what I should've expected though. The idiot never answers his phone.

It's like he-

Oh my god...
