I open my phone and look at my texts. He fell asleep after all. I don't blame him, it was late. I look down at the last texts sent and sigh.
K🌻: I like you
K🌻: you don't have to say it back or anything
K🌻: I just wanted to know that
I left it at that because what would I say. I would have to face him later anyway. It's almost 8 and I'm still in bed. I dragged myself out and get into the shower. If I were a girl this would've been easy. I would've done my hair and makeup and picked out a dozen outfits. I would've texted back that I loved him, but I wasn't and I wouldn't do any of those things now.
I put on the baggiest jeans I've ever worn and an old shirt. That should make him stop looking at me with those piercing brown eyes.
When I get to the coffee shop were supposed to meet, Kevin is already there. I almost didn't recognize him. He's not wearing make-up. He's not wearing bright colors but a dark blue Yankee shirt and black jeans. No heels, no flare. I look down at his nails and some of them are chipped. He lifts one hand and bites one nail.
"Kevin," I said approaching him. He looks up at me removing his hand and smiles weakly. I try to smile back but he looks terrible. Bags under his eyes, his lip is still busted from yesterday.
"You okay, "I ask.
"I'm fine," he says. I can see in his eyes that he's lying but I leave it.
"Is Aiden with you?" he asks looking around.
"Mr. Taylor?"I say. How is he on first name bases with my teacher?
"Yeah," Kevin says.
"No he said that he'll be late," I said recalling the text he sent me earlier. It was kind of weird having a teacher's numbers but it was only for professional reasons. It wasn't like we're friends.
"So it's just us, "I say blushing. Kevin smiles. He's really beautiful even without makeup and even though he looks sick.
"Why are you looking at me like that," he asks looking away sheepishly. I look away too. I've never seen him get so flustered.
"S-sorry, "I say. A waiter comes over to our table. We order breakfast and sit in silence.
"So," Kevin says."let's play a game."
"Not footsies, "I say. Last time he won and I had to walk around the mall in heels. I was soo not losing this time.
"No its a question game," he said.
"Oh sure, "I say.
"Okay since your 17 I'll ask 17 questions," He says.
"Oh boy," I say." okay I'm ready."
"Do you have siblings?" he asks. Random but okay.
"Yes," I say." He's in his 30's and lives in Marilyn."
"Are you guys close?" he asks.
"Is that your second question," I say smiling.
"No, yes just answer it," he says giggling.
"No he has some...issues, "I say." okay next question."
"Ookaay," he says."do you like chocolate?"
"Of course, "I say." are these questions things you wanna know or are they just random?"
"Is that your first question or no?" Kevin says smiling.
"Haha very funny," I say rolling my eyes.
