Josh POV

Today, I am going to school, I feel better than I did yesterday. Since Jen organised the date I felt much better, and she told me she felt the same way when I told her I loved her. I was on cloud nine!

Jen texted me and told me that she is going to meet me in school since she had to go there early because, she is putting up banners for the basketball game that our school is playing against another. She is the only one on the banner hanging committee, apparently no one wanted to work with her.

I reach school, and walk in ignoring the stares that I am getting from my friends. I walk through the doors and see Jennifer at her locker, getting some books out. I get over to her hurriedly, and wrap my arms around her waist, something I know she likes.

"Hey, gorgeous" I whisper in her ear, kissing her neck.

"Hey Joshy" she sighs, and relaxes into my chest.

"You okay, sweetheart?" I question, and start circling my thumbs where my hand rests.

"Yeah, just tired" she starts, and turns around in my arms. "I put up half the banners, but there are still so many left"

"Baby, don't worry. I'll help you" I smile

"You will?" she beams

"I will" I confirm, and peck her lips.

"Thank you! I love you Joshy" she grins, kissing me again. Man, I am never going to get tired of hearing that.

"I love you too, beautiful eyes" I chuckle, kissing her nose. "Let's get to class"

She nods, and we start walking towards class. I notice that there are many people in the corridor staring at us. Jen notices this too, I look at her to see her looking down at her books. I stop in the middle of the corridor, and Jen stops too completely confused.

Without hesitating, I kiss her, putting every feeling I have for her in this kiss. I kiss her for a long time, and she replies to it. I feel her smile through the kiss, which makes me smile too. We pull away smiling and panting.

"I love you, sweetheart"I kiss her forehead, then continue walking to class, leaving people with their jaws dropped.

We walk to class, and Jen takes her seat in her normal place, but before I can sit in my normal seat, in front of her, Dylan Johnson is sitting in front of her. I look at Jennifer, her eyes are wide, then they look at me, silently begging me to save her.

"Hey, sexy thang" Johnson says, what the fuck? Sexy thang? Who talks to a girl like that? Anger fills me to my bones, and I pull him off the chair by holding his collar.

"What the fuck did you say?" I question him.

"What? I was just giving that dork a compliment" he shrugs, DORK?

"Did you just call my girlfriend a dork?" I yell, now everyone in the class is looking at us. Jennifer stands from the chair and puts a hand on my shoulder.

"Josh, please stop" she pleads, I can feel her hand trembling on my shoulder.

"Jen-" I growl, still looking at Johnson, who is smirking like a rapist.

"Please, Josh?" she begs, I finally look at her, in her eyes. They are scared, and frightened. I drop his collar, and step away. I feel like a mutt.
