Johnny's POV
Today was Saturday. I already finished my homework so I didn't have anything to do. I decided to go for a walk and have an ice cream as it was a sunny day.
While I was walking, a feeling of nostalgia took over me. It had been so long since I have had an ice cream. The sun was hitting my face in a pleasant way and I was grateful for the weather. When I arrived I saw two people on a table. I instantly recognised them. Brandon and Kenzie. What is this jerk trying to do? And Mackenzie? I thought she was really shy and know look at her! Going out with Brandon! It took me ages to call her Kenzie and they are acting like best friends! Anyways, I decided to tag along to their little date.
"Hey." I said. "Mind if I join?"
"Actually, yes." Brandon replied.
"Well, since I don't care about what you think, I'm just gonna sit down with you guys." I told him. They were shocked by my response but I pretended I didn't notice. The one thing I did notice is that I haven't order my ice cream and I think they were also aware of that.
"I might go to order an ice cream. What do you recommend me Kenz?" I asked her with a charming smile.
"Any flavour is fine. Everything is good in this shop." She said while looking to Brandon for approvance. He nodded.
I turned around to go and pick the ice cream. When I was finished I headed back to the table and what I saw there wasn't pleasant at all. Brandon was kissing Kenzie's cheek. I went there putting to much force on each step, letting them know that I was coming. They turned their heads in my direction.
"Hey, bro. I gotta go. My mum needs me home." He informed me. I simply nodded.
"Bye Kenz." He said while waving. He walked away and I was left alone with Kenzie.
"So... You and Brandon, uh?" I asked her. She looked at me with surprise written all over her face.
"No. We are just friends." She explained and I sneered.
"Really? I don't believe it."
"Why do you care anyways?" I was surprised by her comeback.
"Since we are friends,maybe?" We fell into a deep silence and she just continued to eat her ice cream. I couldn't think of any other thing to talk about so I mirrored her actions and started eating my ice cream.
"I should probably leave." I heard her mumble, getting up.
"No! Please, stay." I asked her. She sat back down and looked at me. That's when I realised she had beatiful eyes. To anyone else they would seem plain brown eyes, but for me they were pretty brown orbs. The way the light illuminated her eyes made them even prettier. I also noticed that she didn't wear make up. You could see her features without mascara or foundation disturbing the view. I cleard my throat and broke the eye contact.
"Maybe we could go for a walk?" I offered.
"Okay." She answered with a small blush on her cheeks. I smiled at the view.
I decided I would take her to the park I went on my childhood. We were walking in silent but it wasn't an awkward one. It was comfortable. We were enjoying each other presence. Or at least that was what I thought. With Kenzie you never know.
"Where are we going?" She asked me.
"To the park I used to go when I was kid." I replied. She nodded her head.
"Wanna play something?" I suggested.
"Depends what kind of game."
"It' called: 'Let's get to know each other'."
"I am pretty sure you made that up right now." She was starting to be more confident and I liked it.
"Probably. But that's not important. Anyways, it consists in asking questions to each other." I explained.
"Okay. What's your favourite colour?"
"Are you serious?"
"No I'm Black."(A/N: Any Potterhead out there?)
"What? Nevermind. You are supposed to ask juicy questions and you asked me what's my favourite colour?! That's not how the game goes!" I said to her while chuckling at her innocence.
"Since there are no rules I can ask you whatever I want. Now answer." She replied.
"Okay.  My favourite colour is green. Yours?"
"Blue. Favourite food?" She asked me, and I sighed and shooked my head.
"Any type of junk food. Specially Mcadonald's."
"I also like Mcadonald's! But my favourite food is pizza." She informed me. We were walking around the park and I was already tired.
"Do you want to sit in the bench?" I offered.
"That would be nice." We sat together and continued talking about irrelevant things. It was enjoyable talking with Mackenzie. I could be myself. I didn't have to pretend to be someone that I wasn't.
It was starting to get late and I decided we should head back to our houses.
We were first going to Kenzie' house and then I was going home.
We already arrived and I was about to go when something grabbed my arm.
"Johnny? It was fun hanging out with you. Thanks." Mackenzie said.
"I had fun too. Can I get a hug now?" I asked her hoping she would say yes.
"Sure." And then I felt two arms embracing me, but as soon as it came it was gone. Kenzie sais bye and went inside her house and after a couple of seconds I went to my house. I warm feeling spread through my chest and it wasn't gone even the next day
