Upstairs,Matt and I had been talking. We talked about how all those guys were jerks and why he hangs out with them.

"They aren't ALL jerks," he explained. "The only jerk is Gilinsky. Everyone else is just like me.. Unless you think I'M a jerk? Then I'll just go if you do" he started.

"Shut up! You're not a jerk and you know it!" I nudged his shoulder.

He smiled. Wow. His smile is..Amazing.

"What? Do I have something in my teeth?" He caught me staring.

"No,your smile's just so gorgeous." I said without even acknowledging it. It just sort of came out,but I didn't take it back. Instead, I think I smiled too because he said,"Not as gorgeous as yours. Actually,your whole body! Well I mean..not saying that I look at your body,but if I DID,It would be gorgeous. I..uh. Aw geez. " he sounded like Josh from Drake&Josh,so I laughed.

We laid down,talking and thinking about various things. We drifted into a deep sleep. Both of us,just on my bed. This was nice. This is what I needed.

I woke up and I remembered my dream. It was so crazy, it felt so real!

I had gone to a party with at least over 200 people and I went upstairs and saw the jerky jerk Gilinsky guy. He wanted to BANG me!! I slapped him and said no. Then I went downstairs to finally meet him. Matt. Then after the party,we went back to my place and just talked. No funny business. We just had a decent conversation.

Wait a minute,that actually DID happen?? Oh crap. Did we do anything? I lay still on my bed,eyes still closed thinking about if Matt was still lying next to me.

I slowly turned my head and opened my eyes. He was there,lightly snoring. His mouth was slightly open and baby sounds came out. He was so adorable!

I got up slowly and surely,making sure he wouldn't wake up.

Well that didn't work...

"Hi.." Matt said,rubbing his eyes. He rose and I noticed he was shirtless. Had we done something last night?

"Oh..Hi,I uh was..just waking up,I had to...pee?" I made up and excuse and he chuckled. "We didn't DO anything last night,did we..?" I asked.

"No. You were out as soon as we laid down. I think we both fell asleep pretty fast actually." His reply calmed me down a little.

"Oh,okay. That's good. I didnt want to anything. I mean! It's not like I'm saying you're bad,you're probably good-just- I'm only 18 and-"

"I get it!" He shushed me and smiled. "I would never take advantage of you."

I nodded and shut up.

"Quick question...?" I asked.

"Sure!" He said.

"Why,uh,are you..shirtless?" I stuttered. "Because I mean,it's not bad..just wondering."

"Oh haha. Your room was too hot for me,I usually take off my shirt before going to bed. It's a habit,sorry hah." He seemed so much more relaxed.I didn't mind it because he made me relax a little too.

"God I'm hungry." I say,holding my stomach.

Matt laughed,"Sounds like a Personal Problem." I grabbed his hand and ran downstairs,dragging him.

"Morning,Momma!" I kissed her cheek.

"Morning,Sweetie..Oh,good morning,Matthew!" She hugged him.

"Now,y'all didn't DO anything you'll both regret did you?" She said winking at me.

"No,Mom" I frowned. She always makes me feel embarrassed. Matt found this funny and laughed silently. I elbowed him,and he grabbed his side in pain.

We got cereal. We both love the limited edition of Captain Crunch's Peanut butter Crunch. It's my favorite,and just so happens to be Matt's too!

"Oh,Sweetie," My mom called Matt, "I called your mother. Don't ask me how I got her number,I just do. BUT.." She continued, "..she said that you can stay for a while if you need to."

I smiled,as did everyone else.

Matt and I had gotten dress (NOT IN THE SAME ROOM THOUGH) and had raced down to the park on two of my Penny boards. We tied I think,we started to race at first but ended up right next to each other,talking.

We got there and sat down on the curb.

"Wanna hear a fun fact!?" He exclaimed.

"Sure!" I laughed.

"It takes 22.5 months for an elephant to deliver its baby after pregnancy." He smiled proudly.

"What?" I couldn't stop laughing. I was so confused. "That must hurt like shit!" I yelled.

"Good thing we wouldn't know.." He said with a relieved face.

We laughed and talked about all sorts of stuff from pregnant elephants, to cereal, to how popcorn pops,and the last thing we talked about was crushes. I already knew he liked me. He just didn't know if I liked him. I didn't even know if I liked him. I mean,I DO,just I don't know how to explain my feelings.

I leaned in and kissed him,and he kissed back. I know now,I NEED to be with him. There were sparks. Like never before. We lasted about 5/6 minutes until we broke apart.

"I'm sorry!" I quickly said.

"Don't be,I liked it." He said smiling. He leaned back in and we kissed even more.

This was magical...
