Chapter 8: Waiting for you to Make a Move

"San, are you positive about this?" Asked Quinn.

"Yes!" I responded excitedly

"You know it will take like 3 weeks to heal?"

"Yes"

"As long as you're sure"

"I am!" I replied excitedly.

"Okay, now that I've gotten that out of the way" Quinn said. She took a deep breath and then laughed", Oh my god I can't believe you're going to get a belly button ring!" She laughed pretending to wipe a tear, "it's just, I never thought I'd see the day"

"I always wanted one but was too scared. Why not do it now right?" I laughed, "Plus my mom would never see it."

"Yeah. Oh man. Mama Lopez will kill me! I mean I'm already bringing you back a brand new person. I nearly caused you to drown, introduced you to the beauty of strong wine, encouraged you to make out with a girl and now to top it off a piercing." She said all of that in one breath, "when did you become such a wild girl Lopez?" she joked. I thought back to this past weekend and the events from yesterday. She's right, in just a matter of a month I've managed to drink more than I've ever thought possible, do the most crazy things and even started dating a woman. At this, I smiled.

Yesterday As soon as I walked into the room I was questioned non-stop.

"So how was the kiss? I'm guessing you finally told her?" She asked while pacing, "Sheesh with that kiss you better have told her."

"Quinn!" I yelled finally getting her attention. I giggled as she stopped pacing and finally took a seat on her bed. "Yes I told her. Well more like blurted it out during lunch. I think she already figured it out, but it felt nice to finally tell her." I rambled.

"Finally! So..."

"She wants to go on another date."

"Wait when was the first one?"

"Today." I responded dreamily.

"Wow you two work fast."

"Well technically we spent 1 month leading up to this point, so it doesn't feel that way. It kind of feels like we've done the awkward dating part already. " I shrugged. My mind kept replaying the few kisses we shared. I was definitely going against everything I believe or was forced to believe after all of these years, but for once it didn't matter. How could anyone try and take this feeling from me? This feeling is one I can't really describe. It's a mixture of feeling giddy and excited; awake and aware. It's like instead of just being alive, I'm finally breathing. Together these feelings are so intense that part of me is terrified of what will happen when the high goes away. I've kissed so many different guys in the past and never have I once felt this way. I had started thinking that feelings were overrated.

"Wow San, you are so smitten" she said. "You have this drunk look on your face." She laughed.

"I feel drunk." I answered. At the same time both of our phones vibrated.

"Wow I guess Rachel got tired of texting us separately." I responded as I opened my home page. "Did you get the What's App invite?"

"Yep." Answered Quinn. Within a few seconds we both entered the private chat room. I saw Quinn typing on her phone, but no message popped up.

A few minutes later, there was a loud knock on the door.

"Hey Rach!" I greeted as she entered.
