The Day I Found True Love

Chapter 3: Butterflies

I was so excited to be taking Sophie home. My mom asked her some questions about her old school and why she moved. My mom seemed to be quite intrigued about me having a friend...I guess its because she knows I don't usually socialize with people.

As soon as we got home, my mom said she has to head back to work...which left me and Sophie alone, I was really nervous but excited at the same time.

Sophie and I had some homework to do But we weren't feeling it right now. We ended up taking our shoes off and watching a movie with some delicious microwaveable popcorn.

We were watching the fault in our stars, and I couldn't help myself as I stared at Sophie as she watched the movie with her facial expressions changing as The movie proceeded. When she smiled I felt butterflies in my tummy..and I could see her eyes sparkle she looks so beautiful and peaceful.

During the movie I noticed Sophie was eating all the popcorn herself so I grabbed it from her, and she instantly looked at me with sock in her eyes.

"You weren't sharing so I resorted to plan B" she just stared at me dumbfound and for the first time I laughed at her. "You could have asked, but because you didn't..." She didn't finish her sentence, but as soon as looked her way she started to tickle me I couldn't control my laughter I was shaking aimlessly as I struggled to catch my breath. The popcorn was spilled all over the couch and floor and all I could do was laugh.

She ended up sitting right next me after she got her revenge and my arm was brushing hers. I felt all tingly and warm on the inside...I have no idea what's going on with me. I tried really hard to focus on the movie but I couldn't she was sitting right next to me in such close proximity.

My body was literally on fire and I couldn't take it anymore I stood up abruptly, and she looked at me questionably. "Oh..umm... I need to go to the bathroom, I'll be right back, I promise" I had to lie again...this is really becoming hard.

I went to my room and just fell on my bed to try and cool off. I think I was slowly drifting off to sleep So I just got up before I left Sophie alone in this house.I got back Sophie had tears in her eyes... She was so focused on he movie I didn't even realize she was crying about the movie.

I gave her a awkward side hug and told her that its going to be okay and all I could hear was a silent sniffle. This close proximity is going to be the death of me. She finally stopped crying, I obviously wasn't paying attention to the movie because I had no idea why she was crying in the first place.

"He's going to die" I heard her say through her raspy voice from crying. I didn't know what to say...I wasn't paying attention too the movie. I just rubbed soothing circles on her back to try and calm her down.

She took my limp hand and started to squeeze it...when she did that I felt like I was going to faint from her just holding my hand. I think I was shaking but I'm so glad she didn't notice, because she was more focused on the movie.

I saw a tear fall from her eye again and I asked her if I should put the movie off because I hated seeing her cry. She just shook her head, and turned to me...our faces were so close I could feel her warm breath fan my cheek. I could feel her eyes burning into mine, I couldn't kiss her, she would freakout so I did the only think I could and hugged her...I let out a breath was holding for a really long time.

It seemed like the hug distracted her from the movie because her tears stopped completely along with the cute sniffle that I found myself admiring. I breathed in her cherry scent that made me shut my eyes.

I couldn't find it in me to let her go, I don't even know if she was still hugging me back I was too engulfed in her amazing scent. I finally gained my composure and found it in me to let go...I have no idea how I did it, but I did.

The movie seemed to be over, we really know how to make time pass. It was about four thirty and Sophie's dad still wasn't here, she seemed to be a little tense because her dad was suppose to fetch her at four.

I decided to watch YouTube videos with her, because I know she loves those and it eased her stress. She wasn't joking when she said she loves watching YouTube videos I couldn't help but to notice how perfect she looked when she smiled.

I wonder if she knows how beautiful she is, she has the most perfect cheekbones and her smiles is so bright it can make anyone's day, she has the most amazing brown eyes which always seem to be so glossy and I love how beautiful her hair perfectly frames her face, it just makes you want to run your fingers through it.

Her dad finally came at five, she didn't even notice her dad was here because she was too engrossed in watching Shane Dawson trying vegan food.

When she heard the knock on the door she got such a big fright, I couldn't help but laugh she was really cute sometimes. I got the door for her dad and he was dressed in formal clothing...I wonder what his occupation is.

Sophie was getting all her stuff ready and she was putting her shoes on while I spoke to her dad...he's  a really funny guy and I can see where Sophie gets her hazel eyes from.

As they were leaving Sophie gave me a big hug and said she will see me tomorrow. "I left my number on a piece of paper in your room, so like if you want to chat just send me a message"when she said that I think my face lit up like a Christmas tree. I heard her laugh silently and waved at her as she left with her dad.

Today was one off the best days off my life, I hope I have more days like this with Sophie, she's such an amazing person to be around and you never get tired of being around her. I really can't wait too see her tomorrow.
