Waverly POV
I work up to the sweet sound of birds singing, I opened my eyes to the realization that I was not alone in my bed, we where laying face to face only a couple of inches apart, I smile to myself just by looking at her. I keep admiring her beauty for a while before getting out of bed, I open the door and close it as silent as possible so that I don't wake up Nicole.
I look at the clock 7:30 am, gosh why did I wake up so early?!
I walk into the kitchen to make some coffee when I notice a note on the table,
" Hey Waverly, I'm sorry that I'm doing it this way but you where still asleep when I left, so I had to go out of town to deal with be court because of my son, could you please keep the diner running while I'm gone ? It would mean a lot to me!
Hook "
I read the note out loud
" do you need help with that ? " a voice from behind me says, in shook I turn around to see Nicole in the doorway " with the diner I mean" she continues saying, without responding to her question I simply say " gosh don't ever scare me like that again " I look at her with a serious expression on my face, she looks at me and than starts laughing out of nowhere " it's not funny" I say trying to make her stop, but she just wouldn't, " Nicole" I half yell "what are you gonna do about it ?" She asks teasing me, I don't respond, But without thinking twice I sprint over to her and start tickling her. "Stop, please stop" she yells in between laughs. " what will I get for it ?" I ask stopping for a moment, she was laying on the floor me half way on top of her, we are looking each other right in the eyes, and in this exact moment, I wont nothing more than simply kiss her, wait what ?!
We are just friends I tell myself, Nicole sits up but I don't move, our legs still intervened, we both move a little closer to each other , not breaking eye contact for even a second, but I then look at her lips imagining what they taste like, she leans forward, I guess she noticed me staring, she kept coming closer and closer, where we gonna kiss right now !? I ask myself
But then before anything else could happen the door of the diner opens " hello, anybody here ?" a male voice says
We both stand up in shock " hello" I say walking out of the kitchen, " I'm sorry for coming here like his, my name is Jacob, I know Nicole and her mom said I can find her here" he says, before I could process everything Nicole walked out of the kitchen "hey Jacob" she said walking past me and hugging the boy, " how long has it been ?" He asks but Nicole doesn't say anything she simply smiles and turns to me " so this is my friend Waverly" she then says, I smile at him and he smiles back, we all stay silent for a while and it is beginning to be really awkward, " so your mom said that you can show me around town" he says breaking the silence, " yeah sure, do you want to start right now ?" Nicole questions him, he simply nods " okay well let me get my shoes and car keys and than we'll be ready to go" Nicole continues talking. I just stand there, thinking about the almost kiss just a few moments ago, the guy was staring at me but I couldn't bother talking, I looked at him and he opened his mouth to talk but before we could Nicole walked back into the room " let's go" she says , he walks out behind her, then the door closes and I stand there alone in the diner not sure of what to do, the door to the diner opens again and I look up, I see Nicole walking up to me she leans in and gives me a kiss on my cheek and says " goodbye see you later" and with that she was out of the door once again leaving me alone with my thoughts.
Nicole POV
As we leave in the car I constantly think about Waverly, what have I done ?! Should I have kissed her ?! Gosh what if I ruined things between us ?! " so where are we going?" Jacob asks interrupting my thoughts, I think for a minute " um, I guess the city center for the start, it is really beautiful" I say, he looks at me and smiles, the rest of the car ride was quite, as we pull up the parking spots.
We step out and he puts his arm around my shoulder " so here we have our beautiful city center with old buildings and wonderful vintage streets" I say starting to walk so that his arm falls from my shoulders, but without luck he follows me step by step and keeps his arm around me, gosh this this is uncomfortable.
We walk Into a couple of stores and I explain to him the things that I know about the city. We go to a cafe to get coffee and cake, we sit down at a table and enjoy our snack, " you know, I always knew that we were met to be" Jacob suddenly says, I look at him in confusion " excuse me ?" I say with big eyes, we stare at each other for a while and then he says " what ?! Don't you think that ? I mean we've spend the whole day together and our connection is simply obvious, you can't deny it" he says posh " well, sorry to say it that way but I don't have feelings for you and I never will" I say standing up and leaving some money on the table, before he could say anything else I walk out back to the car" wait Nicole " he yells after me but I didn't stop walking, " Nicole" he yells again, " leave me alone Jacob" I scream, I walk as fast as I can but he is still faster than me, he steps in front for me and grabs my arm " Nicole wait" he says again looking me in the eyes, " I'm sorry for being so forward, I guess we need some more time, and than later try dating" he says, I shake my head " no listen Jacob, we will never be a thing" I say, " but why?! Just give me a chance" he begs " no look Jacob, you are a nice guy but you are not really my type, like not at all" I explain, " wait?! What are you saying?!" He asks in confusion " Jacob I'm gay" I admit looking down " excuse me ?!" He says" I look up at him " you heard me Jacob, I'm into girls" I say with a confidence voice, " so that Waverly girl?!" He starts talking but I interrupt him quickly " No, no she doesn't even know that I like girls" he looks at me " but you have feelings for her Right ?!" He questions, I look up to the sky " I'm not sure, I might, i never felt this way about someone so I guess I do, but how am I supposed to be sure ?!" I say Unconfident
" well if you never felt this way, I guess it is something, but I would still wait a while see how it develops, and get to know her a little better, and if after you still feel the same, go for it, tell her or show her in some way" he explains to me
I smile at him and we get back into the car and out journey continues all through town up into the hills and back to the diner, where Waverly was still surviving people, you can really see the stress on her face, shit I think to myself, I wanted to help her and instead I'm out having fun while she is working her ass off, why am i such a shit person?! I question myself. I saw goodbye to Jacob and walk into the diner, where Waverly was already smiling at me as I walk through the door. I smile back and walk behind the counter and give her a hug, one of the best feelings on earth!
