Jamal walked me to my locker and stood there just staring at me "What?" I ask laughing "Nothing" he says shaking his head at me "Why are you looking at me then?"
"Because I can't believe it took me so long to finally push April away to get what who I truly wanted"
"Aww you're too sweet" I say while touching his face.
He grabs my hand and holds it there while staring into my eyes "I'm sorry about yesterday" he says softly so no one can hear him.
I smile at him "It's okay Ja. I get that you were busy" he smiles before softly kissing me and I feel like he's taking me up to heaven.
It's a sweet kiss which doesn't last long "NO PDA in the hall ways! Move along" Miss Preston yells as she walks past.
I bury my head into Jamal chest and he laughs "How embarrassing" I say and he holds me tightly while kissing my head
"Come on let me walk you to class?"
"Okay" i close my locker door and Jamal wraps his arm around my waist pulling me close to him.
He walks me to kiss gives me a another small kiss before walking away "See you after class?" he calls over his shoulder
"Okay" we had a class together before a free period next and we we're going to hang out on the oval together afterwards.
Although being in a relationship is new to me, it sort of felt like nothing either. Jamal and i were already close friends the only difference was I got cuddles and kisses which I must admit I was starting to enjoy, the way my heart raced and my breathing hitches makes the butterflies flutter around in my stomach. I actually loved it, weird I know but I did. This was new to me but I was going to enjoy this while i could. I can't believe I hadn't taken the plunge before and just did it. I mean yeah April had him first but it was years ago, they haven't been together since and I loved Jamal I really do. He's always been there to help me up when I was down or when no one else saw how I was or cared. He'd always work it out and come cheer me up. He is my best friend and now boyfriend and I like it this way.
After class Jamal and I walked hand in hand to the oval, where no one else was. We decided to sit at the bottom of a huge large tree down the other side of the oval away from preying eyes "Here?" Jamal asks as we reached the tree
"Yep" I answer smiling.
We place our bags down and Jamal sits first then pulls me so i fall into his lap. We laugh as we make ourselves comfortable. Jamal was leaning on the tree, I was in between his legs but my head resting on his arm while his other arm stroked my hair "So Ja, tell me what it's like?"
"What? What is like?"
"Sex?" I blurt out, he coughs uneasily and shifts around before relaxing again
"I don't know. Different I guess?"
"Different? How so?" i look up at him and he looks down at me
"Brook, just because I've slept with a few girls doesn't mean I'll expect it from you?"
"I know but if we get serious enough. I might want you to be my first?" he sighs
"I'm not going to do that?"
"Why?" i ask sitting up looking directly at him
"You’re not ready and I'm not pushing you into anything you do want to do"
"You won't be I promise. If I do it'll be because I love you more than I do now and I just hope that you'll realise what a big ask it will be?"
"I know it is but I'll know when I'm ready but will you?" he shrugs
"I don't know. Let’s worry about that later okay. Sex isn't everything in a relationship!"
"I know but I wanted to bring it up now so that you know I will think about it eventually"
"Okay. Now shh and come here" he pulled me up so our faces were now level and he cupped his hand behind my head and pulled me towards him so our lips could touch.
They were soft and sweet, we started out slowly and got repositioned as the kiss lasted longer and got more intense. I didn't want to stop, my heart my racing and my stomach was fluttering and it was getting harder to breath but I didn't want to stop or pull away. His hands wondered down my body and gripped me. I gasped a little which allowed him deeper into my mouth, our tongues were dancing together like they were meant to be. It was beautiful.
