School ends and after I tell Zee what happened with Haley, Jonah and I head to the game. I never really thought I'd be this into baseball but I'm kinda getting really competitive. Jonah and I sit side by side towards the front of the stadium in our Yankees tops that he got for us-super cute
Jo: yes! Home run!
B: yeah!
The games been great. I haven't been thinking about Daniel or the kiss this whole time, I'm really enjoying being here with Jonah
B:ugh c'mon! he should have made a clear shot there
Jo: yeah, maybe he got distracted?
B: I don't see how
Jo: me too, you weren't on the field
B: smooth Mr Jonah Marais Roth Frantizich real smooth
I say trying to hide my blushing
Jo: haha my full names oofff, y'know you're so cute when you talk all sporty
B: I'm cute? Have you seen yourself sir?
Jo: haha
He says placing his hand on my thigh. I rest my head on his shoulder
Commentator: alrighty folks that's half time. You know what that means...it's kiss cam time!
B: what's a kiss cam?
I say lifting my head off his shoulder but sliding my hand in his instead
Jo: it's when those big screens over there randomly zoom up on 2 people in the crowd and the crowd cheers them on to kiss
B: sounds lame
Jo: haha, only you
He says putting his arm around my shoulder and running his fingers through my hair
JONAH'S POV:
I can't even imagine how happy I'll be if the kiss cam lands on us...like that would ever happen though
Commentator: alright the kiss cam has made its pick on...the 2 young high school students over there! You guys look like America's next power couple!
All heads turn to face us as I finally realize that we are the ones chosen! I look over at Billie, she sits up removing her head from my shoulder and her hand from mine. She's clearly uncomfortable and hesitant...I don't know if I should kiss her or not? Would it mess things up? I try to speak to her but I'm in such shock that no words are coming out. I don't want to pressure her into anything.We both sit there frozen as the crowd cheers
Commentator: c'mon you two the game is starting soon
Oh well that's just great. How did things go from such a cute moment of cuddling and watching the game to such awkwardness
Crowd: KISS! KISS! KISS!
BILLIE'S POV:
What! This can't be happening! I want nothing more then to kiss him but how would Daniel and the others react to this! But the crowd and everything...ugh! He's also looking hesitant. But if we are gonna have our first kiss then I don't want it to be forced...I want it to be a special moment. I see him gesture no to the camera...wait why would he do that unless...he doesn't want to kiss me? Of course he doesn't, I knew it was too good to be true...why would he want to kiss someone like me?
I'm too broken to love
I'm not beautiful
I never have been and never will be
Crowd: NOOOO! BOO!
Commentator: no kiss there,well you saw it yourself folks. Anyway...let the game begin!
Jo: sorry abou-
B: please excuse me
I say interrupting him and getting up from my seat.I need to get out of here, I don't want him to see me cry especially over something like him not wanting to kiss me
Jo: wha-what's wrong...did I do something wrong?
He grabs my hand obviously realizing my sudden mood change
B: I just-I
I say releasing my hand from his
Jo: Billie? Bil are you okay?
I push past him and make my way through the crowd and outside the stadium. I don't dare look back at him but out the corner of my eye I can see him try to follow me. I run faster until I'm outside the stadium and I sit down on a little bench by the picnic area to clear my thoughts. I bury my head in my hands and I try so hard not to cry...I didn't realize that I'd fallen so hard for this boy. I look up and let the breeze hit my face, I admire the beautiful garden like spot that I'm sitting in outside the stadium
Jo: Billie? Billie! Please talk to me, what's wrong?
He says panting while running up to me
B: nothing. I'm fine
I say refusing to make eye contact with him
He sits down next to me and grabs my hands. For the first time ever I pull them away from his. I can see the shocked expression on his face
Jo: you're clearly not okay, please just tell what I did wrong so that I can fix this. It's killing me seeing you like this
B: it's just...
I trail off not knowing how to put how I feel into words
Jo: is it about earlier and the kiss cam and everything?
B: yeah
Jo: that thing was stupid anyway just forget about it
B: stupid huh? I see
I say making no effort to hide the hurt
Jo: what do you mean?
B: why did you tell them no?
Jo: well...I thought you were...y'know...uncomfortable with the whole thing and I didn't want to put us in an awkward position or anything.
B: so kissing me would be uncomfortable and awkward...got it
Jo: no that's not what I said! Okay...do you want the real truth why I told them no?
B:well yeah
Jo: if you must know, I wanted to kiss you so much at that moment and I still want to but...I didn't want our first kiss to be forced like that. I want it to be a special moment and that just didn't seem like it. I know I sound like a real cheese ball but that's what I want
He says looking down. I'm speechless as I search for words. I can't believe I acted like such a brat when he was doing such a sweet thing for me
B: no you don't sound like a cheese ball because that's how I wanted it too
Jo: you wanted to kiss me?
He says looking stunned
B: maybe
I say stupidly
Jo: so then...why were you so mad?
B: because...because I thought you didn't want to kiss me so I guess I got a little upset
I say looking down embarrassed at the sheepish act
Jo: well if you must know, I've been dreaming about kissing you and making you mine for as long as I can remember
He says grabbing my hand and I can't stop myself from giggling like a silly middle schooler
Jo: dang you cute, come here
I fall into his arms and we just sit there holding each other in silence, both enjoying the moment. Jonah gently pushes my chin up and he looks down at me
JONAHS POV:
It's not true, tell me I've been lied to? Is this actually happening right now! She wants to kiss me of all people! I look around at our surroundings, a beautiful garden like sitting outside the baseball stadium...what more can I ask for? If this isn't a god sent sign that I should kiss her right now then I don't know what is.I have to do it...I might not get this chance ever again
Jo: I can't even describe how happy you make me. I've never loved someone so much and I know you have a ton of other boys chasing after you, I mean how could they not but I need you to know that I don't just want you for your body or your looks, I want you because you complete me, you make my life better by just being in it. Your smile brightens up my whole day. I love you so much in ways that I can't even describe
B: aw jo...
Jo: I love you angel
B: I-I..
BILLIE'S POV:
I feel his face getting closer to mine and for some odd reason it feełs so right...almost normal
Jo: I'd run, walk and even learn to fly just to see you smile-remember that
He whispers and I smile at the memory
I lift my head up and I'm greeted by his lips on mine.The hairs on the back of my neck stick up.It's such a magical moment and I want it to last forever. Goosebumps explode across my face but his hot breath against my skin manages to calm them down. I feel so safe, for a moment I forget everything about work and I'm taken into this magical journey...almost a different world
