Chapter 11- Toothpaste kisses

Before Will, Amelia had hated the taste and smell of toothpaste. she didn't particularly like the mint, and the way the freshness burnt her mouth slightly. But the boy always smelt like toothpaste. and every time she kissed him, it was like her mouth was being dosed in the minty paste. the topic had come up in conversation that day, as they lay on  a hammock in Will's garden, holding hands. 

"Well, i can stop brushing my teeth if you want. that would get rid of the taste" he teased, tickling her sides as Am squealed and tried to escape his grip. "WILL I SWEAR TO GOD STOP" she laughed, pushing him roughly and succeeding in pushing him off the hammock, dragging herself with him as it completely turned over. they both fell into a fit of giggles as Ben and Hannah came out, armed with water balloons. They had been talking about having a water fight for the majority of the summer months, since it had been surprisingly hot.  Amelia barely had time to register this before they were both drenched with freezing water, Will shielding her from the main blow whilst she ran for safety in the tree house they had.  

They both giggled as Will helped her up the final rung of the ladder, before they both collapsed onto the floor of the unstable structure. "its a good job we love those two noobs" she laughed, turning over to kiss will on the nose, as she loved seeing him wrinkle it in distaste. "Hey Am, i know this is a bit random since we are like, properly together, but, would you maybe want to go to the cinemas tonight? just you and me?" Will questioned, blushing slightly as he noticed the proximity of them. "Really? i'd love that. although, think i'd rather go with anyone else other than you" she said, smirking slightly as she pretended to think of someone else to go with. "Alright then. You know, i think i'd rather give my kisses to someone else anyway. someone who likes the taste of mint and toothpaste, perhaps." Will said, pulling her into his lap, memories of the hospital escapades flooding back to him as he leaned in to kiss Amelia's lips.

 "Right, i better start persuading my dad to let you take me out.. see you at 7?" she asked, kissing his cheek before climbing out of his lap. "Yeah, seven is good. oh, it looks like Ben and Hannah might be having their first kiss!" he laughed, leaning out of the tree house window. Amelia leaned over to observe, and saw that Ben was practically shoving his tongue down Hannah's throat. "that's... an interesting method." she giggled. Will laughed with her, turning her to face him. " Well. i guess good kissing runs in our family" he said, winking before helping Am climb down the tree house ladder and leading her to the back gate. 

"Ok, well, i'll see you at 7?" she said, kissing Will's soft lips one more time before leaving the garden, rehearsing what she was going to say to her dad.
