The New Boy

Our first kiss

When we got inside, James took off his shoes and looked at me with a face like he was waiting for me to say something, "What?" I said not understanding why he was looking at me like that.

"What did he tell you?" He asked with a worried face.

"Who?" I said not wanting to talk about what James's dad told me.

"My dad, obviously".

"Oh nothing, just to take care of you" I lied, why? I still don't know.

We went to my room and started working on my homework, which was surprisingly fun with someone smart, but also it didn't take long before we were done, and we still had some time left before James's dad would come to pick him up, so we started playing on my computer, my eyes were shinning while I was showing him the best MMORPG that had been keeping me awake most school nights.

Everything was pretty normal until James, who was pretty quiet while I was presenting him the game, said: "You look so cute talking about this".

My heart stopped, those words made me go totally blank, 'Why is a boy calling me cute, I think he is cute too but, we're just friends aren't we? Do friends call each other cute? Do I call him cute back? Why the fuck am I freaking out so much'.

"Ed?  Are you okay?" James asked putting his hand on top of my head and messing with my hair, "Wake up dummy".

The way he was treating me was making me feel so weird, and for a second I realized the weird feeling I had, were turning into love feelings, I wanted him to treat me like that, I wanted him to kiss me, and I was blowing up wanting to say it to him.

"I'm sorry if you didn't like me calling you cute", He said and removed his hands from my hair.

"No", I instantly held his hand and put it back on top of my head, "Don't stop"

My heart blew up, 'Why did I say that he'll think I'm a freak' I thought and slowly realized he was passing his fingers through my hair, looking in my eyes, he was making me go crazy.

"James... why are you doing this?" I said not wanting him to stop.

"I like your hair, it feels good on my hand", he kept his eyes on mine.

My heart was racing and I started thinking if he was waiting for me to do something, his hair was short and I don't usually touch people's head, but I was wondering if I should this time, maybe I was supposed to do something else?

Like he was reading my mind James grabbed my hand and took it to his cheek, I touched his face, it was warm, his blue eyes were shining at me and I started getting lost on them, but right before I could totally drift, his hands went to the back of my head, and he started pulling me in his direction, our lips finally touched as I smelled his scent, for a second I didn't move my mouth, I was stunned, then he stopped and started getting back, when I realized that I pulled my hand behind his head and kissed him, a real kiss this time, our tongues met and like that we stayed for a time that seemed endless, and I loved every second of it.
