Don't Go Soft (Hunter Rowland)

Slowly But, Surely

We arrive at school right when the bell rings. Heading to first class. Hey it's a study block. I plug in my earbuds playing Roses by Chainsmokers. Forty-five minutes pass. Walking up to Blake I ask "hey, you skipping with me?" "sorry babe I can't" "k" I walk away smiling. Leaving the school and calling Hunter. "Hey meet me at the park in five." "see you there." I smile hanging up and heading to the park. I arrive seeing Hunter and I smile, waving. I walk up to him "hey!" "Hey, did you skip school again?" "duh" I laugh. We walk over to the spinny thing . I hop on as he spins it. He hops on as we laugh. The thing stops spinning. "I think I'm going to puke" "not again" we laugh. He looks into my eyes taking my hands. "You're so beautiful." he whispers. Staring into his eyes, I slowly realize, I'm slowly falling in love. It hit me like a ton of bricks. I get up walking away, ending up against a tree, when I feel someone brush against me and then stand in front of me. "Hey, Rose, are you okay?" He whispers comfortingly. "Yeah" I brush it off and we walk over to the swings. I jump on the swing as he pushes me. We laugh as I jump off the swing, but I fall. I usually stick the landing, what is happening to me? Hunter runs over sticking his hand out, grabbing it he pulls me up. But, I end up really close to his face. Staring into his eyes. I couldn't help but just pressing my lips against his.
