KISS NOTE

Chapter 8~THIRD PERSON POV~A warm Thursday of February.

Today, everyone has one day left before the big night. The community center was beautifully decorated for the big night, still needed final touches though. In downtown, Chase walked from school to the coffee shop, carrying his lunch after school hours ended. Also, he was carrying a book to read after finishing his lunch. He entered in the coffee shop and sat on a soft, banquette seating next to the tall, crystal-clear window. He always loved to see a beautiful view of people walking and chatting and cars riding smoothly on the road. He wondered when his friends will be coming. He began eating his lunch; a chicken sandwich and a plastic, water bottle to drink.

He finished eating his lunch, crumbled the plastic bag as a ball and hid it in his jean pocket. He read one of his favorite books called "The Midnight Love", a love story about a boy confessing his love to the girl of his dreams at midnight, and their lives suddenly changed the next day. However, he already knows that it's just fiction, meaning that won't ever happen. But he knows that love is always real in any place he goes. While he reads a beautiful kiss scene, he sighed deeply like he could imagine those young lovers standing at a misty forest.

Suddenly, he heard the bell ringing that someone came. It was Tyler, Kevin, and Zach walking together in the coffee shop.

"Hey, guys!" Chase greeted and his three friends saw him sitting.

"Hey, Chase! How are you?" Tyler asked and the three boys sat with Chase on the table.

"I'm good. How about you guys?" Chase asked them.

"Well, excited for the dance." Kevin chuckled.

"Oh, man. I can't wait to turn myself from cute to handsome." Chase smiled.

"Oh, we're all going to look handsome for the dance party, guys." Zach expressed and snapped his fingers like he's sassy.

Chase just laughed.

"Hey, Chase. I'm going to tell you what happened yesterday. Look, Amanda and I had our first kiss by writing each other's name on Kiss Note." Tyler softly expressed and Chase got surprised.

"Are you serious?" Chase laughed with surprise.

"Same to me the day before." Zach spoke.

Tyler nodded.

"Well, how does it work? I'm so curious." Chase chuckled.

"Just watch, because now it will be Kevin's turn." Tyler spoke as he looked to a flushing and giggling Kevin.

Zach and Chase whooped a little.

"Boy, you know her good!" Tyler encouraged Kevin, laughing.

"Tell me, who's the girl you're smitten of?" Chase asked.

Kevin was too bashful to tell because of his cute laughing, but decides to calm himself down by taking deep breaths.

"Natalie." Kevin sighed.

That surprised Chase, also to Tyler and Zach.

"She's a beauty." Chase whispered.

"She's perfect for me. She's the only one who stole my heart." Kevin expressed.

"Yeah, boy!" Tyler exclaimed as the rest of them laughed.

"So you're ready to take your turn, Kevin?" Zach asked him.

"Oh yeah." He softly spoke.

Suddenly, the bell rang and it was a girl coming in the coffee shop. Who's the girl?

"Look who's coming." Chase whispered.

The four boys looked at the girl who just came in. It was Natalie, Kevin's crush. She was wearing a black, ruffled shirt, a long golden necklace and blue denim jeans. Also, her shoes are glittering gold. She saw the four boys, and shyly smiled at Kevin before sitting on the banquette seating behind the boys. The four boys got silently excited after a glance between Kevin and Natalie.
