I knew Gavin would love it, I spent ages deciding where to go but I thought the Aquarium would ring the biggest smile to his face. And it did. I stared at Gavin and the way his face lit up as he looked at all the fish with the biggest smile i've ever seen.

"Mi-cool! Mi-cool! Look at this one." He called out excitedly.

"Yeah Gav how fucking cool is this one."

We spent the next hour in the same spot just looking at all the different types of fish. We even saw a shark that looked a lot like Geoff and sting ray which looked oddly like Kerry.

"And this one," Gavin turned to me "It's my favourite one, so i'm naming him Mi-cool." He giggled.

I felt my cheeks redden at his smile, and the way his emerald green eyes were staring straight into mine was making my stomach flitter. The tension between made me want to kiss him.

"Uh..hey Gav? Wanna keep moving now?" I choked out.

"Yeah."

We followed the giant glass wall and headed toward the tunnel that lead around through to other parts of the aquarium. We came across a flight of stars, we headed up them to an outside area of little rock pools. They were little pools around the outside of the giant one which held all the sharks and fish we saw downstairs.

"Mi-cool look you can touch these ones," Gavin squealed while poking a sea cucumber.

"Gavin you dick," I chuckled. I walked up, put my hand into the rock pool and with a smirk on my face I splashed Gavin with the water.

"Argh Mi-cool! Mi-cool! What was that for?" He asked wiping the water from his face.

"Cause you we're being adorable," I smiled shyly. Gavin just stared at me, water dripping into his eyes from his hair. I felt the need to kiss him again, so I quickly changed the subject. "Hey, lets touch the starfish!"

We walked over and put our hands into the pool, the starfish felt squishy, lumpy and scaly, almost like a tongue. I was looking off to the side at the birds fighting when I felt something crawl upon my hand. I didn't want to flinch just in case it was a creature, I slowly turned my head towards my hand. It was Gavin's. I looked up into his shining emerald eyes and nearly melted. Gavin leaned in closer, while moving his other hand up to my waist. He pulled me forward inching his face closer to mine. 'I want to do this,' I thought. 'I want to kiss him.' I pulled back now staring towards the ground, "Gav, not in public I whispered." His face dropped instantly; his hands trembled and his eyes started to water. I do want to kiss him, I really do. I just don't have the guts to kiss him in public. What will everyone think!?
