PRETTYMUCH Imagines

Gentlemen ||Zion Kuwonu||

I looked up and dreaded the view my eyes had fallen upon. I swear these stairs will be the death of me. I began walking up only to stop for a bit at the 5th step. As I took a breath I felt a hand being placed on my shoulder.

"Do you need any help?" I turned around to see the boy I admire. He was wearing a grey long sleeved shirt with a checkered design that ran along the side of his sleeves. His beanie was placed to where a few of his dreads were sticking out.

"Please." I panted out from both being nervous and exhausted. He carried my oxygen tank in one hand and led me up the stairs.

We both had 5th hour together (which is where we were currently going). We reached the double doors that led into our U.S History classroom. I went to reach for the handle but Zion playfully swatted it away.

"Not-uh. Allow me." A cheeky smile appeared on his face while he opened the door.

"Wow, such a gentleman." I smiled as a single nod of appreciation was directed towards me.

We were about 10 minuets into class when a strange feeling arose within me. My heart started racing, which worried me. My hands started to shake and I almost couldn't breathe. I quickly reached for the water bottle that I kept in my book-bag.

I took a drink of water and as I was putting it back I saw Zion looking at me. We shared eye contact for a good 3 seconds or so, which felt like an eternity, before he turned his head and averted his eyes back to the board.

I kept my eyes on him; he looked back over at me and saw I was watching him. He let out a small laugh and smiled as he, once again, averted his attention to the board.

I was on my way to my car when I heard my name being called. I turned around to see Zion jogging in my direction.

"Hey! Y/n wait up!" Once he finally caught up to me he was out of breath.

"Hey, I'm sorry to do this but, would you mind giving me a ride home? The boys left without me again." I couldn't help but to stare into his beautiful brown eyes.

"Yeah sure it's no problem." I began to feel butterflies in my stomach knowing that I'd get to spend time with my crush.

"Great thank you so much you're a lifesaver." He got into the passenger side and put his seatbelt on.

"Don't mention it kid." A confused expression appeared on his face. "Kid?" He questioned.
"Don't feel special I call everyone kid." Truth be told he was the only one I've ever called kid and it was so I wouldn't accidentally friend zone him.

We were at the main intersection and Z looked like he was dying to tell me something.
"Hey, y/n listen, umm we don't...I mean, I don't...well...I'm not in a hurry to get home and if you aren't either maybe we could stop by to get ice cream first?" A smile appeared on my face as he finished his question and I knew exactly where to take him.

"Sure I know a good ice cream place." I pulled into the parking lot and I noticed Z had been fidgeting with his hands the whole ride.

"Could I umm... could I tell you something?" I turned off the engine and turned to face him.

"Is everything alright?" I could tell he was really nervous which I really didn't understand why.

"I know this might sound random but umm... I kinda like you and have for quite some time now, and I was wondering, if you felt the same or something, then maybe, you know after talking for a while and getting to know each other a bit more, we could maybe go out? If you feel the same and if you want." My heart exploded. Never in my lifetime did I think Caleb Zion Kuwonu would ask me out.

It took me a bit to process everything he said and to make sure I wasn't dreaming. "I would love that." A huge smile appeared on his face.

We both got out and went inside for ice cream. We talked and got to know each other a bit more. It came time to drop him off. He invited me inside and said we could watch a movie in his room to which I agreed.

The both of us didn't really pay much attention to the movie; we mostly cuddled and continued to talk. I eventually had to leave. We exchanged phone numbers and we continued to talk over the phone.

I felt like my life had been complete. The boy I've liked since middle school just said he liked me, we cuddled, technically went on a date, and now I have his number. I knew this would be the start of something beautiful.

{A/N: I hope you all liked this imagine. I had previously been working on it during class actually. I hate to ask but it would be greatly appreciated if you guys could vote, and share with other fellow BEANZ, please and thank you.}
