--Aarons POV--

"Hey." I smile at Lisa when I unlock my car.

"Hey, how's your test been?" she asks.

"Better than I thought. What's up with you?" We get into the car and I drive home.

"Nothing really.. What about a game of Madden?" she grins.

"Sure. Maybe Popeye's for dinner?" I suggest.

"Sounds good." she nods and turns up the radio.

We start singing with our ugliest voices and laugh the whole time.

When we arrive at home I get out and open the door, she follows me up to my room and I start Madden.

"Same teams as last time?" 

"Yep." I answer and she sits down on the couch next to me. 

We play a game, I get drinks and we play another one. 

But I can't think clear, I always look for the moment.

"Let's watch some tv." she suggests.

I turn it on and she puts her controller away.

We watch The Simpsons and after about 15 minutes, there is a commercial break.

And here is the moment I've been waiting for. I turn down the volume of the tv.

She turns her head and looks up at me with a smile. I look directly into her eyes and take her hand carefully, which she doesn't deny. 

I exhale to prepare and ask her. I am really nervous and my heartbeat increases.

"Lisa, will you be my girlfriend?"

I still look into her eyes and it feels like years until she answers.

Lisa smiles more than before and reliefs me "Yes, I want to be your girlfriend."

I grin widely and look towards the tv again.

"Can I also ask you something?" she then asks, still having her eyes on me.

"Sure." I say looking at her again.

"May I do something I wanted to do yesterday?" she whispers and I know exactly what she means.

With the tinglish feeling in me, I slowly move towards her.

She places her hand at the back of my head pulling me into a kiss.

Softly I put my lips on hers and we move them synchron. 

We pull away at the same moment and I open my eyes again.

She opens hers as well and lays her head on my chest.

I can't describe it, I am just the happiest human in the world now.
