His Girl

Finally

Chapter Sixteen

The next morning I was woken up by something tickling the side of my face. My first instinct was to slap that thing away because I was trying to get some sleep. And then I heard a loud thump.

"Whatisgoingon?" I mumbled, opening my eyes.

I almost peed in my shorts when I saw Beau lying on the ground, groaning in pain.

"Are you okay? Sorry I didn't mean to hurt you I was just-" Beau stopped me by placing his finger on my lips.

He gave me a boyish grin and started running his hand through my hair.

Beau started leaning closer and I could feel his hot breath hitting my face. I gulped nervously as his lips neared mine and started closing my eyes.

After a few seconds I still didn't feel his lips on mine.

"You should get rid of your bed hair first, cupcake." Beau whispered in my ear.

I opened my eyes and glared at him. So much for thinking we had a special moment back there.

After washing up or 'getting rid of my bed hair' as Beau would like to call it, I made my way downstairs to see my family and Beau sitting around the dining table for breakfast.

Beau was joking around with Justin and Haylee like he had known them for a long time.

The moment Beau saw me, he smiled a genuine smile, sending sparks through my veins.

"Come darling, sit beside Beau." My mum called out.

"Tom? You didn't tell us you had a boyfriend." My dad commented, giving me a knowing look.

"Um he's not my boyfriend dad. He's our neighbour." I replied unconvincingly.

"Not for long." My dad said, wiggling his eyebrows.

Haylee and Justin started giggling and chanting "Tom has a boyfriend."

Beau seemed to be enjoying this, grinning like a kid on Christmas Day.

"We're going out after breakfast. I told your dad." Beau whispered, giving me a sly grin.

That made me finish my breakfast in record speed because I can't wait to go out with Beau.

"Stay safe kiddos. Use protection!" My dad called out when Beau and I were in the front yard.

I almost ran inside our shed to grab a shovel to dig up some soil so I could hide underground.

Could my dad at least at normal around Beau?

"I like your dad." Beau said suddenly.

I stayed silent, wanting him to continue.

"I never had a dad in my life. Nobody taught me guy stuff like footy or how to shave." Beau said bitterly.

"Beau, I'm so sorry. I honestly am." I said softly.

"It's okay Tom, it isn't your fault. I've got you now and you're all I need." Beau replied, smiling a little.

"Come with me, I wanna show you something." Beau tugged on my arm.

After walking through a few blocks, we finally arrived at a playground.

"This is the playground me and my mates always hang out at. And this bench, is ours." Beau said, sitting on a bench.

I sat beside him and took in the surroundings.

"Tom?" Beau said suddenly.

"Yeah?" I answered, looking at him.

"I'm not really good at this. Shit I've never even done this before but I was just wondering if... Will you be my girlfriend, Tom?" Beau asked, running his hand through his hair nervously.

"Yes, I will Beau. I wanna be your girlfriend." I replied, smiling so widely my cheeks were hurting.

Beau pulled me in for a hug and I could feel his heart beating so fast. I wonder if he could feel mine. I wonder if he could hear how loud I was screaming with joy in my head. I wonder if he knew how thankful I was that he finally asked.

I was so in love with Beau.
