My hand moves to her cheek and I brush the hair off her neck as we kiss. This is perfect. We both stop the kiss at the same time and we sit in the car awkwardly.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have done that." Her face flushes. I lean in and give her a peak on the forehead.

"It's okay." I smile and a little color comes back into her face. "I promise it's okay." I try to comfort her.

Jo's POV:

I can't believe I kissed him. What was I thinking? Oh that's right, I wasn't thinking! Oh my god I can't believe I did that. He kissed back though... I'm in second period, Cooking. I probably should be paying more attention but were cooking different kinds of pizzas, nothing I haven't done before.

"It's nice to have you back Jo." My teacher Mrs.Derifield tells me. She is the best teacher ever and this was the best possible class ever but today all I can think about is Niall. Since we kissed does this mean were together? I need to talk to him about this but how? Maybe in third period he will how signs.

When I arrive at my locker before third period Niall is standing there waiting for me. "Hey Jo."

"Hey Niall."

"How does your head feel?"

"It's pounding but it's okay."

"Are you sure? I can take you home." He offers.

"I can last one more period." I tell him with a smile. I open my locker to trade binders and me and Niall go to Math. Mrs.Barron greets us with hello and she missed us. Whatever.

Math is as boring as ever and all we do is show Mrs.Barron our business and how far we've gotten. Luckily for me and Niall, were finished.

Mrs.Barron gives us a packet that needs to be completed but she said we can take our time cause were the only group finished.

"Try hards." I hear a few people say but I push it aside. I go to Emily so I can tell her what happened this morning.

"Emily?" I ask nervous of what my friend is going to think.

"Whattup Jo?" She says discarding her partner.

"I kissed Niall."

"You what?"

"I..kissed..Niall." Her face turns into a huge smile.

"So, Brenna was right." She says quietly, but loud enough for me to hear.

What was Brenna right about? "What?"

"She thought you liked Niall so she talked to him when you were, well out of it and he likes you too." Emily is such a gossiper. That's why we're friends! Why would Bren assume that I did. That's why he asked me on a date.

"Really?" I try not to smile too big but it shows through. "Okay. Well you better finish so you won't have anything to do last minute." She was one of those people who do better under pressure so she always did stuff last minute.

I walk back to where Niall was sitting and I watch him try to figure out a problem. "Niall, lets go out tonight." I whisper so no one can hear.

He looks up and doesn't understand what I mean. "Instead of Friday lets do something tonight. We can go roller skating." I suggest laughing.

"How about no. Would you like to go to my house for dinner?" He suggests. He is so beautiful, he is perfect.

"Sure. I'll make a desert to bring." I smile. I remember when we first went to the bakery. Shit, the bakery. Damn, Marlene.
