In Love With My Best Friend

Chapter 26: Official

•April•

I can't believe it. As of Saturday Kacey is officially my girlfriend. On top of that Kacey and I had our first kiss; which is actually her first ever kiss with anyone. Her lips were so soft and I'm just left craving more. You won't believe it but the first thing I did Saturday night when I got back home was jump up and down as I squealed in excitement.

I told my mom all about the date aswell as the kiss and asking Kacey to be my girlfriend. She just smiled and laughed at me. She has been rooting for me since I told her who I liked.

Now I'm standing by the school entrance waiting on Kacey to get here. The weather is quite cool but I have the hoodie Kacey gave me on. Speaking of my girl we talked it over yesterday and she doesn't mind if everyone knows that we are dating. You don't even know how happy that makes me. Now I can show her off all I want.

From the corner of my eye I see Clarity and Ash approaching from the other side of the parking lot. They both seem to notice me standing at the stairs and walk to stand beside me.

"Hey April. Who are you waiting on?" Ash asks me with his normal playful smile.

"My girlfriend." is the simple reply that I give him. I hear and audible gasp from Clarity.

"You and tiny fighter made it official and you didn't even tell me? I want a full run down of Saturday night by this afternoon." Clarity demands still a little shocked by the news but still being her demanding self as per-usual.

I was about to reply when I spot Kacey walking from the sidewalk into the school parking lot. I really need to start giving her and Rose rides to school so that they don't have to walk all the time. Even in the freezing weather the two of them walk to school and that can't be good for their health and it worries me if I'm honest.

Kacey reaches me and a small smile appears on her face. Damn, why does my woman have to be so endearing?

"Hey beautiful." Kacey says as she loops and arm around my waist to pull me into her as we walk up the stairs side by side.

"Good morning." I let out happily and Kacey just shakes her head affectionately.

"So when the hell were you guys going to tell me that this was going on?" Ash asks exasperated.

"Never." Kacey says with a shrug and I stare at her questioningly.

"And just why not?" Ash scoffs.

"Because I don't need to announce it to you. I'm pretty sure you have two eyes and can tell what is going on. April and I don't need to announce to everyone we are in a relationship. I think actions are enough." Kacey says placing a kiss to my cheek.

"You're so cute." I gush leaning my head against the small brunette's. I'm touched that she has taken the time to think things like this through.

"April, I say she gets major girlfriend points for that one." Clarity says with a large smile as she points at Kacey.

I just nod at her and smile happily. I'm on cloud nine right now. Why is my girlfriend like the best person on this damn earth? I really don't know why everyone is so scared of this girl.

"Alright you crazies. We need to be getting to class right about now. So I say lets get moving." Ash rushes us to class with a quick goodbye to Clarity.

Kacey releases me from her grip when we get to her locker. Having already stopped at mine earlier this morning I wait beside her. As she digs through her locker I may or may not be staring at her ass, because damn. I mean Kacey has an amazing mind and she's just a caring person all the way around but she has an amazing body. After all these weeks of making her eat like a normal person she has really started to fill out and grow into her curves nicely. Even after the brunette shuts her locker and turns around I keep my gaze locked on her.
