'WHAT?!' Nina screamed when I told her my conversation with Tony. 'oh shit, this is my fault, I should have text him and told him everything was ok and I didn't and now oh god.' She looked distressed.

'Hey, hey Nina, it's not your fault!' I pulled her into a hug trying to Comfort her. 'it was my fault for assuming the wrong thing in the first place and shouting at him.'

'I feel like shit.' she admitted.

'Me too but I chatted to him about it and he said he wouldn't do it again and I believe him, he was just in a bad way last night worrying his life would go back to the way it had been before you stuck up for him.' I assured her rubbing her back for comfort.

'You're too good for me Vic. I should never have even got him topless and this would never have happened. I'm such a bad person.' I could hear her voice cracking.

I hated seeing Nina like this. Noone is perfect to everyone but she was perfect to me. I understood why her and Tony had gotten topless and I didn't blame her one bit. I had just gotten mad at the time because I thought it was something it wasn't. I still had no right to call Tony a loser. There was no way I was going to let Nina tell me that I was too good for her. Id never met anyone quite like her. If it was anyone else i had bumped into and spilt my apple juice over I would have just leaned down helped them up apologised and moved on but there was something about her....

She didn't get mad or fussy that I had tipped juice down her like loads of girls would and when I had helped her up she looked me in the eye and I can't even describe what I felt fully. My heart started to flutter and my stomach turned in circles, she had the most beautiful dark brown eyes that gleamed even though they were such a dark down. Her eyes contrasted magnificently with her streaky blonde hair which just made her even more attractive than I thought at first sight. She had been polite and kind about me bumping into her and i knew from that moment that I wouldn't be able to stop thinking about her. As she walked along side me our hands just centimetres apart, the urge to reach that extra bit closer so our skin was touching was almost unbearable and I was so close to giving in to the urge when she ran off to save Tony. I had watched as she punched Josh and it made a smile spread across my face but when I saw him lean back the anger that filled me was indescribable. No. I wouldn't let anyone harm her. That was the moment I knew she was someone I could never let go of but I had to get her first.

When I had gotten up the courage to ask her to meet me with Jaime and Tess, I was secretly hoping that they would leave us alone and go off and do their own thing but I hadn't expected them to so when they did I was slightly unprepared, nonetheless, I tried to hide that. I was going crazy being so close to Nina yet not being able to let my skin touch hers. I could smell her faint aroma of vanilla from where I stood and it was driving me insane. The need for my skin to touch hers was unreal and I couldn't resist so I swung my arm over her shoulders to make it slightly more casual. My skin prickled when I touched her and it was everything I had hoped for. I longed to hold her hand but I resisted. 

 

When she grabbed my arm to pull me aside it was as if the world was suddenly so much more alive, so much more bright at her touch. She pulled me around a corner so I was so close yet so far away from her. I couldn't cope any longer. I lifted my hand away from the wall and lifted it so it pushed against the soft skin on her chin. It was as if an electric wire ran through me. I had looked her in her beautiful eyes and just couldn't keep myself away. I was kicking myself inside, telling myself to get a grip but she was there, luring me in. I leaned down but what I felt wasn't her lips, I looked and found her hand shoved in front of her mouth. I couldn't believe what I had done, I had just tried to kiss someone who wasn't at all interested in me yet I was practically in love with her already. I couldn't stay there any longer but she grabbed my hand and explained. And that was when I was absolutely certain. The kiss was passionate and full of affection and care. It was like nothing I'd never felt before.

'Nina don't ever say that. You're the best person I know and you'll always be good enough for anyone, but I doubt anyone will ever be good enough for you.' I stroked her hair smiling at my thoughts. She had chosen me.

'You are.' I leaned down and kissed her gently on the lips, not going too far, I didn't want to ruin in moment. The kiss was soft and calm unlike before when they had been rushed and passionate. There was a long pause where neither of us moved and our lips just rested only just brushing against one another's.

Nina and I walked back hand in hand in silence but it wasn't awkward or uncomfortable, it was perfect.

'Thank you.' I whispered quietly so she could only just hear as I looked down to my feet while we were walking.

'For what?' She replied gently squeezing my hand in between her fingers.

'For picking me.' I blushed.

'There was no picking to be done Vic, since I moved, all I could really think about was you. There was no other option so thank you Vic, for choosing me, out of everyone you could have had.' Nina said quietly back blushing too. I could tell that neither of us really enjoyed showing our full emotions in front of one each other.

And what had looked like a normal teenage relationship to anyone else, was now something really special. Something that if people realised how much we meant to each other, they would be astonished

Cheesy, I know.
