Lilly and Hayes

Lilly and Hayes

There's this guy I've had a crush on for all eternities. Not literally, but I feel like I've liked him forever.

None other than, the Hayes Grier. Quarterback, #7 at my school. Also know as, the guy everybody wants.

Hayes and I are friends - just friends, to him. He has no idea how much I want so much more then the friend label.

Friend zone. It sucks balls, man.

Sucks even worse that my SISTER can get him to date her, but I can't. Were identical twins, for crying out loud.

I snapped out of whatever trance I was in and focused back on the science squid dissection. This is disgusting by the way. I'm making hayes and his friend do all the work.

Or I was. Until I felt a tentacle hit my hand. I nearly screamed, but I didn't in case I'd get in trouble.

"Hayes!" I whisper-yelled.

"Guess what, Lilly?"

"What?"

Hayes scratched the top of his head smiling sheepishly. "I kinda broke up with your sister."

Why the heck is he smiling? I should kick his dumb butt... But then I recognized that smile. The lie smile.

I knew hayes well, whenever he'd smile - like the way he just did, with his left eye brow raised slightly higher then the right - like that I knew he was lying.

"She broke up with you didn't she?" Auna really liked Hayes though... "Hayes! You cheated on her!"

"I'm sorry, Lil-" but I didn't wait to listen to the rest. I got up and left the lab.

HAYES:

Lilly I'm sorry

-

I only kissed Jordan

-

Please don't be mad at me

-

Please

-

Lilly

-

Welll, please still come to my game tonight, it's the game before homecoming

I ignored each and every one of his text messages. As I turned down the hall, I saw my sister. Huh, what're the chances?

"Auna? Are you okay?" She was crying. Oh I swear I'm going to rip hayes' nose off of his face.

"I did something really, really bad, Lilly."

We both sat down against the lockers.

"I paid Jordan to kiss Hayes."

"Why?!"

"Because I cheated on Hayes and I didn't want to hurt him. So I made it look like he hurt-" then I got up and left her too.

Why is it the people you seem so close to always do stupid - ugh. I'm the one at fault. I walked out on both of them while they were explaining. Everybody makes mistakes.

"Auna, I'm sorry."

"I need advice, Lilly."

"Tell Hayes the truth. You guys are over anyways." I shrugged.

Auna nodded.

Later that night, I did go to hayes' game. I had no reason not to. I had to say sorry after. I was late to the game, about 20 minutes.

I didn't sit down in the stands because everyone else was standing. If I sat, I wouldn't be able to see the slightest bit.

It was freezing out here. Felt colder then a freezer. I would know. When I was 5 I stuck myself inside of one. Let's just say it was extremely hot that day. The sudden rain drops were not reassuring at all.

I had no idea what was going on, but I saw that number 7, hayes, had the ball. He ran from one end up 3/4 of the entire field but then passed the ball to twenty-three.

Boo's erupted in the crowd. I know nothing about football, but even I know hayes should've ran it all the way - it was a for sure touchdown.

But no. Hayes was now running up the bleachers. Toward me. He pushed through the dozens of people in front of me.

Basically no one was paying attention to the game now. Twenty-three had already made the touchdown.

everyone's eyes were on us. We were on the big screen. The timer had stopped.

Finally, hayes reached me.

"You came?!"

"Of course. I'm really sorry about-" I was cut off by hayes lips touching mine. This is what it felt like? To kiss the guy you've loved since you were eight?

"I love you, Lilly. I always have. Ever since I cut off your pigtail in 3rd grade." Dear lord, I remember that day. I was crying so much. My 15 inch long pigtail was cut down to 6 inches. The crowd - the parts that heard - chuckled. "Please be my girlfriend? I can't take yet another second of having to deal with friend zone."

"Yes." I bit my lip momentarily, but a large smile took over my lips. From a few people away, I could see Auna. She was smiling at me.

Right as hayes reconnected his lips with mine another gust of rain fell. I laughed at the timing.

"Get back out there, Hayes." I chuckled pushing my new boyfriend back toward the field.

Everyone, even some people from the opposing team, started cheering. I couldn't help the mad blush on my face.

Not that I cared. 7 years of painfully being in love with Hayes, all in the shadows, and now I'm finally able to call him my boyfriend.

Hayes Grier...my boyfriend. Man, did I like the sound of that!
