Chapter twenty-three (Milan)

A/N the gif isn't supposed to look like Max and Milan but Isak and Even are so cute!!! I wish I could watch Skam :(

I quickly peck his lips, close his locker and turn around to walk away.

''Wait, what?'' Max Mutters. ''Wait up!'' He exclaims. ''Come on, Mie. Aren't you gonna tell me what we're going to do?''

''You'll just have to wait and see.'' I respond with a smirk plastered on my face.

***

I can hear Max running behind me the catch up with me.

''But I wanna know now... When will you tell me?''

'When we get there.'', I state like it's the obvious. ''Just follow me. You don't mind taking the bus, do you?'', I can't help but sound a bit worried. I want this first date to be perfect.

Max chuckles at me before answering with a big smile: ''Of course not silly, we've taken the bus many times.''

I don't know why I'm this nervous. For the past three years we've hung out non stop. I know him inside out and vice versa. I knew all his insecurities and I'm starting to learn the new ones too. His parents are my parents. My house is his house (literally) , his house is my house.

Why am I this nervous?

What if he doesn't like me after this date? What if he realizes we're not meant to be more than friends?

SHUT UP!

''Mie? Are you okay?'', Max asked shaking my arm and waking me up from my thoughts.

''Huh? Oh yeah I'm fine. '', I answer chuckling. I know he can see something is up but Max decides not to ask about it which I'm very glad about.

''Eheh. So, what are we going to do?''

''Isn't it more fun and romantic when it's a surprise?'' I say. I really hoped this would stop him from asking. I was wrong.

''Nope, just tell me.''

''I won't tell you.''

''Come on, Mie. I will kiss you if you tell me.'', He added with a mischievous smirk on his face.

I snort at the boy while we take our seat in the bus. ''You will kiss me either way.'', I say stating the facts.

''I WILL n- okay yeah you're right.'' Max quickly looks away with pink tinted cheeks.

I softly nudge the boy in his side, not forgetting how ticklish he is, making him shriek and turning around to look at me with a pout. I can't help but laugh at the boy which only makes him pout even more.

How can someone not kiss that pout? Like his lips are just begging to be touched. And that's what I do, I lean in a little bit and let Max close the gap between us. That gap that has been growing since the accident but is finally reducing. That gap that is closing a bit more everyday. That gap that will leave a scar, a scar that we can handle together.

Our lips move perfectly in sync. Love is radiating from the both of us. This boy is my everything.

Max stops kissing me and sits back a little bit while looking into my eyes. ''So when are we there?'', he beamed.

I groan a bit but I honestly couldn't get mad or irritated at this boy. I wanted to act mad or pretend like he was annoying and should just shut up. But he has these big blue twinkling eyes and I couldn't help but smile at the boy.
