Love Over Everything

Chapter 4-The Start of Forever

I looked over at Thomas as we walked down the block trying to get some peace. It seemed comfortable to just walk side by side not really saying much. I shyly glanced in his direction hoping to steal a glance at his features. A lot has changed since elementary he was now taller than me with broad shoulders and beautiful muscles. His face chiseled into perfection with his alarming green eyes and blondish brown hair. He had to be about 5'9 with his long legs this boy was radiating sexy. I smiled when he looked back at me smiling. "You look beautiful tonight. .. not that you don't look good all the time. " again I blushed he was having a hard time putting sentences together around me. It was cute to watch this popular guy fail at something he had experience in. "I know what you mean. . Take a breath, I won't bite". Not unless he wanted me to I told myself. "I feel like a jerk, we've gone to the same school for years and I can't picture the classes I have with you let alone who you are, I really feel you should tell me to get lost ." It seemed as if he was punishing himself or trying to make up for not knowing who I was. I sighed "what if I'd rather be out here with you? " I don't know when I started feeling bold but I grabbed his hand for good measure and stared up at him. He smiled and I was glad he had quit talking because he was really killing our moment. "I'd be the lucky but I'd make it up to you if that's what you really want" he said and we walked a little more on the sidewalk. We talked about school and the classes we had together he caught on when I told him about the after school club and laughed when he realized he'd beat up Landon the school bully for giving me the nickname maddyfatty. "I don't think the nickname was that funny" I said raising an eyebrow at him. "You weren't even fat Landon was truly just an asshole" I kept silent not liking the way the conversation turned. "Come on Madison it's not like the name stuck and if anyone was thinking that they're not anymore. I let his hand go. . That nickname hurt and my self esteem really took the hit. "Maddyfatty..." I heard him call behind me I turned to look at him leaning against the tree staring at my ass with the goofiest grin on his face and gave him the finger. I heard him walking behind me still chanting the name making me speed up,  a quick glance behind me again told me he was talking about my ass. I wanted to be mad but he was really appraising me and it was making me blush. He grabbed my hand pulling me into him "I don't think it's a bad nickname after all" he whispered in my ear "I actually think it's the perfect name for what you got going on back there and if I can be honest, it's the best view of my life". I giggled and placed my arms around his neck. He turned something so ugly into something that made me feel so sexy how could I be mad at that? "That nickname still sucks but I don't mind it coming from you. " I whispered back biting his neck before letting his hand go. He stayed a step behind me chanting the nickname all the way back to the party. I think I'm in love it's no looking back from tonight.
