I knew what he was going to do. I had been daydreaming about this for years. Literally. I look up at him and stood on my toes. But of course nothing is allowed to happen. Yet. We were about to kiss when I heard a backpack drop to the floor behind me. Britney stood there, looking so shocked I almost wish I had a camera. " WHAT THE FUCK!!" She yelled at Alex. " Are you blind you idiot!!" He looked at her like she was crazy. But I knew what she was talking about. Britney had been hanging out with him a lot at the end of the school year. Any sensible girl would know that when she said that she didn't like him like that and he was only her best friend she was lying. You can see it in the way she looks at him. Almost as if she worships him. And she is always by him: at lunch, during gym, almost every single class period. So yea, he was probably one of the only people who couldn't see that. " I have a crush on you!" She blurts out. " I know," he says in a sad voice, shocking both of us. " I just didn't want to hurt your feelings because I don't like you. I like Kayla." He might have said he liked me, but then I realized something. " Wait a sec. You care about hurting her feelings but not mine? Sure sounds like you actually like me hu." I step away from him and glare at him. " I'm going to class," I state, hoping he will follow me or try to stop me and fix this. But he doesn't. It almost broke my heart again. I put in my headphones that had been blaring my music this whole time as I walk to Earth Science, our first class. Why can't things be easy. Why do I have to stay lonely and sad. I thought about it as I walked the short distance. Fate is mean. Apparently Alex's spot is on my left. And Britney's spot is on my right. Really. I sigh as I put my stuff in the alcove in the science table. I hear footstep and our teacher, Mrs. Fyre walks in. Her last name matches her red hair in a way( it's pronounced feery not fire cause some people have said that before). "Good morning Kayla!" "Good morning to you too Mrs. Fyre," I reply. " How was your summer?" She asks. " I guess it wasn't that bad cause I'm still here!" She smiles and sits at her computer. I decide to walk around and see if anyone else I know is here yet. I head towards the library, but I slow down before I turn the left corner. This is the hallway Brit and Alex were in. I make sure to check for people before I walk around the corner. A few older kids have arrived, but I don't see them anywhere. Hmmmmm...... I walk into the library and return the last few of the backpack full of books I had borrowed for the summer. The librarian Mrs. Manstrom is really nice. I helped her out by shelving books for half an hour after school every day for the first three quarters of school last year. Then other kids started to help out so I didn't need to anymore. One day I walked to my locker after choir and there was a little card and a present. Mrs. Manstrom had gotten me a really nice book light for reading in the dark. Well, anyways. She wasn't there right now though sadly because some of the teachers had a meeting. I checked my books in and went to go shelve them in the stacks when I heard angry whispers. I had thought I was the only person in the library but apparently not. I put the books down and tiptoed over to the nearest stack. I can't see anyone yet, but I hear them. I turn the corner and walk down a row. Them I hurriedly jump behind a stack as one of he two people almost saw me. "Brit, I'm serious. I don't like you like that!" " But Alec why not? I'm better than Sienna and Kayla is a puny wimp so what do you see in her anyways? At least I'm pretty, smart, and athletic. She's only smart and annoying." I was about to jump out and bitch slap her when someone from the opposite side of the stacks beat me to it. Britney stood there with her hand to her cheek, glaring at...hannah?! Hannah was my friend who had also been ignoring me all summer. But I guess I'm forgiven by the look Hannah shoots me before she starts chewing Tiffany out. She's like a moma bear and is almost as talk as Alex . "Who do you think you are?! Cause I know you are not some god who can lord over anyone and judge them like they are nothing. You are a shallow petty plastic who just won't learn!!" As soon as he finishes she walks off to go check out a book. So that's how she heard them in the first place. I look at Britney . " I'll talk to you later," she said as she pointed a finger at Alex. Then she " gracefully " walks away after shooting me a glaring look. Now I'm alone with Alex. Again. Ug. I start to say something and think better of it. Instead I start to walk away " Wait, Kayla, please just hear me out!" I turned around and glared at him. " What." He walked up to me and only stopped when we were as close as we were in the hallway. " I didn't know you would think about what I had said like that. And I'm sorry. I do care about you more than I do Sienna or Britney or any other girl!" I look up at him with a look that says " oh really " loaded with sarcasm. I didn't have time to react when he suddenly picks me up and kisses me. At first I thought this can't be happening I've only ever dreamed about this. But why does it feel so real? Then I realize that it is real and that Alex is actually kissing me. At first his kiss was soft, like he didn't want to scare me away. But then when I started kissing him back it changed. I saw a side of him I had never even dreamt of. He then widened his lips a bit and the kiss became more passionate. I wrapped my legs around his waist and my arms around his neck. My hands were in his hair while one of his hands held onto me as the other roamed my back and sent shivers down my spine. He felt how I reacted and he set me down and lowered himself until we could continue comfortably. He kissed me again, this time hungrily. I growled back with an equal fierceness. This might be the first boy I've ever kissed, but at least I know I'll leave a lasting impression. My hands are in his hair and his hands are slowly traveling towards my waist. I hate to have to do this, but someone is going to catch us if we don't stop. I break away from Alex's kiss and tell him," I want to go on but someone is gonna catch us if we do here!" He looks at me with an understanding gaze and we stop everything. " Was that your first kiss?" I asked him. " Yea," he said sheepishly. " Don't worry it was mine too," I replied. "But it sure didn't seem that way did it?" I look at him mischievously and kiss him quickly. "Does this mean we are finally dating?" He asked. "I think so," with a stupid grin on my face I said. We straitened out clothes and separately leave the book shelves. "We are going to have to continue that sometime soon," he whispers in my ear. I smile at him and nod. I fell for the right guy. He thinks like me on certain things yet is very different. The rest of the day we stole glances and smiles with each other when no one was looking. Thankfully Hannah started talking to me again. That is the best feeling in the world. Next to snogging Alex of course ( Harry potter term for kissing ). Lunch was normal except Britney wasn't sitting by Alex. We agreed in the halls to act like we normally would so people wouldn't know about us juuust yet. But secretly we were waiting for the right chance to be alone. When I walked home that day after shelving books I had a spring in my step just like usual and I wasn't feeling horrible. I was one of the tons of clouds floating on the breeze that is love in the blue sky. My mom asks me why I am so happy, but it's easy to dismiss the question by saying that I'm glad to be back in school again. I stayed up almost till 2:30 am talking to Alex, but then we both agreed that we should go to bed. As I closed my eyes I knew that my dreams would be of perfection and Alex . And 20 miles away I knew Alex was thinking the same of me.
I hope u peeps like it so far. The history is real and these people r real. But Britney isn't a plastic and Alex is not that romantic ( I think) thou that's ma hannah and my teachers. I will try to continue tomorrow but I'm sorry if I can't. I hope it wasn't too long lol I sorta got carried away hehe☺️ so see you later!! ~the creator.
