A Better Best Friend

16

"Jack." I said. I didn't even know what to say, do I love him too? I have no idea. I love him as my best friend, but u don't think we have the connection of love yet. What do I say? Do I break his heart? Or do I make him happy? I don't know I don't know. I felt jacks hand touch my shoulder, and my mind stopped.

"Lys, you okay?" He asked. I looked up at him, "I think you zoned out for a second." He pulled me in and hugged me. My face was buried in my chest, I cleared my throat to speak.

"Jack I don't know if I love you, at least not yet." I said. He loosened his grip and exhaled sharply.

"Oh." He said in a disappointed tone. "It's okay, I guess I was just moving too fast." He pulled me in tighter and kissed the top of my head. I looked up at him and stared into his eyes, he smiled at me and my heart got warm. I leaned in and pecked him on the lips, then I gave him a softer longer kiss, he climbed on top of me and we began to kiss more, our mouths were synchronized each kiss have my body a burst of warmth. We continued making out for about 5 minutes before I pulled away, breathing heavily I said,

"I need to some water." Jack smiled and nodded.

"Yeah me too." We got up and went downstairs to get some water, I sat at the island in the middle of my kitchen and Jack sat on the counter next to the sink. "So how was your day?" He asked after a moment of silence.

"It was pretty boring the more I go to school the more I hate it." I said with a dull tone. Jack smiled,

"Sound pretty fun if you ask me." He said.

"Actually, in the car Emily told me she liked Jaeden and when we got to school we saw him kissing Sophia Lillis, and then when we talked to Finn about it, and then I talked to Sophia, and then at the end of the day we were walking to the car and Finn came running tripped and hit smack right in into the back of Emily's car." I said. Jack got a very long smirk on his face,

"And then what?" He asked.

"What?" I questioned.

"You said and then so much I couldn't help myself." He said. He hopped off of the counter.

"Oh I guess I didn't realize." I said. He walked up behind me and gave me a hug.

"It's ok, you can say whatever you want I won't judge you." He said. I rested my head back on his shoulder and looked up at him.

"I love you too Jacky." I said. My heart felt really warm inside, it was like my mind was congratulating me. Jack smiled and big cheek to cheek grin, it was actually really cute. He squeezed me harder and closes his eyes. "I wanna go back upstairs and cuddle." I said softly.

"Okay baby." He said letting go of me. We went upstairs and laid down. Jack covered us both up and then wrapped his arms around me. "Is it crazy that it took us this long to start dating?" He asked.

"No I don't think so." I said. Jack pulled me closer and moved a hand to my butt, I quickly moved it off. "Jack." I said sternly.

"Sorry, I thought it was okay." He said. I rolled over and looked at him.

"I don't want to get hurt, and I've never done any of that before." I said quietly.

"You've never done anything before?" He asked seeming very surprised.

"Yeah. I'm in no rush I don't need to do any of that stuff right now anyway."
I said proud of my self control. "Have you done anything?" I asked.

"Well I guess you could say I've done everything, but cross the finish line." He said nonchalant.

"Wait with who?" I asked. "We're best friends I didn't know this stuff." I'm generally surprised, what else hasn't he told me? 

"I've kissed 6 girls including 3, but I have only gotten sexual with 3." He said. He was staring me right in my eyes and then pulled me close, "Don't worry Lys, you aren't like the other girls. Honestly you aren't like any girl I've met, that's why I like you." He whispered in my ear. I melted hearing that, the words were sweet like sugar and it made my day.

"I've never met a guy like you either Jacky, I'm so glad I'm with you." I said.

Note-Awe so sweet...so sweet
