John and I walked to the park together. He had been silent the whole way, so when we got to the park, I hoped he would talk to me and not waste my time.

"Where are we going?"

"Ummm," He looks around and seems to decide, "Over there by the fountain. I think it will work."

"Ok." I wonder what he means by works, but decide I won't ask.

When we get there, we sit down. I notice that everything feels like it's in a movie, a set. I also notice that John is looking at his fingers. He's playing with them.

"Are you okay?"

"Yes. Why would you say that?"

"The look on you're face tells me that you have something to tell, something deep and important."

"Very poetic."

"Thank you, but say what you wanted to say."

"I want to start with thanking you," He turns to me, looking me in the eye, "You accepted me before even knowing my name. I will always be thankful, even if you forget me. I will always remember this day. I want you to know that this day will keep up my will to keep going, to keep fighting. Thank you."

"It's no problem, life doesn't need to be perfect to be beautiful and wonderful."

"I like you already."

"I'm glad. I need some friends. Sometimes life can be lonely." I look at the sky. I hope he doesn't want to not be friends. I look back at him when he talks again.

"You now, Scarlett, I think I like you more than you think." I notice him coming a bit closer to me. I feel his lips on mine. I'm surprised, bit I don't pull away. I think I like him too.

After our kiss, I look to the fountain. "I've never kissed someone before."

"Really? You haven't? I thought someone like you would have!"

"No, you?"

"No."

"Oh. You're a good kisser. I'm surprised you haven't."

Hello everybody! I hope you enjoyed!

Can you tell I was reading quotes before doing this? I also didn't know what was going to happen until it started. I don't know what I was planning to do earlier, so I made it up as I went!

I know the whole kissing thing was quite early, but I was in that mood because of those quotes. Oh well. I hope you liked it anyways.
