Alexa was next to me and was probably flirting with the guy that was next to her, Connor went on and on about the upcoming football season with the guys and all the girls were bored to death talking to each other. We were at a party at some guy's place and we were sitting on a picnic table at the beach. I wasn't paying attention to anything that was going on around me because for the past 30 minutes Jackson and I had been looking at each other, smiling or laughing, communicating in that language we had created. We both knew the party was boring, that Connor was trying to impress a girl at the table and that Alexa was about to grab her things and meet the guy next to her in some room in the house but we never said it, we just looked at each other and smiled or laughed.
Jackson seemed unable to convey certain message because soon he was grabbing a paper and a pen from somewhere on the table and wrote down something and gave the paper to me. I grabbed it without looking at it and his smile told me that what I was about to read was good. I opened the paper in my hands and read : I' m going to kiss you now.
I looked up and smiled, letting him know that I needed that too. In that same second we both stood up and reached for each other faces across the picnic table and kissed. In front of everyone we kissed and opened a door to something that we wouldn't be able to close. We broke apart and looked into each other's eyes smiling. Yeah, we both knew this was going to be good.
We sat back down and when we turned to look at everyone they were all looking at us like we were the main event of the night. We hadn't thought about everyone seeing us kissing, or that we were giving a show. I blushed and looked down at the paper that I was still holding in my hand.
"What?" he said in between laughter. No one said a thing. "just a couple of friends kissing" he said reaching for my hand and giving a quick squeeze "right?" he asked me and I looked up at him and smiled.
"Sure" I said nodding and then everyone went on with their conversations. Including us, we went back to our private communication.
