Matt's POV
__________
I woke up thinking of Jo, and how her plump peach lips were kissing mine. I think she might like me. She might not, I mean it's weird. You can't just kiss someone like that and not have feelings.
I grabbed my phone texted JoAnne.

"Do you like me?
-Matt"

After I pressed send I regretted it.

Beep!

It was Jo...
~~~~
"Matty? Are you stupid? Of course I do! ;)
-JoJo"

When I read that I smiled. We texted a lot and she came over. I was home alone, no parents just me and her. She came in and sat on the couch.
"Hey." She smiles.
"Hey..."
"Why would you ask if I like you?" She says inching closer to me.
"Well, I don't know I just never knew you had interests in me..."
"Matt, I've been thinking about you since last week non-stop!"
"JoAnne, that's how I've felt about you since 7th grade!"
"..." She just sat there.
"Sorry...I didn't mean to say that." I say embarrassed of her silence.
"Are you serious?" she says looking sad.
"Yeah, but you always liked...Aaron."
"Matt, ever since you kissed me it was like Aaron disappeared. I know it's so cheesy and stupid but, it's like that kiss changed everything."
"Really?" I smiled.
"Yeah, honestly I felt nothing when Aaron kissed me! But when you did...i-it made me realize how good of a person you are and how much I...I love you."
I sat there as my jaw hit the floor, she loves me. I grabbed her face and kissed her. I could kiss her forever. "I love you too..." I whispered. I could feel her smile up against my lips.
"Matt?"
"Yeah?"
"Do you think we're going to fast?" she pauses.
"A little, but honestly don't mind."
"Me either, but I don't know I don't want to rush into anything..."
I backed away from her and looked at her, she seemed like she wasn't really ready to go any farther.
"Well why don't we just hang out like we usually do..."
She snuggled up on my chest and we watched TV. I started to play with her long brown curly hair.
"Don't tell anyone that we kissed..." she whispers.
"I won't..."

Jo's POV
__________
I laid there on his chest, just thinking to myself how much I loved him. I've had these feelings before but pushed them away, because of Aaron.
I always liked him, but I guess I never knew...until now. I was weird. I noticed Matt was asleep, he was so beautiful. I kissed his forehead and left.
I walked home in the rain until I saw Aaron. I tried to walk away from him but he followed. "Hey Jo!" he says running over to me.
"Hi." I give a shy smile trying not to be rude.
"Look, I know your avoiding me because of the kiss. It's okay if you felt something, because so did I!"
"Aaron, I like you...but I felt n-"
"Jo, I already know! You felt more. That's why I'm telling you." He says all happy like. He then kisses you leaving you in shock.

I noticed JoAnne had left her jacket so I got up and ran to give it to her. When I walked out I saw something that brought me to tears.
