The Perfect Guy

Chapter 3

"OK! YES! I LIKE YOU!" I yell, but not loud enough that our friends can hear me. "I'm sorry, ok?  I have liked you for a while.  I have tried to stop an-and I can't.  I am really really sorry.  I wanted to tell you b-but we never really talked, an-and I didn't know if we were even frie-" I was cut off by a sudden movement that changed everything.  HE KISSED ME!  I didn't know what to do, so I just kissed him back.  He pulled away and we looked at each other in the eyes as he was still leaned over me.  I could stare into his beautiful blue eyes all day. "Woah, Ok then" I giggled out then smiled.  He laughed and returned a smile.  He sat back up, and helped me up "I like you too. I have since we first talked in class. When we became lab partners."

"Really?"

"Yea. I was always too nervous to tell you because I thought you didn't like me."

"But I do" I say looking at him. "Thankfully you do" He smiled at me which made me smile. I have been waiting for this for forever. "Lexie?" he says pulling me out of my trance I didn't realize I was in, I nod politely "Will you go out with me?" I stand there shocked, just looking at him.  I  nod my head and he scoops me into a big hug.  We were acting as if we had just gotten engaged or something.  We hadn't, but I felt that happy.  As we stand there hugging the timer starts going off. As we walk back to the living room we decide not to tell anyone.  Not until we are sure.  We walk back in as if nothing happened, but neither of us can stop smiling.  After a few more minutes of playing, the pizza gets here.  I answer the door and pay.  I bring the pizza into the living room and head to the kitchen for drinks. "What does everyone want to drink? We have Dr.Pepper, Sprite, Root Beer, and Pepsi." Courtney wanted root beer, David wanted pepsi, and Jackson wanted dr. pepper.  Easy. "Court, Could you help me?" I yell from the Kitchen. Next thing I know there is another set of hands grabbing cans from the fridge.  I thought it was Courtney, but it ended up being Jackson.  Why was Jackson helping me? "Courtney said that you needed help" he answered the question I was thinking about.  "Thanks" I say looking around trying to find a sharpie. I walked out and asked Court and she said in the office.  Jackson follows me and helps me find one.  When we are back I ask him for the sharpie back and he says no.  I look at him with a glare and he smiles childishly. I walk over to him and try to grab it, but fail because he is taller. "You want the marker? Kiss me for it"  I look at him annoyed.  "If I don't?" I reply.  A smirk appearing on his face "i'll tell them what actually happened in that room" I immediately realize who he means by them and stop. "You wouldn't?"

"Try me?" he says smiling.  I walk over to him and peck him on the lips.  He frowns and pulls me back in for another kiss. This one longer. I pull away after a few seconds and he says "Can I write the names on them?" I said I didn't care because I was a little annoyed at this point, but also blushing.  He writes them and I look at mine. It has my name, but the I is dotted with a heart.  I do that when I write people's names down, or put a heart for an O.  He looked at me smiling, and I just laugh.  We walk back in and eat while watching a movie.  The movie is halfway over and we finish our pizza.  The movie was boring so we continued playing truth or dare.  It was going fine until I got a dare where Jackson has to hold an ice cube on my chest till it melts. Thanks universe. We were told to do it in the bathroom so that it doesn't end up with water everywhere.  We are in the bathroom with ice and I sit on the counter, while he stands between my legs.  He sets them on top of my chest above my bra as we both stand there. Me and him both shirtless still. It is really cold so I let out a few curses here and there.  It is halfway gone and he moves it so it gets really cold again.  I am trying not to focus on it and talk to him like he is trying to do to me.  He says that if we are talking then it will distract me from the cold of the ice cube.  It is still really really cold. The talking isn't helping anymore and I am trying to think of something that won't make me think about it.  Nothing is working. Jackson can tell that because I keep quietly swearing under my breath.  He quickly leans down and starts kissing me again like before. It caught me by surprise, but I wasn't mad.  Instead I put my hand on his cheek as he kissed me. He stops and says "we don't need this" and drops the ice cube into the sink and he continues to kiss me.  We do this for a minute then realize that we should get back to them. I notice that it is 8 and I don't have to be back till about 10-10:30.  We came up with an idea to leave and go by his house.  I texted Jake and told him to text me in a few minutes saying mom said I needed to get home for something.  He didn't ask why, he just said ok. We kept playing until I got the text from my brother saying I had to go home.  Jackson just said he had to go do homework, but he didn't want to be the first to leave and seem like he was bored or something.  They didn't care.  We said goodbye and started to walk to our houses but met around the corner.
