Accidents Happen

0.4

After my mom picked me up, I went up to my room. I laid on my bed, playing the last twenty minutes over and over again in my head.

Did our lips actually meet?

Of course they did. I know this because I felt the sparks. And I knew he felt them too. I looked out my window and across to my neighbor Jessenia's window. She was practicing her electric violin. Jessenia was my neighbor and mutual best friend with Summer. I would've never known she lived next door if Summer wouldn't have introduced us. She convinced her brother to switch rooms so that her window could be across from mine. We weren't that far away that we could talk out our windows and if it was late, we'd write notes like in the music video for "You Belong With Me" by Taylor Swift. She was really pretty. She had brown, curly, shoulder length hair and dark brown eyes. She was quite taller than me, and a little taller than Summer. She sings well and can rap well too, but I'm the only one who knows that.

I went to my window and shined my laser pointer in it or get her attention. She took off her chinky headphones she used to practice and turned around to me. Her face lit up and she set her violin down and came and opened her window. I opened mine.

"Hi!" She shouted.

"Hey! I have something important to tell you."

"Ok, spill."

"So today I was trying to show Freddy a new skateboard trick, but someone was standing in my way and I crashed into him."

"Who was it?"

"Zack."

"So, he's your friend, what's the big deal... It's not like it was a stranger or something."

"Yeah, but we kissed."

Jessenia fell out of her chair and got back up.

"Sorry, did I miss hear something, YOU KISSED HIM."

"Not on purpose... When I crashed into him our lips met, on accident. Accidents like that happen, right?"

"No, not really."

"But that's not the only thing."

"What do you mean?"

"When we kissed, I felt something."

"OH MY GOD! Did he feel the same way."

"I don't know, I haven't talked to him since,"

"Well you have to call and ask him."

"Ok, I will."

"Right now!"

"Ok, I'm going." I said, I shut my window and took a deep breath. I saw Jessenia close her window behind me. I sighed. She's met all of my friends and comes to all the group hangouts. And she's on the William B. Travis Prep waiting list. If she gets in, she will most likely come and be in our gifted class. I really hope she gets accepted.

I went downstairs to get the home phone, because I knew if Zack saw my cell phone contact flash across his phone, he most likely would ignore it. My home phone number wasn't in his phone so he would answer curious to see who it was. And just to be safe, I called his home phone number that I got from Lawrence three months ago when Zack got his phone taken away and I had to call him.

As the phone rang, I went upstairs, closing locking my bedroom door behind me, as if somehow locking it would make it more soundproof. I sat on a pink bean bag chair and waited for someone to pick up. The line went dead and the message asking me to leave a message played. I groaned and called one last time.

Finally, someone picked up.

"Hello?"

"Hi, Mr. Mooneyham?"

"Speaking."

"This is Tomika Spencer-Williams from school."

"Oh yes Tomika..."

"Can I talk to Zack please?"

"Of course, hang on one moment." He said. "Zack! Come to the phone, there's a friend that wants to talk to you." His dad called out, not knowing that I could hear everything going on in their house. I head noise and could only assume it was Zack coming down the stairs.

"Coming," he said and the noise stopped. That must've meant he was in the stairs. Zack picked up the phone and breathed into it for a minute before saying:

"Hello?"

"Zack, It's Tomika."

I heard him sigh.

"Listen I don't want to talk about what happened today."

"Well I do, and there's something I'm dying to know, did you feel anything?"

He was silent for a long time.

"Nope, gotta go." And the line went dead.

You've gotta be freaking kidding me. That boy was such a coward. I decided to call the only other person who knew about this- rather saw what happened. Freddy.

I went back up to my room, Freddy had no reason to avoid me so I could just call him through my cellphone. After letting it ring for a second, he picked up.

"Hello?"

"Hey, it's me."

"Tomika?"

"Yes! I've gotta talk to you."

"About what?"

"About what happened today after school between me and Zack."

"Oh yeah, haha, that was hilarious."

"Yeah, well maybe not so much anymore."

"Why?"

"Because... I think I felt something in that kiss."
