(One hour later)
-
Milo and I finish our work and decide to go to the park together. I gather my things and put my backpack on, walking to the door with him.
(At the park)
-
Milo and I make our way over to the swings, sitting next to each other and talking. I kick my feet a little, playfully. And to my surprise, he comes up behind me and starts to push me. "You look like you need some help." He says, giggling. My face turns red and I smile faintly. He grabs the chains, pulling it back and pushing me. I squeal as my face goes hot, kicking my legs and giggling. I hear him laugh as he continues to push me. After a few minutes, I drag my feet and manage to stop myself. He walks up in front of me and smiles. "Your adorable." He says, leaning forward against the swing, making him tower above me. My face turns a light shade of red from his words as my heart starts pounding in my chest. "I-I am not!" I manage out, pouting my lips and looking down shyly. He snickers to himself, tilting my head up to make eye-contact with him. I subconsciously let out a soft breath, my face turning a deep shade of crimson as I bite my lip. He smirks and leans closer to me, to the point where our lips are inches apart. I feel a wave of emotion rush over my entire body. I glance at his lips, then back up to his eyes, to see his cheeks turn a light pink shade. I hesitantly lean towards him, tilting my head and placing my lips against his. His eyes widen, but soon soften and flutter closed. I feel him kiss me back and I wrap my arms around his neck, pulling him closer to me. He gently places his hands on my hips and tilts his head to deepen the kiss slightly. I faintly smile against his lips, thinking to myself. This is what I've wanted, from the minute I met him. After a few minutes he pulls back, smiling. I shyly look down, licking my lips and quickly glancing back up to him. I see him smile, and I smile in return. Suddenly I hear a random woman yelling at us, "Excuse me?! This is a public park, with children in it! How dare you show such an act!" She yells, crossing her arms with a face of disgust. I look at Milo, only to see him desperately trying to hold in a laugh. I giggle, leaning my head to his chest. Normally I would apologize, but something made me just not care. I feel Milo place his hand in the small of my back, helping me up out of the swing. I look up at him and smile. "Maybe we should go somewhere more private." He says, chuckling. I nod my head and let out a giggle, gathering my things. We walk out of the park and over to the sidewalk, walking slowly next to each other. "So.." I say quietly. He glances over at me, "So.." He says in response, "Today was..interesting." I smile, kicking at a pebble on the sidewalk. "Yeah, it defiantly was." I say, looking up at him. He stops walking and turns to face me, "When we, you know" he pauses, "Did you feel anything?" I look up at him, smiling faintly. "Yeah, I did." I say in a hushed voice, twiddling my thumbs and looking down shyly. He tilts my head up and I see him smile, "I did too." He says, his cheeks becoming flushed. We gaze into each other's eyes for a moment, not knowing what to say. "I guess this is our first date." Milo says shyly, looking away and biting his lip. I feel shivers run down my spine as I look at his lip, but quickly shake away the feeling. I nod, standing on my tip-toes and pecking his cheek, "I guess it is." I say smiling. He looks back at me, "I really, really like you." He says, cupping my face and kissing me softly. I hum quietly against his lips, wrapping my arms around his neck. I pull back and look up at him, "I really like you too." I say in response. He smiles, moving his hands to my shoulders. My phone vibrates and I shyly check it. It was my mother.
Mom: Come home, I made dinner
I sigh sadly, quickly typing out my response.
Raphael: Ok, on my way now
I put my phone back in my pocket and look up at Milo. "I have to go home." I say, frowing. He looks down at me, "Can I walk you home?" He says, fidgeting with my jacket. I nod my head and smile. He holds out his hand and I place mine ontop of it, intertwining our fingers. He chuckles under his breath and we start to walk down the sidewalk together. I like this. I really like this. But my heart sinks when I think about Vivian. I was more than ready to break up with her, but I was so scared. I didn't know what she would do. And my parents, what would they say? Would I even tell them? I get lost in my thoughts before realizing Milo was looking at me, "You okay?" He says, nudging my arm. I nod my head and sigh, "Yeah just, lost in thought." I say. He nods his head slowly, "Is it about your parents?" He says, tilting his head a little. I shrug my shoulders, "Not just that. There's this girl, that I was dating. And I told her I wanted to break up with her, for obvious reasons, and she..won't let me." I say, feeling my body tense up. Milo hums, looking down at the sidewalk and then back up to me, "Well whatever happenes, I'm here." He says, giving me a quick peck on the cheek. I smile, feeling relieved that he wasn't upset. We reach the apartment complex and walk in, standing beside the elevator. "I'm glad we got to..work together, today." Milo says laughing. I giggle, looking down at my feet and then back up to him. "I am too. I'll text you later tonight, you'll still be up right?" I say, swinging his hand, which was still holding mine. He nods, pecking my lips and whispering against them, "Wouldn't miss it for the world." I feel my face go hot and shivers run down my spine, pushing him away and smiling, "You're a dork!" I say giggling. He smirks, finger-gunning and walking backwards towards the door, "That's me." He says, turning around and opening the door, "I'll talk to you later tonight." I nod my head, waving goodbye and walking into the elevator.
(Author's note: I dunno if they're moving too fast, but I couldn't wait to get into all the romantic stuff <3)
