Only A Bet

Tini's POV

It's been weeks since Jorge and I have been hanging around so much and I really love it.

I really want to give him another chance but the 5% of my mind is still unsure.

We were walking through the park like we always do these past few weeks. It relaxes both of us walking there together with no one but ourselves.

"It's even more peaceful today."I close my eyes and let the wind blow my hair.

"Yeah it is."Jorge agrees with me.

"Have you seen anything more beautiful?" I say when I look at the sunset.

"Yes, yes I have."I turn to face him and he was looking at me.

I went from the lighter shade of red to the darkest.

"Cheesy."

"You know it."

"Idiot."

"Beautiful."

"I will not take that as a compliment so I have an excuse to slap you."I giggle and attempt to slap him but he grabs my hand and pulls me closer.

My giggle ended in a light smile as we were inches away from each other's face.

I grab his cheek but then poke his nose and push his face away while laughing.

"Oh come on! You can't just tease me like that!"He shouts at me while he runs behind me.

"I think that I just did."

Things like this happened very often. Either I was the one teasing him or him teasing me.

After a couple of minutes I stop running and try to catch up my breath.

As I turn around Jorge just runs up to me and drops us both on the ground.

We started laughing like maniacs, still him on top of me.

When I start breathing again properly, he raises his head and looks at me.

The sunset lit up his eyes and made them look some kind of golden.

"Woah, your eyes are even more pretty in the sunset."

He smiles at me.

I just keep looking at them. They are this mixture of brown, green and yellow gold.

I realise that he was leaning in closer and I just let him. I wanted to see what was he gonna do.

He gives me a peck on the nose and I just giggle.

"And I love your giggle."

"Oh come on now!"I grabbed his face and kissed his lips.

Things like that happened as well.

We would share a kiss on the lips once in a while and it would make me feel so sure that it was full of love.

I just didn't know what was holding me back from accepting him.

After a while we just lay next to each other and talk until the sky is full of stars.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I go inside of the house and first thing I hear is my dad coughing violently.

"Dad?"

"Oh."He coughs again."Hi sweetie."

"Are you okay?" I ask worried.

"Yes, yes I am fine."

"Dad, you don't sound fine."
