What If This Storm Ends?

What If This Storm Ends? - (4)

We entered the gate to watch the movie. I honestly didn't know what movie was, but I needed to ask. If it was a scary movie I would definitely freak out.

When we went into the seats, my 3 best friends sat on the first ones. First Hailey, then Ashley, and then Sam. I sat right by Sam immediately, but then something caught my eye. The blond boy decided to sit next to me. I assumed he was Eric, because of the way he introduced himself, so to be friendlier I said,

"So..." He immediately turned around to see me. "You are Eric, right?"

He chuckled, "Yes! I am."

"Oh, okay, umm...I didn't know which one you were, but you have a face of an Eric..."

"Haha, really?"

"Yeah, you do."

He chuckled nervously, "Oh, okay" he smiled and I smiled him back.

We started to talk about everything, and he was really nice. He told me about his family and his life and I did the same. He even told me that we've met before, but I couldn't remember. He said that it was on the 14th birthday party of Josh, and I remembered him instantly.

* Flashback *

Josh was 14 and he was 14 and I was 13. I was walking towards Josh to give him his present and suddenly Eric smashed into me. He was playing American Football and he was running backwards to catch the ball, so he crashed into me. He looked so nervous and I think he blushed.

"Uh..h, I-I-I'm s-so s-orry" He said, smiling at me and stuttering.

Then I smiled at him, "No problem, don't worry."

He looked a little embarassed and looked down at the floor. I whispered a goodbye to him and I continued my way to Josh.

* End of flashback *

Eric did change a lot. He used to wear braces and he was a little shorter than me, but he still has those beautiful deep-green eyes.

Then I told him that in a few weeks I will go to the PCA academy for 1 year, and that it was sad that I was going to leave.

"Oh, really?!? So you are going too?"

My eyes went wide in surprise. Too?

"Too?" I echoed my thoughts.

"Yeah, Josh, Jesse, Logan and I were accepted and we are also going for that 1 year program." Eric said and I smiled like crazy.

I hugged him and for my surprise he hugged me back.

"I'm so glad that you guys are coming too! It's going to be so fun! Just imagine, all of us! "I said very happily.

"Yes! It's going to be so fun! But not with Josh though, he can be a little to loud sometimes. If I'm going to share my dorm with him...I'm so dead." I chuckled, "Yes, he can be a little annoying sometimes...."

Suddenly, someone grabbed my arm making me turn around, "Making new friends?" Sam whispered teasingly.

I rolled my eyes at her."Yes. He is really nice."

"Maybe, he likes you"

"Yeah, sure"

She looked at me flatly and I returned the look to her.

"Hey, do you know what movie are we watching?" I asked now turning to Eric, hoping that it wasn't a scary movie.

"50 First Dates, I've heard it's really good..."

"Oh, Okay..."

"Why, scared of horror movies?

"Is that obvious?"
