Monses POV
The time had reached around 6pm, and monse spent her entire day watching the office and Disney movies, "wow...today was fucking boring" she whispered to herself, laughing slightly.
She got out of bed, grabbing some fresh clothes, ready to take a shower. She took off her T-shirt, and Walked over to her closet in her sports bra and shorts, looking for a baggy night shirt when she heard footsteps. She quickly grabbed her bat that she hid in her room and turned towards the door. She heard a knock on her window, she quickly spun back around to see Cesar!Cesar?? Why was he here??
"She dropped the bat and covered her chest with a small towel laying on her bed.
Cesar stood at the windows entrance, "hey ...can I please come in..? We need to talk"
Monse bit her lip looking down... Uhg why is no such a hard thing to say to him. He made her so soft, and that was pretty hard to do. She walked over to the window and opened it, allowing him to come in. She avoided looking him in the eyes, "whatsup?" She said innocently, as she made her way back to the closet, looking for a night shirt.
Cesar followed in, sitting on her bed. "I just wanted to make sure everything was alright between us, I value you, a lot.." Cesar realized he was saying too much and tried to cover himself "AS a friend of course.." he chuckled. "We haven't talked since Thursday"
Monse turned around to face Cesar "everything's fine..." She Walked over to him and sat down " I value you too, which is why I want you to experience the best" she smiled slightly. "And I'm sorry for making you feel stressed, I know you can't just quit a gang" she laughed. Cesar felt relieved, just hearing her laugh, and seeing her beautiful smile was enough to make him go crazy. He looked down at his hands "so..we are all good?" Monse grabbed his hand to stop it from fidgeting, "yes, we are all good" she said looking into his eyes. Uhg his eyes...gorgeous and mysterious. "Good!" Cesar said as he stood up, he accidentally knocked over her backpack that she prepared for writing camp, all her papers fell out. "Oh god, I'm sorry" Cesar spoke quietly as he leaned down to grab everything. Monse leaned down and helped him. "It's ok! Don't worry about it, maybe I put too much stuff in here anyway."Cesar grabbed a pencil case to give back to Monse, when out fell a small little bracelet. It was blue, with 7 green beads. Cesar smiled, "you...you still have it?" He asked
Monse stopped stuffing things back into her bag and looked over at the very petit bracelet Cesar was holding, "oh, uh yeah" she laughed, kind of embarrassed
"I made this for you in 3rd grade" he said examining it.
"Yeah, you said it was a good luck charm for me, so I wore it every soccer game I had. It worked...so I kept it" she smiled
"Wow, that's so..sweet" he expressed with a soft look on his face
Monse looked at him, aw he was such a softie to me...why? Uhggg
Monse laughed and continued to put things away, Cesar handed back her backpack and sat back down. "You were always good at soccer, you didn't need my luck" he joked.
Monse sat down next to him again and said "yeah, because you taught me how to play!" She laughed. They both sat there is silence...but not bad silence, reminiscing silence. "So we having a little party here tomorrow?" Cesar said breaking the quietness
Monse nodded "yeah.."
"what's wrong?" Cesar said with concern
"It's just im not ready to go, I don't want to leave you...guys" she covered herself
Cesar raised his eyebrows and smirked "it's ok, it's only for a few weeks then we will be all together again" he reassured her, putting his hand on her shoulder.
Omg...he was touching her. Monses heart was racing, she swallowed hard
And smiled "i know" she said. Once again, it was quiet. Cesar got up and sighed, "I guess ima go now, I'll text you Tom..."
"WAIT" Monse said interrupting
Cesar stood confused, "what is it?"
Monse stood and got closer to him. What IS SHE DOING? She grabbed his hand while Cesar stayed still, "I...just want to be honest with you...real honesty"
Monses mind was going crazy, SHE BETTER STOP THIS INSTANT!
"I..."...she stumbled... "I like you cesar...."
Cesar's eyes went wide, now this time HIS heart was the one about to jump from his chest.. "what do you mean?" He asked
"I really like you cesar diaz....I always have. You mean so much to me....which is why I care, a little too much. I wouldn't know what I'd do if I lost you that's why I want you to be safe" she said quite fast, realizing that she just exposed herself , but she didn't care. She was in too deep and wasn't going back. She promised herself that she would tell cesar how she felt before she left to camp, and now this summers mood is all depending on his response.
Cesar looked flustered "Monse, I.."
before Cesar could finish his sentence Monse grabbed him closer to her and started kissing him. She didn't want to hear his answer, she was to afraid...her mind was flipping and turning...going absolutely nuts. WHATS GOTTEN INTO HER??
Cesar stood for a moment, before he started kissing her back. He couldn't believe it, she made the first move! He put his arms around her waist and kept her close.
They were shortly interrupted by Cesar's phone call.
He quickly picked up the phone
"Hello? ....yes yes I have it.....now? .....shit....uh yeah I got it...ok.....ok bye* He hung up while Monse stood holding his hand.
"I gotta go do something for my brother," he spoke
"Ok...but before you go...I suppose you feel the same way?" Monse said softly based on the way he kissed her.
Cesar smiled "Monse...I've always loved you...did you see me making any other girls good luck charms?" He laughed
Monse smirked "no.."
"Exactly.." he said as he kissed her on the cheek and went back out the way he came in, softly waving towards her.
Monse waved back, then closed the window....she walked over to her bed and sat down. "Oh my fucking-.....what just happened." Monse felt like this was a dream, that was WAY too easy...she then continued her routine, showering and going to bed, but that night, camp wasn't on her mind. Cesar was.
