Escape

Chapter 9

We continued to eat and talk about pointless things. Out of nowhere josh gets onto a table top and screams, “YOO!! My friend would like to say something to someone, who I am kidding he’d love to say something to someone” and everyone went silent. No one talked or even moved a muscle. Then Peter pulled Josh down from the table top and whispered something to him, but Josh didn’t listen and pushed Peter up onto the table top. He stood there nevevously not knowing what to say and then he took a deep breathe.

“hey everyone umm, I’m sorry to bother you all but there’s this girl and a couple of nights ago she hurt me a lot and I ended up beating someone up because of how much pain it caused me. And yeah she said sorry but I didn’t say to her that I forgave her or not, I just told her not to touch me. Anyways today I realised as I walked down the hallway and saw her today, I realised that I could not live without her in my life and that I want a committed relationship with this girl because I’ve never felt the same about anyone else before. And she did say that if I was to ever ask her out I had to do it publicly and impress her, and to all those other girls in the school I’m not going to be making out with you or having sex with you anymore because I don’t want you, I want her, and only her” he said so everyone could hear, we were all still sitting in silence all eyes looking up at him even though he just broke a couple of hearts he kept going. “so getting to the point…” he said while turning to face me and my friends, all I could do was freeze and blush, I knew he was talking about me but I just couldn’t move at all. “Kristen May, will you do me the honours of going out on a date with me?” he said while climbing off the table top and walking right towards me. All I wanted to do was just jump on him and kiss him until I could no longer feel my lips, no Kristen no! Slowly. While he was walking towards me he was bighting his lip and it was turning me on, I had to keep fighting the urge to kiss him, all I could do was sit there and stare at him. He really was like an angel. He finally got over to where I was sitting and held out his hand, I slid my hand into his and he lifted me up off the seat to stand on it instead. He then with hi free hand, he bring it up and stroked his fingers softly absent my cheek. Our foreheads were touching and our noses were brushing, I could feel his warm breath against my icy skin. “Please” Peter whispered to me. Then I kissed his cheek and his face lit up. “So where we going on this date of ours huh?” I whispered back to him. As soon as he said that he lifted me up off the seat and held me in his arms and yelled “I GOT THE DATE!” so everyone could hear him. And everyone cheered and congratulated him. And he didn’t put me down afterwards; even after the bell rang to go to class I had to force him to let me go.

All through class all I could think about was him, I kept looking out the window onto the football field, and he was there. Shirtless. His six pack was beyond perfection. He was perfection. I started to drool while watching him train. After the bell for the end of the day rang I got to my locker and being next to the boys locker rooms I saw every hot guy that was on the field. Even peter. I opened my locker and found a purple box with a blue bow on it. I didn’t open it; I wanted to open it later. I put the box and my homework in my bag, closed my locker door only to find Peter leaning against the wall which at first scared the shit out of me. “Oh my god Peter don’t do that!” I say while trying to playfully push him but he didn’t shove. He chuckled. “I like scaring you, you’re easy to scare” he says with a flirtatious tone. He grabbed my hand and we walked to his locker. “So you want to come to work with me today?” he asked me.

“ummm… I don’t know, what would I do?” I say to him.

“well you could do your homework like a good girl, which since you stole a car I highly doubt you’re a good girl or you could surf or you could stare at me all afternoon or I could be extra sexy with you while I’m on shift and make all the other boys jealous that your mine and not there’s” he says while getting his bag and closing his locker door. He then grabs my hand and intertwines it with his and we start walking to my car. “So you going to come or not?” he asks me.
