"Why?"
"I don't understand why someone like you would even want to be with someone like me?" I say not even facing Dylan, Instead i'm looking out the window.
"I assume you're referring to me kissing you." he looks at me with his gorgeous eyes.
"Yea, that. I still can't fully comprehend why someone like you would want someone like mys-" he cuts me off.
"You don't get it do you? Lea, I really like you. Ever since that day at the movies were you spilled soda on my shoes. I thought it was adorable how embarrassed you had gotten, but then I saw you run of with your friend and I got so jealous over the fact that he would get the chance to see you again but I wouldn't."
It made me have this really weird feeling, that he had actually gotten jealous of Caleb, He was only my bestfriend, but it was still really cute that he got jealous.
"You don't know how happy I was when I saw you walk into starbucks and went over to talk to my boss, I was hoping that you were the new girl I was supposed to train, and I'm so glad you were. And then we started to become friends and well now we are here, and I'm so glad you are here, with me tonight." He was staring into my eyes now, and I couldn't help but blush.
"Me too," I finally managed to get out.
"Lea, will you be my Girlfriend?"
Did he just say, what I think he did? Did he just ask me to be his girlfriend? This can't possibly be right, Like my first kiss and now this? Oh my god, this can't get much better.
"Yes, I'd love to. But I have to get going now" I say giving him a kiss on the cheek. Opening the car door.
He grabs my hand before saying "Well, if you are my girlfriend now, you are gonna have to do better than that.." He teases. So I gave him a small peck on the lips and leave the car. I wave goodbye once I get to the front porch and I begin to look for my keys. It takes me a while but I finally find them. I head upstairs to my room and I find Emma watching TV in my room (A/N I decided to change Emma's character so her and Lea could do more stuff together, but the girls will still go to disney land. Emma is gonna be portrayed by Peyton List when she was 11, Picture to the side) She's watching Pretty Little Liars typical Em, that's our favorite show.
"Hey," she smiles at me while pausing the TV.
"Why are you all smiley like?" I just stare at the ground for a while.
"Oh my god Lea just tell me, you know you can trust me." she says giving me this indescribable look.
I hesitate to tell her, but I finally let it out. "I had my first kiss tonight!" I squeel. And she starts to like jump out of joy I guess.
"With who? Is he cute? What's his name? How tall is he? Are you guys going out?" she says really excited and we both just sit on my big bed.
"Wow, so many questions" I smile at her. "Well, he's this guy I met the other day long story, And yes very cute. His name is Dylan and he's taller than-" She interrupts me mid sentence.
"Hate to break it to ya, but everyone's taller than you. Even I'm almost taller than you,so are you two going out? " she says.
"Yess," I smile and she gives me this hug.
"You have to introduce me to Dylan, so I can approve of your relationship and give you an official ship name."
"Ship name?" I ask quite confused.
"Yes ship name, it's the combination of a couples name, or just to people you like together. For example Spoby and Haleb those are ships." She states as if it were the most obvious thing in the world. I just respond to that comment with an Ooh and Em leaves my room.
I honestly think she knows too much for her age, like shes barely 11. But I don't mind, I love her to death and I can talk to her about anything, She still doesn't know about my disease though, she thinks it was just a cold or something. I don't know how to tell her. The two of us are almost inseparable, I feel like I should spend more time with her, you know with the whole only 5 months to live thing. Well its almost only 4 months now. But whatever, I need to spend more time with her, and all the people I love. Because theres not much time left and i've only crossed 3 things of my list, thats not allot..
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
