Happiness ☀︎ Wyatt Oleff

five ⇒ seven minutes in hell

Holly

"Wow, this is Chosen's party? It's amazing." I say as we enter his huge house. The house is loaded with people and loud blasting music.

"Chosen, my man!" Jaeden shouted as he approached Chosen and briefly hugged him.

I walked to Chosen and hugged him tightly. "I missed you!" I said.

"I missed you too, Holly. It's been months, yet, I'm still taller than you." He joked as I playfully smacked his arm.

"Follow me to the kitchen! There are lots of drinks and food." He said as he walked to the kitchen and gesturing us to follow him.

"Where's Jeremy?" Finn asked.

"He's at the pool." Chosen replied.

"Oh okay."

I grabbed a cup from the counter and poured myself some fruit punch. I took a sip from my cup then turned around to find Wyatt looking at me. He turned his head away once I caught him staring at me then exited the kitchen.

"I caught Wyatt staring at you." Sophia said.

"Yeah, I know. I caught him too." I said. Then after a couple of seconds I spoke again, "Why?"

"It's probably because you look really hot tonight."

"Did you just call me hot?" I say, looking at her with a cheeky smile on my face.

"Maybe." She laughed then walked away, leaving me in the kitchen all by myself.

I got out of the kitchen then went outside. I was greeted by a large pool with people throwing beach balls and doing chicken fights everywhere.

I sat by the pool all by myself since Sophia left me in the kitchen a while ago. I took off my shoes, dipped my feet into the pool then took a sip from my cup.

"Hey." Someone said behind me. I turn around and saw Wyatt standing behind me.

"Oh hey, Wyatt." I greeted back.

"Can I sit beside you?" He asked.

"Yeah, of course." I reply as he takes off his shoes, sits beside me and dips his feet into the pool.

"What are you doing here all alone?" He asks, looking at me.

"Well, Sophia left me alone in the kitchen." I said, chuckling.

"Right." He chuckled. "Hey look at Jeremy over there." He said, pointing to Jeremy.

"Hey Jeremy!" I greeted, waving my hand at him.

"Hey Holly! And Wyatt." He greeted back then went back to doing whatever he is doing.

"I want pizza." Wyatt blurted out, looking at me seriously.

"Me too." I said with an amused smile on my face.

"Let's go get that pizza then." I nodded as he stood up. He helped me stand up as I put on my shoes.

While walking to the kitchen, I feel his hand brushing against mine. I got the signal and intertwined our fingers. I look up from our intertwined fingers and bit my lip, trying hard not to smile but failed when I saw him faintly smiling to himself.

30 minutes later

"Have fun on your seven minutes in heaven!" Jack teased, laughing.

"More like seven minutes in hell!" Wyatt, replied.

They shut the closet door closed, leaving me alone with Wyatt.

"Oh, and uh, use protection!" I heard Chosen say making the group laugh.

"We're fifteen!" I shout as he just laughed in response.

"I swear to God they set this up." I heard Wyatt mutter under his breath.

"Well, it's obvious. I can hear them laughing and giggling on the other side." I say, rolling my eyes and crossing my arms.

"Why is it always us?" He asks.

"I honestly don't even know." I chuckle. "God, one second we were just eating pizza and now, this." I said, playfully rolling my eyes.

"We really don't have to do anything, you know. We could just chat and ask questions." He says.

"Yeah, I know." I reply.

After a couple seconds of silence, he decided to break the ice by saying, "Uh, you look really pretty today, or tonight. I mean you always do-" He rambled.

"Thank you, Wyatt. You look pretty too." I joked while he just chuckled in response.

"Can I ask you something?" I said, looking up to him since he's a little bit taller than me.

"Yeah, sure. What is it?"

"Why are they always teasing you with this secret crush of yours? I mean who is she anyway?" I ask as his eyes widen and his face turns red.

"Oh, uh, I...uh..." He stutters.

"You really don't have to tell me if you don't want to. I'm not gonna force you." I say, giving him a reassuring smile.

"No, uh, I've been meaning to tell you about this anyway."

"Oh okay. So, who is it?" I ask, looking up at him curiously.

"Just promise me that we'll still be friends no matter what." He says nervously.

"Okay, I promise." I say, grinning at him.

He looked into my eyes for a few seconds then held my cheek and smashed his lips onto mine. At first, I was shocked and I didn't know how to react but eventually, I closed my eyes and kissed him back.

"I like you, Holly." He admitted after we pulled away, looking into my eyes seriously.
