We remained holding hands for the rest of the game, even when we had to stand up to cheer. Like I said, if I fall, he falls with me and vice versa.

I felt like I was over the moon and no, it wasn't all because of the alcohol. I think I was high on Jace. Yeah, that's exactly what it was.

The game soon ended and the score was 4-3 to Arsenal and as content as I felt sitting down next to the most incredible person in my life, my butt felt sore and my throat hurt from all the shouting. Not only that, it was getting cold and I could see grey clouds.

I had to let go of his hand to put my coat on, Jace too was unzipping his bag to take out his hoodie.

I laughed.

"What?" He cocked his eyebrow.

I stared at his hoodie, it was the one he brought when we went shopping. It was a grey Minnie and Micky mouse hooded sweatshirt.

He looked down at his attire which I was currently staring at and he blushed.

I rolled my eyes, slung his backpack over my shoulder and started walking out the aisle in the crowd of drunk fans who were all trying to exit the stadium. It was close to impossible given the fact there were thousands of people who were all exhausted and rowdy.

I kind of lost Jace on the way but I could just meet him at the front or near his car. He's old enough.

I smiled just thinking about him. What did this mean for us exactly and what did he think of his crush now?

I had this doubt at the back of my mind about Jace not liking me, either not at all or not as much as I liked him. It just made my stomach churn and my mood to drop instantly.

I was stood near the exit, trying to spot him through the crowds of fans. I finally did spot him, the dude with a grey hoodie. The hood on it was up and it was funny to see that the it actually had floppy mouse ears on top.

I ran to him and jumped on his back. My legs wrapped around his torso and he held them in place.

"Having a good birthday?" He asked in a weird kind of cooing tone and turned his head.

"A very good birthday." I grinned and spoke in the same voice. He puckered his lips and my eyes widened, was he really about to kiss me or was it just an illusion of my mind?

I kissed him anyway.

I noticed that the girls who were sat next to us were nearby, grinning and staring. All except Ashley of course.

The kind one walked up to us, her hood over her head and bits of red hair sticking out. She smiled and Jace greeted her, addressing her by the name 'Lori'.

"I've always wanted gay best friends. Let's be best friends." She joked.

"But-" Jace started but got cut off.

"Come on, we have to go." Ashley sighed and dragged Lori away from us. Well I guess that's the last time I'll ever see her.

"To Narnia!" I yelled and stuck one hand out in front of me and tightened the grip of my other one around Jace's chest.

Jace chuckled, obviously amused by my more... Nerdy side. I think he's rubbed off on me.

He started walking and I bounced at each step he took given the fact the ground here was very uneven.

It was just like when we were at the shopping centre together. All he needed to do now was pin me on the floor and sit on my stomach.

We can't forget the bag of pretzels too. God, I love those. Anybody who doesn't is not sane.
