Don't Say... I Love You

Chapter 9

He got closer to me and being the stupid girl, every time he stepped closer I stepped back until my back hit the lockers. I pressed my books to my chest. God I’m so stupid. Jake had a smile on his face. He put his arms to the sides my head so I was trapped. He stared at my lips. My eyes dropped to his lips. His lips are tempting me, practically calling my name. I want to kiss him. I look at his eyes. His fascinating eyes enchant me. They were the color of an ocean at this moment. He wasn’t teasing my anymore.

He was serious. He closed his enchanting eyes and leaned in. I wasn’t thinking anymore. My thoughts flew out the window. I closed my eyes and leaned in. I felt the slightest brush of his lips on mine. It might not have been a real kiss but the contact woke something in me. Something that only desired his lips. He did it again. I had a craving to push his lips onto mine.

It was an appetite that grew. He pressed his lips on the corners of my lips repeatedly. I could hear my heartbeat accelerate. It was as loud as his. I’m craving for him. I couldn’t stop the desire I had to kiss him. His lips brushed against mine again. I could smell him. His scent is mouthwatering. It was like a summer breeze with sunshine. Suddenly the bell rang. I opened my eyes and we jumped away from each other. The spell was broken.

He looked as surprised as me. We had a little more distance and the students were coming into the hallway. Jake’s eyes showed disappointment. What is he disappointed of? I realized if the bell had not rung we would have kissed. I was astonished that I craved for it and I still do. What is happening to me?

“I have to go”, Jake said.

He stared straight into my eyes. Do I regret almost kissing him? No. I don’t

“Ok. I have to go too”, I said.

“Can we hang out today? Only as friends if you want” Jake said hopefully.

“Yeah”, I said.

I felt upset about the friends part but it was for the best.

“Bye beautiful”, Jake said winking.

He’s back to normal.

“Bye stupid”, I said.

Jake smiled at me and left. I remembered we have next together. Yep, that almost kissing damaged our brains. During that class for once Jake and I had a normal conversation. Cassy looked at us with such shock that she was practically paralyzed. I know I would be too. When class ended Jake left us alone.

“Are you okay Les?” Cassy said.

“Yep. Why?” I said.

“Well, you and Jake weren’t arguing for once”, Cassy said.

“I know. I guess we’re growing out of that stage or something”, I said.

“Are you getting soft? Do you like him?” Cassy said.

“Don’t be ridiculous. Sometimes that animal can be okay”, I said.

“You surprise me everyday Les”, Cassy said.

Cassy laughed at me. At the end of school I left my friends. We said that next weekend we would meet up at the movies. As I was walking Jake’s car appeared near me.

“Get in”, Jake said through the window.

I pretended to think about it. I like to make him impatient.

“Come one Leslie. You said you would”, Jake said.

“Fine you sissy. Hold on to your panties”, I said getting into his car.

“I’m not a sissy and I would gladly hold on to your panties if you let me”, Jake said giving me a wink.

“Shut up you pervert”, I said.

“Only for you”, Jake said and drove off into a different direction.

He could be such a pervert. The majority of guys are. I wondered where Jake was taking me. I ended up being surprised that he parked near my favorite place. The bridge with the pond. I guess he likes to come here.

“Do you like coming here too?” I said.

“Yeah and I’m guessing you do too”, Jake said.

“Yep. This place helps me relax. It’s one of my favorites”, I said.

“That’s strange”, Jake said walking to the bridge.

“Why?” I asked following him.

“This place helps me relax too”, Jake said.

“Oh”, I said.

Maybe there’s another side of Jake. Who knows? We watched the life surrounding us. We talked more about ourselves. It turns out Jake and I had more in common than I thought but there were a lot of things we didn’t agree on. He hates chick flicks and loves scary movies.

 I agree on the scary movies but not on the chick flicks. He loves Chinese food and I love Mexican food. Real Mexican food not the type they say is Mexican food but isn’t. He likes any genre of music and so do I. He hates reading and I don’t. We were discussing our opinions.
